6-year exemption from inspection means that new vehicles do not need to undergo on-site testing, but every two years, you still need to go to the DMV to apply for the annual inspection compliance sticker, which must be affixed to the upper right corner of the windshield. One important thing to note is that not all new vehicles are eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. If you purchase a 7-seater MPV, you will have to follow the policy of on-site inspection every two years. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Expired inspection: If you fail to complete the annual inspection on time, you will not only be caught by traffic police or electronic surveillance but also face a 3-point deduction and a fine. More seriously, if you miss the inspection three times in a row, your vehicle may be subject to mandatory scrapping. Additionally, if an accident occurs while driving and the vehicle has not undergone the annual inspection on time, the insurance company will not provide compensation. 2. Determining vehicle inspection: The most straightforward method is to check the vehicle registration certificate, which will indicate the final date for applying for the annual inspection sticker. Generally, you should go to the DMV to handle it three months in advance (including the current month).

What to Do When the Car Scrapes Against a Wall?

No need to repair, as daily use will inevitably lead to scratches on the car paint from hard objects. In most cases of such damage, the scratches on the paint surface or marks left by friction with objects are already very visible. For moderate damage, where the paint has noticeably chipped off, exposing the primer (usually white in color). For severe damage, where not only the primer is exposed but the damaged area is also very large, drive directly to a 4S shop and handle it through insurance for repair.

How to Determine When the Car is 30cm from the Side Line?

Observe the distance between the right side of the vehicle body and the curb, then make adjustments. When the position of the right front door handle aligns, the distance between the vehicle body and the curb is approximately 30mm. Drive along the right side line from the middle-right position of the engine hood. At this point, the right side of the tire is about 30mm from the right side line. Align the right 15mm of the hood center with the right side line to ensure a 30mm distance, provided that the vehicle body is already basically parallel to the roadside.
