Does a car in its sixth year require an on-site annual inspection?
1 Answers
A car in its sixth year requires an on-site annual inspection. Vehicles that fail the inspection must be repaired within a specified period. If they still fail after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate their license plates and prohibit further driving. Vehicles that do not undergo the inspection without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to drive on the road or transfer ownership. Vehicles that meet the scrapping conditions or exceed the prescribed service life will not be inspected, and their license plates will be revoked, their records deleted, and they will be scrapped. Annual inspection content: Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and their accessories are clean, complete, and functional; whether the paint surface is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether the main assemblies have been replaced and whether they match the initial inspection records. Test whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the "Technical Conditions for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles." Check whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or altered; whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle records match the actual condition of the vehicle and whether any changes have been approved and documented. Check whether the license plates, driving license, and enlarged license plate markings on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or illegible, and whether they need replacement. For large vehicles, check whether the unit name or the name of the street, township, or town where the vehicle is located and the seating capacity in the driver's compartment are printed in Chinese imitation Song font on both sides of the door as required. For trucks, check whether the rear tailgate (including the trailer's rear tailgate) is printed with the vehicle number enlarged 2-3 times as required. For individually or jointly owned vehicles, check whether the word "individual" is printed on both sides of the door. The printing must be clear, and unit codes or other patterns are not allowed (special cases require approval from the vehicle management office).
