Does Having a Car Without Annual Inspection Affect the Annual Inspection of Other Cars?

Having a car without annual inspection does not affect the annual inspection of other cars. Annual Vehicle Inspection: Refers to the annual inspection of vehicles that have already obtained official license plates and registration certificates, conducted in accordance with the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Purpose of Annual Inspection: The aim is to check the main technical conditions of the vehicle, encourage enhanced maintenance and upkeep, ensure the vehicle is always in good condition, and guarantee driving safety. Annual Inspection Time: Vehicles can undergo the inspection application within three months before the annual inspection date. It is best to do it two months or more in advance, rather than waiting until just a few days before the inspection deadline. Additionally, before the 10th of each month, the workload at inspection stations is relatively lighter, making it a good opportunity to avoid queues. The number of vehicles increases from mid-month, and the end of the month is the peak period.
As a long-time car owner, I've seen many people worry about whether having an un-inspected vehicle under their name would affect the inspection of their other cars. From my experience, vehicle inspections are entirely vehicle-specific, and the authorities handle them separately by license plate, so it won't directly impact other vehicles. For example, if you own two cars and one hasn't passed inspection, when you go to inspect the other, the system's check on the owner's credit might not be relevant. However, it's important to note that if the uninspected car is left unattended, it could lead to fines or penalty points, which might affect the owner's overall status, such as insurance rates or personal credit records. I believe the most reliable approach is to promptly address any uninspected vehicles to avoid unnecessary trouble. After all, inspections aren't just about complying with the law—they also ensure that the car is safe to drive. Like my neighbor who once forgot to inspect one car and got fined, but the other car passed inspection as usual. Remember, each car is independent, but the owner is responsible for managing everything comprehensively.
