How many times does a car need to be inspected per year after 10 years?

After 10 years, a car needs to be inspected once per year. Here are some things to pay attention to during the inspection: 1. Keep the vehicle clean and tidy. To leave a good first impression on the inspector, it is recommended to wash the car as thoroughly as possible before the inspection, giving it a fresh look. Small scratches on the vehicle will also be less noticeable, making it easier for the inspector to pass the car. 2. Ensure all traffic violations are settled. If there are unresolved traffic violations on your vehicle, the staff will not proceed with the annual inspection, which can cause significant delays. Make sure to settle all violations before the inspection. 3. Prepare the necessary items to bring. Before the inspection, you need to prepare the vehicle's registration certificate, compulsory traffic insurance policy, the driver's ID card, as well as some essential items such as a fire extinguisher, warning triangle, reflective vest, and other emergency equipment. If these items are not prepared, you will need to purchase them at designated locations.
Private cars over ten years old are much more hassle-free now! The previous requirement for a bi-annual inspection used to be a headache, but after last year's policy adjustment, a nationwide unified annual inspection was implemented. The specific process involves first settling any traffic violations, then bringing the vehicle registration certificate and compulsory traffic insurance policy to the testing station to queue up. The inspection items mainly include exterior checks, chassis testing, light intensity, and exhaust emissions, and now also involve connecting to a computer to check OBD data. Here's a reminder: if you've previously modified rims or headlights, you might run into issues, so it's advisable to restore them to factory settings in advance. Also, make sure the compulsory traffic insurance is valid, or you'll make a trip for nothing. If a car fails the inspection for three consecutive cycles, it will be forcibly scrapped—so don't get lazy!
