How often should a car be inspected after six years?
2 Answers
Small private cars must be inspected once every two years within the first six years, once every year from six to fifteen years, and once every six months after fifteen years. Even with the implementation of new regulations, the inspection cycle for private cars has not changed. The trial policy only exempts new cars within six years from on-site inspections, but owners still need to apply for an inspection sticker every two years. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspections: 1. Annual inspection refers to the safety inspection of a car conducted every year or every two years, including a comprehensive check of components such as the horn, brakes, axle weight, chassis, ignition system, lighting system, exhaust system, and license plate installation. 2. Annual inspection means a routine review conducted on a yearly basis. The term is often used in daily life for items like meal tickets or shopping membership cards, whereas 'annual inspection' typically refers to formal checks such as those for certain IC cards.
I've been driving my car for almost eight years now, so I'm quite experienced with this. For the first six years of a new car, you don't need to go to the inspection station - just apply for the inspection label online every two years, which is quite convenient. But after six years, you have to visit the vehicle inspection station every two years for checks, including basic items like lights, brakes, and emissions. To be honest, it felt troublesome at first, but I got used to it. I always prepare my car in advance before the inspection, such as replacing lights and checking the brakes, so it passes in one go, saving both money and time. Don't delay until it's overdue - the fines are high and it causes unnecessary hassle. After ten years, you'll need to inspect it annually, so I'm trying my best to maintain my car's condition now - safety first.
