After a vehicle has been in use for more than 6 years, according to the new regulations implemented in 2020, it should be inspected every two years. The new regulations introduced on November 20, 2020, expanded the scope of exempted vehicle inspections. In addition to the original exemption for non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles with fewer than 6 seats within 6 years, non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats (excluding minivans) within 6 years were also included in the exemption. For non-commercial small and micro passenger vehicles (excluding minivans) that have been in use for more than 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency was adjusted from once a year to once every two years. Additional information: 1. Article 15 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Motor vehicle safety technical inspections shall be conducted by motor vehicle safety technical inspection institutions. Motor vehicle safety technical inspection institutions shall inspect vehicles in accordance with the national motor vehicle safety technical inspection standards and bear legal responsibility for the inspection results. 2. Management: The quality and technical supervision departments are responsible for implementing metrological certification management for motor vehicle safety technical inspection institutions, calibrating motor vehicle safety technical inspection equipment, and supervising the implementation of national motor vehicle safety technical inspection standards. The motor vehicle safety technical inspection items shall be stipulated by the public security department of the State Council in conjunction with the quality and technical supervision department of the State Council.

Can a Car Charge Its Battery While Idling in Place?

Car can charge its battery while idling in place, but the electricity charged in this situation is called "floating charge," which only exists for a short time. Here is the relevant introduction about car idling: 1. Introduction: Car idling is not a speed, but refers to a working condition. When the engine is running without load, it is called idling. When the engine is running, if the accelerator pedal is completely released, the engine is in an idling state. The speed of the engine during idling is called the idling speed. The idling speed can be adjusted by changing the throttle size. Generally speaking, the best idling speed is the lowest speed at which the engine does not shake. 2. Function: Idling is to overcome the engine's own operating resistance and maintain the minimum engine speed, so as to provide convenience for the driver to drive and temporarily park in various situations. For example, when waiting for a traffic light or in a traffic jam, although the time is short, temporarily turning off the engine can bring immediate energy-saving and emission-reduction effects.
