How often should motorcycles undergo inspection?

[RyleeDella]

Motorcycles should be inspected once every 2 years within the first 4 years; after exceeding 4 years, they should be inspected annually. New regulations on vehicle inspection intervals: New vehicles require inspection once every 2 years for the first 6 years, and then annually thereafter. The inspection date corresponds to the month of the vehicle's registration. Additionally, if the scheduled time is inconvenient, inspections can be conducted up to 3 months in advance. Early inspection does not affect the timing of the next inspection. Considering most people's habits, congestion usually occurs at the end of the month, so it is recommended to prepare early at the beginning of the month. Documents required for vehicle inspection: Vehicle license, compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate (copy), inspector's ID card, triangular warning sign, and fire extinguisher.

I've been riding motorcycles and always remember to get them inspected annually to ensure vehicle safety. Last year, I forgot to go to the inspection station, and while riding, the brakes failed, nearly causing an accident—fortunately, everything turned out fine. Since then, I've made sure to get inspections on time. The inspection usually covers lights, brakes, tires, and the emission system, and the whole process takes about half an hour, typically done at the DMV or a professional inspection station. New vehicles might require fewer inspections in the first two years, but older ones must be inspected every year to ensure peace of mind on the road. Regular inspections help avoid fines, which can be a few hundred yuan plus penalty points, and may also affect insurance claims. Don’t see it as a hassle—safety comes first. Riding a motorcycle is inherently risky, and uninspected vehicles pose even greater hazards.

A friend of mine bought a motorcycle but knew nothing about vehicle maintenance when he first started riding. He ignored the annual inspection requirement. The next year, his bike developed warning light issues and broke down on the road. When he went to the DMV, he learned that motorcycles must be inspected annually. New bikes might be exempt for the first two years after registration, but inspections are mandatory every year thereafter. The inspection process is simple: bring the vehicle registration and ride to the inspection station, where staff will check critical safety components and overall condition. Since then, he's been getting his bike inspected on time every year, saving himself a lot of trouble and repair costs. Vehicle inspections are legally required—failure to comply may result in fines, penalty points, or even temporary vehicle impoundment in serious cases.

According to traffic regulations, motorcycles must undergo annual inspections to ensure compliance with safety standards. The inspection covers key points such as braking efficiency, lighting conditions, and overall vehicle structure. The process involves the owner bringing the vehicle to a designated inspection station, submitting the required documents, and undergoing the check. Newly registered vehicles may have a lower inspection frequency in the initial years, such as every two years for the first two years, but the general rule is an annual inspection. Failure to comply with the inspection schedule may result in fines or penalty points, aiming to reduce road accidents. Vehicle inspections help maintain public traffic safety, and everyone should develop the habit of regular checks.
