Motor vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection for over one year will be automatically deregistered in the computer system. Motor vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection for over two years may have their paper records destroyed or archived. For vehicles that have exceeded the inspection deadline, bring relevant documents such as the vehicle license to the traffic police vehicle management office to complete the annual inspection procedures.

My motorcycle had been out of inspection for over a year. I remember first going to the local traffic police station to handle the overdue fines, as penalties accumulate for missed inspections. I brought essential documents like my ID card, vehicle license, and vehicle registration certificate—it's best to make copies in advance. Then I went straight to the DMV counter, filled out a deregistration application form, and the staff checked the vehicle's status. If the vehicle is still usable but the inspection has expired, scrapping it directly is more convenient. In my case, I chose to scrap it, so I brought the scrapping certificate to apply for deregistration. The whole process took half a day, and I finally got the deregistration certificate. After deregistering, there's no need to worry about being caught driving it illegally, and it helps avoid unnecessary expenses. I recommend not delaying—the sooner you deregister, the easier it is, to prevent fines from piling up and affecting other matters.

Handling the deregistration of a motorcycle after overdue inspection, I have summarized the key steps: First, verify all traffic fines and pay them off, otherwise the DMV won't process the request. Second, prepare original personal documents such as ID card, vehicle registration certificate, and driving license. Third, visit the DMV, submit the materials on-site, and explain the vehicle's condition; if the vehicle is damaged or no longer in use, a scrap recycling certificate is required to simplify the process. The entire procedure requires patience for queuing and may take one to two hours. Special reminder: complete documents are necessary for a one-time approval to avoid multiple trips. After deregistration, the vehicle quota is released, preventing future legal liabilities, which is also environmentally friendly as old vehicles won't take up space. In short, following the rules isn't difficult—the key lies in careful preparation.

After my motorcycle failed the annual inspection, I quickly went through the deregistration process to avoid any trouble. First, I went to the traffic police to settle any outstanding fines and clear the records. Then, I took my ID and vehicle documents to the DMV to fill out the deregistration application. If you no longer need the vehicle, contact a scrap yard in advance to get the necessary proof. Once completed, you'll receive the deregistration certificate, giving you peace of mind. The process is straightforward and efficient—the sooner you handle it, the less hassle you'll have, avoiding potential fines or vehicle impoundment. The whole thing can be done in a day, and it went smoothly for me.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2019 Lamando 280 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the 2019 Lamando 280 is 50 liters, as officially announced. Owners of the 2019 Lamando 280 can also verify this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The 2019 Lamando 280 requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 5.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 909 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level is accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. In actual refueling situations, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified fuel tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This extra space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity.

Do You Need to Keep Pressing the Brake for Auto Start-Stop?

Correct operation requires pressing the brake for the start-stop function to activate, allowing the engine to automatically shut off. When the brake is released, the start-stop system will restart the engine. After auto start-stop, an automatic transmission car remains in the D gear, and releasing the brake is sufficient. For manual transmission cars, pressing the clutch will start the vehicle, followed by shifting into first gear to begin moving. About Auto Start-Stop: 1. Usage Specifications: The function still requires the driver to follow proper driving practices to some extent. For example, the auto start-stop will not activate if the seatbelt is not fastened. Conversely, if the seatbelt is unfastened after stopping, the engine will not restart even if the brake is released or the accelerator is pressed. 2. Working Principle: When the car stops due to traffic congestion or at an intersection, and the driver presses the brake pedal to stop and shift gears, the Start/Stop system automatically detects that the engine is idling, no gear is engaged, the wheel speed sensors of the anti-lock system show zero, and the electronic battery sensor indicates sufficient energy for the next start, the engine will automatically stop rotating.

Can I Apply for a Total Loss Claim if My Car is Flooded?

If a car is flooded, you cannot apply for a total loss claim. If a vehicle suffers damage due to flooding or water submersion, as long as the engine is not affected, other damages can be claimed through the vehicle damage insurance. However, if the engine is flooded and you do not have special engine loss insurance, the engine damage will not be covered. Additional Information: 1. Partial Loss: If a part of the insured vehicle is damaged and the insured amount reaches the actual value at the time of underwriting, regardless of whether the insured amount is lower than the actual value at the time of the incident, partial loss will be compensated based on the actual repair costs. If the insured amount of the vehicle is lower than the actual value at the time of underwriting, partial loss will be compensated proportionally based on the ratio of the insured amount to the actual value at the time of the incident. 2. Insurance Limit: The maximum compensation amount for vehicle damage is limited to the insured amount.
