If your vehicle inspection has expired and needs an annual inspection, you can drive directly to the inspection station. If a supplementary inspection is required, the vehicle owner must personally submit a written application for supplementary inspection to the traffic police department and promptly take the vehicle to the inspection station for the annual check. Additionally, if the inspection is overdue, you need to contact a traffic officer on the road or visit the traffic police station to first obtain an overdue penalty ticket, which involves a 3-point deduction and a fine. Then, take the overdue penalty ticket to the inspection station for the required tests. Below are the precautions for vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection: 1. Accident Liability: For any traffic accidents caused by a vehicle that has not undergone the annual inspection on time, the involved party will bear full or primary responsibility, and the insurance company will not be liable. This is because the insurance policy specifies that vehicles with expired inspections are among the objects for which claims are denied. 2. Mandatory Scrapping: According to the 'Regulations on the Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles,' if a motor vehicle fails to obtain an inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of its inspection validity period, it will be mandatorily scrapped.
