Whether a fire extinguisher is required for vehicle inspection depends on the vehicle type. Inspection requirements: According to national industry standards, passenger vehicles with more than 9 seats and hazardous goods transport vehicles must undergo fire extinguisher checks during vehicle inspections, while small passenger vehicles with 9 seats or fewer are no longer inspected. Of course, for your own safety and to pass the annual inspection smoothly, it is advisable to voluntarily purchase and place a fire extinguisher and a triangular warning sign (triangular reflectors are usually standard equipment in vehicles). Usage of fire extinguishers: Fire extinguishers must be placed in easily accessible locations while driving, such as under the driver's seat, under the front passenger seat, or inside the glove box. Fire extinguishers must not be omitted, and their condition should be checked regularly, paying attention to the expiration date. Fire extinguishers for cars are generally divided into dry powder extinguishers, which can quickly extinguish fires and ensure driving safety, making them particularly suitable for putting out engine and vehicle fires. Vehicle inspection steps: Prepare the relevant documents and address any traffic violations. Exterior inspection. Vehicle data recording. Notification of inspection results.
