Is the Vehicle Annual Inspection Sticker No Longer Required to be Displayed?
1 Answers
Nowadays, the vehicle annual inspection labels have been digitized, eliminating the need to display them on the vehicle. Following the launch of electronic insurance policies, insurance companies will issue policyholders 'electronic proof documents in the form of data messages that certify the motor vehicle insurance contract relationship,' known as electronic insurance policies. These serve as digital replacements for paper insurance policies and endorsements, carrying the same legal validity as their paper counterparts. Key considerations during annual inspection: 1. The inspection includes an exhaust emission test to check for compliance, focusing on the oxygen sensor and catalytic converter. Their optimal operating temperature ranges between 400 to 800 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is recommended that vehicle owners warm up their vehicles in the external inspection area before undergoing the exhaust emission test to increase the pass rate. 2. Prior to the annual inspection, owners should clean the vehicle body thoroughly. Pre-cleaning the vehicle's body, engine compartment, and undercarriage facilitates the inspection process for the personnel and enhances the likelihood of passing the inspection. 3. The vehicle management office will inspect the vehicle's lighting. Lights that are found to be either too dim or too bright will be deemed non-compliant, resulting in failure to pass the inspection. It is advisable to restore the original headlight condition before the annual inspection to ensure compliance.
