In general, vehicle annual inspections cannot be conducted in most places during National Day. However, some regions may offer inspection services during the holiday to accommodate working individuals. It is advisable to check with the local vehicle management office for specific arrangements. You will need to visit the local Vehicle Management Office and the vehicle inspection center for an online inspection. During the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays, official business is usually suspended. If your vehicle inspection is due soon, it is recommended to plan ahead. Locations for Vehicle Inspection: Vehicle inspection requires visits to both the Vehicle Management Office and the inspection station. The Vehicle Management Office handles applications, replacements, renewals, and inspections of motor vehicle driver's licenses, as well as other related services for vehicles and drivers. The inspection station, on the other hand, conducts comprehensive performance tests on motor vehicles. While the two are related, their functions are distinct. Vehicles eligible for the exemption inspection label must meet the following conditions: Non-commercial passenger cars (including large passenger cars) and other small and mini passenger vehicles registered within 6 years; Excluding vans, 7-seater, and larger vehicles; Excluding vehicles that have not been registered for over 4 years since the date of manufacture.

As someone who frequently handles vehicle procedures for friends, I can say with certainty that vehicle inspection departments will definitely be closed during the National Day holiday. Like all government institutions, they follow the national statutory holidays and won't open at all during the seven-day holiday. I remember last year before National Day, my neighbor was in a hurry to get his vehicle inspected but delayed until October 3rd to go to the DMV, only to find it closed and get a notice posted. I suggest you get it done before September 20th, two weeks in advance is safest, otherwise you might queue all day. Actually, some inspection stations operate on weekends normally, so there's no need to rush before the long holiday. By the way, you can now check local holiday announcements on the 12123 APP, make sure to check before heading out to avoid a wasted trip.

How Long Can Toothpaste on Rearview Mirrors Repel Rainwater?

Applying toothpaste on rearview mirrors can repel rainwater for about one to two hours. The effectiveness of toothpaste in preventing rain and other rain prevention methods are as follows: Effectiveness of Toothpaste in Preventing Rain: Toothpaste applied to rearview mirrors can repel rain because it disrupts the surface tension of water. When water hits the mirror, it forms a thin film, maintaining the clarity of the mirror and effectively preventing fogging. Other Rain Prevention Methods: In addition to applying toothpaste, waterproof films can be installed on rearview mirrors. These films have excellent hydrophobic properties, effectively preventing rainwater from adhering. High-quality films not only repel water but also offer anti-fog, anti-dust, and anti-fingerprint functions, ensuring the mirror remains clear.

Which insurance companies offer motorcycle insurance?

Legitimate insurance companies all provide motorcycle insurance, such as Ping An Insurance and China Life Insurance. Compulsory traffic insurance is mandatory for motorcycles: Motorcycles are classified as motor vehicles, and traffic laws require motor vehicles to have compulsory traffic insurance. Otherwise, if stopped by the police, it can be particularly troublesome, and without insurance, the vehicle cannot pass inspection. When purchasing insurance, you only need to provide your ID card and fill out the policy form. Points to note when buying insurance: However, commercial insurance for motorcycles is very difficult to obtain, as most insurance companies are reluctant to provide commercial insurance for motorcycles. Even for compulsory traffic insurance, some insurance companies often refuse to process it, citing a lack of policy forms. Therefore, you can choose to directly handle delegated insurance through the vehicle management office.

What Type of Oil Should a Four-Stroke Gasoline Engine Use?

For a four-stroke gasoline engine, simply choose a well-known brand of all-season oil such as 10W-30 (or 10W-40) with a grade of SF or higher. Definition of a Four-Stroke Engine: A four-stroke engine refers to an engine where the crankshaft completes two full rotations, undergoing four strokes—intake, compression, power, and exhaust—to complete one working cycle. In contrast, a two-stroke engine only requires one rotation of the crankshaft and two strokes to complete a working cycle. Points to Consider When Choosing Engine Oil: It is particularly important to note: When purchasing, clearly inform the seller that you need four-stroke gasoline engine oil to avoid accidentally buying two-stroke engine oil or diesel engine oil.
