1 Answers
The 7-seater Wuling Hongguang falls under the category of vehicles exempt from inspection for 6 years as stipulated by national regulations. According to the new inspection regulations implemented on November 20, 2020, new 7-seater vehicles within 6 years require an inspection every two years, but do not need to undergo on-site testing. Under these new measures, the scope of motor vehicle exemption from inspection has been expanded. In addition to the existing exemption for non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles with 6 seats or fewer within 6 years, non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles (excluding vans) with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are now also included in the exemption. For non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles (excluding vans) older than 6 years but less than 10 years, the inspection frequency has been adjusted from once a year to once every two years. However, if the vehicle is involved in a fatal accident or is illegally modified and penalized, it must still undergo inspection according to the original schedule. Following the implementation of these new measures by the Public Security Bureau, the application requirements for medium and large truck and bus driver's licenses have been optimized. The minimum age for applying for a large bus or tractor license has been lowered from 26 and 24 years old to 22 years old, while the maximum age for applying for medium and large truck and bus licenses has been raised from 50 to 60 years old. Additionally, the interval for license upgrades has been shortened. For applicants with no record of full penalty points in the corresponding scoring cycle, the required duration of holding a large truck license before applying for a large bus license has been reduced from at least 5 years to 3 years, and the duration for applying for a tractor or medium bus license has been shortened from at least 3 years to 2 years.
