Using cold air is more effective because when the outside temperature is higher or lower than the inside temperature, moisture will form on the windows. Alternatively, you can also open the windows to make the fog disappear. Here are the correct methods to remove fog from the windows: 1. Use the air conditioning cold air to defog: The most effective way to deal with foggy windows is to turn on the air conditioning (A/C) cooling, activate the external circulation, set the air direction to blow towards the windshield, and adjust to the maximum wind speed. 2. The dry cold air will blow directly onto the windshield, creating a 'air film' on the surface that prevents water vapor from condensing on the glass.

Does the six-year exemption from vehicle inspection include the sixth year?

The six-year exemption from vehicle inspection does not include the sixth year. The six-year exemption does not mean no inspection is required for six years; it only means the vehicle does not need to go through the inspection line. For new vehicles, the inspection decal must be renewed every two years during the first six years. The sixth year is still part of the initial six-year period, so the inspection decal must be renewed, but the vehicle does not need to undergo the inspection line test. Starting from the seventh year, the vehicle must undergo an annual inspection line test. Inspection regulations for vehicles not eligible for the six-year exemption: 1. Operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first five years; after five years, every six months. 2. Trucks and large or medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected annually within the first ten years; after ten years, every six months. 3. Small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected every two years within the first six years; after six years, annually; after fifteen years, every six months.
