What are the consequences of not inspecting a motorcycle?
1 Answers
Failure to inspect a motorcycle will result in fines and 3 demerit points. In the event of a traffic accident, the insurance company may refuse to compensate. Below are the specific details regarding motorcycle inspections: 1. Annual inspection regulations: Motorcycles are exempt from inspection within 6 years of initial registration. For motorcycles older than 6 years (inclusive), an annual inspection is required as per regulations. If a motorcycle fails the annual inspection, it must be repaired within a specified period. If it still fails after the deadline, the vehicle management office will confiscate its license plates and prohibit further operation. Motorcycles that do not undergo annual inspection without valid reasons or fail the inspection are not allowed on roads and cannot be transferred to another jurisdiction. 2. Scrapping regulations: The service life of a motorcycle is 13 years, after which it must be mandatorily scrapped. Additionally, if a motorcycle fails to undergo annual inspection for 3 consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of its inspection validity period, it must also be mandatorily scrapped.
