What are the new regulations for annual inspection of household vehicles?
1 Answers
In 2021, for non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding vans) that are over 6 years but under 10 years old, the inspection frequency has been adjusted from once a year to once every two years. At the 6th and 8th years, the vehicle must undergo an on-site inspection. For private vehicles over 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies: once a year for vehicles aged 10 to 15 years, and once every six months for vehicles over 15 years old. The consequences of overdue vehicle annual inspection are as follows: 1. Vehicles that fail to undergo annual inspection on time are not allowed on the road; 2. Driving a vehicle without timely annual inspection will result in 3 penalty points and a fine; 3. If an accident occurs involving a vehicle that has not undergone inspection, the party involved will bear full or primary responsibility, and the insurance company will not compensate; 4. Driving without timely annual inspection is considered illegal driving and may result in vehicle impoundment; 5. According to the "Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," vehicles that fail to obtain a valid inspection mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection period will be forcibly scrapped.
