What does exceeding emission limits mean?
2 Answers
Exceeding emission limits means that a vehicle's exhaust emissions surpass the specified standard values. The methods for checking vehicle emission standards and the associated penalty points are as follows: Methods for checking vehicle emission standards: The vehicle's nameplate will display the complete vehicle model. Visit the Motor Vehicle Environmental Protection website, enter the fuzzy condition (complete vehicle model) in the input box on the webpage, input the correct verification code, and click 'Query' to retrieve the vehicle's relevant information, including its emission standard. Penalties for exceeding emission limits: Motor vehicles that emit pollutants exceeding the specified standards will be ordered to undergo rectification within a specified period. Failure to comply within the deadline will result in a 3-point deduction and a fine.
Last time I took my old car for the annual inspection, it failed the emissions test. The technician told me that exceeding the emission limits means the pollutants in the exhaust exceeded the standards. The government has set maximum allowable levels for harmful substances like carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. That's when I realized my lack of regular maintenance had caused the three-way catalytic converter to clog up, leading to this issue. The mechanic said older cars need special attention - too much carbon buildup or a faulty oxygen sensor can easily cause emissions to exceed standards. Driving an over-emissions vehicle causes significant pollution, and you might face fines during environmental crackdowns. Since then, I've been cleaning the fuel system every three months, and now the engine sounds much cleaner on startup.
