Driver's license inspection service refers to the periodic inspection of a driver's license. The license holder must personally visit the vehicle management department with their ID card to complete the process, while also filling out the periodic inspection form and presenting their driver's license for verification. A driver's license without a record of passing the inspection does not qualify the holder to drive. For those holding a driver's license for vehicle types A, B, N, or P; or a type C license for commercial transportation; or those over 60 years of age, an annual inspection is required. For other vehicle types, the inspection is required every two years, with no physical examination needed. Below is a detailed introduction to the driver's license: 1. Overview of the driver's license: The full name of the driver's license is the motor vehicle driver's license, also known as a "driver's license," which is a certificate required by law for motor vehicle drivers. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills, and those lacking such skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive recklessly. Generally, individuals cannot drive on the road without a license. 2. Driving age: The minimum age to apply for a license for small cars, small automatic transmission cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, or light motorcycles is 18 years old, with the upper limit (previously 70 years old) now removed. For low-speed trucks, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, or wheeled self-propelled machinery, the applicant must be between 18 and 60 years old.

How long after a new car is launched will there be discounts?

Generally speaking, minor facelift models do not undergo significant adjustments but will receive upgrades in interior configurations, exterior details, etc., or introduce new models (not entirely new vehicles, but new configuration options). Additionally, some manufacturers may implement official price reductions when launching minor facelifts. Methods to determine whether a car is new include: Check the manufacturing date: The vehicle's manufacturing date should match the certificate of conformity, and it is usually difficult to alter. If the manufacturing date exceeds 15 days, it is considered an old car. Inspect the brake discs: Most small passenger vehicles today use disc brakes (at least for the front brakes), making brake disc inspection a reliable method. Typically, after driving more than 200 kilometers, the brake pads will leave noticeable marks on the brake discs. There is usually a 1-2 mm gap between the brake pads and the outer edge of the brake disc. After a certain distance is driven, a so-called "step" (very low for new cars) will form on the outer edge of the brake disc.
