Here are the adjustment standards for rearview mirrors: 1. Interior rearview mirror: Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off your right ear in the reflection. This means that under normal driving conditions, you won't see yourself in the interior rearview mirror. For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon at the center of the mirror. 2. For the left side mirror: Adjust the up and down positions to place the distant horizon at the center, and adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. 3. For the right side mirror: Since the driver's seat is on the left, it's harder for the driver to see the right side of the car. Additionally, due to the need for roadside parking, when adjusting the up and down positions of the right side mirror, the ground area should be larger, occupying about 2/3 of the mirror's area. The left and right positions should also be adjusted so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the area.

Does a 4-year-old car require an annual inspection?

According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," non-commercial vehicles that are 4 years old do not require an annual inspection, while commercial vehicles do. The documents needed for the annual inspection include the vehicle's license, a valid compulsory traffic insurance policy, the owner's ID card, and all traffic violation records must be cleared in advance. Non-commercial vehicles are exempt from on-site inspections within 6 years, only requiring an inspection mark application every two years. For vehicles over 6 years but less than 10 years old, inspections are required every two years, meaning private cars only need two on-site inspections within 10 years, at the 6th and 8th years. Private cars aged 10-15 years require an annual inspection, while those over 15 years old require inspections every six months. Commercial passenger vehicles require an annual inspection within 5 years and every six months thereafter. Trucks and large/medium non-commercial passenger vehicles require an annual inspection within 10 years and every six months thereafter. Motorcycles require an inspection every two years within 4 years and annually thereafter. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the main items of vehicle annual inspection include: Appearance inspection: Mainly checks vehicle lights, body appearance, suspension, sunroof, and tires. It verifies if the lights are functioning properly, if there are any color changes to the body, and if the suspension has been modified. Emission test: Checks if the vehicle's tailpipe emissions meet national standards during high-speed operation. On-site inspection: Primarily examines the vehicle's braking system, headlights, horn, and chassis. Violation check: All traffic violation records must be cleared before the annual inspection to pass. The annual inspection can be conducted up to 90 days in advance but must not be overdue. According to the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the consequences of overdue inspections are as follows: Vehicles that fail to undergo the annual inspection on time are not allowed on the road. Driving an overdue vehicle results in a 3-point penalty and a 200 RMB fine. In case of a traffic accident involving an uninspected vehicle, the owner bears full or primary responsibility, and the insurance company will not compensate. Driving an overdue vehicle is considered illegal and may lead to vehicle impoundment.
