Private car annual inspection requires the original vehicle license and the driver's original ID card. Here are additional details: a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy. Note: If a company needs to handle the inspection, they must also provide a company-issued authorization letter with an official seal. Currently, passenger vehicles with fewer than 6 seats require inspection every 2 years, but it can be done online. Only in the 6th year is it necessary to go to the vehicle management office for inspection. For other types of vehicles, the inspection is still required every 2 years at the vehicle management office. Important notes: All the above documents must be valid. For cars driven by fixed personnel, the vehicle license and driver's license are usually kept together, and they are essential for driving, so they are unlikely to be forgotten. However, some cities have started implementing electronic driver's licenses, but it is still safer to remember to bring the original driver's license.

Hey buddy, you're asking about annual inspection materials? I know this like the back of my hand! You'll need the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's ID card. If you're handling it for someone else, you'll also need a power of attorney and the agent's ID. Never forget the original vehicle license - that's crucial. The compulsory traffic insurance policy must be paper format; if you have an electronic one, remember to print it in advance. Oh, and the vehicle and vessel tax certificate is usually printed together with the compulsory insurance. The vehicle itself needs preparation too: the warning triangle must be placed in the trunk for easy inspection, and all lights and brakes must be functioning properly. I suggest checking the local DMV website on your phone beforehand - some places may require a fire extinguisher or emissions test report. All traffic violations must be cleared in advance, otherwise your trip will be wasted. It's best to bring some cash just in case, although most places accept mobile payments now.

Dude, going for the annual inspection? The required materials are super simple: original ID card + photocopy, bring the vehicle license. Just print out the compulsory insurance policy, no need for a separate vehicle and vessel tax receipt. Remember to have a triangular warning sign in the car; without it, they won't inspect. If you've modified the headlights or applied dark tint, you'll need to restore them beforehand—mismatched photos with the vehicle license would be a disaster. Before heading out, check the 12123 app to confirm no traffic violations; having a violation record means instant failure. If it's a company car, bring a photocopy of the business license with the company seal. Better toss all the materials into a document bag to avoid frantic searching through your bag.

Here are the documents required for the annual inspection: original and photocopy of ID card, vehicle license, paper copy of compulsory traffic insurance (print the electronic policy if applicable), and vehicle and vessel tax certificate. A triangular warning sign must be equipped in the car, which will be checked during the exhaust emission test. If the car has modifications like a roof rack, remember to bring the modification certificate. With all materials prepared, it can be completed on-site in half an hour, much faster than queuing at a hospital. The traffic management office is least crowded right at 8:30 a.m. when it opens, making it the most hassle-free time to go. Oh, and don't forget to wash your car beforehand—it puts the inspectors in a better mood when checking the exterior.

How Many Questions Are There in the Driving License Subject 1 Exam?

The driving license subject 1 exam consists of 100 questions, according to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses." It includes single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam covers foundational driving theory, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting area. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen before entering the exam room. Store personal belongings in lockers before entering. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, find your seat, and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect your score report and sign it—failure to sign renders it invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you skip the retake or fail it, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subjects 2 and 3 allow only five attempts, with a 10-day waiting period between retakes. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject 2 is the field driving skills test. Subject 3 includes two components: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, commonly referred to as Subject 4, though this term is not officially recognized in the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123.

Is the Malibu's fuel consumption high?

The Malibu has relatively high fuel consumption, averaging around 8 liters per 100 kilometers. The following introduces the reasons for high fuel consumption: Insufficient tire inflation: If you notice that the vehicle's coasting distance is significantly shortened during driving, you should check whether the tire pressure meets the standard. Insufficient tire inflation will also increase fuel consumption. Severe tire wear: Check the degree of tire wear. If the tires are severely worn, slipping will frequently occur, increasing fuel consumption. Abnormal wheel rotation: If abnormal noises are detected from the wheels during driving or starting, promptly check the bearings and braking system for faults. Abnormal wheel rotation will affect the vehicle's speed and increase fuel consumption.
