What needs to be done in the seventh year after the new vehicle inspection regulations?

Vehicle inspection is not required in the seventh year under the new regulations. Here is relevant information: No need to obtain inspection sticker: After the implementation of the new traffic regulations, private vehicles in their seventh year are exempt from annual inspection, so there's no need to collect an inspection sticker or undergo annual review at the vehicle management office. Inspection rules: The new regulations have optimized the inspection cycle. Building upon the six-year exemption from on-site inspections, it now only requires biennial inspections between the sixth and tenth years. Important notes: For vehicles exempt from on-site inspections within the first six years, owners still need to complete inspection procedures at the vehicle management office in the second and fourth years, just without the on-site inspection requirement.
As a new car buyer, I feel quite at ease. After the new regulations took effect, there's basically no need to worry about special annual inspection procedures in the seventh year. Last year when my car just turned six years old, I went to the inspection station for the mandatory test, which went smoothly. Now that the seventh year has arrived, I found there's nothing to do - neither an on-site inspection nor additional applications are required, because the new regulations specify that for the first ten years, only the sixth and tenth years require on-site inspections. So I can drive with peace of mind, just paying extra attention to tire and brake maintenance, regularly filling up fuel and checking lights to ensure safe driving. However, I need to remind myself to apply for the inspection-exempt sticker in advance during the eighth year to avoid delays and complications.
Having driven for many years, I've witnessed numerous policy changes, and the new regulations have simplified the annual inspection process. Indeed, there are no mandatory tasks in the seventh year. If the vehicle was inspected in the sixth year, the seventh year is carefree with no procedures to worry about. However, I'm accustomed to conducting regular checks myself, such as inspecting the brake pads and coolant before long trips, to avoid any potential issues affecting the drive. Remember, the benefit of the new regulations is saving time and hassle, but don’t neglect vehicle maintenance. After all, older cars are prone to minor issues, and timely replacement of necessary parts ensures peace of mind.
