The documents required for small car inspection include the vehicle license, the duplicate of the compulsory traffic insurance policy (i.e., the copy of the compulsory traffic insurance) within the validity period, and the triangular warning sign carried with the vehicle. The following is a detailed introduction to the annual vehicle inspection: Meaning of annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for every vehicle that has obtained an official license plate and vehicle license. It is equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety." Exemption policy: Non-operational small private passenger vehicles with 7 seats or less (including 7 seats) are exempt from on-site inspection within 6 years, which means the vehicle is exempt from on-site inspection. However, the owner still needs to go to the vehicle management office, motor vehicle registration service station, or traffic police squadron to apply for the inspection qualification mark within the specified period (generally 2 years) after passing the exhaust emission test, and then post it on the upper right corner of the vehicle's front windshield. Scope of the exemption policy: The 6-year exemption policy for non-operational passenger vehicles and other vehicles has been implemented since September 1, 2014. Vehicles registered on or after September 1, 2012, can be exempted twice; vehicles registered between September 1, 2010, and August 31, 2012, can be exempted once; vehicles registered before August 31, 2010, are still subject to the original inspection regulations for annual review.

What Happens If an Electric Car Charges for Too Long?

Charging an electric car for an extended period is considered overcharging, which can negatively impact battery lifespan. The reasons for this detrimental effect and the charging duration are as follows: Reasons for Battery Lifespan Reduction: Lead-acid batteries inevitably experience water loss during the final charging stage, especially when maintained at high voltage for prolonged periods. This leads to more severe water loss, resulting in excessively high sulfuric acid density in the battery electrolyte. This accelerates plate sulfation and grid corrosion, thereby shortening the battery's lifespan. Overcharging also causes excessive gas to flush the battery plates, leading to active material shedding and ultimately reducing the battery's service life. Charging Duration: Under normal circumstances, an electric vehicle battery typically takes about 4 hours to fully charge. If a four-wheeled electric vehicle is charged for too long, it can cause the battery temperature to rise excessively. While this may not be visibly apparent externally, the battery internals become prone to combustion or explosion. The maximum recommended charging time for an electric vehicle should not exceed 10 hours.
