The solution for an expired vehicle inspection is to promptly complete the procedures for a supplementary inspection. The time regulations for annual inspections are as follows: 1. For passenger transport vehicles within 5 years, inspect once per year; for those over 5 years, inspect once every 6 months. 2. For cargo vehicles and large or medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles within 10 years, inspect once per year; for those over 10 years, inspect once every 6 months. 3. For non-passenger transport vehicles within 6 years, two inspections can be exempted; for those over 6 years, inspect once per year; for those over 15 years, inspect once every 6 months. The items for annual inspection include: 1. Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and their auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and effective; whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether the main assemblies have been replaced; and whether they match the initial inspection records. 2. Test whether the vehicle's braking performance, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with relevant regulations. 3. Check whether the vehicle has been modified, remodeled, or altered; whether the driving license, license plate, and all vehicle registration records match the actual condition of the vehicle. 4. Inspect whether the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate characters printed on the vehicle are damaged, altered, or unclear, and whether they need replacement.

Three Must-Have Insurances for Private Cars in 2021?

Private cars must purchase Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance (CTALI), Third-Party Liability Insurance, and Vehicle Damage Insurance. CTALI has the following two characteristics: From a legislative perspective, it is a legally mandatory insurance: According to legal procedures, all motor vehicle owners or managers must purchase CTALI. Article 5 of the 'Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law' stipulates CTALI as a mandatory requirement for obtaining vehicle license plates and registration certificates—no insurance, no driving. From a societal perspective, it serves as a social management tool: CTALI was established to address the frequent social hazards of traffic accidents. The effective compensation for personal and property losses caused by traffic accidents requires a stable source of funding. The unpredictable nature of traffic accidents means individuals cannot promptly and effectively respond to the sudden risks they pose.
