Because it can be done online. You can apply online by logging into the DMV website and submitting the relevant materials. Annual inspection regulations: In 2021, the DMV's new regulations state that starting from September 1st, the annual inspection process has been readjusted, and it will no longer be necessary to visit the DMV to collect the inspection certificate. The new regulations indicate that new cars within six years do not require an annual inspection, nor do they need to visit the DMV to collect the inspection certificate. The DMV states that as long as you log into the DMV website, complete the information according to your details, and follow the steps for review to obtain the inspection certificate, the relevant department will mail the required materials or the inspection certificate to the address specified by the vehicle owner. Applicable scope: This only applies to new car owners who need to obtain an inspection certificate from the DMV within six years. However, owners of cars older than six years still need to undergo annual inspections.

Should the Tire Pressure Be the Same for Front and Rear Wheels?

Front and rear tire pressures are different. Since the engine is located at the front, the front tires require higher pressure. However, the difference between front and rear tire pressures should not be too significant. For specific standards, refer to the vehicle's tire pressure guidelines. The relationship between tire pressure and vehicle off-road capability: 1. A vehicle's off-road capability depends on multiple factors, with tires being a crucial element, including tread pattern, diameter, and pressure. 2. For the same tire, the required pressure varies depending on the road surface. 3. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, essentially the 'blood pressure' of the vehicle. The level of tire pressure plays a vital role in the vehicle's performance and power.
