Will 3 points deducted from an A1 driver's license affect the annual inspection?

If a driver's license has no points deducted, it can be exempted from the annual inspection. However, if 3 points are deducted, the annual inspection is required, along with attending study sessions and exams during the inspection. For A2 license holders, if points are deducted within a scoring cycle, they must report to the traffic management department of the public security bureau within 30 days after the scoring cycle ends to undergo the inspection. The inspection includes: handling of road traffic violations and accident situations; physical condition; points deducted for road traffic violations and participation in study sessions and exams after accumulating 12 points. Annual inspection precautions: During the annual inspection, the vehicle management office will check the vehicle's lights. If the lights are found to be too dim or too bright, the vehicle will be deemed unqualified and will not pass the inspection. If the lights are too dim, check the wiring and bulbs for aging, and replace relevant parts if necessary. If xenon headlights have been installed, it is recommended to revert to the original headlights before the inspection to pass the test.

I've been driving with an A1 driver's license for over a decade, and getting 3 points deducted really isn't something to worry too much about. The annual inspection mainly checks the vehicle condition and license validity period. As long as your accumulated points don't reach 12, you can generally pass smoothly. I usually use the Traffic Management 12123 APP to check my points - when I see the points increase, it reminds me to drive more steadily and avoid speeding or running red lights. Remember, point deductions only affect your safety record. The annual inspection doesn't directly check your points unless you've committed too many violations and are required to attend remedial courses. Overall, maintaining good habits is fundamental - don't let small issues pile up into big troubles.

I just got my A1 driver's license recently and was caught speeding while driving, resulting in a three-point deduction. I felt quite uneasy, worrying it might affect my annual inspection. Later, I asked a traffic management friend who said this point deduction is usually not a problem, as the annual inspection only focuses on the vehicle itself and insurance status. As long as you regularly handle traffic violations and don't let your points exceed the warning line, it's fine. I recommend that beginners study traffic rules more and use mobile apps to monitor point changes. The annual inspection is just a routine check; a three-point deduction won't cause trouble, but make sure not to make similar mistakes again. Safety first—don't create hidden dangers for yourself.

Deducted 3 points? No big deal! As a long-time A1 driver, I know the annual inspection process is straightforward: it mainly checks vehicle safety parameters and whether the driver's license has expired. The penalty point system operates independently—low points won't affect the inspection, only high cumulative points may trigger remedial courses. Don't speculate; checking points is easy: just use the Traffic Management 12123 app or visit a service window. Remember, drive responsibly daily and avoid distracted driving. If your vehicle passes the inspection, don't worry—the key is keeping it well-maintained.

I drive a vehicle requiring an A1 license for my daily commute, and getting 3 points deducted doesn't affect the annual inspection at all. The annual inspection mainly checks things like lights and tires, while the points are just recorded in the system—no big deal as long as they don't exceed the limit. I make it a habit to check my points monthly using the traffic management app to keep them within a safe range. Also, make sure to settle all violations before the annual inspection to avoid hassle. New drivers, don't worry—it's no big deal. The key is to practice more and violate less. The app even reminds you of the due date, which is super convenient.

What Causes Steering Wheel Shaking at High Speeds?

Reasons for steering wheel shaking at high speeds: 1. Poor tire dynamic balance: During driving, if a tire suffers a strong local impact, it may cause the balance weights to fall off or become damaged, affecting the tire's dynamic balance; 2. Significant differences in tire pressure among the four tires: When there is a large difference in tire pressure among the four tires, especially between the left and right tires, the car body will experience noticeable bumps and the steering wheel will shake significantly at high speeds; 3. Poor wheel alignment: When the wheel alignment angles deviate significantly, the car body may drift or shake at high speeds, and it can also lead to uneven tire wear, accelerating tire wear and shortening the tire's service life.

Where Are the Clutch and Brake Located?

The clutch is on the left side, near the driver's door, while the brake is to the right of the clutch. The accelerator is the rightmost pedal, positioned closer to the passenger side. When driving, avoid resting your left foot on the clutch pedal, as this may prevent the clutch disc from fully engaging, leading to excessive wear. The clutch is situated between the engine and the transmission, with the clutch pressure plate mounted on the engine flywheel. Pressing the clutch pedal disengages the clutch, while releasing it engages the clutch. The clutch disc has internal splines that secure a driveshaft, which serves as the transmission's input shaft. When engaged, the clutch disc is pressed tightly by springs on the pressure plate. The braking system is located near the wheels, with the brake caliper and brake disc visible through the wheel rim. When the brake pedal is pressed, pistons inside the caliper push the brake pads to clamp the brake disc.
