What should I do if my vehicle is delayed? ——Analysis of hot topics across the Internet in the past 10 days
Recently, discussions about overdue vehicle annual inspections (commonly known as "delayed inspections") have become a hot topic on social platforms and car enthusiast communities. Many car owners fail to have their vehicles inspected on time due to negligence or special circumstances, and face the risk of being fined, deducted points or even having their vehicles impounded. This article combines popular content on the Internet in the past 10 days to sort out response plans and precautions for you.
1. Consequences of delayed vehicle review
According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law", vehicles that have not passed the annual inspection on the road will face the following penalties:
| Violations | Penalty standards | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Within 1 month overdue | Warning or fine of NT$200 | Article 90 of the Road Traffic Law |
| 1-3 months overdue | 200 yuan fine + 1 point deduction | Article 16 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Law |
| Overdue for more than 3 months | 500-2000 yuan fine + 3 points deduction | Article 78 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" |
2. 5 steps to deal with delayed review
1.Stop driving immediately: The vehicle that has been delayed for review is not legally qualified to be on the road. If you continue to drive, your vehicle may be forcibly impounded.
2.Dealing with traffic violations: All unprocessed violation records must be processed before the annual review can be processed.
3.Buy compulsory traffic insurance: Make sure the compulsory traffic insurance is within the validity period (some areas require early renewal).
4.Make an Appointment at a Testing Station: Make an appointment through the traffic control 12123 APP or the public account of the local testing station.
5.Reissue annual review: Bring your driving license, compulsory traffic insurance policy, and original ID card of the vehicle owner to apply.
| Materials required | Things to note |
|---|---|
| Original motor vehicle driving license | No alteration or damage required |
| Valid compulsory insurance policy | Electronic policy needs to be printed |
| Car owner's ID card | A power of attorney is required for non-car owners to act as agents |
| Vehicle violation certificate | Need to show that fines have been paid |
3. Special situation handling plan
1.Overdue during the epidemic: Some cities have introduced extension policies (for example, Shenzhen allows a 45-day extension), so you need to pay attention to local traffic control notices.
2.Vehicle in the field: Off-site annual inspection has been implemented across the country, but you need to apply for commissioned inspection at Traffic Management 12123 in advance.
3.Modified vehicles: Illegal modifications must be restored to their original state, otherwise they will fail the test.
4. Hot Q&A (high-frequency questions within 10 days)
Q: Will the insurance compensate me for an accident involving a delayed vehicle?
A: Compulsory traffic insurance still requires compensation, but commercial insurance companies may refuse compensation (depending on the terms of the contract).
Q: How to deal with being caught and delayed by the traffic police?
A: Truthfully explaining the situation and showing a replacement reservation voucher can reduce the penalty (recognized in some regions).
Q: How long does it take for a delayed trial to be forcibly cancelled?
A: The vehicle that has not been inspected annually for 3 consecutive inspection cycles (about 3 years for a small car) will be forcibly scrapped.
5. Practical skills to prevent delayed review
• Set a mobile calendar reminder (1 month before the annual review is due)
• Follow the local traffic police WeChat official account to get push notifications
• Use apps such as "Che300" to bind vehicle information for automatic reminders
• Vehicles applying for "six-year inspection exemption" still need to apply for inspection marks every 2 years
Conclusion:Annual vehicle inspection is an important measure to ensure road traffic safety. If a delay in review has occurred, please immediately follow the procedures to avoid more serious consequences. It is recommended that car owners develop the habit of regularly checking the validity period of their vehicle certificates to ensure legal and compliant use of the vehicle.
