Why do U.S. cars not need annual inspections, but China has to do regular annual inspections?
In recent years, due to the rapid development of China's economy, the number of private cars has increased dramatically, and China's private cars have gradually entered thousands of households.
At the same time, many car owners have also noticed that compared with the United States, domestic private cars have to do an annual inspection every year, which will undoubtedly cause a lot of trouble and costs, causing great attention from all walks of life.
Why is it that in our country, private cars are subject to "regular annual inspections", while in the United States, vehicles are basically not inspected every year? Or is there no safety problem with American cars at all?
1. Why is there no annual vehicle inspection abroad?
In fact, countries with relatively advanced automobile production, such as Germany and the United States, will not conduct annual motor vehicle inspections, which has a lot to do with the laws and regulations of each country.
In countries that do not require vehicle inspections, they have a very good vehicle management system and requirements for vehicle production.
Therefore, if you want to meet the specified requirements for the cars you sell, you need to have a very high set of safety and environmental requirements, including energy efficiency, emissions, safety, etc.
Compared with the above-mentioned countries, the domestic first start is relatively late, therefore, the relevant laws and regulations are not perfect.
The reason why there is no car inspection in foreign countries is because their system is relatively sound, and on the other hand, it is also because their private car owners maintain and maintain their vehicles very well.
For example, in the United States, local car companies are a complete industrial chain, which can be said to be a complete industrial chain.
In this way, when the vehicle has a problem or overhaul, the user can quickly find the corresponding repair location and get professional repair and maintenance.
In addition, due to the continuous development of vehicle production technology, fault detection (OBD) on vehicles is gradually becoming more and more widely adopted.
The system can monitor various operating indicators of the car in real time, and give alarms in time when abnormal is detected.
With this device, the likelihood of more breakdowns in the car is greatly reduced, so that the owner of the car does not have to go through it as often.
2. Why should China conduct an inspection once a year?
The annual inspection of the state has a lot to do with the current policy of the country and the national conditions of the country.
First of all, it is necessary to understand the significance of automobile inspection, which is to ensure that the car driven on the road can meet the requirements of driving, and avoid traffic accidents caused by car breakdown or aging and other reasons.
Once a year, the brake system, lighting system, engine, etc. of the car can be inspected in an all-round way to ensure the safety of the car in use.
Because the country's economic development is too fast, so during this time, the management of automobile production and other fields is not very good, and in order to "return to the cost", most Chinese consumers will use cars, resulting in the wear and aging of auto parts, which affects the safety of cars.
Through the routine detection of the vehicle, some old parts can be detected and replaced, and some small faults can be prevented from causing serious accidents, so as to provide an effective protection for the driving safety of the highway.
In addition, the exhaust of the car can also be inspected through regular car inspections to ensure that the emissions of the car meet the standards stipulated by the state and reduce the impact on the environment.
3. Reform of China's annual inspection system for motor vehicles.
Although the "regular car inspection" is to protect the rights and interests of consumers, its complicated procedures still cause headaches for many people.
Due to the long time taken by conventional car inspection, the testing standards are different, the most important thing is that the cost is very high, private users need to spend a lot of time to test, coupled with the increase in gasoline and the increase in car maintenance costs, "regular car inspection" has gradually become an inevitable "annoyance".
Therefore, it is urgent to reform the vehicle inspection system.
To fundamentally solve this problem, it is necessary to increase the supervision of automobile repair enterprises, so that they can change from "regular annual inspection" to "normal vehicle inspection".
In addition, we should also increase the education and training of car owners, improve their safety awareness, and train them in the maintenance and inspection technology of motor vehicles, and finally realize the unification of motor vehicle inspection, and increase the supervision of manufacturers and relevant departments to ensure the safety of automobiles.
Although the annual motor vehicle inspection systems in China and the United States are very different, they both aim to ensure the safety of driving.
China's motor vehicle market is becoming more and more perfect, and the annual inspection of motor vehicles will become more and more scientific and reasonable in the future.
At the same time, whether from the safety of oneself or others, or from the guarantee of smooth roads and good external conditions, we must take the initiative to combine with the vehicle inspection work, take the problem of vehicle inspection seriously, improve their understanding of car maintenance, ensure that the safety and environmental protection level of the car meet the requirements, and take responsibility for the personal safety of themselves and others.
