If there is no full score record (12 points) within the first 6-year validity period, a 10-year validity driver's license can be issued (if there is a 12-point record, only a 6-year validity license can be renewed). You must wait until the 10-year validity period expires without any full score record, otherwise it will be changed to a 6-year license. After that, you can use it until the age of 60. After 60 years old, an annual inspection is required, and a medical examination certificate must be submitted. According to Article 47 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security): "The validity periods of motor vehicle driver's licenses are 6 years, 10 years, and long-term. Materials required for driver's license renewal: "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form" (must be signed by the applicant). Identity proof of the motor vehicle driver (original and copy). Motor vehicle driver's license. Medical condition certificate issued by a county-level or above medical institution or a military regiment-level or above medical institution. Four photos of the motor vehicle driver. If an agent is entrusted to handle the renewal, the agent's identity proof and the application form jointly signed by the driver and the agent must also be submitted. The physical examination items for driver's license renewal mainly include vision and color blindness tests, as well as grip strength, squatting and standing up, blood pressure, hearing, electrocardiogram, etc. The medical examination certificate must be issued by a county-level or above medical institution or a military regiment-level or above medical institution. Notes for driver's license renewal: Before renewal, ensure that all traffic violations have been handled, fines paid, and points cleared, otherwise the vehicle management office will not issue the new license. Within 90 days before the expiration of the driver's license, you can apply for renewal at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued. If there is any scoring cycle during the validity period of the driver's license where 12 points are recorded, a longer validity license cannot be issued. If the driver's license expires within one year, the renewal process remains normal; if it expires between one and three years, the license will be canceled, but renewal can still be processed by passing the subject one exam; if it expires for more than three years, the license will be invalid and cannot be renewed.

What Causes a Motorcycle to Fail to Accelerate?

Generally, it is mostly caused by carburetor blockage, improper air-fuel mixture, excessively small valve clearance, poor spark plugs, or low-quality gasoline. Types of Motorcycles: Motorcycles, powered by gasoline engines and steered by handlebars to control the front wheel, are two or three-wheeled vehicles that are lightweight, agile, and fast. They are widely used for patrols, passenger and cargo transportation, and also serve as sports equipment. Motorcycles are categorized into street bikes, road racing motorcycles, off-road motorcycles, cruisers, touring bikes, etc. Precautions for Riding a Motorcycle: When riding in urban areas, motorcycle riders must stay highly focused and correctly judge and handle various situations. Riders should anticipate the actions of pedestrians accurately. For example, if encountering a distracted pedestrian, they should honk or use other signals from a distance to prompt the pedestrian to move aside in time, preventing sudden panic that could lead to a collision.

Is It Harmful to Drive a Car Only Once a Week?

Starting the car once a week does not cause harm. Below are the potential damages caused by prolonged inactivity of a vehicle: Oil drainage: Engine oil has a certain viscosity. When the car starts, the oil pump inside the engine immediately begins working, distributing oil to various engine components, thus not causing any harm to the engine. Only when the car is parked for an extended period, causing the oil to drain down to the oil pan, will it lead to increased engine wear. Battery discharge: A normal battery will not discharge to the point of being unable to start the car within a week, unless the battery itself has quality issues. Typically, starting the car for about half an hour will fully charge the battery, so there is no impact on the battery either. Component aging: Components such as lights, chassis, body, and electrical parts will not be damaged due to a week of inactivity. They age through continuous use and friction. Avoid parking the car in places exposed to sunlight and rain for extended periods.

What is the method to distinguish the front and back of a tire?

Tire distinguishing method: The inside and outside of the tire can be identified by the markings on the tire sidewall. The side marked 'inside' indicates the inner side, while 'outwards' indicates the outer side. Effects of incorrect tire installation: 1. Reduced grip, leading to uneven resistance on both sides; 2. Decreased braking efficiency, potentially causing vehicle drift and unstable steering; 3. Poor water drainage. Functions of tires: 1. Generate driving force, braking force, and lateral force through interaction with the road surface; 2. Bear the weight of the vehicle; 3. Provide cushioning and shock absorption. The normal tire pressure range is 2.3 to 2.8 bar. In winter, it can be appropriately increased by 0.2 bar, while in summer, it should be reduced by 0.1 bar to prevent tire blowouts.

What is the fuel consumption of Yamaha nmax155?

Yamaha nmax155 has a fuel consumption of 2.0L per 100 kilometers. Introduction: From the side view, the body lines and layers are quite rich, and the front part of the car looks quite substantial. It can accommodate a full helmet, which is very rare for small scooters, and the space utilization is very reasonable. Additional information: The main factors affecting carburetor fuel consumption include the quality of the carburetor itself, oil level, mixture ratio, oil needle, main metering hole, etc. Adjusting the carburetor can only set it to the appropriate standard, such as mixture ratio, oil level, oil needle height, etc. In addition to the carburetor, maintaining good vehicle condition and driving habits can also relatively reduce fuel consumption.

What are the reasons why a motorcycle cannot start after being parked for a month?

If a motorcycle cannot start due to a dead battery after being parked for a month, you can jump-start it using a car. Below are the solutions for a dead battery and precautions for jump-starting: Solutions for a dead battery: Both motorcycles and cars use 12V batteries, so the same voltage is compatible. If the motorcycle's battery is dead, it is best to remove the battery and charge it using a battery charger. In emergency situations, you can jump-start the battery using another vehicle. For jump-starting, you will need a rescue vehicle and two jumper cables. Precautions for jump-starting: It is important to note that during the jump-starting process, the positive and negative terminals must not come into contact, as this can cause a short circuit. Regularly check the condition of the battery during normal use, and if any issues arise, inspect them promptly.
