A motorcycle that has been in use for 13 years should be scrapped, or undergo regular vehicle inspections after extending its service life. Article 16 of the Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that motor vehicles shall undergo safety technical inspections according to the following periods from the date of registration: 1. Passenger vehicles for operation shall be inspected once a year within 5 years; after exceeding 5 years, once every 6 months; 2. Trucks and large or medium-sized non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected once a year within 10 years; after exceeding 10 years, once every 6 months; 3. Small and mini non-operational passenger vehicles shall be inspected once every 2 years within 6 years; after exceeding 6 years, once a year; after exceeding 15 years, once every 6 months; 4. Motorcycles shall be inspected once every 2 years within 4 years; after exceeding 4 years, once a year; 5. Tractors and other motor vehicles shall be inspected once a year.

What are the gear positions of the X-Trail?

The X-Trail has gear positions marked with letters such as P, R, N, D, S, and L. The full English names for these gears are: P stands for Parking, R for Reverse, N for Neutral, D for Drive, S for Sport, L for Low, and M for Manual. Different gear combinations output varying levels of power. When the car is at different speeds, you need to "shift gears," meaning selecting different gear combinations to output power. Below is an explanation of each gear position: P Gear: Parking means "to park." It is the parking gear used when the vehicle is stationary. When you reach your destination or need to park for an extended period, shift the gear lever into this position. Note: The vehicle must be completely stopped before shifting into P gear. Shifting into P gear before the vehicle has fully stopped can damage parts of the automatic transmission. When in P gear, the wheels are mechanically locked, preventing the vehicle from moving forward or backward. Therefore, always engage P gear when parking on a slope. Additionally, during brief stops (e.g., at traffic lights), it is best not to shift into P gear to avoid severe transmission damage in case of a rear-end collision. R Gear: Reverse means "to go backward." It is the reverse gear used when backing up. To reverse, press the safety button on the gear lever and shift into R. However, ensure the vehicle is completely stopped before shifting to avoid serious transmission damage. N Gear: Neutral means "in the middle." It is also called the neutral gear. At traffic lights, you can shift into N and press the brake pedal. If the wait is long, it is advisable to engage the handbrake, allowing your foot to rest off the brake pedal. A common misconception is that shifting into N while coasting downhill or at high speeds saves fuel. This is incorrect and can damage the transmission. D Gear: Drive means "to move forward." It is the forward gear. Shifting into D and pressing the accelerator allows the vehicle to move. In this gear, the transmission automatically shifts based on speed and throttle input. At traffic lights, you can remain in D while pressing the brake. For short waits, this is fine, but prolonged idling in D can raise transmission fluid temperature and degrade its quality. S Gear: Sport means "sporty." It is the sport mode gear. In this gear, the transmission delays shifting to provide more power, typically used for overtaking. L Gear: Low means "slow speed." It is the low-speed forward gear. In this gear, the transmission stays in a low gear (equivalent to 1st gear in a manual transmission) and does not shift automatically based on speed. This gear is useful for climbing or descending steep slopes. In low gear, the drive wheels output higher torque, providing sufficient power for steep climbs. Prolonged braking on long or steep descents can overheat the brake pads, reducing braking effectiveness. Shifting into L gear uses the engine's low RPM to control the vehicle's speed, reducing the need for constant braking. M (Manual) Gear: Manual mode requires the driver to shift gears manually. Typically, pushing the lever up shifts to a higher gear, while pushing it down shifts to a lower gear. Manual mode enhances driving engagement. B (Brake) Gear: This gear is commonly found in electric and hybrid vehicles. B gear assists in charging the battery through regenerative braking and provides braking force during long descents. +/- Gears: Manual mode requires the driver to shift gears. Pushing the lever up shifts to a higher gear, while pushing it down shifts to a lower gear. Gear Selection for Different Road Conditions: Uphill: Steep slopes require high torque. Use "D-" to downshift. If power is sufficient, use "D+" to upshift and prevent engine and transmission strain. For extremely steep slopes where manual downshifting is insufficient, use S gear. Downhill: Use "D+" to shift to D2 or D3 for engine braking. Normally, 2nd or 3rd gear provides sufficient braking. For very steep slopes, use 1st gear with the brake pedal. If the vehicle accelerates uncontrollably downhill, downshift further.

What causes the coolant level warning in the Touareg?

Here are the specific reasons for the coolant level warning in the Touareg: 1. Sensor damage: The coolant level sensor is damaged, causing the coolant level warning. 2. Insufficient coolant: Lack of coolant triggers the coolant level warning. Below are some extended practices related to the coolant warning light: 1. Neutral coasting: If road conditions permit, you can drive in neutral for a while to cool down using air. 2. Check the coolant reservoir: If the level is below the minimum and no spare coolant is available, you can purchase distilled water to fill the reservoir.

Will smoking on the highway be captured by cameras?

Smoking on the highway can be captured by cameras. Here are some details about highways: Elephant signs: These serve as warnings for potential elephant crossings. Characteristics: Highways are fully enclosed and are typically marked with the letter G, similar to national highways, such as G3. Provincial highways: Provincial highways are marked with the letter S. Both national and provincial highways use white text on a green background, with national highways featuring a red horizontal bar above and provincial highways featuring a yellow decorative bar. The extension of non-safe zones often creates unexpected psychological pressure on drivers, leading to accidents.

How many points are deducted for a high-speed rear-end collision?

No points will be deducted for a high-speed rear-end collision. Below is supplementary information about emergency stopping zones and emergency lanes: Emergency stopping zone: An emergency stopping zone refers to a temporary stopping area on highways and first-class roads, designated for vehicles experiencing sudden malfunctions or other emergencies. Emergency lane: The emergency lane on a highway is adjacent to the rightmost traffic lane, including the hard shoulder, with a width of over 3 meters and an effective length of 30 meters or more, sufficient for accommodating parked vehicles. The extension of non-safe zone distances often creates unexpected psychological pressure on drivers, leading to traffic accidents.
