Temporary license plate vehicles can install dash cams. Here is relevant information about dash cams: Definition: A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle operation. After installation, it can document the entire driving process through video and audio, providing evidence for traffic accidents. Functions: It safeguards drivers' legal rights. In cases of collisions with pedestrians crossing the road or cyclists and motorcyclists, drivers might face extortion attempts. Having a dash cam allows drivers to provide valid evidence for themselves.

Since childhood, I've been fascinated with car safety. Installing a dashcam on a temporary-plate vehicle is absolutely no problem—it's an incredibly practical auxiliary tool that can record driving processes to prevent accident disputes. The ideal installation spots are at the top of the windshield or next to the rearview mirror, ensuring no obstruction of vision while clearly capturing footage of temporary plate usage. Opting for a high-definition dashcam is more reliable, especially one with night vision, to avoid poor visibility in low-light conditions. Installing it during the temporary plate period also allows you to incidentally record scenic views during trips, and you can continue using it directly after getting permanent plates—convenient and safe. I recommend all beginners install one early to familiarize themselves with its operation for smoother use later.

As an experienced driver who has been driving for many years, I can tell you that installing a dashcam with temporary license plates is completely legal. It's just a regular electronic device that doesn't interfere with the vehicle's registration number. Just make sure not to place it too low when installing to avoid blocking the temporary plate numbers. I always do it this way myself and have never had any issues, such as using suction cups or adhesive hooks to fix it on the windshield. Safety first—if anything happens, it can provide evidence. There might be minor differences in different regions, but generally, there's no need to worry. Install it early to develop good habits and drive with more peace of mind.

When I got my car with temporary plates, I immediately bought a dashcam online and installed it myself. It was simple: positioned in the upper corner of the windshield, providing clear and convenient recording. The law doesn’t prohibit this, so temporary plates can still capture driving details. Installation is easy using the included adhesive or mount—no hassle. Don’t worry about complexity; even beginners can try it with good results. Just remember to check the angle to avoid obstructing your view.

What model is keyis?

keyis is not a car model, but a brand of steering wheels specifically designed for competitive racing. Many professional drivers modify their cars with this steering wheel for track driving. It is a quick-release steering wheel made for racing cars. Since steering wheel modifications are universal, any steering wheel that fits the base can be installed. The method for modifying the steering wheel: first, remove the original steering wheel, disconnect the wiring, and finally install the modified steering wheel. Traffic laws do not prohibit modifying the steering wheel, and other modifications like suspension and brakes are also allowed without legal restrictions. However, it is advised not to modify the steering wheel as the modified version lacks features like a horn and airbag, which can impact driving safety.

What are the reasons why the key of a manual transmission car cannot be pulled out?

The reasons why the key of a manual transmission car cannot be pulled out are: 1. The ignition switch is faulty or the steering wheel is stuck to the left or right, blocking the locking tongue of the ignition switch; 2. The steering wheel was not returned to its proper position when parking, causing abnormal locking of the steering wheel. The solutions are: 1. Check if there are any obstructions in the gear slot and remove them; 2. Start the car, shift the gear again to ensure it is fully returned to its position, and then the key can be pulled out. A manual transmission (MT) requires the driver to manually shift the gear lever to change the gear meshing device inside the transmission, thereby altering the gear ratio to achieve speed variation. Its working principle: By using the shift fork to change the transmission ratio (gear ratio) of the meshing gears, the driving torque is adjusted to suit different operating conditions.

Can I Claim Insurance for a Cracked Windshield?

You can claim insurance for a cracked windshield, but only if you have purchased the separate glass breakage insurance. The insurance company will then compensate according to the terms of the contract. Additionally, if the vehicle owner has purchased comprehensive car insurance but not the glass insurance, and the windshield is damaged due to a traffic accident with other parts of the vehicle also affected, the insurance company is required to cover the compensation. The separate glass breakage insurance is an additional coverage under car insurance, which covers damages only to the windshield and window glass (excluding headlights and mirror glass). For vehicles insured with this coverage, if the glass is broken independently, the insurer will calculate the compensation based on the actual loss.

What to Do When the Car Battery Burns Out?

Solutions for a burnt car battery: 1. Remove the battery, charge it once with a charger, clean the rust at the connection points, and reinstall the battery; 2. Use a multimeter to measure the contact resistance of the battery terminals. If it exceeds 100 milliohms, the contact resistance is too high—either replace or clean the terminals. If not, the battery must be replaced. Reasons for a burnt car battery include: 1. Short circuit: The car has many complex electronic components and circuits. A short circuit can damage these components and also cause the battery to burn out; 2. Overcharging: Most battery damage is caused by prolonged overcharging; 3. Electrolyte loss: The battery contains electrolyte. Leakage indicates the need for immediate replacement to prevent damage to other circuits; 4. Complete discharge: Repeated and prolonged complete discharges accelerate battery aging and shorten its lifespan.
