No, you cannot drive with it, nor can you repair and continue using it. You must replace the license plate with a new one. The details are as follows: 1. Relevant regulations: According to the Road Traffic Safety Law, driving with a damaged motor vehicle license plate will result in an immediate deduction of 12 points. Therefore, you should only drive after obtaining a new, intact license plate. If a motor vehicle license plate or registration certificate is lost, missing, or damaged, the owner of the motor vehicle should apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered. When applying, the owner should fill out an application form and submit proof of identity. 2. Vehicle management office processing: The vehicle management office should review the submitted proofs and documents, retrieve the undamaged, lost, or damaged license plates and registration certificates, and issue a replacement registration certificate within one day of acceptance. A replacement license plate will be issued within 15 days of acceptance, with the original license plate number remaining unchanged.

What does ECO mean on a Buick car?

The ECO on a Buick refers to the car's economical driving mode function. ECO is an English abbreviation formed from the words Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). The Eco mode is further divided into active eco driving mode and non-active eco driving mode. When the ECO indicator light on the dashboard illuminates, it indicates that the vehicle's economy mode has been activated. ECO mode is categorized into active and non-active types. The difference lies in the fact that the active type has a dedicated button, allowing the driver to choose whether to enable it. When the driver presses the ECO mode switch, the dashboard indicator light immediately turns on, and the vehicle automatically begins adjusting settings such as throttle opening, transmission shift logic, and air conditioning output power. Non-active ECO mode does not have a dedicated button. When the dashboard ECO indicator light turns on, it serves merely as a reminder function. ECO automatically evaluates your driving behavior. If your current driving operation achieves the optimal fuel supply, the dashboard will simultaneously display the ECO indicator light. Most vehicles employ the active ECO driving mode, meaning they have a dedicated switch button. Therefore, ECO mode can be enabled during daily driving, except when the speed exceeds 120 km/h, during idle parking, in N/P gear, or manual mode—especially when climbing hills. In such cases, enabling ECO mode may not only fail to demonstrate its fuel-saving characteristics but also affect the vehicle's power. Additionally, ECO mode typically becomes ineffective under the following circumstances: When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 km/h, the car prioritizes speed, causing the ECO mode to automatically deactivate. During idle parking or in N/P gear and manual mode, ECO may also become ineffective. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a hill, the engine control unit prioritizes ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the ECO mode will not function.

Do I have to pay out of pocket if I have an accident after buying car insurance?

It depends on the specific situation. First, there is no such thing as full coverage in car insurance; purchasing the main insurance and a few additional coverages does not mean you have full coverage. Second, insurance is compensatory in nature, focusing on repairs rather than paying out as much as you want. There are situations where you may need to pay out of pocket, as detailed below: 1. Losses exceeding the coverage amount: Many types of car insurance have coverage limits. Except for certain coverages like collision insurance and theft insurance, which have fixed amounts based on the car's value, others such as third-party liability insurance and passenger liability insurance allow you to choose your own coverage amount. If the coverage amount you purchased is too low, resulting in the insurance payout not fully covering the losses in the event of an accident, the excess amount will definitely require the car owner to pay out of pocket. 2. Not purchasing the corresponding coverage: There are many types of car insurance, such as glass insurance and scratch insurance. If you have not purchased these types of coverage, you may not be able to claim under collision insurance for corresponding incidents. For example, if only the glass is broken and you do not have glass insurance, collision insurance will not cover the damage, leaving the car owner to pay out of pocket.

At which position can the car key be pulled out?

Each model varies, so it's necessary to refer to the specific instructions provided in the vehicle's manual for the particular model in question. The following are precautions for using car keys: 1. Note 1: Do not place it with electronic devices, as it may malfunction under magnetic interference. 2. Note 2: Avoid rough handling; the internal circuitry has weak impact resistance and is prone to damage from severe collisions. 3. Note 3: Do not leave the spare key inside the car. If lost, not only will it need to be remade, but it will also require re-matching with the car's computer system. 4. Note 4: Do not use the wrong battery. Changing the battery for a smart car key must be done with caution, as any mistake can burn out the circuit board inside the key. 5. Note 5: Avoid contact with metal objects, as this can lead to loosening and premature damage.

How to Renew an Expired Motorcycle Driver's License?

Within 90 days before the expiration of your motor vehicle driver's license, bring your ID card, driver's license, four one-inch white-background color photos, and a medical certificate (physical examination form) issued by a county-level or above medical institution (or a military medical institution at the regimental level or above) to the local vehicle management office to apply for renewal. The physical examination form can be obtained for free at the local vehicle management office. Below is more information about motor vehicle driver's licenses: 1. Note 1: Renewal must be done on time; otherwise, the license will be automatically canceled if it expires for one year. 2. Note 2: After the implementation of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" on May 1, 2004, the annual review for driver's licenses was abolished, and renewal is required every six years. However, holders of B1, B2, A1, A2, and A3 licenses must submit a physical examination form to the issuing vehicle management office every year during the issuance month of their license, while holders of other licenses do not need an annual physical examination.

What are the reasons for no response when connecting a USB flash drive to the car's USB port?

The reasons for no response when connecting a USB flash drive to the car's USB port are as follows: 1. File format: Most vehicles can only recognize music files in MP3 and WMA formats. If the music files downloaded to the USB flash drive are in an incompatible format, the vehicle may fail to read them. 2. Storage path: If the music files in the USB flash drive are stored in a path that is too deep, the vehicle may also fail to read them. The solution is to place the music files in the root directory of the USB flash drive. 3. USB flash drive issue: Some vehicles, especially older models, may not support large-capacity USB flash drives. Therefore, it is advisable not to purchase a USB flash drive with excessive capacity. 4. USB port issue: Currently, most vehicle models are equipped with USB ports designed for powering electronic devices or charging mobile phones, which may not be capable of reading data from a USB flash drive.

What is the fuel consumption of the 2021 Li ONE?

The actual measured fuel consumption of the 2021 Li ONE is 6.73L/100km. Below are the detailed specifications of the 2021 Li ONE: 1. Exterior: As it is only a mid-cycle facelift, the overall changes to the 2021 Li ONE are not significant compared to the previous model. Two new special edition body colors, Deep Green and Tech Blue, have been added. 2. Interior: The interior changes are also minimal, but the configuration upgrades are notable. Several comfort features have been added, and the seven-seat variant has been discontinued. This decision was made because 96% of owners opted for the six-seat version, which is also more practical. 3. Powertrain: The vehicle still uses a 1.2T engine, but it does not directly drive the wheels. Instead, the car is powered by front and rear electric motors. Due to the adoption of a more compact three-in-one electric motor, the fuel tank capacity has been increased from 45L in the previous model to 55L. The combined range has also improved, reaching 1080km.
