No, you cannot participate in the car lottery without a driver's license. In addition to providing ID card information, participants must also submit driver's license information. The lottery requires the applicant's own motor vehicle driver's license, also known as a vehicle license. Otherwise, they are not eligible for the lottery. Below is relevant information: Implementation Background: The car lottery method involves first registering for an appointment queue, then uniformly participating in the lottery. In view of Beijing's severe traffic congestion, the Beijing municipal government decided to adopt a lottery system to limit car purchases starting in 2011. On January 26, 2011, the much-anticipated first round of Beijing's car purchase lottery was officially held, with over 180,000 individuals competing for 17,600 new vehicle quotas. Starting from January 1, 2014, Tianjin implemented a lottery and auction policy for car purchases. Lottery Conditions: Taking Beijing as an example: The applicant must not have a locally registered passenger car under their name; must not have a motor vehicle that should be scrapped but has not been deregistered; must hold a motor vehicle driver's license; and must hold a valid Beijing residence permit and have continuously paid social insurance and personal income tax in the city for the past five years (inclusive). There are three key points to note: "Continuous payment of social insurance in the city for the past five years" means 60 consecutive months counting backward from the month before the application month, with no breaks (if there is a break, it is valid after making up the payment). "Continuous payment of personal income tax in the city for the past five years" means five consecutive years counting backward from the year before the application year, with tax payment records for each year. Breaks within a year are allowed, but not across years. If there is a break across years, making up the payment is invalid. Both social insurance and tax requirements must be met simultaneously; meeting only one is insufficient.

Can Vehicle Inspection Be Conducted in Another Location?

Yes. According to existing traffic laws and regulations, cross-regional vehicle inspection is possible through a delegated inspection process. However, the final inspection procedures must still be issued by the vehicle's registration location. This means you don’t have to drive the vehicle back to its registered location; instead, you can opt for cross-regional inspection via a delegated inspection model. The only requirement is that you may need to handle some additional procedures yourself. Below are some extended details: Inspection Documents: The most important document for cross-regional vehicle inspection is the "Cross-Regional Vehicle Inspection Authorization Letter." When applying for cross-regional inspection, the first step is to obtain this authorization letter. Then, with the authorization letter and other relevant inspection documents, you can proceed with the inspection at the local vehicle management office in the delegated location. To apply for the Cross-Regional Vehicle Inspection Authorization Letter, you will need the vehicle owner’s ID card, vehicle license, insurance documents, original and photocopy of the vehicle and vessel tax receipt, and the cross-regional inspection application form. These should be submitted to the vehicle management office in the registration location. Required Documents for Inspection: When conducting the inspection, you must bring the vehicle license, insurance documents, and the Cross-Regional Vehicle Inspection Authorization Letter to the delegated local vehicle management office. Note: The vehicle must not have any unresolved traffic violations; otherwise, the inspection cannot proceed normally.

Is the Probability of Car Spontaneous Combustion High?

Car spontaneous combustion is a very low probability event, so there is no need to worry too much. However, for older vehicles, extra caution is advised. Common causes of spontaneous combustion include: oil leaks—due to aging and bursting of oil pipes over time; electrical issues—many car owners like to modify their audio systems or add electronic devices, which can lead to poor contact and other problems; water-damaged cars—vehicles that have been submerged in water may experience oxidized circuits, uneven power supply, and overheating, leading to spontaneous combustion; overheating brakes—on roads with long slopes, prolonged braking can cause brake pads to overheat and catch fire. By paying attention to regular inspections and timely maintenance, these issues can be avoided.

Will un-inspected vehicles be automatically photographed on the road?

They will not be caught by surveillance cameras. Here is the relevant information: Unqualified vehicles: If a vehicle misses its annual inspection, it is considered unqualified, and driving it on the road constitutes illegal driving. According to the Road Traffic Law, vehicle owners must have their vehicles inspected on time. Driving an uninspected vehicle on the road will result in penalties such as vehicle impoundment, a fine of 200 yuan, and 3 demerit points. Relevant regulations: Additionally, according to the 'Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles,' registered motor vehicles that fail to obtain an inspection compliance mark within three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection period must be mandatorily scrapped. In other words, if a motor vehicle fails to undergo inspection three times consecutively, it will be forcibly scrapped. Driving such a vehicle on the road will also result in fines, revocation of the driver's license, a two-year ban from reapplying for a driver's license, and the vehicle being confiscated and forcibly scrapped.

Can You Brake While Driving Straight?

You cannot brake while driving in a straight line. Below is additional information: Consequences: Naturally, you cannot stop during straight-line driving. Once the system indicates the start of straight-line driving, stopping will result in a failure. Therefore, before straight-line driving, ensure there are no obstacles ahead and maintain a distance of at least 100 meters from the vehicle in front. When the system signals the end of straight-line driving, you can then stop to perform other actions. Test Content: Vehicle preparation, simulated lighting test, starting, straight-line driving, gear shifting operations, lane changing, pulling over, driving straight through intersections, left turns at intersections, right turns at intersections, passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, and nighttime driving. Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge: Requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.
