12123 issues temporary license plates through mail delivery, and self-pickup is not available. The specific details about temporary license plates are as follows: 1. Definition: A temporary license plate is a paper motor vehicle license plate that permits temporary road use, also known as a temporary driving license plate. It is a temporary vehicle driving certificate issued by the public security vehicle management department for newly purchased vehicles before official registration. The validity period of a temporary license plate generally does not exceed thirty days. 2. Types: There are four types of temporary license plates: temporary license plates for administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions, temporary license plates for testing purposes, and temporary license plates for special-type motor vehicles.

I recently applied for a temporary license plate on the 12123 APP, and it's indeed possible to pick it up in person. The process is quite simple: After logging into the APP, select the temporary license plate application under vehicle services, fill in the vehicle information, and then you'll have the option to choose a pickup location or delivery. I picked a nearby vehicle management office. Then, wait for the approval notification and bring your ID card and original vehicle registration certificate to pick it up on-site. The advantage is that it's super fast—I applied in the morning and could pick it up in the afternoon without waiting for delivery. However, be mindful of the pickup location's business hours; avoid going on holidays to prevent long queues. If you forget essential documents like the original certificate, the trip would be wasted, so it's advisable to call ahead and confirm the required materials. Overall, picking it up in person is quite convenient, especially for those in urgent need.

I applied for a temporary license plate via 12123 and chose self-pickup, which I found extremely practical. The app process was smooth—after selecting a pickup point, the system automatically assigned the nearest DMV. Just bring the required documents, and you're good to go. Self-pickup saves on shipping fees and eliminates the wait, especially helpful when I was rushing for a business trip and got it done the same day. However, it's best to check the DMV's peak hours before heading there. Last time I went, it wasn't crowded, but I've heard some locations require queuing. Also, make sure to bring all necessary materials, like the vehicle license and a copy of the purchase invoice, to avoid mistakes. Overall, self-pickup is efficient but requires a bit of time planning, offering more control than mailing.

Applying for a temporary license plate on 12123 allows you to choose between self-pickup or mailing. Self-pickup is usually faster: after applying, select the local vehicle management office as the pickup point, and once the system approves, bring your documents to collect it, which takes about half a day. The main materials required are your ID card and vehicle license—don’t forget them. The pickup point is typically the nearest vehicle management office service hall. I recommend it because it saves money and time, but distance can be an issue, making mailing more convenient. Ensure the information filled in the APP is accurate to avoid any delays.

Is a 9-speed manual-automatic transmission the same as a 9AT?

No. A 9-speed manual-automatic transmission refers to a gearbox that combines both a nine-speed manual and automatic transmission. 9AT specifically refers to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Below is more information about transmissions: 1. Function: Under constant engine speed and torque, it changes the driving force and speed of the vehicle (shifting); allows the vehicle to move backward (reverse); and enables the engine to stop without stalling (neutral). 2. Transmission types: Can be divided into two-shaft, three-shaft, and composite types. The two-shaft type has two main shafts (excluding the reverse shaft) and only goes through one pair of gear reductions. The three-shaft type has three main shafts (input shaft, countershaft, output shaft) and goes through two pairs of gear reductions.

How to Determine if the Rear Wheel is Over the Line When Parallel Parking?

Here are methods to check if the rear wheel is over the line during parallel parking: Pay attention to the car's side mirrors. If the car's door handle aligns with the line in the mirror, it indicates the car is at a 45-degree angle to the car behind. However, exceeding this angle means the wheel is over the line. Below are parallel parking tips: 1. Find the right position to start parking: Upon hearing the "parallel parking" instruction, first determine the parking spot, then turn on the right turn signal and steer the wheel 90 degrees to the right. When the middle of the car's front aligns with the curb, quickly turn the wheel left more than 180 degrees. When the curb is between 1/3 to 1/2 of the front hood (coaches usually prefer 1/3; adjust based on car size), straighten the wheel. If the car deviates, make minor adjustments. 2. Adjust the right-side distance until the front door handle covers the curb edge: Observe the distance between the car's right side and the curb or edge, and adjust until the front door handle position covers or "touches" the curb, then quickly straighten the car. 3. Check the left mirror to ensure the front door handle doesn't extend beyond the rear car's body: Before exiting, check the left mirror to ensure the front door handle doesn't extend past the rear car's body. If there's no reference car, check the distance between the car's edge and the parking line to confirm the parking position, ensuring the car doesn't obstruct other traffic participants and avoids scratches from other vehicles.
