Whether temporary license plates can be used across cities depends on the type of temporary license plate. In China, temporary license plates are divided into four types: 1. Temporary license plates for administrative jurisdictions (valid for no more than 15 days); 2. Temporary license plates for cross-administrative jurisdictions (valid for no more than 30 days); 3. Temporary license plates for testing purposes; 4. Temporary license plates for special-type motor vehicles. Additional Information: Paper motor vehicle license plates that permit temporary road use are also known as temporary driving license plates. These are temporary vehicle driving certificates issued by the vehicle management department of the public security authorities before new vehicles are officially registered. The validity period of temporary license plates generally does not exceed 30 days. There are four types: 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.

As a new car owner who just bought a vehicle, I figured out the cross-city issue when applying for temporary license plates last year. The dealer told me there are two types of temporary plates: one for intra-city use only (limited to local driving), and the other for inter-provincial travel (allowing you to drive to other cities). I opted for the inter-provincial type because I needed to drive my car from Shanghai to my hometown in Hangzhou. If you don’t get the right type and get pulled over by traffic police on the highway, it’ll count as driving without a license plate—resulting in fines, points deducted, or even having your car towed. Temporary plates have a short validity period, usually 30 days, so you must hurry to get permanent plates before they expire, or you’ll face more trouble. Many new drivers overlook this, thinking they can drive freely without consequences, only to end up with hefty fines. It’s best to ask more questions when applying for plates to confirm the correct type—don’t find it annoying. Road safety is no small matter; only by following the rules can you drive with peace of mind.

What is the normal pressure of a car air conditioner?

Car air conditioner normal pressure is: 1. Low pressure between 1.0 to 2.5 bar; 2. High pressure between 15 to 18 bar. More related information: The car air conditioning device, referred to as car AC, consists of a refrigeration system, heating system, air purification device, and control system. It is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car compartment to an optimal state. The functions of car air conditioning are: 1. To adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and air flow inside the car compartment to an optimal state; 2. To provide passengers with a comfortable riding environment and reduce travel fatigue; 3. To create good working conditions for the driver and ensure driving safety.

Does the car need to warm up when starting?

Car starting requires warming up because the engine temperature is low when just started, and the lubricating oil in various parts has not yet reached its position. Driving immediately will cause dry friction of mechanical parts and wear out components. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The warm-up time does not need to be too long. The criterion is that when the water temperature gauge pointer just starts to move, or the engine tachometer drops back to idle speed after starting, you can drive. It takes about one minute. 2. The engine needs lubrication to work. After being stationary for a long time, the lubricating oil will flow back into the oil pan. Therefore, it is necessary to idle first to allow the lubricating oil to fully lubricate all parts that need lubrication before adding load work, which is beneficial to prolonging the engine's life.

China National I Emission Standard?

China National I standard vehicles refer to motor vehicles produced under the first phase of the national emission standards implemented, abbreviated as National I standard vehicles. In other words, most motor vehicles purchased between January 1, 1999, and December 31, 2003, fall within the scope of National I vehicles. From January 1, 1999, to December 31, 2003, China referenced the European Emission Standard I, taking passenger cars with a designed seating capacity of no more than 6 people (including the driver) and a maximum total mass not exceeding 2.5 tons as an example. During this period, the emission standard limits that had to be met were: carbon monoxide must not exceed 3.16g/km; hydrocarbons must not exceed 1.13g/km; for diesel vehicles, particulate matter standards must not exceed 0.18g/km; and the durability requirement was 50,000 km. Additional information is as follows: Other phases of automobile emission standards: 1. Phase II: Between 1989 and 1993, China successively issued two limit standards and two test method standards based on driving cycles. By then, China had established a relatively complete system of automobile exhaust emission standards. 2. Phase III: Starting in 1999, Beijing implemented the local regulation DB11/105－1998, and from 2000, the national standard GB14961－1999 "Limits and Measurement Methods for Emissions from Vehicles" was implemented nationwide, bringing China's automobile exhaust emission standards up to the level of the early 1990s in foreign countries. 3. Phase IV: In 2008, Beijing implemented the "China National IV Emission Standard for Motor Vehicles" (referred to as "National IV") for all newly added motor vehicles in the city. The supply of National IV standard automotive fuel began citywide on January 1, 2008.

Is It Necessary to Clean the Car Air Conditioning?

Cleaning the car air conditioning is highly necessary. Here are the manual cleaning methods for the air conditioning: 1. Clean the air conditioning filter. The normal lifespan of the original car air conditioning filter is one year. Regularly cleaning the air conditioning filter will maintain fresh air inside the car. 2. Clean the air conditioning ducts. Ordinary air conditioning cleaners and disinfectants can be used to clean the air conditioning. Before cleaning, shake the air conditioning cleaner well, then spray it directly onto the filter. The built-in suction of the air conditioning will draw in the cleaner, thereby cleaning the ducts. 3. Clean the evaporator. When cleaning the evaporator, it is necessary to first remove the air conditioning pipes and the evaporator. This can be done at a car maintenance or repair shop. 4. Clean the air conditioning condenser. Open the front bumper of the car to expose the condenser, then use a water gun to clean the dirt on the condenser.

What is the Difference Between Air Recirculation and Fresh Air Mode?

The difference between air recirculation and fresh air mode lies in that recirculation blocks polluted air, while fresh air mode replenishes fresh air. Here are some details about air recirculation and fresh air mode: 1. Fresh Air Mode: This mode circulates air from outside the vehicle, meaning it exchanges the air inside the car with the outside air. It draws external air into the air conditioning system for cooling, filling the entire cabin with cool air. The primary benefit of fresh air mode is that it provides fresh air while cooling, and when the outside air is dry or cold, it can also help defrost or defog the windows. 2. Air Recirculation: During summer or winter, turning on recirculation can quickly cool or heat the cabin since the air does not circulate with the outside. In heavy traffic, it's best to use recirculation to prevent exhaust fumes from entering the car.

What to Do If Your Driver's License Is Lost?

The solution for a lost driver's license is to apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued or at any other vehicle management office. Points to note: 1. After the replacement application is successfully processed, you cannot drive a motor vehicle with the original license before receiving the new one. 2. If the driver's license replacement application is accepted but, due to time constraints, you cannot obtain the new license on the same day, you are not allowed to drive during this "gap period" before receiving the new license. Otherwise, it will be considered as driving without a license. Additional information: 1. After obtaining a new driver's license, the original one becomes invalid. Even if you find the original license after replacing it, it is still considered invalid, and the new license should be used. 2. For replacing a lost or damaged driver's license, you do not need to provide a medical certificate, only a declaration of loss is required. However, for renewing an expired license, you must provide the original and a copy of the medical certificate.
