Yes, you need to wait for a red light when turning left. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing and cannot make a U-turn or left turn directly. Here is more relevant information: The "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" has corresponding provisions: 1. Article 38 states that motor vehicle signal lights and non-motor vehicle signal lights indicate: When the green light is on, vehicles are allowed to pass, but turning vehicles must not hinder the passage of released straight-going vehicles and pedestrians; When the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to pass. When the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from passing. At intersections without non-motor vehicle signal lights and pedestrian crossing signal lights, non-motor vehicles and pedestrians should follow the indications of the motor vehicle signal lights. 2. Article 20 states that learning to drive a motor vehicle should first involve studying road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After passing the exam, one can then learn motor vehicle driving skills. Learning to drive on the road should be conducted on routes and at times designated by the traffic management department of the public security organ. When learning motor vehicle driving skills on the road, a training vehicle should be used under the guidance of an instructor, and individuals unrelated to the training should not ride in the training vehicle.

After holding the hold button for a few seconds, you can easily open the trunk. Holding the hold button for a few seconds to open the trunk is to avoid the danger of opening the trunk when the vehicle is moving or under other conditions. 2. The second hold is the remote start engine button. Within a remote distance, hold it for 2-3 seconds, and the car will start automatically. Remote start can adjust the interior temperature in advance. In winter, it can warm up the car in advance, so that the engine temperature is normal when you get in the car, avoiding idling waiting or engine wear due to low temperature.

Can I Contact the Insurance Company If I Lost My Car Key?

You can contact the insurance company if you lost your car key, but the prerequisite for filing a claim is that the car owner has purchased the "Compensation Insurance for Lost or Damaged Motor Vehicle Keys." Below is an introduction to remote keys: Function: A remote key utilizes the wireless remote control function of the central locking system, allowing you to open and lock the car doors from a distance without inserting the key into the lock. Working Principle: The key emits a weak radio wave, which is received by the car's antenna. The electronic control unit (ECU) identifies the signal code, and then the system's actuator (motor or electromagnetic coil) executes the locking/unlocking action. This system mainly consists of two parts: the transmitter and the receiver.

Where to Stick the OBU?

Typically, the ETC OBU is installed behind the rearview mirror or in the middle position of the windshield. Here is relevant information: 1. The Electronic Toll Collection System (ETC) is a fully automatic toll collection system that enables vehicles to pay highway tolls without stopping by communicating with microwave equipment in ETC lanes through "on-board electronic tags + IC cards." 2. By applying combined networked electronic toll collection technology at highway toll stations, the highway electronic toll collection system improves the traffic capacity of toll stations, alleviates congestion, and provides highway users with safe and convenient electronic payment and passage services. Using the electronic toll collection system can reduce vehicle wear and fuel consumption, decrease air pollution, achieve energy savings and emission reductions, and benefit environmental protection.

Will points be deducted for carrying passengers on a light motorcycle?

Points will be deducted for carrying passengers on a light motorcycle. Below are specific details about carrying passengers on light motorcycles: Regulations: According to Article 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China: If a motor vehicle driver violates road traffic safety laws or regulations regarding road traffic rules, they shall be given a warning or fined, and 1 point will be deducted in accordance with the "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Violations." Impact: Overloading causes the vehicle to exceed its carrying capacity, increasing the driver's instability during operation, enlarging the vehicle's inertia, extending the braking distance, and correspondingly increasing the risk. Both drivers and passengers should consciously comply with traffic regulations.

What Does Tire Section Width Mean?

When conducting a cross-sectional analysis of a tire, it is necessary to cut the tire open. The distance between the two sidewalls after the cut is referred to as the tire section width. Below are specific details about tires: Composition: Tire specifications include the tire section width, aspect ratio, load index, speed rating, tire type, and applicable rim diameter. Among these, the tire section width significantly impacts tire safety, and it refers to the width of the tire's cross-section. Impact: Tires with a larger section width naturally have a greater contact area with the ground. During driving, this increases the friction between the tire and the road surface. Not only does this enhance the tire's wet traction performance, but it also improves water drainage, thereby increasing driving safety in rainy conditions.
