Shifting from N to D does not require pressing the brake. When starting the car, shifting from P to D passes through R, which causes a reverse impact on the transmission, potentially damaging it over time. Below are some precautions for driving an automatic transmission vehicle: 1. Gear selection while waiting at a red light. In fact, when waiting for a short red light, keeping the car in D while pressing the brake is fine. However, for longer durations, this can overheat the brake pads, leading to wear. 2. Avoid pressing the tires against obstacles when parking. Pressing the tires against obstacles is particularly bad for the car.

Can a tire be driven on the highway after hot patching?

Tires can be driven on the highway after hot patching, but the speed should be kept within 100 kilometers per hour, preferably not exceeding 80 kilometers per hour. The following are traditional tire repair methods: 1. Traditional plug method (external repair). It is simple and convenient, and not necessarily expensive. However, the effect is not very good, and it may still leak air. 2. Patch repair method (internal repair). The area to be repaired is sanded, glue is applied, and a tire patch is applied. This method is much more reliable than external repair and is relatively safer. The disadvantage is that it is more expensive than external repair. 3. Hot patching. Hot patching is similar to internal repair, but the hot patch can fully fuse with the tire, providing a better effect than internal repair.

Can Motorcycle Insurance Be Purchased in Another Location?

According to the "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents," it is possible to purchase motorcycle insurance in another location. When purchasing insurance in another location, the owner must provide identification documents such as their ID card and vehicle license. Compulsory Traffic Accident Liability Insurance (CTALI), the full name of which is Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents, is China's first mandatory insurance system implemented by national law. The "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents" stipulate that CTALI is a compulsory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates, within the liability limits, for personal injury, death, or property loss caused to victims (excluding the vehicle's occupants and the insured) in road traffic accidents involving the insured motor vehicle. Consequences of not having CTALI: According to the "CTALI Regulations," all owners or managers of motor vehicles driving on roads within the territory of the People's Republic of China must purchase CTALI. If the owner or manager of a motor vehicle fails to purchase CTALI as required, the traffic management department of the public security authority has the right to detain the vehicle, notify the owner or manager to purchase the insurance as stipulated, and impose a fine of twice the amount of the insurance premium payable. In addition to CTALI, there are optional commercial insurances: Commercial insurance in auto insurance mainly includes vehicle damage insurance, which compensates for the loss of the vehicle in unilateral accidents but does not cover separate glass damage. The insurance company bears 30% of the loss when the vehicle is damaged while parked or when the responsible party cannot be identified. In collision incidents, compensation is made according to the proportion of accident liability, and the price increases with the purchase price of the vehicle. The third-party liability insurance under commercial auto insurance has the same coverage as CTALI. However, compensation is only made after the mandatory CTALI compensation has been paid. Compensation is based on the proportion of accident liability, and the premium price is determined according to the coverage amount. Regardless of the type of insurance, CTALI does not cover passenger liability insurance, which compensates for medical expenses incurred due to injuries to passengers. The price is calculated based on the policy amount. The theft and robbery insurance under commercial auto insurance refers to compensation for the vehicle after it is stolen and for damage or loss caused by theft. The premium varies based on the vehicle's purchase price and discount rate. This insurance is suitable for vehicles frequently driven in other locations or those without fixed parking spaces. The no-deductible insurance under commercial auto insurance is a supplementary insurance to the four types mentioned above. When compensation is required based on the proportion of liability, a certain deductible rate is first deducted according to the degree of liability before calculating the compensation amount. The price varies with the premiums of the four aforementioned insurances. The spontaneous combustion insurance under commercial auto insurance covers losses and rescue costs due to spontaneous combustion of the vehicle. The premium increases with the vehicle's purchase price after discounts. Separate glass insurance covers the cost of glass damage during driving but does not include compensation for rearview mirrors. The scratch insurance under commercial auto insurance covers unilateral paint damage caused by scratches during driving. Especially for beginners, scratches are common, so this insurance usually comes with a corresponding deductible. Even if a loss occurs, a portion of the deductible is first deducted during compensation. Differences between CTALI and commercial insurance: The operating institutions differ. CTALI can only be underwritten by state-controlled insurance companies, while commercial third-party liability insurance can be underwritten by both foreign and domestic insurance companies. The business philosophies differ. CTALI has a public welfare nature and is not intended to generate profits, whereas commercial third-party liability insurance is a commercial insurance where the insurer's goal is profit, which is significantly different from CTALI's "no profit, no loss" philosophy. The compensation principles differ. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," for personal injury, death, or property loss caused by motor vehicle traffic accidents, the insurance company compensates within the CTALI liability limits. In commercial third-party liability insurance, the insurer determines compensation based on the policyholder's or insured's liability in the accident. The coverage differs. Except for certain items specified in the "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents," CTALI covers almost all road traffic liability risks. In commercial third-party liability insurance, insurers set varying deductibles, deductible rates, or exclusions. The enforceability differs. According to the "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents," all motor vehicle owners or managers must purchase CTALI, and insurers cannot refuse, delay, or arbitrarily terminate coverage. Commercial third-party liability insurance is a civil contract, where vehicle owners or managers have the choice to purchase, and insurers have the right to refuse coverage. The premium rates differ. The "Regulations on Compulsory Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents" stipulate that CTALI implements nationally unified insurance terms and basic rates, with the China Insurance Regulatory Commission approving rates based on the principle of "no profit, no loss" overall. Commercial third-party liability insurance rates are determined based on market conditions. The liability limits differ. CTALI implements segmented liability limits, while commercial third-party liability insurance has agreed liability limits.

Can the Elysion Hybrid still drive if the battery is broken?

Elysion Hybrid can still drive if the battery is broken. Hybrid vehicles have two sets of power systems. When the battery of the hybrid version is damaged, theoretically it can be driven as a gasoline car. The following is an introduction to hybrid vehicles: 1. Composition and Development: Hybrid vehicles, also known as composite power vehicles, are equipped with more than one power source: storage batteries, fuel cells, solar cells, and generator sets of internal combustion locomotives. Currently, composite power vehicles generally refer to internal combustion locomotives with generators, plus battery-powered vehicles. The key to hybrid vehicles is the hybrid power system, whose performance is directly related to the overall performance of the hybrid vehicle. After more than a decade of development, the hybrid power system assembly has evolved from the original discrete structure of the engine and motor to an integrated structure of the engine, motor, and transmission, i.e., the integrated hybrid power system. Hybrid power systems can be classified by power transmission routes into three types: series, parallel, and series-parallel. 2. Working Principle: Hybrid vehicles can use either oil or electricity. The front wheels are driven by the engine, and the rear wheels are driven by the motor. When oil is burned, the motor does not work, but the charging mode can be switched to use the engine to drive the vehicle for charging. In electric mode, the engine does not work. This is the working principle of the hybrid mode, meaning the battery plays a crucial role. In terms of overall weight, it is much heavier than ordinary fuel vehicles. Therefore, when the battery is damaged, the vehicle's engine not only needs to drive the car but also has to drag the heavier battery to work, so fuel consumption will naturally be high.
