Single yellow lines must not be crossed. Here are the details: 1. Violation: Crossing a yellow line is a traffic violation. Yellow lines are divided into single and double yellow lines, neither of which allows vehicles to cross or drive over them. If violated and recorded by traffic police or cameras, a fine will be issued, along with a deduction of 3 points. However, for yellow dashed lines, vehicles may cross or make a U-turn as long as it does not interfere with oncoming traffic. 2. Double solid yellow lines: These are used to divide roads with two or more lanes in each direction that do not have a central divider. Simply put, double yellow lines act as barriers—strictly prohibiting vehicles from crossing them to overtake or drive over them. Crossing them is equivalent to hitting a barrier. Double solid yellow lines are used to divide roads with two or more lanes in each direction that do not have a central divider. Vehicles are strictly prohibited from crossing them to overtake or drive over them.

Is Car Modification Legal?

Modifying the original factory model by replacing, adding, or removing parts or altering its appearance. Car modification is not illegal if it is done within the reasonable limits of the law. According to Article 16 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China': The first provision states that no unit or individual may assemble motor vehicles or alter the registered structure, construction, or characteristics of motor vehicles without authorization. Before modifying a vehicle: A professional modification technician mentioned that vehicle owners should apply to the vehicle management office in advance before modifying their vehicles. After modification, they need to fill out forms, take new photos, and update the vehicle registration certificate photo. However, the technician also pointed out that certain parts of the car cannot be modified, such as the shape of the headlights, and the engine cannot be replaced unless it is damaged. If one wants to replace the engine, proof from the insurance company or other relevant parties is required to justify the necessity of the replacement.

What do the + and - signs on the gear shift mean?

The plus and minus signs on the gear shift indicate the manual mode's gear shifting function, allowing you to manually adjust the gear up or down. Scenarios for using manual gear shifting: The plus sign can be used when climbing hills. The D gear, also known as the drive gear, automatically engages the appropriate forward gear based on throttle position and vehicle speed when the gear shift lever is in this position. Advantages of manual gear shifting: Manual/automatic transmission. This allows high-performance sports cars to break free from the constraints of traditional automatic transmissions, giving drivers the joy of manual shifting. These vehicles feature '+' and '-' gear selection options. When in D gear, drivers can freely downshift (-) or upshift (+), similar to a manual transmission. Drivers can force downshifts to slow down before entering a curve, just like with a manual transmission, and then accelerate out of the curve in a lower or middle gear.

What is the average fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for a regular family car?

Generally, for family sedans with around 1.6L displacement, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers ranges between 6-8 liters. How to calculate car fuel consumption: Fill up the car's gas tank completely and reset the odometer to zero. After driving for a period, refill the tank and note how many liters were added. Then, divide the amount of fuel added by the distance traveled to get the fuel consumption per kilometer. Reasons for high fuel consumption: Driver's skill level, improper gear shifting and excessive braking during driving can artificially increase engine power loss. Frequent braking also leads to more starts, as fuel consumption rate is very high during acceleration. Driving at low temperatures - cars are designed to operate at normal engine temperatures. If you drive without proper warm-up, the engine remains cold, resulting in poor fuel atomization and incomplete combustion.

How Many Kilometers to Change Motorcycle Oil?

Most motorcycle engines require an oil change every 2,000 to 3,500 kilometers. It is recommended to regularly change the oil during normal vehicle use. Oil Selection: When selecting oil, the primary consideration should be the viscosity index. Speed (based on general driving conditions), engine load level, and temperature (depending on the driving environment) are the three main factors in choosing viscosity. The higher the speed, the lower the viscosity oil should be selected. The higher the load, the higher the viscosity oil should be chosen. The higher the temperature, the higher the viscosity oil should be used. Oil Quality Depends On: Base oil and additives. The quality of the base oil depends on: crude oil source and refining technology, synthetic process technology. Additives mainly include: anti-wear agents - reduce friction and wear, detergents - prevent surface deposits, dispersants - keep insoluble matter suspended, antioxidants - inhibit oxidative decomposition, corrosion inhibitors - prevent rusting of metal parts, friction modifiers - improve friction performance, demulsifiers - separate oil and water, pour point depressants - improve low-temperature fluidity, anti-foaming agents - reduce foam (air in oil) formation, viscosity index improvers - enhance viscosity-temperature characteristics, EP additives - control wear under extreme load conditions.

Which rearview mirror to look at when reversing into the right parking space?

When reversing into the right parking space, you should first look at the right rearview mirror, keeping an eye on the rear wheel until it enters the corner of the parking space, then gradually shift your gaze to the left mirror. Below is relevant information about rearview mirrors: 1. Introduction to rearview mirrors: Rearview mirrors are tools that allow drivers, seated in the driver's seat, to directly obtain external information about the rear, sides, and lower parts of the car. For the convenience of the driver's operation, to prevent traffic safety accidents, and to ensure personal safety, all countries mandate that cars must be equipped with rearview mirrors, and all rearview mirrors must be adjustable in direction. 2. Installation of rearview mirrors: When designing rearview mirrors, the main design considerations include the field of view obtainable by the rearview mirror (indirect vision), image distortion, image clarity, image size, the position of the image in the rearview mirror, etc., making it easy to adjust according to changes in the driver's viewpoint. Rearview mirrors should be installed at the position on the car body where vertical vibration is minimal.
