Yes, it will have an impact, as it increases engine wear. During the break-in period, it is best to keep the car's speed between 50-80 km/h. Penalties for speeding: If the speed limit is 80 km/h and you drive at 85 km/h, it is considered speeding but does not exceed 10% of the speed limit, so there will be no fine or penalty points, but a warning may be issued. If the speed exceeds 10% to 20% of the limit, a fine and 3 penalty points will be imposed. If the speed exceeds 20% to 50% of the limit, a fine and 6 penalty points will be imposed. Legal basis: Article 86 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China".

How to Identify Three-Warranty Tires?

Motor vehicle demerit points can be processed on the 12123 platform. The traffic patrol police departments of public security authorities impose administrative penalties on road traffic violators in accordance with traffic management laws, regulations, and rules. Traffic violation penalties are divided into four types: warnings, fines, suspension of driver's licenses, and detention. Reasons for delays in clearing fine records: 1. System delay in traffic violation query platforms: Violations go through certain steps and procedures from occurrence, being captured, confirmed, to being publicized. Similarly, processing demerit points and paying fines also require going through procedures. 2. Use of third-party agency services: With the rapid development of smartphones, various apps and public accounts for handling violations have emerged endlessly. The time taken to process violations varies depending on the channels used by each agency to clear violations.

What is the height limit for a 13-meter trailer?

For a 13-meter tractor, according to national regulations, the cargo height of a truck must not exceed 4.5 meters from the ground, so the general loading height is only about 3.0 meters. A 13-meter semi-trailer, as per national standards, typically has a maximum load capacity of 34 tons. Below is relevant information: 1. Characteristics of semi-trailers: A semi-trailer is a trailer with its axles placed behind the vehicle's center (when the vehicle is evenly loaded) and equipped with a coupling device that transmits horizontal and vertical forces to the tractor. It is a heavy-duty transport vehicle connected to the semi-trailer head via a kingpin. The national standard allows a total weight of 55 tons including the trailer's own weight, but the trailer's load capacity can reach up to 200 tons. 2. Classification of semi-trailers: Semi-trailers are generally three-axle trailers, categorized into types such as 11-meter warehouse-barrier semi-trailers, 13-meter warehouse-barrier semi-trailers, and low-flatbed semi-trailers. Vehicles with load capacities and dimensions similar to ordinary high-barrier trucks but weighing 15% or more lighter are defined as light-duty. 3. Load capacities of different vehicle types: A 6.8-ton self-weight vehicle can carry about 40 tons, and a 7.2-ton self-weight vehicle can carry about 50 tons.

What is the principle of a car supercharger?

Working principle of exhaust turbocharger is as follows: 1. Increase intake air volume by compressing air: It uses the inertial impulse of exhaust gas discharged from the engine to drive the turbine in the turbine chamber, which in turn drives the coaxial impeller. The impeller pressurizes the air delivered from the air filter pipeline, forcing it into the cylinder under increased pressure. The increased pressure and density of the air entering the cylinder allow for more fuel to be burned. By correspondingly increasing the fuel quantity and adjusting the engine speed, the engine's output power can be increased. 2. Utilize the energy of exhaust gas discharged from the engine: The energy impacts the turbine installed in the exhaust system, causing it to rotate at high speed while simultaneously driving the compressor to rotate together. The compressor compresses the intake air, forcibly pressurizing it before delivering it into the cylinder. Since engine power is directly proportional to the intake air volume, the engine power can be improved. 3. Extremely high pressure is generated internally: Although the turbine body has holes to release high-pressure gas, it still appears somewhat insufficient when facing continuous pressurization. The pressure relief valve allows the high-pressure gas to be rapidly released, preparing for the next pressurization action.

What is the appropriate tire pressure for an SUV?

Whether it's an SUV or a sedan, the standard tire pressure indicators are generally 2.2/2.3/2.4/2.5. However, for most vehicles, maintaining a tire pressure around 2.3 is considered most appropriate. Typically, inflating to 2.5 is acceptable, as slightly higher tire pressure is far better than having it too low. Below are relevant details: 1. Hazards of abnormal tire pressure: From the perspective of tire blowouts, low tire pressure is more likely to cause a blowout, while high tire pressure actually reduces the probability of a blowout, although it may lead to more severe tire wear. 2. Precautions: While driving, pay attention to the tire pressure warning indicators inside the vehicle. If the tire pressure is abnormal, promptly visit a repair shop for servicing.

What is Windshield Washer Fluid?

Commonly known as automotive windshield cleaning fluid, it is a consumable item in vehicle maintenance. High-quality windshield washer fluid primarily consists of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. The main functions of windshield washer fluid are as follows: 1. Cleaning performance: The fluid is formulated with multiple surfactants and additives that typically provide wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing effects, thereby removing dirt effectively. 2. Antifreeze performance: The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol significantly lowers the freezing point of the liquid, preventing ice formation and quickly dissolving frost. 3. Anti-fog performance: Forms a monomolecular protective layer on the glass surface to prevent fog droplets, ensuring clear visibility. 4. Anti-static performance: Eliminates static charges on the glass surface after cleaning. 5. Lubrication performance: The ethylene glycol content provides viscosity, reducing friction between wipers and glass to prevent scratches. 6. Corrosion resistance: Contains various inhibitors that are safe for metals, car paint, and rubber.

Can 95 and 98 gasoline be mixed together?

95 and 98 gasoline cannot be mixed. The following are specific introductions to car refueling: 1. Gasoline grade description: Although 98 gasoline has higher anti-knock performance and power, vehicles with low grades should not blindly choose high-grade gasoline. The higher the grade, the more suitable it is for engines with larger compression ratios. The engines of cars that use 95 gasoline often have smaller compression ratios. Adding 98 gasoline may increase knocking in the engine. 2. Avoid mixing: Gasoline of different grades should not be mixed, such as mixing 98 and 95 gasoline. However, long-term use may also have a certain impact on the engine, and even cause phenomena such as engine carbon deposits and increased fuel consumption.
