The primary applicant of the family receives a base score of 2 points, while other family applicants receive a base score of 1 point each. If a family applicant has previously participated in the regular license plate lottery, 1 point is added for each accumulated step. For those in the queue for a new energy vehicle license plate, 1 point is added for each full year of waiting time from the application deadline, with any partial year counted as a full year. Points from previously accumulated steps in the lottery are combined, but no points are added if the applicant has not participated in the lottery or queue.

I just studied Beijing's new energy vehicle family points policy, which is particularly suitable for multi-generational families like ours. The points are mainly based on three factors: first, the number of generations in the household—since my parents live with us and our child, we count as two generations, earning 30 points; second, the total years of social insurance contributions by all family members—my dad's 20 years of contributions give us an advantage; finally, points are awarded for having a driver's license—both my wife and I have participated in the license plate lottery, which gives us extra points. After this year's policy adjustment, the winning rate for carless families has doubled, with multi-generational families averaging about 35 points more than single applicants. However, it's crucial to note the participant restrictions—all family members must have Beijing household registration or residence permits, including newborns.

Is it mandatory for cars to be equipped with fire extinguishers?

There are no strict regulations on whether small cars must be equipped with dedicated fire extinguishers, but during vehicle inspections, external inspection personnel say that a fire extinguisher is required. Precautions for using car fire extinguishers: When purchasing a fire extinguisher: Buy from reputable fire equipment stores, check their business license and product certification before purchasing, and carefully check the expiration date of the fire extinguisher. When choosing a car fire extinguisher, besides paying attention to the appearance, car owners should also ask the seller for product certification, quality assurance, and user manual, and request an invoice to ensure accountability in case of problems. Precautions for placing fire extinguishers: Fire extinguishers should be placed in a dry, ventilated, and easily accessible area, away from open flames, high temperatures, and greasy areas. Regularly check if the safety pin is intact, if the cylinder is deformed or corroded, and if the nozzle is clogged with grease.

What gear should a manual transmission car be in when parking on an uphill slope?

Manual transmission cars on uphill slopes can be divided into the following three situations: When starting: Use first gear when starting a manual transmission car on an uphill slope, because among all the gears, first gear provides the greatest traction, which is more conducive to a smooth start. While driving: When driving a manual transmission car uphill, every gear except reverse may be used, mainly depending on matching speed with the appropriate gear. After parking: Parking on a slope requires special techniques, especially for manual transmission cars. Not only should the handbrake be firmly engaged, but the gear should also be used to assist in holding the car. Generally speaking: if the car is facing downhill, engage reverse gear; if the car is facing uphill, engage first gear. For particularly steep slopes, placing stones under the tires adds extra safety.

Should You Drive with Headlights On?

Yes. Not only is it necessary to turn on the lights when driving at night, but it is also essential to have them on during the day. The most prominent example is daytime running lights. Introduction to Car Headlights: Car headlights, also known as automobile front lights or LED daytime running lights, serve as the 'eyes' of a car. They not only relate to the external image of the car owner but are also closely linked to safe driving at night or under bad weather conditions. The use and maintenance of car lights should not be overlooked. Arc Lamps and Incandescent Lamps: Around the same period, in 1809, the famous British chemist Davy, who was deeply engaged in electrochemical research, also discovered the electric arc. He personally built a large capacitor, utilizing 2000 voltaic batteries, to produce a more intense and brighter arc light.

What is the reason for the horn sounding but the dashboard not lighting up and the car failing to start?

The reasons for the horn sounding but the dashboard not lighting up and the car failing to start are as follows: Battery issues: For example, the battery has reached the end of its lifespan, or the battery terminals are loose, making poor contact, or the terminals may be oxidized; the starter fuse may be broken. Dashboard problems: If all the indicator lights on the dashboard are off and the car shuts down immediately after starting, it may be a problem with the dashboard. A common cause is damage to the dashboard CPU. You can press the horn to see if it sounds. If the horn sounds loudly, the battery is fine. If the horn does not sound or the sound is very weak, it indicates that the battery is low on power. If turning the key produces no sound at all, it can basically be confirmed that the battery has completely drained. The dashboard is a rigid plate or structural component used to install instruments and related devices. It can be categorized by type into screen-type dashboards, frame-type dashboards, channel-type dashboards, and cabinet-type dashboards.

What is the basis for determining solid line violations?

Wheels crossing the solid line is considered a solid line violation. Solid lines are divided into yellow/white. When driving straight, you must not cross the line, regardless of whether it's solid or dashed, yellow or white. You must drive within the lane. Distinguishing lane solid lines: Generally, roads marked with a single solid line are not very wide. If two vehicles are driving side by side, it becomes very crowded. A white solid line is drawn on the right side to separate the motor vehicle lane from the non-motor vehicle lane. The main purpose is to warn vehicles not to cross the line for overtaking. Roads marked with double yellow solid lines are generally wider, at least with two lanes on one side plus a white solid line separating the motor vehicle lane from the non-motor vehicle lane. The width of the road makes it difficult for drivers to distinguish lanes when turning or passing intersections. If a single yellow line is used on such a road section, it is easy to drive in the wrong lane. Using double yellow lines makes it easier to distinguish. Distinguishing left-turn areas: Some areas with a single yellow line have dashed lines, indicating that vehicles are allowed to make left turns or U-turns in this area. Similarly, vehicles coming from the opposite direction also have the right to make left turns and U-turns in this area. However, double yellow lines are different. In some road sections, the same area may have dashed lines on one side and solid lines on the other. This means that vehicles on the dashed line side can make left turns in this area, while vehicles on the opposite side are not allowed to make left turns in this area.
