A C1 driver's license should be renewed within ninety days before its expiration date. Article 57 of the "Traffic Regulations and Penalty Points Rules": The driver of a motor vehicle shall apply for renewal at the vehicle management office of the issuing authority or another vehicle management office within ninety days before the expiration of the motor vehicle driver's license. If the driver's license expires, the traffic police will impose a fine upon inspection, but no penalty points will be deducted. There is also a latest deadline for renewing the driver's license. If it expires within one year, the renewal can proceed through the normal process; if it expires between one and three years, the license will be canceled, and the driver can retake the subject one exam to regain the license; if it expires for more than three years, the license will be canceled. When applying, the applicant must fill out the application form and submit the following documents and proofs: the identity proof of the motor vehicle driver; the motor vehicle driver's license; a medical certificate of physical condition issued by a county-level or higher medical institution or a military medical institution at the regiment level or above. For applications for a small automatic passenger vehicle for the disabled, a medical certificate of physical condition issued by a specialized medical institution designated by the provincial health authority must be submitted. Relevant matters for renewing the driver's license upon expiration: When renewing the license, after filling out the renewal application as needed, the applicant must bring their ID card, driver's license, medical examination report, and other relevant materials. A recent one-inch color photo with a white background and no hat must be used for the renewal. If the photo is not qualified, a new photo must be taken. After the motor vehicle driver's license is renewed, the original license becomes invalid and cannot be used again. The driver must properly keep the personal information on the driver's license and not discard it carelessly, as leakage of this information could cause issues in the use of the motor vehicle driver's license. Regarding renewal: Before renewal, all relevant traffic violations must be resolved; otherwise, the application will not be accepted. Processing location: The renewal can be processed at the vehicle management office of the issuing authority or another vehicle management office. The motor vehicle driver's license can be renewed through the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123," the vehicle management office, or the public security authority. The photos and medical examination proof required for renewal can be prepared by the applicant. If there are concerns about the qualifications of self-prepared materials, they can be processed directly at the traffic police office to avoid delays.

What is the standard tire pressure for car tires?

Normal range of tire pressure: According to the regulations and requirements of the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the tire pressure for different tires is as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5bar. Abnormal tire pressure generally has the following three reasons: Tire pressure abnormality: Generally, an alarm will be triggered if the pressure is below 1.8bar or above 3.0bar. At this time, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure is not reset in time, the tire pressure monitoring system will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring indicator light to turn on. Simply perform a tire pressure reset to resolve this. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor is used to monitor tire pressure and is directly installed inside the tire, connected to the tire inflation port. If the tire pressure sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, it will also cause the tire pressure fault light to turn on. For sensor damage issues, only replacement with a new component is possible.

Can I Bring a Seat Cushion for the Subject 2 Driving Test?

You can bring a seat cushion for the Subject 2 driving test. The Subject 2 test mainly assesses the examinee's ability to control the vehicle in a semi-clutch state and their parking skills. Key points to note for Subject 2: Preparation before starting: Fasten the seatbelt, adjust the seat to the position used during practice, then adjust the rearview mirror for optimal visibility. Confirm with the examiner that you can start the test, then follow the voice prompts. Generally, the training vehicle is already running, so press the clutch and brake, release the handbrake, shift to first gear, and slowly lift the clutch until the vehicle vibrates, then release the brake and slowly move into the test area. If the training vehicle is off, first press the clutch and brake, shift to neutral, start the engine, and then proceed with the above steps. Reverse parking: Drive to the stop line for right-side parking, stop when your shoulder aligns with the stop line, shift to reverse gear, and start reversing into the space. Once inside, ensure the vehicle is straight without unnecessary turns, then stop at the designated point. Shift to first gear to exit, drive to the left-side parking control line, stop when your shoulder aligns with the control line, shift to reverse gear, and start reversing into the left space. After parking, drive forward to exit. Throughout the process, avoid stopping midway, rolling, stalling, or crossing lines. Parallel parking: When entering the parallel parking test area, use the wiper's raised part as a reference to align with the road edge, or use the rearview mirror to maintain a 30 cm distance between the vehicle and the parking space line. Stop when your shoulder aligns with the parallel parking control line, press the clutch and brake, shift to reverse gear, and start parallel parking. The parking must be completed in one attempt without stopping, rolling, stalling, or crossing lines. Curve driving: Before entering the curve driving test area, position the vehicle slightly to the left, then drive through the curve and exit at the other end. Maintain a slow and steady speed during the test, carefully navigating each curve. Avoid stopping, rolling, stalling, or crossing lines throughout the process.

What Causes the Clicking Sound When the Wiper Returns to Its Position?

Key areas to inspect include whether the wiper is properly positioned and if the wiper blade is aged. Below are detailed explanations of the related issues: Causes: It is highly likely due to wear or deformation of the wiper rubber, excessive resistance of the wiper, or slight deformation of the wiper arm from prolonged use, causing a rattling sound during operation. In such cases, simply prepare a wrench. If the wiper makes a rattling sound when moving upwards, use the wrench to gently twist the wiper arm inward toward the windshield. Wiper Rubber: Noise caused by issues with the wiper rubber itself. Since the wiper blade is made of rubber, prolonged use can lead to aging and hardening. Problems arising from extended use can only be resolved by replacing the blade. Proper wiping technique: The edge of the wiper blade should perform a dragging or sweeping motion on the windshield. Incorrect installation of a new blade can also cause noise.

Can tires be used after 7 years?

Tires cannot be used after 7 years. The majority of tires have a lifespan of five years after production, and it is not recommended to continue using them beyond this period. Precautions for using car tires: Check the tire surface for cracks: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. The tread grooves gradually wear down over time, and if they become smooth, the tire will lose its ability to drain water and provide traction, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, ensure to remove small stones from the grooves promptly. Park on flat ground: Avoid parking on surfaces with large, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acidic substances, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. Drivers should avoid turning the steering wheel after parking, as this accelerates tire wear. Avoid splashing water to cool tires: Tires can overheat during prolonged or high-speed driving in summer, leading to increased pressure. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tire rubber. Avoid sudden braking: When starting, avoid abrupt acceleration and frequent or emergency braking, as this can accelerate tread wear due to dragging on the ground. When turning, overtaking, passing intersections, narrow roads, or railway crossings, maintain an appropriate speed and be aware of road conditions, pedestrians, and other vehicles. Prepare to brake in advance to reduce frequent or emergency braking, thereby minimizing tire wear. If encountering unavoidable broken glass or other debris, slow down and avoid sudden braking, as this increases pressure and makes it easier for debris to puncture the tire. Choose good road surfaces: When driving through road construction areas, proceed slowly and carefully to avoid excessive impact or punctures. On uneven roads, select the best path to minimize tire impact and damage, and drive at a reduced speed to avoid excessive bouncing and vibration. When driving through muddy areas, choose firm, non-slippery paths to prevent the tires from sinking, spinning in place, or generating excessive heat, which can cause severe cuts or scratches to the tires and sidewalls.
