You can switch to permanent license plates as soon as they are issued. Temporary license plates are valid for 15 days and can be renewed up to three times, allowing a maximum usage period of 45 days. Within these 45 days, you must install the permanent license plates. Vehicle License Plate Application Process: The applicant must bring the required materials to the local vehicle management office to complete the necessary procedures. The inspection department will review the vehicle's factory qualification certificate for domestically produced vehicles. The registration review department will examine the submitted materials, input the registration information if everything complies with regulations, and issue an acceptance certificate to the vehicle owner. The archives management department will verify the information in the computer registration system, organize the documents, and file them. Rules for Using Temporary License Plates: Before the permanent license plates are issued, only temporary license plates should be used. Once the permanent plates are issued, even if the temporary plates are still within their validity period, they cannot be used anymore. If caught by traffic police, you will face corresponding penalties.

Can Cars Run on Hydrogen?

Cars can run on hydrogen, and hydrogen-powered vehicles belong to the category of new energy vehicles. The advantages of hydrogen-powered cars include: 1. Hydrogen is a renewable resource with relatively low material costs; 2. Hydrogen-powered vehicles produce almost no pollutants in their exhaust emissions, making them more environmentally friendly. The disadvantage of hydrogen-powered cars is that they are not yet widely popularized, and their stability still needs to be tested by the market. Currently, hydrogen-powered vehicles available in the market include the Maxus FCV80, Hyundai NEXO, and Toyota Mirai. In addition to hydrogen-powered vehicles, new energy vehicles also include pure electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles.

Why Does the Car Brake Make Noise?

Car brake noise occurs due to issues in the braking system, such as worn brake pads becoming too thin, causing the brake drum to directly contact the vehicle. The friction between metal parts then produces noise. When the brake pads are thin, a warning indicator will light up, prompting immediate inspection. If the brake pads are found to be in good condition after inspection, the car can continue to be driven normally. For new cars, since both the brake pads and brake discs are brand new, they are in a break-in period. This can lead to unusual noises while driving. Owners need not worry about such noises as they will automatically disappear after the car has passed the break-in period.

Where is the ETC generally installed?

The ETC is usually installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield for most vehicles, while for large vehicles like trucks and buses, it is installed in the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with anti-explosion film or those that have it installed later, it may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, so it should be installed in the microwave skylight band. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection, which is an electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, the vehicle owner needs to provide original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is made by a proxy, the proxy's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also needed, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. For company vehicles, the required documents include: A letter of introduction from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the proxy; original vehicle registration certificate; and the vehicle that needs to have ETC installed. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the driver's view. It is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a steeply angled windshield, which can reduce the driver's field of vision. Installing the ETC without considering this can increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it on the right side behind the rearview mirror can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the blackened areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it arbitrarily: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-tamper lever connected to a switch. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-tamper lever in. If the tag is removed arbitrarily, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent issues caused by the ETC device of the vehicle in front, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to avoid automatic toll deduction for the vehicle ahead. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h; driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to toll deduction failure. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.
