The vehicle license is valid indefinitely, but it still requires annual inspection. The inspection validity period is marked on the supplementary page, which essentially indicates the deadline for the annual inspection. Therefore, the validity period of the vehicle license is also tied to the annual inspection. For vehicles exempt from inspection for the first 6 years, they are exempt from on-site testing during this period, and annual inspection only starts from the sixth year, with the vehicle license valid for 5 years. For vehicles older than 6 years, they require annual inspection, with the vehicle license valid for 1 year. For vehicles older than 15 years, they require biannual inspections, with the vehicle license valid for 6 months. Relevant information about the driver's license is as follows: 1. Introduction: The People's Republic of China Motor Vehicle Driver's License, commonly referred to as the driver's license or 'driver's permit,' is a mandatory certification for motor vehicle drivers under the laws of the People's Republic of China. 2. Examination Content: The test subjects include traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving).

How many points are deducted for violating traffic signals in Subject 1?

Generally, not following traffic signals will be treated as running a red light, resulting in a 6-point deduction and a fine. Additional information: 1. Traffic signals are categorized into: motor vehicle signals, non-motor vehicle signals, pedestrian crossing signals, lane signals, directional indicator signals, flashing warning signals, and railway crossing signals. 2. Legal basis: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signals results in a 6-point penalty. However, not all violations will lead to a 6-point deduction. For instance, illegal turns in straight lanes are penalized under the "Road Traffic Safety Law" as "violation of prohibitory signs," which carries a 3-point penalty.

Electronic Fuel Injection Engine Throttle Acceleration RPM Fails to Increase

Electronic fuel injection diesel engines failing to accelerate (RPM not increasing) can be attributed to three main reasons, as detailed below: 1. Fuel line blockage, insufficient fuel supply. 2. Injector pressure relief rail pressure too low. 3. Common rail pressure relief valve pressure too low. Additional Information: The primary function of electronic fuel injection diesel engines is to electronically control the fuel injection system, enabling real-time control of fuel injection quantity and timing based on operating conditions. These engines utilize sensors for RPM, throttle pedal position, injection timing, intake air temperature, intake air pressure, fuel temperature, and coolant temperature. The real-time data collected by these sensors is input into the computer (ECU), where it is compared with pre-stored parameter values or parameter maps (MAP). After processing and calculation, commands are sent to the actuators based on optimal values or calculated target values.

What does AC mean? Do I need to press it for heating?

AC is the air conditioning cooling button. Pressing this button activates the compressor of the air conditioning system. In winter, when the car's air conditioning is needed for heating, there is no need to turn on AC because the required warm air is generated through the heat conversion of the engine's coolant. Here is some extended information: 1. Introduction: Simply put, the car AC switch is the cooling switch for the air conditioning system. AC stands for "Air-conditioning," meaning air conditioning device. This button controls the activation and deactivation of the compressor, and the car air conditioning's cooling function relies on the operation of the compressor. 2. Function: The car AC key is the switch for the car's air conditioning. In other words, only when this key is pressed will the air conditioning compressor work, and the air blown out by the blower will be cold. When the weather is hot and you need to turn on the air conditioning to cool down, press the AC button, and the car air conditioning compressor will start working, blowing cold air from the vents to lower the temperature inside the car.

Can Traffic Light Violation Points Be Transferred to Others?

Traffic light violation points cannot be transferred to others. The person involved must handle the matter in person using their own ID card. If the vehicle management office discovers any violations, the driver's license may be revoked, and in severe cases, the offender may even face detention. Methods to avoid running red lights while driving: Pay attention to the arrow signal when available; otherwise, observe the circular signal. When the red light is on, ensure the front of the vehicle does not cross the stop line. When the yellow light is on, ensure the front of the vehicle does not cross the stop line. When the green light just starts flashing, if you are close and moving fast, you should proceed, as stopping might be difficult, potentially causing you to cross the stop line. If you are far away, moving slowly, or the intersection is congested, you should stop the vehicle. When driving in the city, develop the habit of looking for traffic lights whenever you see a crosswalk or stop line and approaching an intersection, and carefully observe the traffic light signals.

What is the reason why the screen does not switch to the reversing camera when reversing?

The wiring and switch of the reversing camera have poor contact: If the connecting cable between the camera and the vehicle display screen falls off, or the switch of the reversing camera is damaged, it will affect the display of the reversing camera. In such cases, the wiring needs to be reconnected, and if necessary, a new switch can be replaced. Additional information: The image displayed by the reversing camera is captured in real-time by the rear camera. Due to the distortion of the camera's imaging, it is easy for the driver to misjudge the distance to obstacles. Therefore, when judging the distance, the more accurate distance feedback from the reversing radar should be used as the reference.

Where to Register for a Designated Driver Certificate?

To obtain a designated driver certificate, one must hold a driver's license of at least Class C and have more than three years of driving experience. This requirement primarily considers the need for a three-year safe driving record to apply for a road transport practitioner qualification certificate. Below is relevant information about designated driving: 1. Designated Driving: It refers to a professional driver taking over the driving to safely transport friends who are not in a condition to drive, along with their car, back home. In China, as an emerging profession, it has garnered widespread attention. Designated driving services provide a relatively safe option for friends temporarily unable to drive, also objectively promoting the implementation of the National Road Traffic Safety Law. 2. Liability Determination: According to Article 9 of the 'Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Personal Injury Compensation Cases,' if an employee causes harm to others during employment activities, the employer shall bear the liability for compensation; if the employee causes harm due to intentional misconduct or gross negligence, they shall bear joint and several liability with the employer. The employer, after bearing joint and several liability, may seek recourse from the employee.
