How long nail polish touch-up can last mainly depends on the type and quality of the nail polish. The duration varies, but typically it only lasts for a few days. Nail polish has a certain corrosive effect on car paint, as it is essentially made from nitrocellulose combined with chemical solvents such as acetone, ethyl acetate, ethyl lactate, and phthalic anhydride. Below are the methods for treating car paint surface scratches: Light Scratches: For light scratches, simply prepare a tube of toothpaste. Toothpaste is highly effective for shallow scratches that do not damage the car's primer. Hairline Scratches: Hairline scratches can generally be removed by polishing or applying a rubbing compound. A gentle wipe is usually enough to make the hairline scratches disappear. Moderate Scratches: Moderate scratches cannot be repaired by polishing. For small dents not exceeding 5mm, they can be leveled by filling with putty before applying touch-up paint. Deep Scratches: More severe deformations require bodywork (panel beating). Scratch repair demands high technical skills from the technician. With advanced techniques, your beloved car can be restored to its original appearance in the shortest time possible.

Can ETC be removed?

ETC can be removed after installation. However, if the ETC device is removed by yourself, it will become invalid because the ETC device has an anti-tamper function. There is a small switch on the back of the ETC electronic tag. Once it is peeled off from the windshield, the internal switch will automatically close. Therefore, you must bring the vehicle registration certificate to the ETC service provider for reactivation. ETC charging principle: There will be one or more ETC lanes on the highway. Through the dedicated short-range microwave communication between the vehicle-mounted electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, the computer network technology is used to settle accounts with the bank, achieving the purpose of paying the road and bridge tolls without stopping at the toll station. All of this is based on the principle of passing first and deducting fees later. Benefits of installing ETC: Save time: eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and environmentally friendly: green and low-carbon, vehicles passing through the toll station without stopping can reduce noise and exhaust emissions, reducing pollution; Save wear and tear: save costs, reduce the frequency of vehicle starts and brakes, reduce wear and fuel consumption, and users can also enjoy a 5% discount on tolls; Improve efficiency: the efficiency of passing through ETC lanes can theoretically be increased by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC more updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Comprehensive Transportation System" that "by 2020, the intercommunication of transportation cards in key urban agglomerations will be basically realized, and the proportion of vehicles equipped with ETC will be significantly increased," and clearly proposed in the main indicators of the "13th Five-Year" comprehensive transportation development that "by 2020, the ETC usage rate of road passenger vehicles will reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and the usage rate of ETC passenger vehicles, the future will also promote the use of ETC for trucks and explore the deep integration of the ETC system with the development directions of smart transportation such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination, providing comprehensive travel services for car owners. This means that more application scenarios will support ETC applications.

How many days can a car be uninsured?

A car cannot be uninsured for more than 3 months. If the insurance premium is paid within 3 months, you can enjoy priority treatment upon renewal. However, if the period exceeds 3 months, there will be no discount, and the price will be calculated based on the discount for new insurance. Car insurance can be refunded, but two conditions must be met: first, the policy must be valid. Second, the car must not have been reported to or claimed from the insurance company. If there are no traffic accidents, there will be a discount when renewing the insurance. However, if the insurance is not renewed for a certain period, the discount cannot be enjoyed. According to the no-claim priority clause, if there are no claims for three consecutive years, the premium can be discounted by 30%. If there are no claims for one or two consecutive years, discounts of 10% and 20% can be given, respectively. Documents required for renewal: copy of the insured's organization code, copy of the insured's ID, original ID of the insurance applicant, vehicle certification, copy of the driver's 'Motor Vehicle Driving License', car purchase invoice or fixed asset accounting voucher, car purchase invoice or fixed asset accounting voucher.

Can you turn right when the straight light is red without a dedicated right-turn signal?

In this situation, you can generally turn right directly, as most intersections allow right turns without obeying the red light. However, some intersections do require drivers to observe the traffic signal for right turns. These intersections typically have signs to alert drivers and may feature dedicated right-turn traffic signals. Be cautious when approaching such intersections—turning right when the right-turn signal is red may result in fines and penalty points. Here are some relevant guidelines: Do not drink and drive: Avoid driving under the influence of alcohol and refrain from speeding. Activate your turn signal in advance: Always use your turn signal before changing lanes or turning, and avoid crossing solid lane markings.

Why Does a Manual Transmission Stall?

Manual transmission stalls primarily due to improper clutch control. Here are the relevant details: Stalling at startup: This mostly happens when the left foot lifts the clutch too abruptly or the right foot fails to apply throttle in time. The key is to gradually lift the left foot off the clutch while gently pressing the throttle with the right foot before the clutch is fully released. When the clutch reaches the engagement point, you'll feel the car start to creep forward—this is when to apply more throttle with the right foot and fully release the clutch with the left. Stalling while driving: Often caused by being in a high gear at low speed. Many beginners forget to shift to neutral when braking, neglecting to downshift. There's no trick to this; it's about forming the habit through practice and repetition.
