Driving the wrong way on a roundabout is also considered driving against traffic. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," driving against traffic in a motor vehicle results in a fine and a deduction of 3 points. The penalty for driving against traffic depends on two scenarios: 1. On urban roads and other roads, 3 points are deducted, and a fine is imposed. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security), motor vehicle drivers committing any of the following violations will have 3 points deducted: overtaking, yielding, or driving against traffic without following regulations. 2. On highways, 12 points are deducted, a fine is imposed, and the driver's license may be suspended for twelve months. According to Article 25 of the "Traffic Management Measures for Highways of the People's Republic of China," motor vehicle drivers violating these measures by committing any of the following acts will be fined and may have their driver's license suspended for twelve months: driving a motor vehicle prohibited from entering the highway onto the highway; overtaking or changing lanes without following regulations, etc.

How to install a car ETC?

Car ETC needs to be installed by professional staff. The ETC should be affixed to the middle of the front windshield, directly behind the rearview mirror inside the car, to prevent obstructing the driver's view. The installation position of the ETC must not block the solar panel, as the electronic tag consumes power. However, it does not need to be charged during normal use because the ETC comes with a built-in solar panel, which automatically charges as long as there is sunlight. After installing the ETC, the owner must not remove it arbitrarily, as the electronic tag will become invalid if the ETC is removed. There is an anti-removal mark on the back of the ETC. If the ETC is accidentally removed, the owner must go to the customer service center to have it reactivated by staff. Otherwise, the ETC will not work the next time the car passes through an ETC toll lane.

What is the purpose of wheel alignment for a car?

Wheel alignment for a car can enhance the vehicle's stability and improve its balance. Maintaining proper wheel alignment angles ensures the vehicle's straight-line tracking, handling, and steering system responsiveness. It prevents improper bearing stress and loss of precision, ensures tight contact between the tires and the road, reduces irregular tire wear, and guarantees stability during turns. Wheel alignment is divided into front-wheel alignment and rear-wheel alignment. Front-wheel alignment includes four aspects: caster angle, kingpin inclination angle, camber angle, and toe-in. Rear-wheel alignment includes camber angle and individual rear-wheel toe-in.

Can I drive without carrying my driver's license?

You cannot drive without carrying your driver's license. Forgetting to bring your driver's license will also result in penalties. While you won't be detained for forgetting your license, if your vehicle is temporarily impounded, it will only be returned after you present your driver's license. However, you will face a fine and have one point deducted from your license. Additionally, driving without a license while violating traffic rules will also be penalized. According to Chinese law: If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display a license plate, inspection sticker, insurance sticker, or if the driver does not carry the vehicle registration certificate or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security organ shall impound the vehicle and require the driver to provide the corresponding documents, stickers, or complete the necessary procedures.
