Exceeding the speed limit by more than 10% but less than 20% will result in 3 penalty points. Within 10% of the speed limit: No penalty will be imposed for exceeding the speed limit by less than 10%. Exceeding 20% of the speed limit: Exceeding the speed limit by more than 20% but less than 50% will result in 6 penalty points. Exceeding 50% of the speed limit: Exceeding the speed limit by more than 50% will result in 12 penalty points; the traffic management department of the public security organ shall detain the motor vehicle driving license.

I'm always very careful about speeding when driving myself. Exceeding the speed limit by less than 20% usually results in 3 penalty points. For example, if the highway speed limit is 120 km/h, driving around 135 km/h falls into this category. Last year, I was in a hurry and slightly exceeded the limit, got caught by a speed camera, and was directly penalized with 3 points plus a 200 yuan fine. This rule is mainly to ensure safety, as even a slight overspeed can significantly increase braking distance, especially on slippery roads where it's easy to skid and cause accidents. I usually use a mobile navigation app to remind me of speed limits to avoid oversight. Also, the penalty point system resets 12 points annually, and if all points are deducted, you have to attend traffic rule classes and retake the test, which is too much hassle. I recommend everyone develop the habit of controlling speed and not exceeding limits—it's worry-free and safe, especially for the sake of family and passengers.

As a long-distance driver, it's clear in traffic regulations that speeding less than 20% results in 3 penalty points. I've experienced this myself on highways - driving 115 in a 100 zone cost me 3 points. The key is staying updated on local regulation changes, as enforcement is stricter in big cities. Speeding doesn't just mean points; it also increases insurance rates. I advise new drivers to pay attention to speed limit signs rather than relying solely on navigation. Safety-wise, even small percentage increases in speed reduce reaction time, especially dangerous at night. Remember, with only 12 annual points, 3 might seem minor but can accumulate quickly. Regular vehicle maintenance, especially brake systems, is crucial to avoid unintentional speeding.

I remember when I first started learning to drive, I wasn't very clear about the rules. Later, I looked it up and found out that exceeding the speed limit by less than 20% results in 3 penalty points. For example, if the urban speed limit is 60 km/h and you drive over 70 km/h, you'll get 3 points. Recently, I was warned for speeding while rushing, and only then did I realize the consequences. Safety is crucial—higher speeds narrow your field of vision and significantly increase the risk of accidents. Now, I use a voice reminder app while driving to avoid developing a habit of speeding. The point system has limits; losing 3 points is relatively minor, but if you frequently violate rules and reach 12 points, you'll have to suspend your license and attend retraining, which is quite troublesome. I advise young drivers to practice steady driving techniques and not chase temporary speed.

Will looking down at the gear shift in Subject 2 result in penalty points?

Looking down at the gear shift in Subject 2 will result in penalty points. The following are precautions for vehicle operation: 1. Pre-departure inspection: Conduct a comprehensive vehicle check before daily departure, including checking for oil/water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure proper inflation, inspecting engine oil condition for normal color and appropriate level. 2. Safe driving: Always use seat belts correctly - their protective effect during severe collisions is comparable to airbags. Avoid fatigued driving and take breaks every 2 hours. 3. Traffic compliance: Especially on highways, do not speed - speeding not only risks traffic police penalties but more importantly compromises safety.

What is the situation when an automatic transmission car does not respond when shifting into reverse gear?

An automatic transmission car not responding when shifting into reverse gear is due to a malfunction or improper operation. Additional details are as follows: 1. Fault reasons: If components such as the transmission, oil pump, torque converter, control circuit, solenoid valve, or switch malfunction, the reverse gear may fail. 2. Operational reasons: If the electronic parking brake is not released or the gear shifting is not properly engaged, the reverse gear may also become ineffective. 3. Differences between the two types of transmissions: Manual transmission cars consume less fuel. In terms of driving safety, automatic transmission cars do not allow coasting in neutral and are superior to manual transmissions in vehicle control. Regarding the driving experience, automatic transmission cars are more convenient and easier to operate.

What does a small wrench on the dashboard mean?

A small wrench on the dashboard is a maintenance indicator light, which means the car needs maintenance, not that there is a fault with the car. Its main function is to remind the owner to perform maintenance on the vehicle. Not all vehicles have this function. For vehicles equipped with this feature, the manufacturer sets a parameter at the factory, and the "small wrench" will appear when the vehicle reaches a certain mileage. Typically, the maintenance cycle for a car is between 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers, with the factory-set cycle often exceeding 8,000 kilometers. The appearance of the small wrench symbol does not affect the normal operation of the vehicle, and the symbol will disappear after maintenance is performed.

Should the Seat Be Adjusted to See the Hood?

Seat should be adjusted to see the hood. Extended information is as follows: Manual transmission driving tips: 1. Do not frequently press the clutch: Habitually pressing the clutch is not only bad for the machine but also affects driving safety. When starting, slowly release the clutch, and the clutch should be completely released when the vehicle is moving. 2. Do not blindly pursue high gears: Driving does not require pursuing high gears. Each gear has its own function. First gear for starting, second gear for turning around, third gear for cornering. 3. Gear shifting: Generally, when driving in the city, keep the engine speed at around 2000 rpm. This can fully utilize good power and achieve an economical fuel consumption driving mode.

What should be noted when first obtaining a driver's license?

The following are precautions for first-time drivers: 1. Obey traffic laws: Do not drive too fast and minimize violations. You cannot drive on highways alone; an experienced driver must accompany you. 2. Display the required sign: A uniform-style probationary sign must be affixed or hung at the rear of the vehicle. For a Class C license, a maximum of 11 points can be deducted—if 12 points are deducted, the driving qualification will be revoked. For Class AB licenses, a maximum of 5 points can be deducted—if 6 points are deducted, the probationary period will be extended by one year, and if 12 points are deducted, the probationary driving qualification for the permitted vehicle type will be revoked. The first 12 months after a motor vehicle driver initially applies for a driver's license or adds a permitted vehicle type is the probationary period.
