I've seen many traffic violation cases, and forgetting to fasten the seatbelt usually results in a 2-point deduction and a fine of around 200 yuan. That time I was in a hurry and didn't buckle up, got caught during inspection, and ended up with both points deducted and a fine—felt really frustrated. Actually, seatbelts aren't just about avoiding fines; they can save lives in critical moments. For example, in a high-speed accident without a seatbelt, you could be thrown out or suffer internal injuries. Developing the habit is simple: buckle up as soon as you get in the car. Once it becomes second nature, you won’t forget. Also, it’s not just the driver—passengers must buckle up too, or they’ll face the same penalties. I suggest putting a visible sticker in the car as a reminder, so you don’t lose points and money over something small. Safety first—don’t take this lightly!

Can a Purchased Driver's License with Records Be Used?

Purchased driver's licenses with records cannot be used because these records are mainly based on copying others' driver's license information. Although criminals can generate highly realistic records, the relevant information cannot be uploaded to the vehicle management office's data center. Once discovered, the deception will be exposed immediately. Moreover, purchasing a driver's license itself is illegal. Therefore, it is recommended that car owners obtain their licenses through legal channels. Below is relevant information about driver's licenses: License Issuance Time: If the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the six-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, the license will be renewed with a ten-year validity period. If the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the ten-year validity period, the license will be renewed with a long-term validity. Examination Content: The test subjects include three items: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving). Each subject requires prior appointment before taking the test (special circumstances may be scheduled through the driving test green channel).

Is a Water-Submerged Car Considered Totaled?

Automobiles submerged in water are not necessarily considered totaled. Generally, water-damaged vehicles are categorized into three different levels: If the water level exceeds the car's chassis, it is referred to as a water-immersed vehicle; if the water level surpasses the oil dipstick, it can be termed a semi-submerged vehicle; and if the water level has gone beyond the engine hood or the dashboard panel, then it is called a fully submerged vehicle. Here are the recommended actions for a water-submerged car: 1. Do not attempt to start the vehicle after it has been submerged in water; 2. Call for a rescue tow truck and inform your insurance company of the repair shop location where the car will be taken, so that the claims adjuster can assess the damage; 3. While waiting for rescue, if conditions permit, disconnect the vehicle's power, shift into neutral, and push the car to a safe location.

Can Water-Damaged Leather Seats Be Restored?

Generally, water-damaged leather seats can be restored. Since genuine leather has certain waterproof properties, if the surface shows no signs of swelling or loosening, simple treatment followed by air drying can restore them. However, if the seats have been soaked for an extended period with severe water saturation, leading to swelling and loosening of the leather, professional restoration at an auto detailing center may be required. After leather seats are soaked in water, use a damp cloth with neutral or alkaline cleaning products to gently wipe the seat surface and remove any stains. For stubborn stains, slightly increase the proportion of cleaner. After cleaning, use a soft towel to dry the surface moisture and allow the seats to air dry naturally. During the drying process, avoid using a hair dryer for quick drying or exposing the seats to direct sunlight, as this can damage the leather. Leather seat maintenance tips: Regularly clean leather seats using neutral or alkaline cleaning products, and avoid chemical cleaners with unknown ingredients to prevent leather corrosion. It's best to park the car indoors to minimize sun exposure and prevent the leather from drying out and cracking.

Replacement of wear-and-tear parts and fluids such as power steering fluid, along with checking the remaining lifespan of components. Below are relevant details: The wear-and-tear parts of a vehicle include brake pads, tires, wiper blades, brake rotors, various filters, spark plugs, ignition coils, etc. The vehicle's fluids include engine oil, transmission fluid, coolant, brake fluid, and power steering fluid. 1. During vehicle maintenance, the primary focus is on replacing wear-and-tear parts and fluids.

How Many Months Should You Not Exceed When Buying Tires?

New tires should not be purchased if they have been in storage for more than three years after production. According to the domestic trade industry standard "Technical Specifications for Tire Claims," the claim period (including unused tires and those under normal use) is calculated from the production date of the tire, with a three-year period being the valid claim duration. The domestic trade industry standard "Specifications for Tire Marketing Management" further stipulates that tire dealers should not sell tires that are not eligible for claims. Below is relevant information: Specific reasons: The aging of rubber products like tires leads to significant changes in their physical properties, such as tensile strength, hardness, and wear resistance. The aforementioned industry standards are linked to the general lifespan limits of tires, reflecting the common consensus in the tire distribution industry regarding quality control. Additional information: Every tire has a production date, and it is important to be aware of your tire's usage period and mileage. Exceeding this period or mileage can result in severe tire wear, potentially compromising their ability to perform adequately. Therefore, it is crucial to keep track of your vehicle's tire production dates to avoid potential issues.
