Small cars should be inspected twice a year after 15 years. This is because cars around 15 years old are more likely to have safety hazards in terms of performance. Below is relevant information about vehicle annual inspections: 1. Passenger transport vehicles: Inspected once a year within the first 5 years; after 5 years, inspected every 6 months. 2. Trucks and large/medium-sized non-passenger transport vehicles: Inspected once a year within the first 10 years; after 10 years, inspected every 6 months. 3. Small and mini non-passenger transport vehicles: Inspected once every 2 years within the first 6 years; after 6 years, inspected once a year; after 15 years, inspected every 6 months. 4. Exemption policy: 6-seat and smaller family vehicles enjoy a 6-year exemption from inspections. The prerequisite for the 6-year exemption is that no major traffic accidents occur during this period. If an accident occurs, an on-site inspection is mandatory. 7-seat and larger vehicles do not qualify for the 6-year exemption policy and must still be inspected every 2 years during the first 6 years.

Can the Wuling Hongguang Carry 2000 Jin?

Under normal circumstances, the Wuling Hongguang minivan can carry 2000 jin of cargo. However, generally speaking, to carry 2000 jin of goods, the rear seats must be removed. According to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," removing the rear seats of a minivan for cargo transportation constitutes unauthorized alteration of the motor vehicle's registered structure, construction, or characteristics, and if caught by traffic police, it may result in a fine. Below are the consequences of vehicle overloading: (1) Vehicle overloading severely damages road infrastructure. Due to the load of overloaded vehicles far exceeding the design load of roads and bridges, it leads to road surface damage, bridge fractures, and significantly shortens their service life. (2) Overloaded vehicles have increased mass and inertia, longer braking distances, and higher risks. If severely overloaded, it can cause tire blowouts, sudden deviation, brake failure, rollovers, and other accidents due to excessive tire load and deformation. Additionally, overloading affects the vehicle's steering performance, making it prone to accidents due to loss of steering control. (3) Drivers of overloaded vehicles often experience increased psychological burden and stress, leading to operational errors, affecting driving safety, and causing traffic accidents. (4) Overloaded vehicles cannot reach normal speeds, occupying lanes for extended periods, directly affecting road traffic flow.

Does installing a roof rack on an SUV require registration?

Installing a roof rack on an SUV requires registration, but if the total height of the rack does not exceed 30cm from the top of the car, you can update the photo on the vehicle registration certificate. SUV stands for Sports Utility Vehicle, which is different from Off-Road Vehicles (ORV) designed for rough terrain. Here is some relevant information about SUVs: 1. Product Features: SUVs are characterized by strong power, off-road capability, spacious comfort, and excellent cargo and passenger-carrying functions. Some say that SUVs combine the comfort and refinement of luxury sedans with the rugged nature of off-road vehicles. SUVs are a hybrid of sedans and off-road vehicles, offering greater advantages compared to their predecessors. 2. History: SUVs originated in the United States. Since 2003, SUVs have consistently topped the list of best-selling models because they are suitable for both city driving and off-road adventures, aligning well with the personality of the new generation that seeks individuality and a love for nature.

What to Do When the Car Shows Low Tire Pressure?

There are generally three methods to eliminate the low tire pressure warning light: The first is to check and confirm whether the tire pressure is normal. If there is a problem, adjust it to the standard tire pressure, then drive a few kilometers on the road. Usually, the computer will automatically correct and reset at this point. The second method, when confirming that the tire pressure is normal, is to go to an auto service shop to check the tire pressure sensor and clear the fault code. The third method requires finding the setup button on the central console for manual reset, usually by pressing the SET button. Tire pressure reset method: First, turn on the ignition switch, press and hold the tire pressure monitoring reset button until you hear a "beep," then release it. The tire pressure monitoring system will store the current normal tire pressure data, automatically clear the original data, and finally, the fault light on the dashboard will go out, completing the tire pressure reset.

Can the dotted line be crossed during parallel parking?

Yes, you can. Here are detailed instructions about parallel parking: During parallel parking, it's essential to carefully observe the left and right rearview mirrors as well as the interior rearview mirror to accurately gauge the distance between your car's rear end and the vehicle behind or the wall. Safety is the top priority; speed is not important. Don't panic if you temporarily block the vehicle behind you. Since the rearview mirrors are convex: this design provides a wider field of view but also distorts the perceived distance between objects. So when you observe the rear of your car in the mirror and think you're about to scrape the wall, there might actually be a considerable distance remaining.
