Reverse parking generally doesn't have a strict rule on the number of steering wheel turns, but experienced drivers usually turn the steering wheel 1/4 turn when reversing, which helps to park the car more quickly. Precautions for reverse parking: Whether you're a beginner or an experienced driver, this is a crucial point to note. Not only should you avoid pressing the accelerator while reversing, but you should also avoid half-pressing the brake. Beginners, in particular, should drive at a speed slower than idle speed when reversing. This allows more time to observe the surroundings. Basic essentials of reverse parking: When entering a parking lot to park, first, visually estimate the width of the parking space, check for any obstacles behind, whether there are cars parked on either side, and if the length suits your vehicle model. If visibility is poor at night, step out to check the exact position before reversing.

Is the Vehicle and Vessel Tax Related to Engine Displacement?

Vehicle and vessel tax is related to engine displacement, but it does not have a significant impact on the amount of tax payable. The vehicle and vessel tax collection standard is a measure of how much tax is levied. Since the vehicle and vessel tax is a local tax, in addition to complying with the "Interim Regulations of the People's Republic of China on Vehicle and Vessel Tax" and other regulations, the collection standard should also be determined according to the specific management measures formulated by local tax bureaus. Vehicle owners can pay the vehicle and vessel tax at the same time as purchasing compulsory traffic insurance. For passenger vehicles with an engine displacement of 1 liter or less, the vehicle and vessel tax should be levied according to the tax standard for mini passenger vehicles. Additionally, energy-saving vehicles are subject to a 50% reduction in vehicle and vessel tax, while new energy vehicles and vessels are exempt from the tax. The "Vehicle and Vessel Tax" refers to a property tax levied on vehicles and vessels registered with public security, transportation, agriculture, fisheries, military, and other administrative departments in China, calculated based on their type, prescribed tax basis, and annual tax standards. Since July 1, 2007, vehicle owners have been required to pay the vehicle and vessel tax when purchasing compulsory traffic insurance. Starting from August 1, 2018, energy-saving and emission-reducing vehicles that meet the standards are subject to a 50% reduction in vehicle and vessel tax.

How to solve the high water temperature issue in an old GL8?

If the car's water temperature is too high, you should not continue driving. First, find a safe place to stop, then turn on the hazard lights. After parking the car, open the engine hood to increase air circulation, which helps cool down the engine as quickly as possible. Check if the coolant level is sufficient. If it's low, do not add coolant immediately. It should be added when the engine is cold.
