This does not depend on the car, but on the person. The car does not get tired; it can run continuously for four or five hours as long as there is fuel, which is not a problem. Precautions before driving on the highway: It is recommended to check the vehicle's oil, water, and electricity before driving on the highway. On the highway, it is advisable to take a 20-minute break every 2 hours, which is beneficial for both the car and the driver. It is not recommended to drive continuously at around 140 km/h for long periods, as it is not only very fuel-consuming but also unsafe. Controlling the speed between 90 and 110 km/h is the most fuel-efficient and allows for long-distance driving. Fuel consumption considerations when driving on the highway: Another critical issue when driving long distances is fuel consumption. Nowadays, many highway service areas have gas stations, so there is no need to worry too much if you run out of fuel midway. It is advisable to refuel when the fuel tank has about 20% of its capacity left, rather than waiting until the fuel gauge shows it is too low and rushing to find a gas station. After all, service areas are not available everywhere, and sometimes you may have to drive dozens of kilometers to find one. Running out of fuel midway can be very troublesome.

What is the only way to transfer a license plate number?

License plate numbers cannot be transferred. Vehicles can be transferred by going through the ownership transfer process, which requires both parties to bring the original and photocopy of the seller's ID card, the original and photocopy of the buyer's ID card (for corporate entities, an organization code certificate is required), and other necessary documents. However, the license plate number cannot be transferred as part of this process. The original license plate can only be reassigned to the owner's new vehicle and cannot be transferred to another person. If the license plate number is reassigned to another vehicle, it will remain the property of the original owner for six months, after which the plate will be returned to the license plate resource pool. Selling a license plate separately is illegal. If only the vehicle is sold, the license plate must be returned to the vehicle management department by law, and it will be reassigned to a new car buyer by the department.
