Car seat belt production dates can be found in two locations: 1. The vehicle manual contains information such as the safety inspection certification mark, manufacturer, production date, and labor safety protection product license for the seat belts; 2. The label at the end of the seat belt displays the car brand logo, QR code, production date, and seat belt code. Car seat belts, also known as safety belts, are a type of occupant restraint system designed to secure passengers during collisions, preventing secondary impacts with the steering wheel or dashboard, or being ejected from the vehicle, thereby reducing injuries and fatalities. They are an effective safety device.

I help fellow car enthusiasts locate the production date of seat belts, usually by checking the labels or tags on the belts. Here's how: There's a small label at the base or end of the seat belt that displays the production date, typically in a year-week format, such as 2423 indicating the 23rd week of 2024. This can be hard to spot—you might need to pull the belt or use a flashlight for a closer look. Some models have the label near the shoulder adjuster. Seat belts are made of fiber materials and may degrade over time, affecting their safety performance. It's recommended to inspect them every 10 years or so. The production date helps you gauge the belt's age, and if in doubt, you can have it tested at a professional shop. Remember, safety is no small matter; making it a habit to check these details is crucial for driving protection.

I discovered the production date of the seatbelt purely by chance: while washing my car, I flipped open the label at the base of the seatbelt and noticed a small line of text reading '2405,' which I later learned represents May 2024 production. In fact, many cars are like this, with the label located at the connection point between the seatbelt and the anchor, sometimes hidden in the stitching—you have to press in with your finger to see it. My car is five years old, and after comparing the dates, I decided to replace the seatbelt because fiber aging can reduce tensile strength. After checking, jot down the date or take a photo for reference. If the label is worn and unreadable, it's advisable to consult the dealer's manual for information. By the way, avoid using harsh cleaners on seatbelts, as they can accelerate degradation.

Can people with red-green color weakness obtain a driver's license?

People with red-green color weakness can obtain a driver's license. According to the physical condition requirements for driver's license applicants in the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," applicants must not have red-green color blindness, but there are no restrictions for those with red-green color weakness. If someone is color blind, specifically red-green color blind, they cannot apply for a driver's license. Color weakness only means a reduced ability to distinguish colors, but individuals can still differentiate between red and green. Unlike color blindness, where certain or all colors cannot be distinguished, people with color weakness generally have almost the same color recognition ability as normal individuals when colors are highly saturated or under sufficient lighting. Therefore, there are no restrictions for color weakness in obtaining a driver's license.

What is the normal color of engine oil?

The normal color of engine oil mainly depends on its composition. The base material of engine oil is mineral oil, and after adding various additives, the color can vary. Common colors include light yellow transparent, brown transparent, and reddish-brown transparent. New engine oil must be translucent, and when poured, it will exhibit a continuous, unbroken flow. High-quality engine oil has indistinct oil ring boundaries and appears very transparent. After some use, the oil ring color may darken slightly, and the oil ring spreads wider. For engine oil that has been used for a longer period, noticeable deposits can be seen in the middle of the oil ring, and the color becomes darker. As the engine oil continues to be used, its color will progressively darken and eventually turn black.

How to Maintain the Motor of a Hybrid Electric Vehicle?

Maintenance methods for the motor of a hybrid electric vehicle: 1. Regularly lubricate the gears, bearings, and deceleration components of the electric vehicle motor. If the gears and bearing inner/outer sleeves are excessively worn, the shock-absorbing plates are deformed, or the spring performance is degraded or broken, the regulator should be replaced; 2. Frequently charge the electric vehicle battery to maintain sufficient voltage, preventing motor overheating due to insufficient voltage and accelerating motor aging; 3. Check the wear level of the electric vehicle's brushes and commutator. Most brushes should be replaced when worn to 4-5mm from the lead wire. The commutator surface should be replaced if the depth exceeds 0.5mm. For motors in normal use, regardless of the wear level, brushes and commutators should be replaced regularly (typically every two years); 4. For both brushed and brushless electric vehicle motors, excessive input current can generally affect performance. The motor's voltage is supplied by the regulator, and aging electronic components in the regulator can cause an increase in the current input to the motor. Therefore, the regulator must be inspected and replaced if necessary.
