You cannot drive for ride-hailing services with less than one year of driving license. Here are the relevant details: 1. Requirements for ride-hailing drivers: According to national regulations, drivers must obtain a motor vehicle driver's license for the corresponding vehicle type and have at least 3 years of driving experience; no records of traffic crime, dangerous driving crime, drug use, or drunk driving, and no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in any of the last 3 scoring cycles. Drivers or ride-hailing platform companies must apply to the municipal-level transportation authorities in the service area. 2. Ride-hailing platforms: Ride-hailing platform companies must ensure that the vehicles provided have legal operating qualifications, are in good technical condition, have reliable safety performance, possess relevant insurance for operating vehicles, and ensure that the vehicles provided online match those provided offline. They must also report vehicle-related information to the local transportation authorities. Ride-hailing platform companies must ensure that drivers have legal professional qualifications and sign various forms of labor contracts or agreements with drivers in accordance with relevant laws and regulations, specifying the rights and obligations of both parties based on working hours and service frequency.

I just got my driver's license about half a year ago and have been thinking about driving for ride-hailing platforms to earn extra income. However, I found that platforms like Didi require drivers to have held a license for at least one year. After checking the terms, I think this rule makes sense since inexperienced drivers are more prone to accidents. I don't want to force my way in, so I plan to wait patiently until I meet the one-year requirement before applying. For now, I'm driving my private car more often to practice, getting familiar with local routes and traffic congestion points. I've also downloaded a safe driving app to learn emergency handling skills. This time isn't wasted—accumulating mileage will boost my confidence. Some areas might require even more experience, but I'll focus on meeting the basic requirements first. Safety always comes first, and I'll officially join the platform by the end of the year.

What are the reasons for high car water temperature?

The reasons for high car water temperature: 1. Thermostat failure; 2. Cooling fan not working, which could be due to the temperature control switch not opening or the water temperature sensor malfunctioning; 3. Water pump failure, where the impeller slips or gets stuck, causing the belt to break; 4. Insufficient cooling medium, such as low coolant level or radiator leakage; 5. Incorrect ignition timing and high oil pressure, leading to a discrepancy between the water temperature gauge reading and the actual temperature. When cooling down, never pour cold water on the engine, as this may cause the engine block to crack due to sudden cooling. The correct method is: wear gloves, place a multi-folded wet cloth over the radiator cap, gently unscrew the cap a small gap, wait for the steam to slowly escape, and after the radiator pressure drops, add cold water or antifreeze.

What is generally done during the first maintenance?

The first maintenance at a 4S shop includes the following aspects: changing the engine oil and oil filter, cleaning the air filter; checking whether the levels of various fluids are normal, inspecting the generator belt and wiper blades for damage; checking whether the tire pressure is normal and if there is any uneven wear, bulging, or damage to the tires; inspecting the chassis, including the brake pads, brake discs, connecting rods, ball joints, CV joints, and any scratches; checking all the switches in the vehicle; and ensuring the lights are functioning properly. Estimated time: Completing all tasks takes about 2 hours. Items needed for the first maintenance include: driver's license; maintenance manual; warranty manual; owner's ID card; vehicle registration certificate; and the vehicle purchase invoice. Take these to the designated first maintenance facility for the vehicle. Note: Make an appointment with the 4S shop in advance. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after the new car has been driven. The specific timing varies by vehicle, usually after driving 1,000 to 3,000 kilometers. The car must undergo the first maintenance on time, neither early nor delayed. The completion of the first maintenance marks the end of the car's break-in period, allowing it to be driven under standard load and normal speed as required by the vehicle. The timing of the first maintenance is calculated from the date of vehicle pickup. There are two indicator values for the first maintenance: mileage and time. Whichever comes first will be the standard. The following inspections and replacements must be completed during the first maintenance of a new car: changing the engine oil, cleaning the three filters (oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter); checking whether the coolant level is normal; inspecting the brake and clutch fluid levels; checking the power steering fluid level and for any leaks at the pipe connections; inspecting the generator, air conditioning, water pump, and belts for aging and tension; checking tire pressure and wear, inflating the tires, and rotating them if necessary. When changing the oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. The choice of oil must refer to the "Vehicle Use and Maintenance Manual," as different vehicle models specify different oil grades. Maintenance precautions: Do not wash the interior of the car with water: Many people clean their cars during holidays, washing the body with water and wiping it with a cloth. It is important to note that the interior of the car should not be directly washed with water. If the floor mats are dirty, use a vacuum cleaner or take them out, scrub them with a brush and detergent, dry them, and then put them back. There are many holes under the rubber mats on the cabin floor. If water enters, it will not dry but will flow through the holes to areas like the transmission, causing corrosion. The best practice is to clean with a vacuum cleaner and then wipe with a cloth to prevent water accumulation. Do not mix different brands of antifreeze: When the antifreeze in the car is low, it is recommended to drain the antifreeze and add the same brand from the beginning. Different brands of antifreeze have different chemical properties. The corrosion inhibitors in one brand may corrode those in another. Different brands of antifreeze use different corrosion inhibitors, so they should not be mixed to avoid unnecessary trouble. Do not lubricate tire bolts and nuts: When bolts on a moving car rust, they are often oiled to function properly again. Some people apply lubricant to the bolts and nuts to prevent rust, but this can pose a safety risk. At high speeds, the bolts and nuts may loosen or even fall off, leading to driving failures. Do not press the accelerator when starting an electronic fuel injection car: The starter of an electronic fuel injection car is different from that of a regular car. Its fuel injection control device can automatically adjust the fuel supply based on the starter's temperature and operating conditions, ensuring smooth starting.
