Non-on-site traffic violations mainly include dynamic violations and static violations. Driving against traffic is a dynamic violation, which is generally recorded through snapshots, while some road sections use surveillance videos for recording. Here is more relevant information: Penalties for driving against traffic: According to relevant regulations, motor vehicle drivers who violate prohibition signs or markings, fail to overtake or yield as required, or drive against traffic will be penalized with 3 demerit points and a fine of 200 RMB. If driving against traffic occurs on a highway, the penalty is 12 demerit points, a 200 RMB fine, and possible suspension of the driver's license for twelve months.

To be honest, having driven for many years, I often chat with friends about fines for wrong-way driving. To know if you've been caught, the most straightforward way is to check if there's a flash from the traffic cameras on the wrong-way lane, especially at night or in low-light conditions where the camera flash is very noticeable. If you don't see a flash, don't relax too much, as many new cameras now use infrared or low-key modes without flashing. I recommend waiting three to five days and checking your phone messages or email, as traffic violation notices usually arrive by then. To be more proactive, download a local traffic app like "Traffic Management 12123," where you can enter your license plate number to check violation records in real-time—it's convenient and worry-free. From experience, I can also say that cameras are often placed at intersections, highway entrances, or near school zones. Paying attention to road signs and surveillance markers while driving can help avoid a lot of trouble. Remember, wrong-way driving is risky—fines, points deducted, and damage to your car are all possible. Safe driving is the right way to go.

In my spare time, I enjoy studying traffic technology and understand some camera working principles. To know if you've been caught running a red light, it depends on the camera type: when triggered by radar or induction loops, there might be a flash signal which is easily noticeable; but the latest infrared cameras have no light emission, making them more stealthy. I recommend checking for violations through official channels like traffic management apps or websites as soon as possible after the incident. Just enter your license plate and personal information to view records, which are usually updated within a week after the violation. From a practical perspective, I'll add that these cameras are often installed at accident-prone spots like intersections or tunnel entrances. You can check surveillance areas in advance using map apps. Develop a habit of regularly checking for violations - don't wait until the ticket arrives to regret it. Safe travel is important, and following rules can reduce such worries.

As a young driver, I've made mistakes in the past by rushing. To know if you've been caught for a wrong-way action, check for details: was there a flash? If yes, you're likely caught. But don't panic if there's no flash. The most reliable way is to check for violations via a mobile app like Traffic Management 12123—just search your license plate. Waiting a few days for an SMS notification also works, and it's quick. I know cameras are mostly at intersections with surveillance signs; avoiding these spots can reduce risks. But honestly, fewer violations mean less hassle and expense.

Can a 5-seater SUV accommodate 6 people?

5-seater SUVs cannot accommodate six people. The regulation for five-seater vehicles stipulates that the maximum number of passengers, including the driver, is five. Exceeding this number (including the driver) constitutes an illegal act of overloading. According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law," violators will be fined and have 6 points deducted from their license. Below are the hazards of vehicle overloading: Increased risk of rollover: The more passengers are overloaded, the more the vehicle's center of gravity shifts, making it particularly prone to rollover during turns. Reduced braking performance: Inertia is related to the mass of an object. When braking, the vehicle relies on resistance to stop. The more overloaded the vehicle is, the greater its inertia becomes, making it harder to stop compared to normal conditions. Tire blowouts: Overloading causes the vehicle's tires to operate under excessive load continuously, increasing tire pressure and temperature, which significantly raises the risk of blowouts. Worsened accident outcomes: Under normal circumstances, each occupant in the vehicle has corresponding safety belts, seats, and other equipment. However, in cases of overloading, not everyone is properly equipped, making it impossible to avoid situations that could otherwise be mitigated in the event of an accident.

What are the new regulations for 5-seater vehicle annual inspections in 2021?

5-seater vehicle annual inspection new regulations for 2021 are as follows: Within 6 years: 7-9 seat non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (excluding vans) are included in the exemption range, exempt from on-site inspection within 6 years, only requiring application for inspection marks every two years. More than 6 years but less than 10 years: The inspection cycle for vehicles more than 6 years but less than 10 years is relaxed from annual inspection to biennial inspection, meaning private vehicles only need on-site inspection twice within 10 years, specifically in the 6th and 8th years. More than 10 years: For private vehicles more than 10 years old, the original inspection cycle still applies, i.e., annual inspection for 10-15 years, and semi-annual inspection for vehicles more than 15 years old.

How many liters of fuel can a 60-liter fuel tank hold?

A 60-liter fuel tank can hold up to 75 liters. The fuel tank is a container in a vehicle for storing fuel, specifically designed to hold hydraulic oil or fluid in a hydraulic system. Fuel tanks can be categorized into two types: open tanks and closed tanks. The fuel tank must have sufficient capacity. Below is an introduction to gasoline grades: 90-octane gasoline: Suitable for gasoline-powered vehicles with an engine compression ratio below 8.5. 92-octane gasoline: Suitable for gasoline-powered vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6 and 9.9. 95-octane gasoline: Suitable for gasoline-powered vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 10.0 and 11.5. 98-octane gasoline: Suitable for gasoline-powered vehicles with an engine compression ratio above 11.6.

What are the penalties for a 5-seat private car carrying 8 people under the new traffic regulations?

A 5-seat private car carrying 8 people is already considered overloading. According to the relevant provisions of the new Road Traffic Safety Law, driving with more than 20% of the approved number of passengers will result in a 12-point deduction. For private cars, overloading by just one person already exceeds 20%. A 5-seat private car carrying 8 people constitutes overloading by more than 20%. The following are the hazards of vehicle overloading: Increased risk of rollover: The more passengers are overloaded, the more the vehicle's center of gravity will shift, especially when turning, making the vehicle more prone to rollover. Weakened braking performance: Inertia is related to the mass of an object. When braking, the vehicle relies on resistance to stop. The more overloaded the vehicle is, the greater its inertia will be, making it harder to stop than usual. Tire blowout: Overloading causes the vehicle's tires to operate under excessive load continuously, increasing tire pressure and temperature, which can easily lead to tire blowouts. Worsened accidents: Under normal circumstances, every member in the car has corresponding safety belts, seats, and other equipment, but overloading means not everyone has these. In the event of an accident, situations that could have been avoided may now be unavoidable.

How Many Spark Plugs Should Be Replaced at Once?

Automobile spark plugs should be replaced four at a time, meaning all of them should be changed. Theoretically, even if you replace just one with the same brand and model, the discharge gap and resistance of the new and old spark plugs will differ. Not replacing all of them can lead to issues such as engine shaking, difficulty in acceleration, and increased fuel consumption. This is because differences among spark plugs cause variations in ignition timing and energy, resulting in an imbalance in power among the four cylinders. Currently, the common electrode materials on the market include copper, nickel alloy, platinum, and iridium. The electrical conductivity of these metals increases from left to right, while the voltage required for ignition decreases from left to right. Therefore, precious metal spark plugs place less load on the engine and are beneficial for reducing fuel consumption.
