A crack in the windshield is serious. The front windshield of a car bears varying pressures depending on the vehicle speed and wind speed. The faster the speed and wind, the greater the pressure on the glass. If not addressed promptly, the crack can extend under increasing pressure until it splits the entire glass in half, causing damage. The functions of car glass include: 1. Sheltering from wind and rain, and reducing noise; 2. Minimizing wind resistance and directing airflow; 3. Protecting the safety of passengers. Methods for maintaining car glass are: 1. Use specialized or suitable wiper blades and replace them in time; 2. Keep the windshield clean; 3. Use automotive-specific glass cleaner.

What to Do When Both Driver's License and ID Card Are Lost?

If both your driver's license and ID card are lost, you should promptly apply for replacements. Additional Information: Detailed steps for replacing driver's license and ID card are as follows: 1. Bring your household registration booklet to the local police station where your household is registered to apply for a replacement. While applying for a new ID card, also file a loss statement, which can effectively prevent you from being held responsible for any illegal activities conducted by someone else using your lost cards. 2. Obtain a temporary ID card at the police station. A temporary ID card can be collected on the same day of application at the household registration department of the local police station where your household is registered. You will need to present your household registration booklet and the ID card collection receipt, and also pay a processing fee. 3. Replace your driver's license. Once you have the temporary ID card, you can go to the vehicle management office to replace your driver's license. There is no need to report the loss of the driver's license, but you must fill out a written statement declaring the loss of the driver's license. This statement serves as proof that the license was lost and absolves you of any responsibility for consequences arising from its misuse.

Are Speed Cameras Active in Highway Construction Zones?

According to regulations, temporary speed limits due to construction are considered special circumstances where speed cameras are not activated. For example, if the normal speed limit is 100 km/h but reduced to 60 km/h due to construction, you won't receive a traffic violation as long as you don't exceed 100 km/h. Regarding visibility and distance requirements during adverse weather conditions like rain, fog, sandstorms, or hail: 1. When visibility is less than 200 meters: Turn on fog lights, low beams, position lights, and front/rear position lamps; maintain speed below 60 km/h and keep a distance of over 100 meters from other vehicles. 2. When visibility is less than 100 meters: Activate fog lights, low beams, position lights, front/rear position lamps, and hazard warning flashers; speed must not exceed 40 km/h with a minimum 50-meter distance from preceding vehicles in the same lane. 3. When visibility drops below 50 meters: Use all aforementioned lights plus hazard flashers; speed must stay under 20 km/h, and exit the highway at the nearest available ramp as soon as possible.

Why is a new battery still not fully charged after 13 hours?

New battery not being fully charged after 13 hours is due to a blown battery fuse or poor contact between the fuse tube and fuse socket. Below are specific details about charging a new battery: 1. Master the charging time: The first charge of a new battery affects its lifespan and charge capacity. Insufficient charging will result in lower charge capacity and reduced lifespan; while overcharging may improve electrical performance but also shortens the battery's lifespan. Therefore, it's crucial to properly time the first charge for a new battery. 2. Charging method: First, use the initial current (one-tenth of the battery's capacity) until the electrolyte bubbles and the single-cell voltage rises to 2.3-2.4V. Then, continue charging with half of the initial current until the electrolyte bubbles vigorously, and the voltage remains stable for 3 hours. Generally, after the charger indicator light turns off, continue charging for 1-2 hours. The total charging time should be about 8-10 hours. Avoid overcharging as it can negatively impact the battery's lifespan.
