Brake maintenance is necessary. Only by timely servicing the components of the brake system and cleaning and lubricating the safety parts can the accuracy and safety of the brakes be ensured. Below are the phenomena that may occur if the brake system is not maintained for a long time: 1. Abnormal noise: The dust from normal wear of the brake pads accumulates near the brake calipers, and if not cleaned for a long time, it can cause abnormal noise; the sound-damping and vibration-damping plates of the brake pads, if not cleaned and lubricated for a long time, can also cause brake noise. 2. Abnormal wear: When driving on gravel roads, some particles may splash between the brake pads and brake discs, causing noise or abnormal wear. 3. Brake deviation: If the dust cover of the sliding shaft of the caliper is damaged, driving through water or mud puddles can cause the caliper shaft to rust and seize, the caliper to not return to position, reduced braking force, and brake deviation.

Can the driver's license and vehicle license be kept together?

Driver's license and vehicle license can be kept together. In China, the definition of a driver's license is: A motor vehicle driver's license refers to a legal document issued to individuals who are legally permitted to learn to drive motor vehicles. After studying and mastering traffic regulations and driving skills, and passing the administrative department's assessment, they are granted the legal certificate to drive certain types of motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Ordinary people cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who already possess safe driving skills, the certificate that allows them to drive vehicles on the road is the 'driver's license.' This indicates that a driver's license is a kind of 'permit.' The permission to drive a vehicle is realized by issuing a driver's license. This shows that obtaining a driver's license is a formal procedure and must be issued by a specialized authority. Internationally, a driver's license is defined as 'a certificate issued by the competent authority that permits the holder to drive a vehicle for the purpose of driving a car.'

What is the purpose of road calibration function?

Road calibration function mainly serves to inform and alert people. Below is a relevant introduction about the road calibration function: Location setting: Road traffic signs are usually set on the right side of the road, where drivers can easily see them. For lanes such as overtaking lanes, driving lanes, and emergency parking belts, road traffic signs are typically set above the road through gantries. Near the end of highways, some prohibition or warning signs are also placed within the central divider. The setting of road traffic signs for interchanges, service areas, etc., follows the principle that approaching traffic will not obstruct the driver's line of sight at intersections or points of divergence and convergence. Precautions: The placement of road traffic signs must ensure that drivers have sufficient reaction time to make necessary judgments for safe operation. Roadside traffic signs must maintain a clear distance of 250mm from the outer edge of the shoulder, and the lower edge of the signboard must have a clearance of 2000mm from the outer edge of the emergency parking belt. When setting signs above the road, ensure that the lower edge of the signboard maintains a clearance of more than 5000mm from the road surface. Road traffic signboards are generally set at a right angle to the road, with a slight inward tilt, and the front of the board faces the direction of travel for easy observation by drivers.
