ETC is not mandatory to install. According to Article 19 of the "Notice on Vigorously Promoting the Development and Application of ETC on Highways" issued by the State Council, vehicles without ETC installed by 2020 will not enjoy toll discounts. In the future, only one manual lane will be retained at highway toll stations, and vehicles without ETC will have to pay tolls through the manual lane. Additionally, newly installed ETC devices cannot be used on highways immediately; they need to be activated first. During free holiday periods, vehicles with ETC can still use highways, and ETC users passing through ETC lanes will not be charged. ETC Billing Principle: Highways will have one or more ETC lanes. Through dedicated short-range microwave communication between the vehicle's electronic tag installed on the windshield and the microwave antenna in the ETC lane, and using computer networking technology for backend settlement with banks, vehicles can pay tolls without stopping at toll stations. This is based on the principle of "pass first, deduct later." Benefits of Installing ETC: Time-saving: Eliminates the hassle of waiting in line; Green and eco-friendly: Reduces noise and exhaust emissions by allowing vehicles to pass through toll stations without stopping; Reduces wear and tear: Saves costs by minimizing frequent starts and brakes, thereby reducing vehicle wear and fuel consumption; Improves efficiency: ETC lanes can theoretically increase traffic efficiency by 2-3 times, making traditional ETC faster, more advanced, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous. More policy support: The State Council has clearly stated in the "13th Five-Year Plan for the Development of a Modern Integrated Transportation System" that "by 2020, intercity transportation cards should be interoperable in key city clusters, and the proportion of vehicles using ETC should significantly increase." It also set a target in the "13th Five-Year Plan" for comprehensive transportation development: "By 2020, the ETC usage rate for road passenger vehicles should reach 50%." More future possibilities: In addition to continuously improving the convenience of ETC installation and usage rates for passenger vehicles, future efforts will focus on promoting ETC for trucks and exploring deeper integration of ETC systems with smart transportation developments such as vehicle-to-vehicle communication and vehicle-road coordination. This will provide comprehensive travel services for vehicle owners, meaning more application scenarios will support ETC usage.

What does the red circle with an exclamation mark mean?

Red exclamation mark (specifically a circle with an exclamation mark inside), this represents a warning for the braking system, mainly indicating a braking system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Solution: Immediate inspection and repair of the braking system is required to avoid accidents. Apart from the red exclamation mark indicating a braking system fault, all other exclamation marks on a car are yellow, representing general faults, automatic transmission faults, abnormal tire pressure, and lighting faults. Below is a detailed analysis of these four situations: General Fault: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside. If this symbol lights up, it indicates a fault in the car's general performance or components and functions. Main issues include parking sensor faults, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light faults, engine oil pressure sensor faults, etc. It is necessary to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the fault. Automatic Transmission Fault: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside. This is the automatic transmission fault warning light, indicating a fault in the transmission or transmission lubricant below the normal range. Transmission oil should be replaced promptly. Abnormal Tire Pressure: A horizontal line under a bracket with an exclamation mark in the middle. This represents the tire pressure monitoring warning light, which lights up when the car's tire pressure is too low. Check the car's tire pressure and restore it to the normal range. Lighting Fault: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark. This is the lighting fault indicator light, indicating a fault in the car's lights. Solution: Visit a 4S shop for inspection and repair as soon as possible, or conduct a self-check, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the problem.

Does speeding at the starting point of a section speed measurement count as speeding if the average speed within the section is not exceeded?

Speeding at the starting point of a section speed measurement does not count as speeding if the average speed within the section is not exceeded. The following is a detailed introduction to the section speed measurement system: 1. Function: The section speed measurement system establishes a monitoring and capture system by setting up cameras at road checkpoints to conduct real-time monitoring and capture of vehicles passing through the monitored area. It collects information such as vehicle speed, traffic flow, license plate number, color, approximate physical size, and driver characteristics. This information is then transmitted via a network to the public security traffic command center and traffic control sub-center databases for data storage, query, comparison, and other processing. 2. Working Principle: Section speed measurement involves setting up two adjacent monitoring points on the same road section. The principle is to calculate the average speed of a vehicle over that road section based on the time it takes to pass between the two monitoring points. The system then determines whether the vehicle has exceeded the speed limit for that section, thereby identifying speeding violations.

What is the original engine oil model for the Roewe i5?

5w30 is the original engine oil model for the Roewe i5. Japanese and Korean car models, as well as domestic vehicles, generally use 5W-30 viscosity oil, while European and German vehicles mostly use 5W-40 viscosity oil, and American vehicles primarily use 5W-30 viscosity oil. The viscosity of engine oil changes with temperature, so special attention should be paid to its performance under both low and high temperatures. For example, in 5W-30, the first number indicates low-temperature fluidity. 5W means it can withstand temperatures as low as -30°C. The smaller this number, the better the low-temperature fluidity, resulting in smoother cold starts for the car. The latter number represents the kinematic viscosity of the oil at 100°C. A higher value means the oil can maintain its viscosity index better at high temperatures, which can also be understood as better lubrication performance under high-temperature conditions. The method for changing the engine oil in the Roewe i5 is as follows: Wait for the engine temperature to cool down, allowing the oil to flow back into the oil pan; Use a wrench to loosen the oil drain plug and place an oil pan to catch the old oil until no more oil flows out. Start the engine and let it run for 30 seconds to allow the oil in the main oil passage to drain out; Use a special wrench to remove the oil filter; Apply oil to the seal of the new oil filter and tighten it clockwise by hand; Add the new engine oil through the oil filler cap on the engine valve cover, usually filling about three-quarters of the oil container; Start the engine and let it run for 5 minutes, checking for any leaks around the oil drain plug and oil filter. If leaks are found, repairs should be made; After stopping the engine, pull out the oil dipstick and check that the engine oil level is within the standard range.

Do Small Cars Need to Have Their Radiators Topped Up Regularly?

If it's a new car and there are no signs of water seepage, dripping, or leakage, there's no need to add water for 2 years. After 2 years, visit a 4S shop to replace the antifreeze. However, it's essential to develop the habit of regularly checking the coolant level in the radiator. Here is some relevant information: 1. Precautions for adding water to a car: Do not use ordinary water as a substitute for antifreeze. Avoid mixing antifreeze of different colors and specifications. When using antifreeze from different brands, try to drain the original antifreeze from the cooling system thoroughly. The choice of coolant is mainly based on the local minimum temperature, and it is generally all-season when leaving the factory. 2. The difference between purified water and antifreeze: The water added to a car's radiator is not tap water or purified water but car antifreeze. Of course, in an emergency situation where car antifreeze is not available, a small amount of purified water can be added, but only a little, as the consequences of adding too much can be very serious.

Can a B2 License Drive a B1 Vehicle?

B2 license cannot drive B1 vehicles. B1 is a type of bus license, while B2 is a truck license. The vehicle types permitted under a B2 driver's license include C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled cars), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). Differences between B1 and B2: Vehicle types: B1 permits driving medium-sized passenger vehicles such as C1, C2, C3, C4, and M, including urban buses with a capacity of 10 to 19 passengers. B2 license allows driving heavy and medium-sized trucks or large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles, primarily heavy and medium-sized trucks. For example, the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads fall under heavy trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-sized specialized operation vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with special devices or tools, such as water sprinklers, concrete mixers, and fire trucks. Driver requirements: B1 requires drivers to be between 21 and 50 years old. A B1 license cannot be directly applied for; it requires 3 years of driving experience and no record of accumulating 12 penalty points in three consecutive scoring cycles. B2 requires drivers to be at least 155 cm tall and between 20 and 50 years old. A B2 license can be directly applied for. Application conditions: B1 cannot be directly applied for; it can only be upgraded from C-class or B2 licenses. B2 can be directly applied for by anyone aged 20 or above. B2 can also be upgraded from B1 and C-class licenses. Upgrading conditions: Upgrading from C-class to B2 requires only one year of driving experience. Upgrading from C-class to B1 requires three years of driving experience and no record of accumulating 12 penalty points during those three years. Test vehicles and content: B1 tests use medium-sized buses, while B2 tests use large trucks. B1 and B2 licenses do not include each other, and both can be obtained by individuals aged 20 to 60. However, they can be upgraded to each other.

What are the reactions of a car when the battery is dead?

When the car battery is dead, the car will exhibit the following reactions: 1. Abnormal vehicle starting: Normally, the vehicle starts successfully with one attempt, but when the battery has issues or is low on power, it may require multiple attempts to start the vehicle, or it may not start at all. Additionally, there may be a "squeaking" noise. 2. Headlights dimming at idle: While driving, the headlights function normally, but when the vehicle is idling, the headlights become less bright. This happens because the engine's charging power decreases at idle, and if the battery is faulty, it cannot supply the required power for the headlights, making them dimmer when parked compared to when driving. 3. Battery warning light on: The battery warning light indicates that the battery needs replacement. When this light comes on, it is advisable to visit a repair shop for battery inspection and maintenance.
