New tires without red dots are a big deal, as the red dots are very important. Meaning of the red dots on tires: The red dots on tires represent the point of maximum longitudinal rigidity of the tire. Simply put, the spot marked with a red dot is the point on the tire where vibration is the greatest. When the vehicle rotates once on the ground, each position on the tire will experience different degrees of compressive force, which can indirectly affect driving comfort. Maintenance methods for new tires: Perform wheel alignment and tire rotation regularly. For vehicles driven under normal road conditions, it is recommended to perform wheel alignment and tire rotation every 10,000 kilometers. Errors in wheel alignment angles and prolonged lack of tire rotation may lead to steering deviation and abnormal tread wear. Regularly check tire pressure: Tire maintenance also includes regular pressure checks. Tires with pressure above the specified level will significantly reduce tire usage, while tires with pressure below the specified level can cause poor braking performance, difficulty in steering, or heavy steering, and also reduce the tire's service life.

How Long Does It Generally Take for a Vehicle to Be Scrapped?

Non-commercial vehicles and commercial vehicles have different scrapping periods, as detailed below: Scrapping regulations for non-commercial vehicles: For household 5-seat cars and 7-seat SUVs, as well as small and micro non-commercial vehicles, there is no usage period limit. When the normal mileage reaches 600,000 kilometers, the state will guide the scrapping process. In addition to the above vehicles, small and micro non-commercial passenger cars, large non-commercial cars, and wheeled special-purpose machinery vehicles also have no usage period limit. Common scrapping regulations for commercial vehicles: Small and micro taxi passenger cars have a scrapping period of 8 years, medium-sized taxi passenger cars have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large taxi passenger cars have a scrapping period of 12 years. Public transport passenger cars have a scrapping period of 13 years, other small and micro commercial passenger cars have a scrapping period of 10 years, and large and medium-sized commercial passenger cars have a scrapping period of 15 years. Micro commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 8 years, light and large commercial trucks have a scrapping period of 10 years. The vehicle scrapping process is as follows: The vehicle owner applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out the "Application Form for Vehicle Modification, Transfer, Alteration, Suspension, or Scrapping" and affix the owner's seal. The registration office will accept the application and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" for vehicles that have reached the scrapping period. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping period, the vehicle inspection office will determine if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" if applicable. The vehicle owner can choose a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The vehicle owner must submit the "Modification Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the vehicle inspection office for verification and signature. The license plates and certificates will be reclaimed, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations. Special Notes: According to Article 30 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", if the vehicle is damaged and cannot be driven back to the place of registration, the vehicle owner may submit the scrapped vehicle to a local motor vehicle recycling company. Commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial use must be scrapped according to the original commercial vehicle scrapping period. According to Article 43 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations", after completing the transfer or cancellation of a motor vehicle registration, the original vehicle owner can apply to the vehicle management office to use the original license plate number when registering a newly purchased vehicle. The application must meet the following conditions: (1) The application must be submitted within six months after the transfer or cancellation; (2) The vehicle owner must have owned the original vehicle for more than three years.

What is the difference between submitting a physical condition certificate and a driver's physical examination?

Submitting a physical condition certificate and a driver's physical examination differ in whether the individual has obtained a driver's license or not. Below are relevant details about the driving school physical examination: 1. Vision issues: During the driver's license examination, if vision does not meet the standard, corrective measures such as wearing glasses with the appropriate prescription can be taken for a re-examination, as the test does not require unaided vision. 2. Requirements: The driver's license physical examination certificate is generally conducted at a county-level or above hospital designated by the traffic police vehicle management authority. The driver must personally visit the designated hospital for the physical examination to obtain a written physical condition certificate.
