Making a right turn from the far-right straight lane constitutes a traffic violation of not driving in the designated lane. However, if it is a combined straight and right-turn lane, then making a right turn is not considered a violation. Relevant regulations: Driving a motor vehicle on a highway without following the designated lane will result in a 3-point deduction and a fine. Driving a motor vehicle on an urban expressway without following the designated lane will also result in a 3-point deduction and a fine. Driving a motor vehicle on roads other than highways or urban expressways without following the designated lane will result in a fine. Other traffic rules: When making a left turn, turn from the left side of the intersection center point. Turn on the turn signal when turning, and use low beams when driving at night; proceed in order when the signal permits; stop in order beyond the stop line when the signal stops. If there is no stop line, stop beyond the intersection; when making a right turn and encountering a vehicle in the same lane waiting for the signal, stop and wait in order; at intersections without directional signal lights, turning motor vehicles must yield to straight-moving vehicles and pedestrians. Right-turning vehicles from the opposite direction must yield to left-turning vehicles.

Having driven for many years, I always emphasize safety first. Turning right from the rightmost straight lane is absolutely a traffic violation because the lane markings clearly indicate it's for straight-through traffic only. Forcing a turn can disrupt traffic flow and is likely to be caught by cameras, resulting in fines. I've witnessed a real-life case: at a traffic light intersection in the city, a driver suddenly turned right from a straight lane and collided with an electric scooter coming straight behind, causing a minor injury accident. Traffic rules are crystal clear—this kind of violation not only incurs demerit points and fines but also endangers pedestrian safety. It's advisable to plan your route before driving and change to the right-turn lane several hundred meters in advance; don't make last-minute directional changes, as that only creates chaos. Developing law-abiding habits will make you more confident and safer on the road.

Where is the nine-digit engine number?

The engine number is generally located on the outer surface of the engine cylinder block, or on the vehicle's nameplate or the nameplate inside the engine compartment. The simplest and most direct method is to check the vehicle's administrative green book or the vehicle's registration certificate. The engine number, like a person's ID number, represents each vehicle and contains very important information about the vehicle. Engine model is an identification code assigned by the engine manufacturer in accordance with relevant regulations, corporate or industry practices, and the attributes of the engine. It is used to indicate the manufacturer, specifications, performance, features, technology, purpose, and production batch of the engine, such as fuel type, number of cylinders, displacement, and static braking power. Engines installed in cars or multi-purpose passenger vehicles are marked with the professional manufacturer's name, model, and production number as required. It is important to note that the engine number is not the same as the engine model. The engine model refers to the specifications and size of the engine within the manufacturer's range, and engine models can be the same. The engine number, however, refers to the production number of the engine, where each engine can only have one unique engine number, and no two engines share the same number. Composition of the vehicle engine number: Front section: Includes product series code, generation symbol, and regional or corporate code. Manufacturers can choose the appropriate letters as needed, but these must be approved and filed by the industry standard regulatory body. Middle section: Consists of symbols for the number of cylinders, cylinder arrangement, stroke, and cylinder diameter. Rear section: Composed of symbols for structural features and usage characteristics. Tail section: Distinguishing symbol. When differentiation is needed due to improvements or other reasons within the same product series, the manufacturer selects an appropriate symbol. The rear and tail sections can be separated by a hyphen (-).

What does a motorcycle balance shaft mean?

Motorcycle balance shaft is actually a shaft equipped with eccentric weights that rotates synchronously with the crankshaft. It uses the reverse vibration force generated by the eccentric weights to provide good balance effect for the engine and reduce engine vibration. The following are specific introductions about motorcycle engine balance shaft: 1. Function: The main function of engine balance shaft is to balance the crankshaft, which is a technical means to reduce engine vibration. 2. Working principle: Since the piston makes repeated high-speed linear movements in the cylinder, it will inevitably generate large inertial forces on the piston, piston pin and connecting rod. The counterweight configured on the connecting rod can effectively balance these inertial forces. However, only part of the moving mass on the connecting rod participates in linear motion, while another part participates in rotation. Except for the top and bottom dead center positions, various inertial forces cannot be completely balanced, causing engine vibration.

What is kWh in New Energy Vehicles?

"kWh" is actually the unit of measurement for the capacity of the battery pack in new energy vehicles. To put it simply, 1kWh is equivalent to 1 kilowatt-hour of electricity in our daily lives. Here are some related explanations: 1. Automotive field: Although it's not difficult to understand, "kWh" holds significant meaning in the automotive field. It has replaced the status of "L" (liters) in the automotive industry and has brought about a revolution in vehicles. 2. Future trend: Traditional compact cars consume approximately 5.5L of fuel to travel 100 kilometers, whereas pure electric vehicles only require 20kWh of electricity, with zero emissions and zero pollution. This is one of the reasons why new energy vehicles are considered the future trend.

Which fuse to remove for Corolla throttle body matching method?

Remove the fuse located next to the battery and air filter. Here are the relevant details: 1. Throttle Body: The throttle body is a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. After entering the intake pipe, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture for combustion. 2. Structure: As one of the most critical components in an EFI engine system, the throttle body's upper section connects to the air filter grid while its lower part attaches to the engine block - serving as the 'throat' of the automotive engine. A vehicle's acceleration responsiveness heavily depends on throttle cleanliness; regular cleaning can reduce fuel consumption and enhance engine performance.

Is it a traffic violation to drive in the opposite lane during road construction?

If it is indeed impossible to drive in the designated lane due to reasons such as road construction, you may temporarily use the opposite lane, which is not considered a traffic violation. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Appeal or administrative reconsideration: If you are penalized for a violation, you can appeal to have it revoked, either by filing an appeal or applying for administrative reconsideration with the higher-level traffic police department. 2. Administrative reconsideration or litigation: If you disagree with the traffic violation penalty, you may apply for administrative reconsideration with the higher-level authority or the same-level people's government within 60 days from receiving the penalty decision, or file an administrative lawsuit within three months.

Can a Van Still Be Driven When Overheated?

When a vehicle's high-temperature warning light comes on, it is necessary to stop immediately, add water to the radiator, and wait for the temperature to drop before driving again. The following are solutions for vehicle overheating: 1. Stop driving: If the transmission shows a high-temperature warning, stop driving immediately and let the vehicle idle for 10 minutes. 2. Enhance cooling: If the vehicle's cooling capacity is insufficient, appropriate modifications can be made, such as installing a larger radiator, adding cooling fans, or switching to higher-grade transmission oil. 3. Regular inspection: Regularly clean the transmission radiator, especially after driving on muddy roads, to ensure its cooling efficiency remains good.
