There are no strict regulations on whether small cars must be equipped with dedicated fire extinguishers, but during vehicle inspections, external inspection personnel say that a fire extinguisher is required. Precautions for using car fire extinguishers: When purchasing a fire extinguisher: Buy from reputable fire equipment stores, check their business license and product certification before purchasing, and carefully check the expiration date of the fire extinguisher. When choosing a car fire extinguisher, besides paying attention to the appearance, car owners should also ask the seller for product certification, quality assurance, and user manual, and request an invoice to ensure accountability in case of problems. Precautions for placing fire extinguishers: Fire extinguishers should be placed in a dry, ventilated, and easily accessible area, away from open flames, high temperatures, and greasy areas. Regularly check if the safety pin is intact, if the cylinder is deformed or corroded, and if the nozzle is clogged with grease.

What does the license plate removal notice mean?

License plate removal notice means that the traffic police department has notified that the license plate has been removed, which is equivalent to being revoked. The following is relevant information about license plate removal: Definition: It means that the vehicle bound to the user's owner service has incurred parking payment fees. The next time the user uses it without feeling the need to pay, they must re-enter the license plate number. The best method is to call the 114 dedicated hotline, where you need to provide the other party with the vehicle's color, license plate number, and model information. If the information matches, the operator will provide the other party's contact details. Process: Subsequently, 114 will notify the car owner to move the vehicle via phone or message. Alternatively, you can also call 122, which is China's traffic accident emergency rescue hotline operated by the public security and traffic management authorities. If you have this number, it will be more convenient to make contact. If the other party refuses to move the vehicle, you can call 122 to notify the towing company to handle the situation.
