Without a car, you cannot apply for a vehicle license, hence no car means no vehicle license. The following materials are required to apply for a vehicle license: Owner's identity proof. Vehicle price proof. Vehicle qualification certificate. Vehicle tax payment proof. Registration and filing materials with the Safety Committee. Below is a brief introduction to the vehicle license: (1) The motor vehicle license (vehicle-license) is the legal document permitting a motor vehicle to drive on the road. (2) The motor vehicle license consists of three parts: the license holder, the main page, and the supplementary page. Among them: the front of the main page is the signed certificate core, the back is the vehicle photo, and it is laminated with a plastic sleeve; the supplementary page is the signed certificate core.

As a seasoned driver who has taken the driving test three times, I know very well that the vehicle license is a document that follows the car. When you buy a car and register it at the DMV, the vehicle license is issued along with the license plate. If you sell the car, even if you keep a copy of the old vehicle license, it will be invalidated when the new owner transfers the ownership. A friend once asked why they didn't receive the vehicle license when renting a shared car—it's because the management of commercial vehicles keeps all the documents centrally. In essence, the vehicle license is like the car's ID card. People without a car naturally don't need it, but if you buy a used car, remember to check the VIN on the document immediately to ensure it matches.

During the process of handling transfer procedures, I noticed many people confuse the Vehicle License and the Driver's License. The Vehicle License serves as proof that a vehicle is legally allowed on the road, which is entirely different in nature from the Driver's License. Naturally, one cannot apply for a Vehicle License without owning a car, just as an unmarried person cannot have a marriage certificate. There was a real case where someone purchased a mortgaged car with forged documents and ended up having the vehicle impounded during the annual inspection. I recommend first-time car buyers to check the vehicle registration process on the official website of the vehicle management office to avoid being scammed. Additionally, new energy vehicles now require separate registration for electronic Vehicle License filing.

Last year, I specifically studied traffic regulations when helping my cousin choose a car. The vehicle license must be carried with the vehicle at all times, as traffic police may inspect it anytime. When purchasing a new car, the 4S dealership handles the paperwork, and you'll receive the blue vehicle license booklet and the registration certificate. People without cars indeed don't need a vehicle license, but they can obtain a driver's license as proof of driving qualification. It's important to note that even with a driver's license, driving someone else's car requires carrying the original vehicle license of that car or an electronic document registered on the 12123 platform; otherwise, it's considered a violation.

Will points be deducted for not wearing a helmet on the back seat of a motorcycle?

Not wearing a helmet on the back seat of a motorcycle will not result in point deductions, but it may incur varying amounts of fines. Below is relevant information about motorcycle riding: Safety helmets: When riding a motorcycle, it is mandatory to wear a helmet. If caught by traffic police without one, you will be fined, and safety cannot be guaranteed. Since most motorcycle riders are young people who tend to ride at high speeds, wearing a helmet can reduce the severity of injuries in accidents. Slow-speed riding: When riding a motorcycle, it is crucial not to exceed the speed limit. Many motorcycle accidents occur due to speeding, so for safety reasons, always ride slowly and avoid speeding.

Is It Meaningful to Upgrade from 16-inch to 17-inch Wheels?

Upgrading from 16-inch to 17-inch wheels doesn't hold much significance, as the difference in wheel size is minimal and has little impact on the car's performance. Below is relevant information about car wheels: Concept: The wheel hub is the rotating part of the wheel steel inside the tire connected by columns, which is the metal component mounted on the axle that supports the center of the tire. It is also called the rim, steel ring, or wheel disc. Wheel hubs come in various types based on diameter, width, forming method, and material. Size: Wheel size essentially refers to the diameter of the wheel. Common terms like 15-inch or 16-inch wheels refer to the wheel's size (diameter). Generally, in passenger cars, larger wheel sizes with higher tire aspect ratios can create a visually appealing tension effect and improve the vehicle's handling stability. However, this comes with the additional issue of increased fuel consumption.

What does car range mean?

Car range refers to the maximum distance that can be traveled with the remaining fuel in the tank at an economical speed, mainly calculated automatically by the car's computer based on the current fuel consumption. Below is a related introduction to car mileage: Introduction: The car odometer indicates the speed of the car, with the unit being km/h (kilometers per hour). It consists of two meters: one is the speedometer, and the other is the odometer. It is generally located directly in front of the driver's position. Identification methods can include determining by the degree of wear and tear or checking the vehicle's maintenance records at a 4S shop. Principle: Traditional speedometers are mechanical. A typical mechanical odometer is connected to a flexible shaft, which contains a steel cable. The other end of the flexible shaft is connected to a gear in the transmission. The rotation of the gear drives the steel cable to rotate, which in turn drives a magnet inside the odometer's cover ring to rotate. The cover ring is connected to the pointer and keeps the pointer at zero position via a hairspring. The speed of the magnet's rotation causes changes in the size of the magnetic field lines, disrupting the balance and thus moving the pointer.

What Causes Small Cracks on the Edge of Tires?

The reason for small cracks on the edge of tires is natural aging of the tire. If there are numerous small cracks and their depth is close to damaging the tire body, the tire should be replaced promptly. Tires are rubber products and will naturally age due to environmental factors and usage. Their normal service life is approximately 4-5 years. As the tire body continuously undergoes bending and deformation, small cracks will naturally form. Over time, the safety factor will decrease, and failure to replace the tire in time may lead to accidents such as blowouts. Generally, it is recommended to rotate the tires every 10,000 kilometers to evenly distribute tire fatigue, prevent uneven wear, and extend tire life. Avoid rapid acceleration, emergency braking, or sharp turns; avoid hitting curbs; avoid parking on curbs; avoid driving quickly on unpaved roads. It is advisable to check the four-wheel alignment every 20,000 kilometers to reduce abnormal tire wear caused by changes in four-wheel alignment parameters. After overloading the vehicle or driving on rough roads, have it inspected at an authorized service center to avoid abnormal tire wear due to changes in four-wheel alignment parameters. Regularly check tire pressure, as both overinflation and underinflation can lead to abnormal tire wear, shorten the tire's normal lifespan, increase fuel consumption, and raise the risk of blowouts at high speeds.

Do Driving School Coaches Have a Holiday on Mid-Autumn Festival?

Whether driving school coaches have a holiday on Mid-Autumn Festival depends on whether the coach is willing to work during the festival. Some coaches may sacrifice holidays like Mid-Autumn Festival to earn money. Below is relevant information about the automobile driver's license examination: Content: After completing the Subject 1 test, candidates must pass the Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests within three years. If they fail to do so, the test results become invalid, and they must re-register for the Subject 1 test. Under the new regulations, candidates have five attempts each for Subject 2 and Subject 3. If they fail to pass within these five attempts, they must retake the Subject 1 test. Sequence: The order of the test subjects is as follows: traffic regulations and related knowledge (referred to as Subject 1 [theory]), field driving (referred to as Subject 2 [nine items]), and road driving (referred to as Subject 3 [road test and safe civilized driving]).
