Motor vehicles are strictly prohibited from reversing on highways, and since service areas are part of the highway, reversing is also not allowed. If there are monitoring devices at the entrance to capture illegal activities, you will be penalized with a deduction of 3 points. Traffic violations resulting in a 3-point deduction include: 1. Commercial vehicles: Driving passenger vehicles (excluding buses) or school buses with more passengers than the approved capacity but less than 20% over. 2. Vehicle types: Driving medium-sized or larger passenger or cargo vehicles, or hazardous material transport vehicles on roads other than highways or urban expressways, or driving other motor vehicles at speeds exceeding the limit by less than 20%. 3. Trucks: Driving a truck with cargo exceeding the approved load capacity by less than 30%.

What is the Difference Between Parking Lights and Brake Lights?

The relevant introduction to the difference between parking lights and brake lights is as follows: 1. Brake lights are brighter than parking lights, and parking lights consume relatively less power. Additionally, parking lights can only be turned on when the vehicle is turned off. Furthermore, parking lights and brake lights do not use the same bulb. Brake lights have a larger area and stronger light penetration, similar to fog lights. 2. Parking lights consume very little power (not the light before turning on the headlights) and are illuminated during nighttime parking to prevent other moving objects from colliding with the vehicle, requiring manual activation. Brake lights, on the other hand, have high power and are red, only illuminating when the vehicle is braking. They are controlled either by the brake pedal linkage or automatically by braking force. 3. Parking lights serve as warning lights that provide safety reminders to the surrounding environment, such as vehicles and pedestrians, during temporary parking when the engine is off, indicating the vehicle's position. Brake lights are generally installed at the rear of the vehicle and are red in color, making it easier for following vehicles to notice when the vehicle ahead is braking, thereby helping to prevent rear-end collisions.

What Causes the Engine RPM to Not Exceed 3000?

Engine RPM not exceeding 3000 is due to reasons such as a faulty fuel pump, malfunctioning fuel pressure regulator valve, or defective crankshaft position sensor. The specific explanations are as follows: Faulty Fuel Pump: Due to the aging of the fuel pump, the output fuel pressure is insufficient, leading to inadequate fuel supply at high engine speeds, thus preventing the RPM from increasing. The only solution is to replace the fuel pump. Faulty Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve: This regulator valve limits the pressure in the fuel line, automatically opening when the pressure reaches 2.5 to prevent excessive pressure. If damaged, it excessively restricts fuel pressure, preventing the RPM from increasing. The only solution is to replace the faulty valve. Defective Crankshaft Position Sensor: This sensor transmits the crankshaft's RPM to the engine control unit. If faulty, it sends incorrect RPM signals, causing the control unit to erroneously limit the engine speed. Replacing the crankshaft position sensor can resolve this issue.

Can a C1 License Drive a Small Trailer?

Small trailers cannot be driven with a C1 license, as small trailers fall under the category of tow vehicles. The scope of a C1 driver's license includes small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, as well as light, small, and micro special-purpose vehicles. Small passenger vehicles must have a seating capacity of 9 or fewer. Vehicle types that cannot be driven with a C1 license include: Large buses, tow vehicles, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. Additionally, a C1 license does not permit driving vehicles with more than 9 seats or trucks with a total length exceeding 6 meters. Age requirements for obtaining a C1 license: The minimum age to apply for a C1 license is 18 years old, with no upper age limit. However, applicants aged 70 and above must pass tests assessing memory, judgment, and reaction abilities.

Does flooding half a tire affect the break-in period of a new car?

Flooding half a tire of a car has some impact, but as long as the engine is not started, there won't be significant issues. Three scenarios of car flooding: Car flooding can be divided into three scenarios. First, water submerges the exhaust pipe but is below half the wheel height. Second, water reaches exactly half the wheel height. Third, water exceeds half the wheel height. Generally, water reaching half the wheel height will affect the car. Solutions: If water reaches half the wheel height and the seals are intact, water usually won't enter. However, if submerged for a long time with poor sealing, the car may likely leak. If the engine's intake system remains dry, drive the car to a repair shop to dismantle, clean, and dry the soaked interior.

Can a car still undergo annual inspection if it's overdue by one week?

As long as it does not exceed three inspection cycles, the vehicle can still be inspected. Timely inspection: Vehicles that fail to undergo annual inspection on time will not have the inspection sticker. Driving a vehicle without this sticker is illegal. It is essential to have the vehicle inspected at the DMV within the stipulated time to avoid any impact on driving. Reasons for vehicle inspection: The purpose of annual inspection is to eliminate potential safety hazards in vehicles, reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents, and encourage owners to maintain their vehicles properly. If a vehicle fails the inspection, the relevant personnel will inform the owner of the specific non-compliant items. The owner must then repair these issues within a given timeframe before the vehicle can be re-inspected.

What does engine overspeed condition mean?

Pressed a speed limit button behind the gear lever. Working principle of the engine: Converts the thermal energy of gasoline (diesel) into mechanical energy by burning and expanding gas in a sealed cylinder to push the piston to perform work. Function of the engine: It is the device that provides power for the car, determining the car's power performance, fuel economy, stability, and environmental friendliness. The main performance indicators of the engine include power performance indicators, fuel economy indicators, environmental indicators, reliability indicators, and durability indicators. Power performance indicators, which characterize the engine's working capacity, are generally evaluated by the engine's effective torque, effective power, and engine speed. These are the most commonly focused indicators by the public. The fuel economy indicator of the engine is generally expressed by the effective fuel consumption rate. Environmental indicators mainly refer to the exhaust quality and noise level of the engine. Currently, emission indicators and noise levels have become important performance indicators of the engine.
