As early as July last year, Tesla's China official website had already changed the rules for the initial order (deposit), making the deposit non-refundable and non-transferable. Below is relevant information about Tesla: Introduction: It is an American electric vehicle and energy company that produces and sells electric vehicles, solar panels, and energy storage equipment. Headquartered in Palo Alto, it was co-founded by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning on July 1, 2003. The founders named the company "Tesla Motors" in honor of the physicist Nikola Tesla. Development: Tesla's initial new energy vehicle startup team mainly came from Silicon Valley, using IT concepts to build cars, rather than the traditional automaker approach represented by Detroit. Therefore, Tesla's manufacturing of electric vehicles is often seen as a story of a Silicon Valley upstart challenging the Detroit giants.

I just bought a Tesla Model 3 and changed my mind after paying the deposit. Tesla offers a full refund of the deposit within 7 days of order submission, as long as production hasn't started; the money is usually returned to your account within about 5 days after cancellation. However, if you wait too long or modify the configuration, some fees may be deducted. The entire process can be handled in the APP: log in to your account, click cancel, confirm via email, and wait for the refund to arrive. I recommend thinking carefully before paying to avoid hassle. EV delivery periods often change - I canceled due to a job transfer and got my refund smoothly without issues. What's relevant is that eco-car subsidy policies can influence decisions, and the refund policy gave me peace of mind against impulsive spending regrets.

Can a 12-point demerit record on a driver's license be cleared?

If a motor vehicle driver's license accumulates 12 demerit points, the license cannot be canceled. Details: For large buses, tow trucks, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, reaching 12 demerit points will result in license downgrade. Regulations for other licenses are as follows: When a motor vehicle driver accumulates 12 demerit points within one scoring cycle, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall confiscate the driver's license. Additional information: The driver's license will be temporarily held by the traffic police or vehicle management office where the violation occurred. The responsible party must register at the original issuing vehicle management office or the office where the violation occurred within 15 days and complete a seven-day study program on road traffic safety regulations. After completing the study, the responsible party must take a theoretical exam on road traffic safety regulations arranged by the vehicle management office within 20 days. If the exam is passed, the demerit points will be cleared. If failed, the study and exam must be continued. Failure to participate in the required study and exam may result in suspension of the driver's license by the vehicle management office.

Why is the airbag light on in a sedan?

The airbag indicator light shows the working status of the airbag system. It usually performs a self-check when the car is started, and the light should turn off after a few seconds. If the light stays on, it indicates a fault in the airbag system, which should be addressed promptly. The following situations may cause the light to illuminate: 1. Instrument panel self-check: When entering the car and starting the engine, the instrument panel will perform an automatic check. The airbag light will automatically turn off after the self-check is completed, usually within about 5 seconds. This is a normal phenomenon. If the airbag light remains on after the self-check, it can be determined that there is indeed a fault. 2. False fault: If the car battery is low on power, it may also cause the airbag light to turn on. Additionally, the airbag system may report a low-pressure signal from a specific airbag, generating a fault code. In this case, simply clearing the fault code will resolve the issue. 3. Genuine fault: If the above two causes are ruled out, it may be due to a wiring issue, which should be repaired immediately. Possible causes of this fault may include problems with the airbag itself, collision sensors, airbag clock spring, or other wiring-related faults.

New Regulations for Driver's License Holders Aged 60 to 70?

Detailed information: Information 1: For C-class licenses held by individuals aged 60 to 70, no annual review is required, and no health examination form needs to be submitted. Information 2: AB-class licenses without demerit points can be exempted from review, meaning no health examination form is required.

When renewing a driver's license for individuals aged 60 to 70 upon its expiration, a health examination form must be submitted. Individuals aged 70 and above must submit a health certificate within one year after the end of each scoring cycle. Information 3: If a driver aged 70 or above fails to submit a health certificate within one year after the end of a scoring cycle, or if their driver's license is revoked under the circumstances specified in Item 8 of the first paragraph, they can restore their driving qualification by submitting a health certificate, provided their driver's license is still valid or has been expired for less than one year.

What are the time-based driving training rules?

Time-based driving training new regulations are "time-based driving training, charging by the hour, training first and payment later". Detailed explanation: Taking the C1 license as an example, the total required hours are 62, including 12 hours for road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; 16 hours for basic and field driving; 24 hours for road driving; and 10 hours for safe and civilized driving common sense. Other types of driver's licenses also have specific hour requirements. Additional information: Time-based charging for driving tests has been implemented since October 2017: According to the "Opinions on Promoting the Reform of the Motor Vehicle Driver Training and Examination System", time-based training and charging will be implemented in stages, changing the model where driving training institutions collect all training fees in advance, and promoting service measures such as time-based training and charging, and training first and payment later. Students can independently schedule training times, choose their own coaches, and select their preferred payment methods. "Time-based charging" model: The "time-based charging" model is more popular among office workers because the "one person, one car, one coach" learning format not only allows flexible scheduling of driving practice times but also improves learning efficiency. Students can choose their preferred coach; arrange their own practice times, enjoying freedom in learning; one person per car, no need to wait in line; charging by the hour can both alleviate financial pressure and prevent coaches from overcharging. "Traditional charging" model: Each student's learning progress varies. If the learning time is relatively long, the cost of the time-based charging model may not be as economical.
