What does the 'Please Press the Brake Pedal' prompt mean?

This prompt is a function of ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control), specifically the active braking system. When this prompt appears, a small car icon will be displayed in the central screen area of the instrument panel. For color screens, the display will be in red, while monochrome screens will simply show a car icon. If the following distance becomes too close, the system will directly prompt 'Please Press the Brake Pedal'. Below is detailed information about the brake pedal: 1. Introduction: The brake pedal, as the name suggests, is the pedal that limits power - it's the pedal for the foot brake (service brake), used for deceleration and stopping. It's one of the five major control components in vehicle operation, with very high frequency of use. How the driver controls it directly affects driving safety. 2. Location: The brake pedal is what's commonly referred to as the 'brake'. There's a small pedal connected to the brake lever above the brake, hence it's also called the 'brake pedal'. There's also a small pedal above the clutch, called the clutch pedal. The clutch is on the left, while the brake is on the right (aligned with the accelerator, with the accelerator being on the right).

Can a car still undergo annual inspection after two years of not being inspected?

If a car's annual inspection is overdue by two years, it can still undergo a supplementary inspection: According to relevant traffic laws, vehicles that have not undergone annual inspection are not qualified to be driven on the road. If such a vehicle continues to be driven, it will be subject to a penalty of 3 demerit points and a fine. For any traffic accidents caused by a vehicle that has not undergone its annual inspection on time, the person responsible will bear full or primary liability, and the insurance company will not assume any responsibility. This is because the insurance policy specifies that vehicles with expired inspections are among the objects of claim rejection. Therefore, if a car with an expired inspection is involved in a traffic accident, all responsibilities will fall on the person responsible, and the insurance company has the right to refuse compensation. If you realize that your vehicle has exceeded the annual inspection deadline, the first thing you should do is stop driving it on the road and proceed with the annual inspection as soon as possible. Annual inspection is a legal requirement, meaning it is mandatory, and every vehicle on the road must undergo it. To make it more convenient for car owners, the government has introduced a six-year exemption policy for new vehicles that meet the six-year inspection requirements, allowing them to be exempt from annual inspection each year.

Why Are Roads Slipperiest Right After It Rains?

Because dust and dirt on the road absorb rainwater and form a lubricating layer. Below is an explanation of why roads are most slippery after rain: 1. Principle: Roads become slippery due to reduced friction between tires and the road surface. Right after rain starts, the road absorbs some water, so there isn't excessive water on the surface, maintaining relatively good friction. Therefore, it's not extremely slippery. When rain continues and water accumulates most on the road, the friction coefficient is at its minimum, making this the most slippery condition. After the rain stops and water evaporates, there's less water, so the road isn't as slippery. 2. Precautions: (1) Slow down. On rainy days, wet roads significantly reduce tire traction. Slowing down and increasing braking distance ensures higher safety. (2) Avoid sudden steering. When friction between tires and the road decreases, controlling the vehicle becomes more difficult. Sudden steering may cause skidding due to improper handling. If the front wheels skid, turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction of the skid. If the rear wheels skid, reduce throttle and steer toward the skidding side. (3) Turn on fog lights. Rainy days bring mist and reduced visibility. Use fog lights to alert pedestrians and other vehicles, preventing accidents caused by poor visibility. (4) Never coast downhill in neutral. On wet roads, sudden acceleration or braking while going uphill can cause wheel spin. When going downhill, avoid neutral gear; instead, maintain an appropriate gear based on speed. (5) Regularly check tire tread. Excessively worn tires can lead to veering, longer braking distances, fishtailing, and increased skidding risk. Inspect tire wear regularly, and replace tires promptly when treads become shallow to reduce the likelihood of reduced friction and skidding.

Can an F License Be Used to Ride a Scooter Motorcycle?

According to Appendix 1 of China's "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," which outlines the permitted vehicle types and corresponding codes, an F license allows the holder to operate fuel-powered scooter motorcycles with an engine displacement not exceeding 50ml or electric scooters with a maximum design speed not exceeding 50km/h. Otherwise, operation is not permitted. When driving a scooter motorcycle with an F license, it is necessary to check the motorcycle's displacement and speed. The F license is a light motorcycle driving license, with an application age range of 18-70 years. It only permits the operation of light motorcycles with an engine displacement below 50CC (50ml) and a maximum speed not exceeding 50km/h. Additionally, light motorcycles are not allowed to carry passengers. Motorcycles exceeding 50CC require an E or D license to operate. A light motorcycle is defined as any vehicle, regardless of its driving method, with a maximum design speed below 50km/h. If powered by an internal combustion engine, the displacement must not exceed 50ml. If electrically powered, the motor's rated output power must not exceed 4KW. Materials required for applying for an F license: four identical one-inch white-background color photos, a valid ID card or temporary ID card (non-local applicants must submit a residence permit valid for one year). When taking the F license test, after completing traffic law studies and driving skill training, motorcycle license applicants can take the written test (Subject 1), skills test (Subject 2), and road test (Subject 3) on the same day. To operate a light motorcycle, the driver must be at least 1.45 meters tall, have a visual acuity of at least 0.7 (corrected or uncorrected), no red-green color blindness, normal hearing, and no physical defects or diseases that hinder safe driving. After passing a medical examination and the traffic rules and driving skills tests administered by the public security authorities, a light motorcycle driving license will be issued. For licensed light motorcycles, a medical examination is required every two years, and those who fail are not allowed to continue driving. Depending on the motorcycle's displacement, different license types are required for scooter motorcycles, as follows: D (regular three-wheeled motorcycle): Permitted vehicles include three-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement exceeding 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. Other permitted vehicle types: E, F. E (regular two-wheeled motorcycle): Permitted vehicles include two-wheeled motorcycles with an engine displacement exceeding 50ml or a maximum design speed exceeding 50km/h. According to Article 19 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law": Driving a motor vehicle requires a legally obtained motor vehicle driving license. Applicants must meet the driving license conditions set by the public security department under the State Council. After passing the tests, the traffic management department of the public security authorities will issue the corresponding category of motor vehicle driving license. Drivers must operate motor vehicles within the scope of their license and carry the license while driving. Therefore, it is clear that both driving without a license and driving a vehicle not covered by the license are illegal. According to the first provision of the reply from the Legislative Affairs Office of the State Council regarding the interpretation and application of the "Road Traffic Safety Law" and its implementing regulations: Driving a vehicle not covered by the license is considered unlicensed driving in nature. In terms of penalties, based on the principle of proportionality, it can be treated as driving without a license but with a lighter penalty. Therefore, both unlicensed driving and driving a vehicle not covered by the license are subject to Article 99, Paragraph 1 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law": Driving without a motor vehicle driving license, driving with a revoked license, or driving during a license suspension period will result in fines imposed by the public traffic management department and may also include detention for up to 15 days.
