Car front and rear brake pads do not need to be replaced together, as they have different replacement cycles. Compared to front brake pads, rear brake pads have a longer service life. Under normal driving conditions, front brake pads typically require replacement every 30,000-50,000 kilometers, while rear brake pads can last about 60,000-100,000 kilometers before needing replacement. Introduction to Brake Pads: 1. Car brake pads, also known as brake linings, refer to the friction materials fixed on the brake drum or brake disc rotating with the wheel. The friction lining and friction block bear external pressure to generate friction, thereby decelerating the vehicle. 2. Car brake pads are generally composed of steel plates, adhesive heat insulation layers, and friction blocks.

How many reference points are there for reverse parking?

There are 4 reference points for reverse parking. Below is a detailed introduction about reverse parking for cars: Overview: Reverse parking has been a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license since 2013, mainly assessing the driver's ability to operate the vehicle in a confined space. Reverse parking is one of the assessment points in the driver's test. It involves maneuvering the vehicle correctly into a garage from both sides while in motion. Others: The test area is 16 meters long and 6.83 meters wide. The garage is 5.25 meters long and 2.31 meters wide. Not following the prescribed route or sequence results in failure. Running over the line or failing to park properly results in failure. Exceeding 210 seconds to complete reverse parking results in failure. Stopping midway deducts 5 points each time.

What are the consequences of not wearing a seatbelt in the passenger seat?

If the passenger does not wear a seatbelt, traffic police on duty can impose corresponding fines on the passenger. Below are the functions and performance requirements of seatbelts: Functions of seatbelts: Seatbelts serve to restrain movement and provide cushioning, absorbing impact energy and mitigating inertial forces, thereby preventing or reducing the severity of injuries to occupants. Car accident investigations show that in frontal collisions, wearing a seatbelt can reduce fatalities by 57%, by 44% in side collisions, and by 80% in rollovers. Performance requirements for seatbelts: For seatbelt assemblies used on single-seat chairs, including webbing, release devices, and other components, after being tightened according to specified test requirements, they must withstand a load of at least 6,672 newtons in the axial direction of the seatbelt. For seatbelt assemblies used on double-seat chairs, the rated strength should be at least 13,344 newtons. The rated strength of seatbelt assemblies is correspondingly marked on each half of the belt in every seatbelt assembly.

Is it mandatory to carry a driver's license while driving?

It is required to carry a driver's license while driving. According to Articles 95 and 90 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, driving a motor vehicle without carrying a motor vehicle driver's license is considered a violation of the law. Article 19 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that a motor vehicle driver's license must be carried while driving. Below is relevant information about driver's licenses: Applying for a driver's license in a different location: It is possible to apply for a motor vehicle driver's license in a different location, but only for Class C motor vehicle driver's licenses. For other types of motor vehicle driver's licenses, applications must be made in the region of the applicant's household registration, and applications cannot be made elsewhere. The application for a motor vehicle driver's license is strictly controlled by age, so attention is required. Documents required for applying for a driver's license: The document needed to apply for a motor vehicle driver's license is an ID card. In case the ID card is lost, a temporary ID card can be obtained from the local public security authority, which can also be used to apply for a motor vehicle driver's license. Additionally, the document must be carried during subsequent exams; otherwise, the exam cannot be taken, which may delay the acquisition of the license.

How many hours does it take to fully charge an electric vehicle?

It takes approximately 5-10 hours to fully charge an electric vehicle. When the charging indicator light changes from red to green, it indicates that the battery is fully charged. If time permits, it is advisable to continue charging for an additional 1-1.5 hours to allow the battery to absorb more energy. However, continuous charging should not exceed 12 hours, as it may cause battery deformation and damage. Battery maintenance tips: Fully charge before first use: Newly purchased electric vehicles should be fully charged before use. Many electric vehicles have been stored in shops for several months or even longer, so it is essential to charge them fully before initial use. After full charging, it is best not to use the vehicle immediately; let it sit for about ten minutes. Secure battery installation: When removing the battery for charging, ensure it is securely installed on the electric bicycle to prevent vibration damage during riding. Avoid dropping, rolling, or applying heavy pressure to the battery during transportation. Keep it clean: Maintain the battery in a dry and clean condition. Regularly remove dust and dirt from the battery cover and ensure the battery remains dry and clean to prevent self-discharge.
