There are several situations where you can make a U-turn without waiting for the left-turn signal: 1. At an intersection where there is a sign indicating that U-turns are not controlled by traffic lights, you can make a U-turn directly without waiting for the green light. 2. At an intersection where there is a dashed line for U-turns before the stop line, and the dashed line does not extend beyond the stop line, you can make a U-turn directly without being controlled by traffic lights. 3. At an intersection where there is a dedicated U-turn channel before the stop line, such as in a median or behind a barrier, U-turns are not controlled by traffic lights. When making a U-turn at an intersection where it is permitted, whether or not you need to observe the traffic signals, you must not obstruct other vehicles or pedestrians who are proceeding normally on the road. Vehicles making a U-turn do not have the right of way.

Should the Old Battery Be Kept When Replacing a Car Battery?

When replacing a car battery, the old battery does not need to be kept and can be directly sold to stores for recycling. The following is a related introduction to battery lifespan: Battery Lifespan: The designed lifespan of a battery is 27 months. Generally, family cars are more economical, and new car batteries can often last 3-4 years. However, after the first replacement, it is usually necessary to replace the battery every 2 years or so. Factors Affecting Battery Lifespan: Several factors that affect battery lifespan include: the condition of the car, road conditions, and the driver's habits. Generally, newer cars are more battery-efficient because the starter motor works better and saves battery power, and the alternator functions well, allowing the battery to be fully charged. As the car ages, especially after replacing major components like the starter motor and alternator, the battery is more likely to fail. This is because the price difference between original factory parts and refurbished parts for these components is significant in the market, making it easy for car owners to opt for non-original parts, leading to quicker battery deterioration.

What Are the Brands for Automotive Exhaust Modification?

What Causes the Hissing Noise in Car Radios?

Car radios produce abnormal noises due to poor contact in audio cables, excessively long ground wires, etc. Here are the specific reasons: Poor Contact in Audio Cables: Because audio cables are most susceptible to current interference. Excessively Long Ground Wires: Since ground wire currents are relatively weak, if the wire is too long, it is prone to generating noise. Regardless of whether the grounding surface is good or not, the ground wire must be polished and cleaned at the point where it connects to the frame screw; otherwise, poor contact will cause current interference noise. Power and Audio Cables Not Separately Routed: Because some car modification and detailing shop workers connect power and audio cables together, which can generate current interference noise. Software Issues: Software-related causes of current noise in audio, such as differences in music formats or noise introduced during recording. Trying to play music in different formats can solve the problem.

Can Modified Car Exhaust Be Registered?

Modifying the exhaust pipe can be registered, but it is not allowed. Therefore, even if the owner actively registers the modified exhaust pipe, the traffic police department will order it to be restored within half a month. Car modifications are very common in daily life, mainly including body modifications and performance modifications. Before modifying a licensed vehicle, the owner must register and declare the modifications to the vehicle management office. The modification can only proceed after the technical report is reviewed and approved by the vehicle management office. Legal car modifications include the following: Body modifications: Body modifications can be achieved through decals or wraps, but the area covered must not exceed 30% of the vehicle's surface to be considered legal. If this limit is exceeded, approval from relevant authorities is required. Color modifications: In recent years, changing the vehicle's color has become popular. However, the owner must complete the modification registration with the vehicle management office within ten days and obtain a new driver's license. Most importantly, the color must not be changed to those reserved for national administrative law enforcement vehicles. Modifications to the body, frame, or engine: These are only permitted if the original parts are irreparably damaged or have quality issues. Otherwise, such modifications are illegal.
