Car four basic insurance are vehicle damage insurance, third-party liability insurance, no-deductible insurance, and passenger insurance. The following is the relevant introduction: Vehicle damage insurance: Vehicle damage insurance, abbreviated as 'vehicle loss insurance', is the most widely used type of vehicle insurance. Whether it's minor scratches or serious damage, the insurance company will cover the repair costs. Third-party liability insurance: Third-party liability insurance refers to the financial liability that the insured or their permitted drivers must bear for accidental injuries or direct property damage to third parties caused by the use of the insured vehicle during an accident, which the insurance company is responsible for compensating. No-deductible insurance: No-deductible insurance means that if an accident within the scope of insurance liability occurs to a vehicle insured with vehicle damage insurance and third-party liability insurance, resulting in vehicle damage (excluding theft) or third-party liability compensation, the insurer is responsible for compensating the amount stipulated in the 'Terms'. Passenger insurance: Passenger insurance refers to the financial liability that the insured must bear for personal injuries or deaths of passengers in the insured vehicle caused by an accident during the use of the insured vehicle by the insured or their permitted legal drivers during the insurance period, for which the insurer is responsible for compensating according to the provisions of this insurance contract.

Honestly, after driving for so many years, I've personally experienced the importance of those four basic insurances: Compulsory Traffic Insurance is mandatory by the state, ensuring some compensation when you hit someone else. Like that time I rear-ended someone, it was all thanks to this coverage. Vehicle Damage Insurance covers damages to your own car, such as scratches while parked—the insurance company directly reimburses the repair costs, saving both money and hassle. Third-Party Liability Insurance provides extra coverage for hitting third-party people or property. It's best to opt for a higher coverage amount, so if you accidentally damage someone's luxury car, you won't have to empty your pockets. Passenger Liability Insurance protects your passengers, especially since I often take my kids out for fun. In case of sudden braking injuries, it covers medical expenses. I believe none of these can be skipped—skimping on insurance is the dumbest investment because accidents always come knocking. Whenever my friends hesitate to buy full coverage, I urge them to think about the consequences.

As a new car owner, I was initially confused about these basic insurances: compulsory traffic insurance is government-mandated, meaning if you hit someone, it provides minimum compensation as a safety net; vehicle damage insurance specifically covers your own car—when my new car was hit by a tree branch in the community, I got it repaired without paying a dime thanks to this; third-party liability insurance covers damage to other people or property, like hitting a store sign; passenger liability insurance is for your passengers—I made sure to add this during the test drive, feeling more secure when driving with family. Now I think beginners should understand these early on, not just listen to sales pitches. A quick call to the insurance company clarifies everything, avoiding regrets when accidents happen.

Looking back on over thirty years of driving, the basic insurance coverage has remained largely unchanged: compulsory traffic insurance serves as the baseline, ensuring minimal compensation; vehicle damage insurance protects the car; third-party liability insurance covers damage to others; and passenger liability insurance takes care of passengers. In the early days, I knew nothing and didn't purchase full coverage, ending up paying hefty repair costs out of pocket. Later, I opted for comprehensive insurance and felt much more at ease. Now, I see these as essential safeguards for driving—they're worth every penny when needed.

What Causes Slow Cooling of Car Air Conditioning After Prolonged Sun Exposure?

Car air conditioning cools slowly after prolonged sun exposure due to the compressor protection device tripping. Causes and solutions for excessively high pressure and overheating: 1. Excessive refrigerant: Appropriately reduce the refrigerant amount. 2. Poor heat dissipation: Check for dirt on condenser pipes and clean the condenser. 3. Blocked pipeline system: Refer to pressure gauge readings for diagnosis and resolution, then reprocess the system. 4. Dust accumulation on evaporator or filter: Reduced airflow causes system pressure and temperature imbalance; clean the evaporator or filter. 5. Possible refrigerant deficiency: When refrigerant is insufficient, compressor exhaust temperature becomes excessively hot, causing the overload protection switch to trip.

What is the cross-sectional area of car battery cables?

For small passenger vehicles, the national standard recommends pure copper cables with a cross-sectional area of 16 square millimeters. However, for large engineering vehicles, the recommended national standard is 25 square millimeters of pure copper. If the cable size falls below the recommended value, it may be difficult to jump-start the engine. With constant power and voltage, thicker cables have lower resistance, ultimately delivering greater current to the starter motor. Additional information: Precautions for using car batteries: Ensure the auxiliary battery is 12V and the negative terminal is properly grounded. Of course, all unnecessary lights and accessories should be turned off to prevent electrical accidents. Never reverse the polarity of the cables, as this may cause sparks during connection. Additionally, make sure the cables are tightly secured to both battery terminals (for full contact) to avoid sparking during the jump-start process.

What are the three filters in the three-filter maintenance?

The three-filter maintenance refers to the maintenance of the engine oil filter, air filter, and fuel filter in a car. 1. Air filter: The function of the air filter is to filter the air before it enters the cylinder, removing impurities, dust, sand, and other foreign particles. 2. Fuel filter: The fuel filter's core is mostly made of filter paper, but some use nylon cloth or polymer materials. Its purpose is to filter out solid impurities such as iron oxide and dust, as well as water from the gasoline. This not only reduces the chance of the fuel injector being clogged by impurities but also ensures the quality of the gasoline flowing into the fuel system. 3. Engine oil filter: Its function is to remove various impurities from the engine oil to ensure the normal operation of the lubrication system.

What is the actual range of a Tesla in kilometers?

Tesla Model-S and Model-X Long Range versions achieved ranges of 660KM and 575KM respectively in the national standard driving cycle test. During actual road driving, the vehicle's range will continuously adjust based on usage conditions. The actual mileage is also influenced by other factors such as vehicle configuration, battery usage duration and condition, driving habits and operations, environmental and climate conditions, etc. Charging efficiency: With faster charging speeds and a new efficient powertrain design, Model-S and Model-X can now achieve up to 200kW charging power at third-generation Superchargers and up to 145kW at second-generation Superchargers. These updates can improve customer charging efficiency by 50%.

What is the speed limit for large buses on highways?

Highways generally have a speed limit of 120 km/h, so the speed of large buses is usually between 100-110 km/h. Lane speed limits: Highways should indicate the speed limits for each lane, with the maximum speed not exceeding 120 km/h and the minimum speed not lower than 60 km/h. Vehicle speed limits: On highways, the maximum speed for small passenger vehicles should not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles should not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles should not exceed 80 km/h. If the speed limit indicated by road signs differs from the above lane speed regulations, drivers should follow the speed limit indicated by the road signs.
