Methods to remove adhesive marks from a car without damaging the paint include: 1. Soaking and wiping with warm water—pour warm water onto a cleaning cloth, cover the adhesive marks on the car body, and the adhesive will melt, making it easy to wipe off; 2. Wiping with a soapy water solution; 3. Using a clay bar—a high-density clay-like substance with strong cleaning and polishing effects; 4. Soaking and wiping with an alcohol solvent, such as high-proof liquor, as alcohol effectively dissolves and removes adhesive. Car maintenance methods include: 1. Washing the car only after the engine has cooled down; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly cleaning dirt and stains from the car body; 4. Rinsing with clean water after rain to prevent acid rain corrosion; 5. Avoiding parking in damp, dark places for extended periods to prevent rust; 6. Applying wax or sealant.

Which Vehicles Are Allowed to Drive on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge?

Vehicles permitted to travel on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge include cross-boundary buses, shuttle buses, cross-boundary taxis, freight vehicles, and cross-boundary private cars. Below are the detailed explanations: 1. The port shuttle buses serve as the primary mode of transportation between the Guangdong-Hong Kong and Hong Kong-Macao ports, offering frequent transfer services. During peak hours, buses run every 5 minutes; during off-peak hours, every 10–15 minutes; and late at night, every 15–30 minutes. There are no quota restrictions for port shuttle buses. 2. For cross-boundary taxis between Guangdong-Hong Kong and Hong Kong-Macao, there is no daily limit on the number of trips. 3. Regarding cross-boundary freight vehicles between Guangdong and Hong Kong, currently, these vehicles can pass through the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge without additional formalities (excluding trucks traveling to and from the Futian Bonded Zone). 4. For cross-boundary private cars between Hong Kong and Macao, private cars with quotas can enter and exit the urban areas of Hong Kong and Macao multiple times within the validity period. Additionally, eligible Hong Kong private car owners can participate in the "Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge Macao Port Park-and-Ride Scheme," driving their vehicles to the East Parking Lot of the Macao Port Immigration Building (the East Parking Lot has 3,000 pre-booked parking spaces for cross-boundary private cars). After completing immigration procedures at the Macao Immigration Building, they can transfer to other modes of transportation at the Macao Port to reach urban Macao.

What are the steps for reverse parking with an automatic transmission?

Need to align with the line at 1.5 meters, keeping the middle of the bottom of the left rearview mirror aligned with the yellow line while driving. Turn on the right turn signal, first let the vehicle reverse straight, when the starting line is seen at the lower edge of the left rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel fully to the right and continue reversing. Observe the distance between the right rear wheel and the corner of the parking space through the right rearview mirror, trying to maintain it at about 30cm.

If the steering wheel pulls to one side when braking, it is due to an imbalance in the brake calipers' pressure on the brake pads. Replacing both left and right brake calipers will resolve the issue. Regardless of which side the steering wheel pulls towards, it is recommended to replace both left and right brake calipers simultaneously.
