Penalties for fatigued driving: Drivers who operate medium-sized or larger passenger vehicles or hazardous material transport vehicles continuously for more than 4 hours without stopping to rest, or whose rest period is less than 20 minutes, will receive 12 demerit points. Drivers of other motor vehicles (excluding medium-sized or larger passenger vehicles and hazardous material transport vehicles) who drive continuously for more than 4 hours without stopping to rest or whose rest period is less than 20 minutes will receive 6 demerit points. Unlike drunk driving, which can be quantitatively determined by measuring the driver's alcohol level, identifying fatigued driving presents certain challenges. Currently, traffic police primarily employ safety reminders and have established temporary rest stations along special road sections such as highways.

Why Does the Seat Belt Always Get Stuck While Driving?

When driving, the seat belt often gets stuck because of incorrect sitting posture or improper fastening method of the shoulder belt. Here are some relevant details: 1. Adjust your sitting posture. The optimal distance between the driver and the steering wheel is when both arms are extended straight, with wrists resting on the steering wheel. The legs should be bent at approximately 90 degrees, and hands should be placed at the 9 and 3 o'clock positions in a nearly horizontal manner, which helps in effectively controlling the vehicle during emergencies. 2. Adjust the seat belt. Hold the buckle and latch plate. Slowly pull out the lap and shoulder belt. Ensure the shoulder belt passes over the shoulder, close to the neck, and fits snugly and comfortably against the body. Make sure the lap belt lies below the abdomen, as low as possible, and also fits snugly against the body. Insert the buckle into the latch until you hear a click.

Why is the BYD G6 not responding when starting?

BYD G6 not responding when starting could be due to a damaged battery, abnormal air-fuel mixture ratio, or unstable power supply voltage in the ignition system. The specific reasons are as follows: 1. Damaged battery: If this is the cause, it is difficult for the owner to detect it themselves, and it needs to be sent to a repair shop for professional computer testing. Additionally, it could be due to a depleted battery. If you often drive at low speeds in the city with headlights, air conditioning, audio, and other devices frequently turned on, the battery consumption is relatively high, which may lead to depletion. It is recommended to drive on the highway to fully charge the battery. 2. Abnormal air-fuel mixture ratio: This is the most common and typical reason. In this case, the engine starts normally but fails to ignite. This phenomenon occurs when the throttle valve, intake valve, or idle motor is too dirty. If the valves are too dirty, gasoline will be sprayed onto the back of the valves and absorbed by carbon deposits, preventing the car from starting. Cleaning these components can solve the problem. 3. Unstable power supply voltage in the ignition system: During winter, the engine's starting resistance increases, including insufficient battery power, leading to inadequate voltage in the entire ignition system. Additionally, many owners report that after starting, if they do not continue to press the accelerator, the car immediately stalls. This is caused by a dirty motor or fuel injector. You can slightly increase the throttle, or if that doesn't work, send it to a repair shop for thorough cleaning.

How Many Types of Wiper Clips Are There?

Six types of clips. They are plug-in clips (further divided into 16mm and 19mm widths) suitable for models like Citroën, New Bora, Volvo, Golf, Polo, etc.; side-hook clips suitable for models like Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Passat, Focus, etc.; top-lock clips; push-button clips; J-type quick-hook 9*4 clips; and J-type quick-hook 9*3 clips. Wiper Classification: Wipers can be categorized by their driving mechanisms into mechanical, vacuum, pneumatic, hydraulic, and electric types. Modern vehicles generally use electric wipers, which offer the advantages of simple structure and easy control. A typical car wiper consists of a motor, crank, linkage, wiper arm, and blade. Function of Wipers: Wipers are devices used to wipe away raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. Due to legal requirements, almost all vehicles worldwide are equipped with wipers. Rear windows of hatchbacks and SUVs also have wipers. When driving, it is essential to pay attention to the wipers. If the wipers malfunction, driving in rainy or snowy weather can become particularly troublesome. Based on the wiper's structural design, you can replace it yourself.
