Here is an introduction to the pros and cons of 21-inch wheels: 1. Cons: On roads with mud pits, stones, or steel plates, 21-inch tires with large wheels and thin sidewalls are prone to blowouts, and the ride tends to be bumpier compared to smaller wheels. The overall elasticity of 21-inch tires is poor, making it harder to absorb and filter out vehicle vibrations on uneven roads. This means the thinner the tire, the higher the risk of bulging and blowouts. Additionally, 21-inch tires consume more fuel. 2. Pros: Aesthetically, upgraded 21-inch wheels look more impressive and offer a premium feel, meeting the demands of car owners. In terms of driving, they enhance handling performance by increasing wheel width, resulting in noticeable improvements in acceleration, braking, and cornering responsiveness. Drivers can feel a significant difference, whether accelerating from a standstill or during motion, as the car feels noticeably lighter and more agile.

Does the Dash Cam Continue Recording After the Car is Turned Off?

Dash cams do continue recording after the car is turned off, but the recording duration is not very long since the dash cam is not being charged once the vehicle is turned off. There are two types of parking monitoring functions for dash cams: one is continuous recording, and the other only activates short-term recording when the vehicle detects vibration. During the day, dash cams operate using the car's electrical power. When the vehicle is turned off, the dash cam stops functioning. Although many dash cams have built-in batteries, some can only last for four to five hours in standby mode, while others may only sustain recording for about half an hour. Therefore, dash cams cannot continue recording for extended periods after the car is turned off.

Is It Serious If the Wheel Hub Gets Scratched by the Curb?

If the wheel hub gets scratched by the curb and the situation is severe, it is serious and should be repaired at a maintenance shop. Precautions for wheel hub repair: 1. During the wheel repair process, pay attention to the safety of the tire to prevent a tire blowout during repair, which could cause harm and loss; 2. The repair should not be scheduled immediately after stopping the vehicle, as the heat generated by friction in the tire has not yet dissipated, and the wheel may deform. Immediate repair at this time can cause stress and damage the wheel; 3. Before repair, check the wheel surface for cracks. If cracks are present, they should be addressed first. Otherwise, hasty repair may not only fail to solve the problem but also cause greater damage to the wheel.

Can I buy and register a car without a driver's license?

You can buy and register a car without a driver's license. Having a driver's license is not related to whether you can purchase and register a car. A driver's license only proves whether you are qualified to drive a vehicle, while the vehicle registration certificate proves that the car belongs to you—these two are not in conflict. Although the owner cannot drive without a license, they can hand the vehicle over to someone else to drive. A driver's license can only be used by the holder, but it allows them to drive other vehicles within the permitted categories. The full name of a driver's license is a motor vehicle driving license, which is a legal document required for driving motor vehicles. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain skills, and without these skills, driving recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, people without a license are not allowed to drive on the road.

Will driving against traffic always be captured by cameras?

Driving against traffic will definitely be captured by cameras. According to the regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses, driving a motor vehicle without following the rules for overtaking or yielding, or driving against traffic, will result in a 3-point deduction. If a driver reverses or drives against traffic on a highway, or makes a U-turn by crossing the central divider, their license will be deducted 12 points at once. The difference between driving against traffic and borrowing a lane is that driving against traffic is illegal and the driver bears full responsibility; borrowing a lane is legal, but it can only be done when the borrowed lane is clear, otherwise the driver may bear full or partial responsibility. Borrowing a lane refers to temporarily entering the opposite lane when there is an obstacle ahead or unclear visibility, without affecting oncoming traffic, and then returning to one's own lane after passing the obstacle.

Can the Dash Cam Work When the Car is Turned Off?

Dash cams can work when the car is turned off, provided that the device has a parking monitoring (motion detection) function. The parking monitoring feature requires the dash cam to have a built-in battery or to be connected to the ACC fuse for power supply. After the vehicle is turned off, the dash cam automatically enters parking monitoring mode, where its sensors continuously monitor the vehicle's condition. If any abnormality or vibration is detected, it will automatically record the monitoring video and save it separately. Compared to constant power connection, dash cams with parking monitoring connected to the ACC fuse are more energy-efficient and have less impact on the car battery. However, if the vehicle is left unused for several consecutive days, this may still lead to battery drain and difficulty starting the car.

Should the Uphill or Downhill Vehicle Yield?

On normal road slopes during oncoming traffic, the downhill vehicle yields to the uphill vehicle; on icy or snowy road slopes, the uphill vehicle yields to the downhill vehicle. The downhill vehicle yielding to the uphill vehicle is primarily for safety considerations—if the downhill vehicle cannot brake in time, it may collide with the uphill vehicle. Thus, yielding to the uphill vehicle ensures greater safety for the downhill vehicle, as even if it fails to brake, it won't hit another car. When both uphill and downhill vehicles are at opposite ends of the slope, allowing the downhill vehicle to proceed first can lead to higher speeds and increased danger. Conversely, if the uphill vehicle goes first, any potential accidents would result in less severe consequences compared to the downhill vehicle. When both vehicles are in the middle of the slope, for manual transmission vehicles, making the uphill vehicle yield to the downhill vehicle increases the risk of stalling and rolling backward, which can lead to traffic accidents.
