According to the type of tow truck license plate, it can be divided into the following two points: 1. Blue plate vehicle: A driver's license of C or above is required. The tow truck must meet the following conditions: the total length of the vehicle must be less than 6 meters; the tonnage must not exceed 1.5 tons; the total mass must be less than 4.5 tons. 2. Yellow plate vehicle: A driver's license of B or above is required. The tow truck must meet the following conditions: tow trucks with a total length exceeding 6 meters require a yellow plate. However, if you have a B license, you can also drive a blue-plate tow truck, which means the higher the license level, the more types of vehicles you can drive. According to the towing method, it can be divided into the following two points: Method 1: For vehicles towed away by a tow truck, a B2 driver's license is sufficient. Method 2: If the faulty vehicle is towed on the ground, an A2 (tractor) driver's license is required.

How to Turn on the Car's Air Conditioning for Cold Air?

Generally, the blue button in a car represents cold air, the red button represents warm air, and the middle setting represents a moderate temperature. To turn on the cold air, simply adjust the button towards the blue side, and make sure to press the AC switch. Explanation of air conditioning buttons: 1. A/C Button: Compressor switch, which starts the compressor to begin cooling. 2. FRONT Button: Front window defroster switch, which directs airflow to the front windshield when turned on. 3. REAR Button: Rear window defroster switch, which activates the heating element on the rear windshield when turned on. 4. MODE Button: Airflow direction adjustment switch. The design of airflow direction adjustment buttons in automatic air conditioning systems is becoming more user-friendly. Many car models feature intuitive buttons representing the head, upper body, and feet for easy operation. However, most car models still use conventional airflow direction adjustment, typically controlled by a single button. Manual air conditioning systems usually feature rotary knobs.

Do you need a driver's license to drive a new energy vehicle?

Driving a new energy vehicle requires a driver's license. There are many types of new energy vehicles, but in terms of vehicle length, width, and speed, they are the same as motor vehicles and are classified as motor vehicles in nature. Therefore, a driver's license must be carried while driving. New energy vehicles and ordinary vehicles both fall under the category of motor vehicles. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," drivers must have a driver's license corresponding to the appropriate driving level to operate a motor vehicle on the road. Otherwise, it is considered unlicensed driving. Therefore, when driving a motor vehicle, the driver should carry the motor vehicle driver's license. Failure to carry the driver's license is a violation of the law and may result in corresponding penalties. The required driver's license level for household new energy vehicles is C-class or above, which is no different from driving an ordinary car. However, the standard for obtaining a C2 driver's license can be appropriately lowered. Electric vehicles are first and foremost cars, and secondly, they are electric. The attributes of a car will not differ due to differences in the driving machine or the energy used.

What are the reasons why the sunroof of Roewe rx5 cannot be closed?

The reasons why the sunroof of Roewe rx5 cannot be closed include aging, excessive dirt, or deformation of the glass sealing strip, as well as excessive dirt on the glass guide rail. Below are the specific reasons why the sunroof of Roewe rx5 cannot be closed: 1. Aging, excessive dirt, or deformation of the glass sealing strip: This can create resistance to the rising or lowering of the glass. Generally, if it is aging or deformation, it is best to replace the sealing strip with a new one. If it is just dirty, cleaning it directly will suffice. Spraying some dashboard wax on the glass sealing strip or applying talcum powder (to act as a lubricant) can usually achieve good results. 2. Excessive dirt on the glass lifting guide rail: This is also a lubrication issue. Cleaning the glass lifting guide rail and applying grease can eliminate the fault. 3. Glass lifter failure: This includes faults in the glass lifting guide rail, wire faults, slider faults, etc., and the glass lifter can only be replaced.

How to Apply for M-Station Certification in Automotive Exhaust Treatment?

To qualify, the applicant must have maintained an AA-level or higher automotive repair certification in the previous year. The application materials should be submitted online via the Public Service Platform for Motor Vehicle Maintenance. Upon approval, the station will be designated as an M-Station, authorized to undertake automotive exhaust repair projects. Below are the relevant details: 1. Practical Testing: Nitrogen oxides (NO), carcinogenic gases emitted by motor vehicles, are 20 to 30 times higher than the Euro 3 emission standards. Primary pollutants such as hydrocarbons (HC) and nitrogen oxides (NO) emitted by motor vehicles undergo photochemical reactions under sunlight, forming more toxic secondary pollutants—photochemical smog. A 2014 research report by the Chinese Academy of Sciences indicated that this type of photochemical smog constitutes the highest proportion in haze. 2. Normalization: Due to the rapid and extensive development of China's automotive industry chain, emissions from motor vehicles have sharply increased in the atmosphere, making severe regional haze a normalized phenomenon.
