How many points will be deducted for going straight in a U-turn lane?

According to the "Road Traffic Safety Law", violators will be penalized with 3 demerit points. Going straight in a U-turn lane is considered a violation of the prohibition signs or markings for motor vehicles. However, if it is a combined U-turn and straight lane, no demerit points will be deducted. Permissible U-turn situations: Intersections with U-turn signs allow U-turns: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, a U-turn can be made. If there is a U-turn traffic light, the U-turn must follow the signal. If there is no traffic light, a U-turn can be made based on the specific situation, provided it does not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. Intersections without explicit prohibition of U-turns or left turns allow U-turns: If there is no explicit prohibition of U-turns at the location, a U-turn can be made. Here, "no explicit prohibition of U-turns" means that as long as there are no "No U-turn signs," "No left turn signs," or solid lines in the middle of the road, a U-turn can be safely made. Yellow grid lines also allow U-turns: Yellow grid lines are actually no-parking grid lines painted at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary parking, important unit entrances, and other locations where they are needed. Any vehicle stopping on the no-parking grid line (including waiting for traffic lights) is considered a violation. Although vehicles cannot stop in the yellow grid line area, U-turns are allowed in this area. As long as there is no central road barrier, yellow grid lines are equivalent to "U-turn permitted." Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward. If there is a U-turn traffic light, you must follow the signal—only proceed on green. When both "No left turn" and "U-turn permitted" signs appear: U-turns are allowed, but left turns are prohibited. However, "No U-turn" is not the same as "No left turn." Precautions when making U-turns at intersections: Observe the road markings. If they are solid lines, U-turns are not allowed under any circumstances. Continue driving forward to find a suitable location for a U-turn. If there is a "No left turn" sign ahead, even if there is no mention of prohibiting U-turns, U-turns cannot be made at this intersection because the actions of left turns and U-turns are very similar, and U-turns always involve a left turn first. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. If you are in the second left-turn lane, you cannot make a U-turn at this intersection. When making a U-turn, you must yield to vehicles going straight and only proceed if it does not interfere with their normal movement. Otherwise, you will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Generally, near the intersection stop line, lanes have guiding arrows for vehicles to choose their direction. The leftmost lane does not always have a left-turn arrow. On some roads, if there is a straight arrow, even without explicit "No U-turn" signs, U-turns are not allowed. U-turns cannot be made on pedestrian crosswalks, as this is also a violation.

Is 10W-40 engine oil for winter or summer use?

10W-40 is the SAE standard viscosity value, where W stands for WINTER. 10W-40 engine oil can be used in winter. For 10W-40 automotive engine oil, it can generally be used normally at temperatures ranging from below zero to above 20 degrees. Additional information is as follows: Winter oil models include 0W, 5W, 10W, 15W, 20W, and 25W. The smaller the number before W, the lower the viscosity at low temperatures, the better the flow performance at low temperatures, and the lower the minimum suitable temperature. The number after W indicates the oil viscosity at 100°C.

Should sealant be applied for a leaking valve cover gasket?

Sealant should be applied for a leaking valve cover gasket. Applying sealant to the valve cover gasket primarily serves a sealing function to prevent engine oil leakage. Below are relevant details: 1. It is a rubber gasket, visible upon disassembling the valve cover, with each spark plug tube sleeve having one gasket that serves to seal and prevent oil leakage; 2. The valve cover gasket is highly useful, mainly addressing issues such as poor sealing of piston rings due to engine aging; 3. Blow-by gases causing excessive exhaust pressure leading to poor sealing of the valve cover gasket, or the use of low-quality engine oil resulting in excessive carbon buildup and piston ring sticking, uneven force during valve cover installation, as well as aging of the valve cover gasket, can all cause oil leakage from the valve cover gasket.

Where is the headlight height adjustment for the Lynk & Co 03?

The headlight height adjustment button for the Lynk & Co 03 is located in the main driver's control area. On the far left near the door, there is a black plastic button that can be rolled up and down, accompanied by indicator lines that transition from thick to thin. Rolling the button up or down adjusts the height. A higher numerical value results in a higher light beam, which is more likely to cause glare for oncoming drivers. Below are the headlight height adjustment standards: 1. Level 0: Suitable when the front seats are occupied and the trunk is empty. 2. Level 1: Suitable when the vehicle is fully occupied and the trunk is empty. 3. Level 2: Suitable when the vehicle is fully occupied and the trunk is fully loaded. 4. Level 3: Suitable when the vehicle is fully occupied and the trunk is fully loaded.
