Active braking and active safety systems have the following meanings: 1. Active braking refers to a technology where the vehicle can actively generate braking effects to decelerate when encountering sudden situations during normal driving without adaptive cruise control, thereby improving driving safety. 2. Active safety system refers to a safety system that includes electronic devices such as ABS and ESP. When the vehicle ahead brakes, stops, or encounters other obstacles, this system automatically increases the force on the braking system to help the driver shorten the braking distance before taking action. Automotive safety systems are mainly divided into active safety systems and passive safety systems. The role of active safety is to avoid accidents; passive safety is the protection of the vehicle's occupants or the protection of the impacted vehicle or pedestrian in the event of an accident.

Can You Buy a Car in Stock at a 4S Store?

4S stores have cars in stock that can be purchased, but it is not recommended to pick up the car on the same day. The reasons are as follows: 1. Tight pickup time: Since 4S stores usually start receiving customers after 9 or 10 in the morning, and customers generally arrive at the 4S store relatively late, the time available to complete the purchase and pickup on the same day becomes very limited. This can easily lead to negligence in processes such as vehicle inspection and paperwork, and sometimes carelessness may result in serious consequences. 2. Car insurance not yet effective: Due to the effective period of car insurance, generally, the insurance purchased on the same day only takes effect at midnight the next day. Therefore, if a customer picks up the car on the same day of purchase and the vehicle is involved in a scratch or accident, all losses will have to be borne by the customer themselves.

Where to Obtain the Vehicle Inspection Exemption Label?

Vehicle inspection exemption labels can be applied for at the local vehicle management office without any fees. The vehicle owner must personally bring relevant documents, including the vehicle's driving license (original and copy), the ID card of the vehicle owner, the compulsory traffic insurance policy, and the tax payment or tax exemption certificate for vehicle and vessel tax. Here are the relevant details: 1. Definition of Vehicle Inspection Exemption: Vehicle inspection exemption means that for vehicles meeting the exemption conditions within 6 years, the on-site inspection process is waived. Owners only need to apply for the inspection label every two years and affix it to the vehicle as required. 2. Types of Vehicles Not Eligible for Inspection Exemption: ① Vehicles involved in accidents during this period, i.e., new vehicles involved in fatal accidents within 6 years, are not eligible for the exemption policy. ② Vans (referring to vehicles with 7 or more seats). ③ Vehicles that have not been registered for a long time after purchase are not eligible for exemption. For vehicles that have not been registered for more than 4 years since the date of manufacture, the original inspection rules apply, and they are not eligible for the exemption policy (still requiring inspection every 2 years within 6 years).

What does the low engine oil indicator look like?

The low engine oil warning light: Its shape resembles a teapot with a drop of liquid dripping down. When the engine oil replenishment indicator lights up, you should immediately take your car to a 4S shop for inspection and should not continue driving. Otherwise, it will accelerate engine wear and may cause irreversible damage to the engine itself. Here are some related details: 1. Engine oil filling standard: Engine oil should generally be filled to slightly above the middle point between the minimum and maximum marks on the dipstick, never exceeding the maximum or falling below the minimum mark. Exceeding the maximum mark will increase the rotational resistance of the engine crankshaft and affect performance, while falling below the minimum mark will prevent adequate lubrication protection for internal engine components. 2. Engine oil replacement cycle: Different manufacturers have varying requirements for oil change intervals. Generally, engine oil should be checked and replaced at a 4S shop every 5,000 kilometers/6 months. If you use fully synthetic oil, it can be replaced every 8,000 kilometers.

Is the Environmental Protection Label Still Required?

Environmental protection labels are no longer required. Below is a partial introduction to emission standards: 1. Definition: These are national regulations that set limits on the concentration or total amount of pollutants discharged into the environment by artificial pollution sources. General pollutant emission standards specify the allowable discharge amounts for various pollutants that are widespread or particularly harmful within a certain area (nationwide or regional), applicable to all industries. Some general emission standards specify allowable discharge amounts based on different discharge directions (e.g., water pollutants discharged into sewers, rivers, lakes, or seas). 2. Overview: Emission standards refer to the harmful gases discharged from vehicle exhaust, including carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, soot, etc. 3. Reason: On July 25, 2016, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Public Security, and the National Certification and Accreditation Administration jointly issued the "Notice on Further Standardizing Emission Inspections and Strengthening Environmental Supervision and Management of Motor Vehicles" (National Environmental Regulation Atmosphere [2016] No. 2), which clearly states that "environmental protection departments will no longer issue motor vehicle environmental protection inspection compliance labels."
