Inspection overdue refers to a vehicle failing to complete its annual inspection in accordance with relevant regulations and requirements, or not applying for the annual inspection for one year. The following are the penalties related to vehicle inspection overdue: If the inspection is overdue for less than three months, the owner can simply make up for it and will receive a verbal warning without a fine; if the inspection is overdue for more than three months but less than two years, a fine must be paid, and 3 points will be deducted from the driver's license; if the vehicle has not undergone an annual inspection for more than two years, the vehicle's registration file will be canceled, and a fine is usually required for restoration; driving without a timely annual inspection is considered illegal driving and may result in the vehicle being impounded; if a vehicle fails to obtain the mandatory inspection compliance mark for three consecutive inspection cycles, it will be forcibly scrapped. Consequences of not undergoing annual inspection on time: Vehicles that do not participate in the annual inspection without reason or fail the inspection are not allowed to be driven on the road or transferred. Inspection overdue is considered illegal driving, and if an accident occurs, the insurance company will not provide compensation, so vehicle owners must ensure regular annual inspections. According to the motor vehicle registration regulations, if a vehicle does not undergo a safety technical inspection within the specified period, the public security traffic management department will issue a warning or impose a fine and deduct 3 points.

What is the width of a single lane on the highway?

For highways designed with a speed of 120km/h, the lane width is 3.75m, and the emergency stopping lane width is 3.5m. Here are the relevant details: 1. Article 78: Highways shall indicate the speed limit for each lane, with the maximum speed not exceeding 120 kilometers per hour and the minimum speed not less than 60 kilometers per hour. On highways, the maximum speed for small passenger vehicles shall not exceed 120 kilometers per hour, for other motor vehicles it shall not exceed 100 kilometers per hour, and for motorcycles it shall not exceed 80 kilometers per hour. 2. For two lanes in the same direction: the minimum speed for the left lane is 100 kilometers per hour; for three or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed for the leftmost lane is 110 kilometers per hour, and for the middle lane it is 90 kilometers per hour. If the speed indicated by road speed limit signs is inconsistent with the above lane speed regulations, the speed indicated by the road speed limit signs shall be followed.

What Causes Compressor Failure?

Compressor failure may be caused by liquid refrigerant entering the compressor, resulting in liquid compression, or poor oil return to the compressor. Below are detailed explanations of compressor failure: Liquid compression inside the compressor: When liquid refrigerant enters the compressor, it causes liquid compression, leading to the breakage of the scroll. As the liquid refrigerant enters the compressor chamber and undergoes compression, the incompressibility of the liquid exerts extreme lateral shear forces on the scroll, causing the fixed and orbiting scrolls to break and the compressor to seize. The solution is to immediately close the compressor's suction shut-off valve and stop the liquid supply by closing the expansion valve. Poor oil return to the compressor: Poor oil return (oil shortage) in the system prevents the compressor from delivering sufficient oil to all lubrication points. This causes friction at each lubrication point to intensify progressively from bottom to top. The friction leads to overheating of the orbiting scroll bushing, eventually causing it to burn out or even seize. In severe cases, the bushing may experience significant wear and breakage. It is essential to promptly check and replenish the compressor oil.

What Are the Hazards of Idling for 2 Hours to a Car?

Idling for 2 hours can cause several hazards to a car, including carbon buildup, excessive fuel consumption, and damage to the catalytic converter. The specific hazards are as follows: Carbon Buildup: If the engine runs at idle for a long time, the throttle opening will be very small, and the fuel injector will spray highly concentrated fuel to keep the engine running. Therefore, idling itself is more likely to cause carbon buildup compared to driving or highway speeds. Prolonged idling will inevitably lead to more severe carbon buildup in the engine, directly affecting the car's power and comfort. Excessive Fuel Consumption: According to tests, idling for three minutes consumes fuel equivalent to driving one kilometer. This means that idling for 2 hours can consume almost 2–3 liters of fuel. Catalytic Converter Damage: Prolonged idling results in an overly rich air-fuel mixture in the engine, leading to low oxygen content in the exhaust gases. The unburned mixture may combust at the catalytic converter, which can easily damage it.

What Causes the Vehicle to Shake When Shifting from D to R Gear?

The shaking may be caused by the following three reasons: 1. The engine or transmission mount rubber is broken or damaged, causing the engine or transmission to not be properly connected and cushioned, resulting in vibration when shifting gears. 2. The engine ignition system or intake system is not functioning properly, causing unstable engine speed and leading to vehicle vibration. However, after reading the data stream of the faulty vehicle's engine, all data indicators show normal, the engine speed is very stable, and the speed needle does not swing back and forth with the vibration. Therefore, this possibility can basically be ruled out. 3. The transmission's lock-up clutch is not working properly, causing a rigid connection of the torque converter, thus leading to vibration. But after reading the data stream of the faulty vehicle's transmission, all data indicators are normal, and the torque converter slip value of the transmission is within the normal range. Additionally, if the lock-up clutch is abnormally engaged, the engine speed needle would also swing back and forth when the vehicle shakes. Therefore, it can be preliminarily judged that the fault of this vehicle should not be caused by damage to internal components of the transmission.
