PRNDS stands for the following: 1. P (Parking): This gear locks the transmission output shaft when engaged. 2. R (Reverse): This gear engages the reverse hydraulic circuit, causing the drive wheels to rotate backward for reverse movement. Never force shift into "R" when the vehicle is not completely stopped, as it may damage the transmission. 3. N (Neutral): In this gear, the planetary gear system idles without power output. 4. D (Drive): This gear automatically shifts between forward gears based on throttle position and vehicle speed signals, enabling automatic transmission functionality. 5. S (Sport): This mode allows direct shifting into "S" during driving for hill climbing or rapid overtaking.

What is the penalty for crossing a solid white line at a traffic light?

Crossing a solid white line at a traffic light, if caught by electronic police or traffic police on the spot, will result in a penalty of 3 demerit points and a fine. However, under special circumstances where it does not affect the movement of other vehicles, crossing the line to change lanes is permissible. It is advisable to preserve evidence (such as dashcam footage) to potentially apply for administrative reconsideration to overturn the penalty later. If a traffic accident occurs due to running a red light and crossing a solid white line, full responsibility may be assumed depending on the situation. To avoid such violations, traffic authorities remind drivers: generally, solid lines on the road should not be crossed arbitrarily. When traffic police are present directing traffic, their instructions must be followed. Currently, crossing a solid white line when making a right turn at an intersection is temporarily not penalized, allowing for a transition period, but drivers should not take this leniency for granted.

How long after drinking a beer can you drive?

How long after drinking a beer can you drive? This time is not absolute, because the metabolic rate of alcohol in the human body is related to many factors. Each person's alcohol metabolism rate is different, and even the same person may have different metabolic rates at different times or in different environments. The metabolic rate of alcohol in the human body is limited. Generally, a normal person can metabolize about 10 to 15 milliliters of alcohol per hour. It takes approximately 10 hours to fully metabolize one bottle of beer. Therefore, after drinking one bottle of beer, it is best to rest for 10 hours and wait until the alcohol is completely metabolized before driving.

Will No U-Turn Violations Definitely Be Captured?

No U-turn violations will definitely be captured, but not all violating vehicles can be photographed. Only when the license plate image is clear can the information entry personnel input the violating vehicle into the database for processing. A camera usually only captures one lane, with a few capable of capturing two lanes. Digital cameras have a wider shooting range, and most can capture all lanes in the same direction within urban areas. The following situations absolutely do not allow U-turns: 1. Intersections with no U-turn signs; 2. Intersections where left turns are prohibited, U-turns are also not allowed; 3. On zebra crossings, if there is no no U-turn sign or U-turn signal at the intersection, drivers cannot make a U-turn directly on the zebra crossing. They must pass the zebra crossing before making a U-turn.

What does the ETC toll photo on the highway mean?

Highway ETC toll photo refers to the use of gantries to divide the highway into several sections. Gantries are devices installed on highways to calculate toll amounts, and they are placed at certain intervals. Each time a vehicle passes under a gantry, the cameras mounted on it will take photos and calculate the toll based on the vehicle type, and the corresponding toll fee will be deducted from the vehicle's ETC. ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection, a system that is being actively developed and promoted internationally for electronic tolling, mainly used for the management of bridges, tunnels, highways, and parking lots. When a vehicle passes through a toll station, there is no need to stop; the system automatically identifies the vehicle via onboard equipment and deducts the corresponding fee from the pre-linked bank account or IC card. By using this system, drivers only need to install a transponder card on their windshield and pre-load a certain amount of money. When passing through a toll station, there is no need for manual payment or stopping, as the toll is automatically deducted from the card.
