Violation code 16371 means: Using forged or altered motor vehicle license plates. According to the relevant provisions of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," the penalty includes: Demerit points (deduction): 12 points; Fine amount: 2000 to 5000 yuan; Other penalties: Detention for up to 15 days. Traffic violation codes consist of four to five digits, classified according to the general principles of traffic laws. The sequence from left to right is as follows: the first digit is the behavior classification code, the second digit is the demerit point classification code, the third and fourth digits are the sequential code, and the fifth digit indicates the item number under the clause. First digit: Behavior classification code, indicating the category under the Road Traffic Law; Second digit: Demerit point classification code, indicating the category of demerit points for the traffic violation; Third, fourth, and fifth digits: Sequential code, indicating the order of the violation within the same behavior category. For example: 13035—"1" indicates motor vehicle behavior, the second digit "3" indicates a deduction of 3 points, and "035" indicates the fifth item under the third clause in the 3-point deduction category. Behavior classification code violation descriptions: Codes starting with "1" indicate motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 1003 Codes starting with "2" indicate non-motor vehicle traffic, e.g., 2002 Codes starting with "3" indicate pedestrian or passenger traffic, e.g., 3030 Codes starting with "4" indicate highway traffic, e.g., 4002 Codes starting with "5" indicate other regulations, e.g., 5005 Codes starting with "7" indicate implementation rules of provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities, e.g., 7008 Codes starting with "8" indicate local regulations of cities (prefectures, autonomous prefectures, or leagues), e.g., 8606 There are four common methods for motor vehicle violation inquiries: Visit the office lobby of the traffic police branches in various districts and counties to inquire through touch query terminals; Log in to the external service website of the Public Security Traffic Management Bureau of the municipal public security bureau, find the vehicle violation inquiry section, enter the license plate number and vehicle engine number, and click to inquire; Call the inquiry hotline (area code + 114); Use the Traffic Management 12123 client (V2.8.1B437 for iOS 15+ or V2.8.1B274 for Android 12+) to inquire. Violations involving the use of forged or altered motor vehicle license plates can be processed through this Traffic Management app client. After logging into the app, enter the violation handling business process, complete the handling, and make the payment.

16371 is a traffic violation code. I've made this mistake several times while driving on the highway, which means exceeding the speed limit by 20% to 50% on highways or urban expressways. That time I was driving at 130km/h where the speed limit was 100km/h, got caught by a speed camera, and ended up with a 200-yuan fine and 6 penalty points, which almost affected my insurance. Now I've learned my lesson - I keep an eye on the dashboard or set up speed limit alerts on my phone app while driving, and check tire pressure during breaks to maintain good vehicle condition and reduce risks. Speeding might seem minor, but it drastically increases accident probabilities, especially in rainy or foggy conditions. Friends who frequently drive on highways all recommend using cruise control to manage pedal pressure - safety first, don't rush for those few minutes.

I always prioritize safe driving. The violation code 16371 represents speeding 20% to 50% on highways or expressways, with a fine of 200 yuan and 6 penalty points. While it may not seem like a big deal, the risks are significant. When driving with my family, I never exceed the speed limit because speeding increases braking distance, and any accident could lead to irreversible regret. According to statistics, speeding is one of the main causes of accidents. When my child asks why I drive slower, I explain the dangers of high speed. I recommend downloading a traffic management app that can simulate road conditions and remind you of speed limits. During car maintenance, check the braking system to avoid issues caused by aging. Stay vigilant on the road and don't let traffic cameras catch you off guard.

16371 is the violation code for speeding, indicating driving 20% to 50% over the speed limit on highways or urban expressways. I've used in-car GPS to monitor speed in real-time and avoid being caught. The penalty for this violation is a 200-yuan fine and 6 demerit points, where tech software can be a great help. It's advisable for beginners to set up app warnings and not overlook changes in speed limit signs.

I just got my driver's license and received a notice numbered 16371. I didn't understand it until I checked and found out it meant speeding 20% to 50% on the highway. That night drive cost me a 200-yuan fine and 6 penalty points for going too fast—a lesson learned: new drivers need more practice with speed limit control, and setting voice alerts on navigation apps is wiser. I recommend handling fines through online traffic violation systems to save time. Drive safely and a bit slower—you'll always reach your destination.

Code 16371 indicates speeding 20% to 50% on highways or expressways. I often compare traffic rules: it's slightly better than Code 16372 for speeding over 50%, which carries harsher penalties but similar risks. When driving on open roads, I tend to accelerate, and speed cameras always catch me. Poor vehicle condition also adds trouble, so regular tire checks reduce accidents. Developing the habit of using APP warnings is the right way to ensure safe driving.

Do I need to be present in person for license plate registration at a 4S dealership?

You do not need to be present in person for license plate registration at a 4S dealership. Car owners who register their license plates at a 4S dealership only need to select their license plate number online in advance. The rest can be handled by the 4S dealership without requiring the owner's presence. In addition to 4S dealerships handling the process, online services can also assist with out-of-town license plate registration. Below is a related introduction to the materials required for vehicle license plate registration: 1. Original and photocopy of ID card. If you are handling it on behalf of someone else, both your ID card and the car owner's ID card must be brought. 2. Original and photocopy of the invoice. 3. Original and photocopy of the vehicle qualification certificate. 4. Original and photocopy of the compulsory insurance policy. 5. Vehicle tax payment certificate, etc.

What Causes the Noise in the Car Dashboard?

The causes of noise in the car dashboard are as follows: 1. The noise in the car dashboard may be due to prolonged use of the vehicle, leading to aging and loosening of internal components, which results in the noise. 2. Another situation is the occurrence of noise in cold winter conditions when the car is started, which usually disappears after driving for a while. This is a normal phenomenon and can be ignored. Additional information: 1. If the noise is not loud: If the noise from the dashboard is not significant, there is no need for repair. Most dashboard noises are caused by aging internal components, especially in older vehicles. Prolonged jolting can cause slight vibrations or twisting of internal parts, leading to noise. 2. If the noise is loud: If the noise is loud while driving, professional technicians can be consulted to dismantle the dashboard and inspect each component. Loose parts or those prone to friction should be secured. If any parts are deformed or damaged, replacement may be necessary. 3. If the cause of the noise cannot be identified: If the exact cause of the dashboard noise cannot be determined, it might be due to large internal gaps in the dashboard. Padding materials like sponge can be used to fill the gaps and eliminate the noise. Again, in cold winter conditions, noise may appear when the car is started but will disappear after driving for a while, which is normal and can be ignored.

How to Use ETC on Highways?

When using highways, simply insert the ETC card into the sensor. The vehicle can then pass through the dedicated ETC lane normally. The ETC system will read the data, automatically lift the lane barrier, and allow the vehicle to pass smoothly. Precautions for ETC usage: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. If the vehicle in front stops, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters to prevent the system from mistakenly charging for the vehicle ahead, in case its ETC device malfunctions or is absent. The recognized speed for ETC lane passage is 20 km/h. Driving too fast may prevent the system from reading the vehicle's device information, leading to failed transactions. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag falls off or becomes loose, may cause the electronic tag to become invalid. In such cases, take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or the highway service office for inspection. If the issue is not due to human interference, reactivation may be sufficient.

How to Remove Windshield Scratches?

Here are methods for removing scratches from car windshields: 1. Clean the glass: Use a clean cloth to thoroughly clean the glass, ensuring there are no debris or impurities, and let the glass dry in a suitable environment. 2. Wet a microfiber cloth: Under warm running water, take a clean, lint-free cloth (at least not rough material, preferably smooth and non-shedding). Wring the cloth tightly until no excess water drips. (Any debris on the cloth, including dust or lint, can rub against the glass and cause uneven wear or more scratches.) 3. Apply toothpaste to the cloth: Squeeze an appropriate amount of toothpaste onto the cloth according to the size of the scratch, adding more if needed. (It's best to use white non-gel toothpaste, especially those containing baking soda as an ingredient, which are most effective for removing scratches.)

What is a Car Platform

An automobile platform can be understood as an original "template" for vehicles. This template includes fundamental components of a car such as the chassis, body structure, electrical systems, and even production processes. In the early stages of the platform concept, vehicles sharing the same platform indeed had strictly interchangeable chassis components. However, with advancements in automotive technology, the concept of car platforms has evolved. Additional information: 1. Geely BMA Modular Architecture: The BMA platform is a new modular platform independently developed by Geely. Unlike the CMA platform co-developed by Geely & Volvo, which is allocated according to vehicle class, the BMA platform, standing for B-segment Modular Architecture, is designed for A-segment vehicles, suitable for A0 to A+ classes. Currently, several models such as the Geely ICON, Haoyue, Binrui, and Binyue are built on this platform. 2. Toyota TNGA Architecture: The full name of Toyota TNGA is Toyota New Global Architecture. Strictly speaking, TNGA is a comprehensive value platform covering the entire automotive industry chain, including R&D, design, production, and procurement. Its primary function is to optimize and integrate resources within Toyota and its cooperative suppliers across corporate systems, R&D systems, production systems, and parts systems. 3. Volkswagen MQB Platform: The Volkswagen MQB platform, fully known as Modular Querbaukasten, or "Modular Transverse Matrix," is arguably the most important and widely used car platform within the Volkswagen Group. It currently encompasses numerous models under brands such as Volkswagen, Skoda, and Audi.
