Driving without carrying your motor vehicle driver's license is considered unlicensed driving. According to Article 19 of the Road Traffic Safety Law and related legal provisions, driving without a driver's license and vehicle license is a serious traffic violation, classified as 'driving without qualification,' i.e., 'unlicensed driving.' The penalties for not carrying a driver's license are as follows: Regardless of whether the driver commits any other violations while driving, they are not allowed to continue driving, and the traffic management department of the public security authority shall impound the motor vehicle and require the driver to provide the driver's license. The subsequent actions depend on the driver's ability to provide the license: 1. If the driver provides the license and had no other violations while driving, they will receive a warning or a fine, and the vehicle will be promptly returned. 2. If the driver provides the license but committed other violations while driving, they will be penalized for both the violations and not carrying the license, and the vehicle will be promptly returned. 3. If the driver fails to provide the license, they will be penalized for unlicensed driving, which may include a fine and up to 15 days of detention by the traffic management department of the public security authority.

What does it mean when the yellow light keeps flashing?

A continuously flashing yellow light indicates that the intersection is prone to traffic accidents, reminding drivers to pay attention and ensure safety before proceeding. Here is some extended information about flashing yellow lights: 1. Slow down and proceed with caution: The continuously flashing yellow light alerts motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians to pass safely. This type of signal is often installed at intersections with low traffic or during off-peak hours such as nighttime. When encountering such a yellow light, pedestrians and vehicles should slow down and proceed with caution. 2. Not controlled by other traffic signals: A flashing yellow light alone means that the intersection is not controlled by traffic lights, and passing vehicles need to observe the surrounding situation and decide whether to stop. Many sparsely populated intersections operate this way at night to reduce unnecessary waiting time at red lights.

How Often Should a Motorcycle Oil Filter Be Replaced?

Motorcycle oil filters are typically replaced every 4,000 to 6,000 kilometers. The function of the engine oil filter is to filter the engine oil. Reasons for regular replacement: If the oil filter is not replaced for a long time, the lubrication of the cylinder head and some special parts will not meet basic requirements, which will accelerate engine wear. This is because a dirty oil filter significantly reduces the flow performance of the lubricating oil, thereby limiting the flow of the engine oil pump. Over time, excessive wear will occur in the internal parts of the engine. Steps to replace a motorcycle oil filter: Loosen the oil drain screw at the bottom of the motorcycle; use a basin to catch the drained oil; remove the cover of the motorcycle oil filter; take out the old oil filter; install the new oil filter in its original position. Notes on motorcycle oil filters: Basically, the oil filter should be replaced every time the oil is changed, and used oil filters should not be reused. When purchasing oil and oil filters, always buy from official channels and choose genuine products from well-known brands.

What does car eco represent?

eco represents the economic mode among driving modes. Nowadays, cars have many driving modes, including "off-road mode", "sport mode", and "snow mode". The name eco is derived from the combination of Ecology (environmental protection), Conservation (energy saving), and Optimization (power). It is further divided into active and non-active eco modes. The difference lies in that the active mode has a dedicated button, while the non-active mode does not have a dedicated button and only serves as a reminder or guide. Additional information: The eco mode usually becomes ineffective under the following circumstances: 1. When the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilometers per hour, considering the speed factor, the eco mode automatically becomes ineffective. 2. When idling in park or in N/P gear, or in manual mode, the eco mode may also become ineffective. 3. When high torque output is required, such as when climbing a slope, the engine computer will prioritize ensuring sufficient power to drive the vehicle, and the eco mode will not work either.

Can You Get a Driver's License with One Blind Eye?

You can get a driver's license even if one eye is blind. Before the policy was revised, individuals with monocular vision were not allowed to obtain a driver's license, but after the policy change, they became eligible. The revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" in 2016 clearly states: For those with monocular vision impairment, if the better eye (the eye with better vision) achieves a naked or corrected visual acuity of 5.0 or above on the logarithmic visual acuity chart, and the horizontal visual field reaches 150 degrees, they can apply for a driver's license. (Note: People with red-green color blindness are still not allowed to obtain a driver's license.) Additional information: 1. For individuals with monocular vision, the driver's license medical examination is not much different from that of normal people, except for some special requirements regarding vision, so the process is not particularly troublesome. 2. There is an additional special test item for individuals with monocular vision during the vision examination: the horizontal visual field test. This ensures that drivers with monocular vision can clearly see straight ahead and effectively avoid driving risks from the left and right sides.
