Exceeding the speed limit by 10% is calculated by the formula: (Actual speed - Speed limit) / Speed limit = 10%. If the speed limit is 120 km/h, then an actual speed of 132 km/h means exceeding the speed limit by 10%. Here is the relevant information: 1. Penalty for speeding: According to the law, if a motor vehicle exceeds the speed limit by more than 10%, the traffic management department of the public security organ will issue a verbal warning; for ordinary vehicles on highways exceeding the speed limit by more than 10% but less than 20%, a fine will be imposed, and 3 points will be deducted. 2. Regulations: Article 78 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" states: Highways shall indicate the driving speed of lanes, with the maximum speed not exceeding 120 km/h and the minimum speed not less than 60 km/h. On highways, the maximum speed of small passenger cars shall not exceed 120 km/h, other motor vehicles shall not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles shall not exceed 80 km/h.

I remember encountering a similar issue while driving once, needing to calculate what 120 mph plus 10% over the speed limit would be. It's simply 120 multiplied by 1.1, equaling 132 kilometers per hour. Sounds straightforward, right? But did you know that exceeding the speed limit by just this little bit carries significant risks? I once accidentally drove close to 130 on the highway, and the car felt noticeably shaky with reduced tire grip, especially making it more prone to skidding in rainy conditions. Nowadays, I make an effort to stay within the speed limit, using cruise control to maintain speed and avoid tickets. If you frequently drive on highways, I recommend regularly checking your speedometer's accuracy to prevent small mistakes from leading to major accidents. In short, the speed is 132 mph, but don’t follow my old reckless ways—safety always comes first.

Should the car engine oil dipstick be checked when the engine is cold or hot?

Car engine oil dipstick should be checked when the engine is cold. Checking when cold prevents oil splashing and avoids burns. When measuring in a hot state, since some oil has not yet settled back, the measured oil level will be slightly lower. When the engine is hot, oil is pumped by the oil pump to parts such as the engine transmission, causing the oil level in the oil tank to drop. The engine oil dipstick is a commonly used control ruler for checking the lubricating oil reservoir level. Since the dipstick insertion hole has a curved path, the dipstick must be able to rebound and restore its shape when pulled out after insertion.

Can I enter the highway in advance during the October 1st toll-free period?

You can enter the highway in advance during the October 1st toll-free period. The toll-free policy is based on the time when the small passenger vehicle exits the toll station. As long as you exit the highway after 00:00 on October 1st, you won't need to pay the toll. The toll-free period is determined by the time the vehicle leaves the highway exit toll lane. This means that if you enter the highway during the toll period and exit during the toll-free period, you won't be charged. Conversely, if you enter during the toll-free period and exit during the toll period, you will be charged. For those traveling across provinces, please note that if you pass the provincial boundary toll station before 00:00 on the 1st, you will be charged. Therefore, it is recommended to plan your time carefully and wait until 00:00 to pass the toll station for a free journey.

Do I need to be present for damage assessment at a 4S shop?

4S shops do not require your presence for damage assessment, but it's better to go with your vehicle as assessing auto insurance losses is a crucial part of the claims process. Although car owners are not responsible for determining insurance losses, this doesn't mean they shouldn't understand the damage assessment procedure. The vehicle damage assessment process: 1. File a claim; 2. Damage assessment; 3. Penalty ruling; 4. Take the vehicle to a 4S shop for repairs; 5. After the insurance company's appraiser determines the loss, you must obtain the insurer's approved repair items and content; 6. When picking up the vehicle, request the repair list and invoice from the 4S shop, and verify if the list matches actual repairs; 7. Ensure the assessment matches the 4S shop's quote; 8. File an insurance claim.

How much speeding is allowed in highway section speed measurement?

Highway section speed measurement allows speeding below 10% of the speed limit. Speeding below 10% will only result in a warning without penalty. In section speed measurement areas, it's not just about calculating average speed; there are usually mobile speed measurement points or even fixed speed measurement points assisting. If a driver accidentally exceeds 10% of the speed limit, they will face fines and demerit points. The section speed measurement system establishes a monitoring and capture system by setting up cameras at road checkpoints, conducting real-time monitoring and capturing of vehicles passing through the monitored area to obtain information such as vehicle speed, traffic flow, license plate number, color, approximate size, and driver characteristics. This information is transmitted via the network to the public security traffic command center and the traffic control sub-center's database for data storage, query, comparison, and other processing to enable centralized and effective management. It provides effective technical support for public security departments to combat various illegal activities such as speeding, hit-and-run, and suspicious vehicles.
