The correct method for measuring engine oil is: When checking the oil level, pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, then pull it out again to check the oil level. If the oil level is between the two marks on the dipstick, it indicates the oil level is normal. Precautions for checking engine oil: 1. Generally, wait for about 15 minutes after turning off the engine to allow the oil to stabilize before checking; 2. When checking the oil level, ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface to maintain an accurate reading; 3. The first time you pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert it, and then pull it out again to check the oil level to ensure an accurate and clear reading. Engine oil, also known as motor oil or engine lubricant, is a substance enhanced with additives in a base oil, primarily containing anti-wear additives, detergents, dispersants, and multi-grade viscosity index improvers.

Is It Necessary to Purchase a Driving and Riding Safety Insurance?

If you frequently ride in others' cars besides driving your own, it would be better to purchase a driving and riding insurance. Introduction to Driving and Riding Insurance: Driving and riding insurance is an accidental insurance. Regardless of who is at fault in an accident or which vehicle is involved, as long as you have purchased the driving and riding insurance, you can receive compensation without affecting the car insurance payout. Therefore, driving and riding insurance actually expands the coverage and claim scope as a supplementary insurance to car insurance. Benefits of Driving and Riding Insurance: Driving and riding insurance follows the person, not the vehicle. The insured can receive coverage whether they are driving, riding in a car, or driving other vehicles. It also provides coverage when traveling by train, ship, or airplane. When the policyholder drives a private car, family members can be jointly insured to receive exclusive coverage.

Will there be any consequences if I pass through the intersection the moment the traffic light turns from yellow to red?

Passing through the intersection the moment the traffic light turns from yellow to red is considered running a red light. Here are the relevant details: Indications of motor vehicle and non-motor vehicle traffic signals: When the green light is on, vehicles are permitted to proceed, but turning vehicles must not obstruct the passage of straight-moving vehicles or pedestrians; when the yellow light is on, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line may continue to proceed; when the red light is on, vehicles are prohibited from proceeding. Important notes: Vehicles should stop when the yellow light is on, and failing to do so constitutes a traffic violation. If any part of the vehicle has crossed the stop line when the yellow light comes on, the vehicle may continue through the intersection. If the vehicle has not crossed the stop line, it should brake and stop, even if it means stopping beyond the crosswalk—as long as the vehicle stops, no penalty will be imposed.
