What is the correct way to operate the clutch, accelerator, and brake?

While driving, the right foot needs to switch between controlling the accelerator and brake pedals. The accelerator pedal is used for starting and accelerating, while the brake pedal is used for stopping and decelerating. During operation, the heel remains on the ground, and the heel position should not be moved when switching. While driving, when not operating the accelerator or brake, the right foot should always rest on the brake pedal, ready for braking. Gear shifting techniques are as follows: 1. Before shifting, release the accelerator and press the clutch: Almost simultaneously release the accelerator pedal and press the clutch pedal before shifting. The action should be quick. Note: When releasing the accelerator pedal, only the ball of the foot should slightly lift off the pedal, and the heel should not move or retract. 2. After shifting, release the clutch and press the accelerator: After shifting gears, slowly release the clutch pedal. When reaching the semi-engaged point, gradually press the accelerator. After the left foot fully releases the clutch pedal, place it on the left rest area. Note: The left foot is generally suspended when releasing the clutch pedal.

Can the Dash Cam Work When the Car is Turned Off?

Dash cams can work when the car is turned off, provided that the device has a parking monitoring (motion detection) function. The parking monitoring feature requires the dash cam to have a built-in battery or to be connected to the ACC fuse for power supply. After the vehicle is turned off, the dash cam automatically enters parking monitoring mode, where its sensors continuously monitor the vehicle's condition. If any abnormality or vibration is detected, it will automatically record the monitoring video and save it separately. Compared to constant power connection, dash cams with parking monitoring connected to the ACC fuse are more energy-efficient and have less impact on the car battery. However, if the vehicle is left unused for several consecutive days, this may still lead to battery drain and difficulty starting the car.

Should the Uphill or Downhill Vehicle Yield?

On normal road slopes during oncoming traffic, the downhill vehicle yields to the uphill vehicle; on icy or snowy road slopes, the uphill vehicle yields to the downhill vehicle. The downhill vehicle yielding to the uphill vehicle is primarily for safety considerations—if the downhill vehicle cannot brake in time, it may collide with the uphill vehicle. Thus, yielding to the uphill vehicle ensures greater safety for the downhill vehicle, as even if it fails to brake, it won't hit another car. When both uphill and downhill vehicles are at opposite ends of the slope, allowing the downhill vehicle to proceed first can lead to higher speeds and increased danger. Conversely, if the uphill vehicle goes first, any potential accidents would result in less severe consequences compared to the downhill vehicle. When both vehicles are in the middle of the slope, for manual transmission vehicles, making the uphill vehicle yield to the downhill vehicle increases the risk of stalling and rolling backward, which can lead to traffic accidents.

What to Do If Physical Examination Information Is Not Obtained for License Renewal Upon Expiration?

Solution for not obtaining physical examination information when renewing the license upon expiration: First, go to a designated hospital (physical examination hospital) for a physical examination, and the hospital must upload the physical examination information before applying for this service. Drivers undergoing the physical examination must present their ID and driver's license (both original and duplicate), carefully and truthfully fill out the driver's review and license renewal application form, and attach a recent one-inch bareheaded photo. Before applying for pre-acceptance, users should prepare the motor vehicle driver's physical condition certificate from the hospital and the original motor vehicle driver's license materials as required. Once a user applies for license renewal upon expiration online, if the user refuses to sign for receipt or fails to pick up the license at the designated outlet within one month, the system will automatically add the user to the internet blacklist, prohibiting the user from handling online motor vehicle and driver's license-related services.

Can the photo on a driver's license be changed?

The photo on a driver's license cannot be changed directly, as doing so would render it a counterfeit document. However, you can replace the photo by reporting the loss of your driver's license to the vehicle management office and then applying for a replacement with the required documents and a new photo. According to relevant regulations, if a motor vehicle driver's license is lost, the driver must apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued or at another authorized office. When applying, you need to fill out an application form and submit the following documents and proofs: 1. The driver's identity proof; 2. A written statement declaring the loss of the driver's license; 3. The original ID card and a passport-style photo. If the application meets the requirements, the vehicle management office should issue a replacement driver's license within one day. After receiving the new license, the original one becomes invalid and must not be used anymore.

Can someone else's driver's license be used for point deduction?

Driver's license points can be deducted using someone else's license, but it's important to note that a vehicle can only use up to three different driver's licenses to clear violation points within a year. Additionally, the person whose license is being used must personally handle the point deduction process with their own driver's license. The scoring cycle of a driver's license is calculated from the date of issuance and resets after one year. Regardless of how many points are deducted within a year, as long as the total does not reach 12 points, the score will automatically reset to 12 points the following year. For point deduction handling: If the points deducted exceed 12 or more, the traffic police will confiscate the driver's license when handling the violation. The offender must attend a seven-day traffic regulation knowledge course at a designated location. They must also take the subject one exam, similar to the initial driver's license test. Upon passing the exam, a test score certificate will be issued, and the driver's license can then be retrieved with the points cleared.

What is the Scrapping Age Limit for Passenger Cars?

There is no age limit for scrapping passenger cars, but the mileage limit for scrapping is set at 600,000 kilometers. Since May 1, 2013, the new regulations on scrapping old vehicles have been implemented, which abolished the scrapping age limit for private cars and introduced a mandatory scrapping policy for vehicles exceeding 600,000 kilometers. According to the regulations, small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles, large non-operational cars, and wheeled special-purpose machinery vehicles have no usage age limit. The current annual inspection regulations for private cars are as follows: within the first 6 years, a new car must be stamped by the inspection agency every two years; from 7 to 15 years, it must be inspected once a year; after 15 years, it must be inspected twice a year. If a vehicle fails to undergo the annual inspection or fails the inspection, it will be mandatorily scrapped.
