700-16 tires have a diameter of 633 millimeters, though this may vary slightly depending on the tire brand. As one of the most important components of a vehicle, car tires are typically mounted on metal rims to support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, maintain contact with the road surface, and ensure driving performance. The key functions of tires are as follows: 1. Medium for force transmission between vehicle and road: Tires transmit driving force, braking force, steering force, etc., enabling operations like acceleration, braking, and steering. 2. Supporting vehicle load: The weight of the vehicle causes the tire to compress until the average ground contact pressure balances with the internal inflation pressure. 3. Absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving: Tires prevent excessive vibrations that could damage vehicle components prematurely. They also adapt to high-speed driving conditions, reduce noise, and ensure safety, comfort, handling stability, and fuel efficiency.

What to Do When the Ford Escort Power Window Works Intermittently?

Solutions for intermittent operation of the Ford Escort power window: 1. Clean the seals: Aging, excessive dirt, or deformation of the window rubber strips (including inner pressure strips) can create resistance during window movement. Spraying dashboard wax or applying talcum powder (for lubrication) on the window seals usually yields good results. 2. Clean the window lift tracks: Dirty window lift tracks. This is also a lubrication issue—cleaning the tracks and applying grease can resolve the malfunction. 3. Replace the window regulator: Faulty window regulator.

Removing seats to transport goods: According to Article 90 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," "a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan may be imposed."

How to Adjust Rearview Mirrors to the Correct Position?

Here are the detailed instructions for adjusting rearview mirror positions: 1. Adjust the rearview mirror button: You can use the electric buttons inside the car, which are usually located on the left side of the steering wheel, to adjust the left and right rearview mirrors. 2. Adjust the center rearview mirror: Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts to the right ear of the image in the mirror. For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center of the mirror. The key points for adjusting the center rearview mirror are to place it horizontally in the middle and position the ear on the left. Place the distant horizon on the center line of the center rearview mirror, then move it left or right so that the image of the right ear is just at the left edge of the mirror. 3. Adjust the left rearview mirror: For the up and down positions, place the distant horizon in the center. For the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. The key points for adjusting the left rearview mirror are to place the horizon on the center line of the mirror and adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's image. 4. Adjust the right rearview mirror: Since the driver's seat is on the left, it is not easy for the driver to grasp the situation on the right side of the car. In addition, sometimes parking on the roadside requires more ground area to be visible in the right rearview mirror, which should occupy about 2/3 of the mirror's area for the up and down positions. As for the left and right positions, adjust so that the car body occupies 1/4 of the mirror's area. The key points for adjusting the right rearview mirror are to place the horizon at the 2/3 position of the mirror and adjust the edge of the car body to occupy 1/4 of the mirror's image.

Is the Compulsory Traffic Insurance Label Still Required in Jiangsu?

In Jiangsu Province, where electronic insurance policies have not been implemented, it is still necessary to display the compulsory traffic insurance label on vehicles. Since the 2020 auto insurance reform, the electronic policy for compulsory traffic insurance has been promoted nationwide, but its implementation takes time. Currently, only some regions have truly adopted it. In areas where electronic policies are in effect, the compulsory traffic insurance label no longer needs to be displayed. When encountering traffic police, only the electronic policy needs to be presented. However, in regions where the electronic policy has not yet been implemented, the compulsory traffic insurance label must still be displayed; otherwise, penalties may apply. According to Article 95 of the Road Traffic Safety Law: If a motor vehicle driven on the road does not display the inspection qualification label or insurance label, or if the driver fails to carry the vehicle license or driver's license, the traffic management department of the public security authority shall detain the vehicle, notify the party to provide the corresponding license, label, or complete the necessary procedures, and may impose penalties in accordance with Article 90 (a warning or a fine ranging from 20 to 200 yuan). As of 2022, the following provinces and cities have abolished the paper label for compulsory traffic insurance: Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, Shanxi, Guangdong, Henan, Hubei, Hunan, Jiangxi, Guizhou, Guangxi, Yunnan, Shaanxi, Hebei, Sichuan, and Gansu. Compulsory Traffic Insurance for Vehicles: The full name of compulsory traffic insurance is "Compulsory Liability Insurance for Motor Vehicle Traffic Accidents." It is a mandatory liability insurance where the insurance company compensates for personal injuries, deaths, and property losses (excluding vehicle occupants and the insured) caused by road traffic accidents involving the insured vehicle, within the liability limits. The premium is based on the nationally unified standard rates. However, the price of compulsory traffic insurance varies depending on the vehicle type, primarily influenced by the number of seats. Compared to the over 20 exemption clauses in commercial third-party liability insurance, compulsory traffic insurance covers a much broader range, including losses caused intentionally by the victim, the insured's own property losses, related arbitration and litigation costs, and some indirect losses due to accidents. Moreover, regardless of whether the insured vehicle is at fault in an accident, compulsory traffic insurance will provide compensation within the liability limits, with no deductible or exemption. Introduction to Electronic Policies: An electronic policy refers to a digital insurance policy issued by an insurance company using digital signature software compliant with the PKI system and an enterprise digital certificate, bearing the electronic signature of the insurance company. An insurance policy, abbreviated as a policy, is the official written proof of the insurance contract between the insurer and the insured. The policy must fully record the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of both parties. The content of the policy serves as the basis for both parties to fulfill the contract. The policy is proof of the establishment of the insurance contract. Advantages of Electronic Policies: Saves paper resources, eliminating the need to print insurance proof labels; Time-saving and convenient, unrestricted by time or location, with information readily available online anytime, fast and easy; Allows for reissuance or resending, eliminating concerns about loss. If a paper version is needed offline, it can be printed or mailed; Facilitates management, as electronic standardization makes it easier for insurance companies and traffic police departments to manage vehicle insurance information.

What is the Difference Between Gray Water Tank and Black Water Tank?

Gray water tank stores water from sinks and dishwashing basins; black water tank holds toilet waste. Below is an extended introduction: 1. Special cases: Some RVs combine black and gray water tanks, with two discharge methods - direct and indirect. Direct discharge means driving to an uninhabited area and pulling a lever to release waste; indirect discharge involves removing a small container for disposal. 2. Safety considerations: When the RV is not in use, remember to turn off the water pump switch. Without water in the fresh water tank, the pump may run dry and get damaged. Before connecting external hoses to campground faucets, fill the hose with water first to reduce air intake in the water supply system.
