Road narrowing and bridge deck narrowing differ in their scope and nature. Differences in scope: The road narrowing sign is placed at an appropriate position before a narrow road and is divided into two-side narrowing, right-side narrowing, and left-side narrowing. Bridge deck narrowing refers to the narrowing of both sides of the carriageway, mainly indicating a symmetrical narrowing along the road centerline; the right and left sides represent unilateral narrowing. These signs are used to warn drivers to be aware of the narrowing carriageway or road ahead and to slow down and yield when encountering oncoming vehicles. Differences in nature: Two-side narrowing is a traffic safety sign used to warn drivers that the carriageway or road ahead is beginning to narrow on both sides, requiring them to slow down and yield when encountering oncoming vehicles. Width narrowing refers to a traffic safety sign placed at an appropriate position before a narrow bridge where the bridge deck width is less than the road width and the bridge width is less than 6 meters.

Vehicle inspection is not available on Saturdays and Sundays. Vehicle inspection stations and vehicle management offices are closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and statutory holidays, with regular inspections only conducted from Monday to Friday. Inspection process: 1. Bring your driver's license, ID card, and the current valid compulsory traffic insurance policy; 2. Drive the vehicle to the vehicle management office or motor vehicle inspection station for inspection; 3. Fill out the annual vehicle inspection application form at the vehicle management office, then submit the form and other materials to the staff and pay the inspection fee; 4. After payment, proceed outside where the staff will conduct an exterior inspection of the vehicle. Prepare a fire extinguisher and warning triangle; 5. After the exterior inspection, immediately proceed to the online inspection. Once the online inspection is completed, return to the hall and collect the inspection pass form at the designated window; 6. Take the pass form to the designated window to collect the annual inspection sticker and the environmental inspection pass sticker, completing the inspection process.

What to Do When Heavy Rain Obstructs Road Visibility?

When driving a motor vehicle in heavy rain where windshield wipers fail to provide sufficient visibility, it is essential to safely pull over at a secure location, activate the hazard warning lights, and wait until the rain subsides or stops before resuming the journey. Key precautions for highway driving are as follows: 1. Safety Inspection: Check for potential hazards before setting off. Conduct a thorough vehicle inspection to ensure no safety risks exist prior to highway driving. 2. Seatbelt Usage: Always fasten seatbelts for all occupants, including those in the front and rear seats, and avoid placing loose objects in the vehicle. 3. Maintain Lane Discipline: Avoid frequent lane changes on highways, alternating between passing lanes and travel lanes. Never make sudden unannounced decelerations or stops in travel lanes. While driving, refrain from traveling side by side with other vehicles, prolonged use of the passing lane, or attempting to overtake from the emergency stopping lane. Additionally, prepare for lane changes well in advance when exiting the highway to avoid missing the intended off-ramp.

How Long Does It Take for Highway Violations to Be Recorded?

There is a certain process and time required from the occurrence of a violation being captured to its confirmation and posting on the traffic violation processing platform (traffic police violation platform), usually taking 3-5 days. Not all violations can be confirmed and uploaded immediately. Additional information: 1. Scoring Cycle: The scoring cycle is one year, with a total of 12 points, calculated cumulatively from the date the motor vehicle driver first obtains the motor vehicle driving license. If the cumulative points do not reach 12 by the end of a scoring cycle, the points for that cycle will be cleared and not carried over to the next scoring cycle. 2. Reaching 12 Points: If a driver accumulates 12 points, their original and duplicate driving licenses will be retained. After passing the traffic regulations and related knowledge test and road driving test, the licenses will be returned promptly, and the original points will be cleared. If the test is failed, a retake can be applied for. However, if the driver is also subject to a suspension of the motor vehicle driving license, the licenses will be returned only after the suspension period ends.

What to Do When the Tire Pressure Light Comes On in the Cavalier?

Cavalier has a tire pressure reset switch located on the side of the gear lever. With the ignition switch turned on, pressing this switch button can eliminate the tire pressure monitoring indicator. Below are the specific details about tire pressure monitoring: 1. The tire pressure monitoring system utilizes the sensing function of ABS to compare the rotation counts of the tires. Insufficient tire pressure shortens the tire's circumference, resulting in different rotation counts compared to other tires during driving. 2. The tire pressure monitoring system alerts based on speed comparisons from wheel speed sensors. Tire pressure can be checked using a pressure gauge. During driving, the tire pressure display monitors the inflation pressure of the tires. If the inflation pressure in a tire is significantly lower than others, the system will issue an alert. When the internal pressure of a tire decreases, the working radius of the wheel changes accordingly, thus altering the wheel's rotation speed. 3. To obtain accurate information about tire faults, the system requires the tires to have appropriate initial pressure. Initialization must be performed again after each correction of tire inflation pressure, replacement of tires or wheels, and when towing a car or after towing in trailer driving mode.

What Does 15 Liters per 100 Kilometers Fuel Consumption Mean?

15 liters per 100 kilometers means consuming 15 liters of fuel to travel 100 kilometers. The fuel cost depends on local gasoline prices. If a vehicle's fuel consumption is excessively high, showing 9 liters per 100 kilometers on paper but actually consuming 15 liters per 100 kilometers, and if the vehicle has traveled over 30,000 kilometers, it might be due to excessive engine carbon buildup causing higher fuel consumption. It is recommended to check if the vehicle needs carbon deposit cleaning maintenance. Factors affecting fuel consumption are as follows: 1. Rough roads increase fuel consumption: Driving on congested or uneven roads for extended periods in low gears will inevitably increase fuel consumption. 2. Using the trunk as storage increases fuel consumption: Loading the trunk with unnecessary items increases the vehicle's weight, which directly correlates with fuel consumption. Reducing vehicle weight by 10% can lower fuel consumption by several percentage points. 3. Incorrect driving habits can double or triple fuel consumption: Poor driving habits have the most significant impact on fuel consumption, especially in heavy traffic, at red lights, or during lane changes, where rapid acceleration and hard braking are common issues.
