Heavy-duty fire trucks have a full load weight of approximately 11.6 tons. Below is relevant information about fire trucks: 1. Requirements for fire truck access lanes: According to national regulations, newly constructed buildings should reserve dedicated fire lanes to ensure unobstructed evacuation routes, emergency exits, and fire truck access. Roads within blocks should accommodate fire truck passage, with the distance between road centerlines preferably not exceeding 160.0m. When a building's street-facing length exceeds 150.0m or its total length exceeds 220.0m, a fire truck lane passing through the building should be provided. When this is genuinely difficult, a circular fire lane should be established. For buildings with enclosed courtyards or atriums where the short side exceeds 24.0m, a fire truck access lane into the courtyard or atrium should preferably be provided. 2. Supplementary regulations: When the gradient between a site's vehicle lane and a city road is significant, a buffer section should be installed without occupying city road space; in exceptionally difficult terrain with steep gradients, road longitudinal gradients should not exceed 11%, with gradient lengths not surpassing 100m, and road surfaces should have anti-slip measures.

What to Do When Your Driver's License Points Are Depleted?

Handling methods when a driver's license accumulates 12 penalty points: 1. For Class A and B licenses: Direct downgrade upon reaching 12 points: For holders of Class A or B licenses, accumulating 12 points within a scoring cycle will result in the vehicle management authority revoking their highest permitted driving category. They must complete downgrade procedures within 30 days. 2. For Class C licenses: Retake the theory test (Subject 1) upon reaching 12 points: If a driver's license is penalized with 12 points (including exactly 12 or more than 12 but less than 24 points), the license will be temporarily suspended. The driver must retake and pass the theory test before being allowed to drive again. Driving during this suspension period is considered unlicensed driving. During the probationary period with 12 points: 1. For Class A and B licenses: Revocation and downgrade: If a driver accumulates 12 points during the probationary period for a Class A or B license, their probationary driving qualification for that category will be revoked. If the revoked qualification is not for the highest permitted category, the highest category will also be revoked. Additionally, for Class A and B license holders, accumulating more than 6 but less than 12 points during the probationary period will extend the probation by one year. 2. For Class C licenses: License revocation: If a Class C license holder accumulates 12 points during the probationary period, their probationary driving qualification will be revoked.

What Causes Severe Car Vibration When Accelerating?

Reasons for car vibration when accelerating: fuel line blockage causing poor fuel supply, air intake system leaks or blockages, damaged ignition coils and spark plugs, excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body, faulty fuel injectors, clogged fuel filter, etc. Below is relevant information: 1. Fuel system issues are generally caused by fuel line blockages leading to poor fuel supply, manifested as engine vibration, unstable idle, or stalling while driving; additionally, fuel pump failure can also cause engine vibration. To diagnose fuel pump issues, disconnect the fuel line and check flow rate and volume. For proper operation, the engine requires sufficient air, adequate fuel, and a well-functioning ignition system. Problems in any of these areas can cause engine vibration. If the intake system has leaks or blockages, acceleration vibration will occur when pressing the accelerator. 2. In the engine ignition system, ignition high-voltage wires rarely fail, so the main issues usually lie with ignition coils and spark plugs, as they are wear-prone components. When spark plugs degrade or inferior-quality spark plugs are used, it can result in weak acceleration or acceleration vibration. 3. The automotive fuel system is extensive with many components, and any abnormal or faulty part can cause engine vibration during acceleration. Examples include excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body, faulty fuel injectors, or a clogged fuel filter. In summary, car body vibration while driving is not a minor issue. Unless it's normal gearshift shock, it should be promptly inspected at a professional repair shop or 4S store.

Transmission fluid: automatic transmission every 40,000-60,000 km, manual transmission every 60,000-80,000 km; 4. Clutch fluid: replace every 40,000-60,000 km; 5. Brake fluid: replace every two years or 40,000 km; 6. Coolant: replace every 20,000 km; 7. Battery fluid: mostly maintenance-free, check during service, no need to top up; 8. Windshield washer fluid: refill when empty, remember to switch to winter-grade antifreeze washer fluid in cold seasons; 9. Air filter: replace every 15,000 km; 10. Oil filter: replace with every engine oil change; 11. Fuel filter: replace every 20,000 km; 12. Cabin air filter: replace every 15,000 km.

How to License a New Car Without a Residence Permit?

If you have already applied for a residence permit but have not yet received it, you can bring your ID card to the department where you applied for the residence permit and request an "Information Registration Form for Floating Population." With this form, you can proceed with vehicle registration and licensing. Below are relevant details: 1. Licensing for Non-Local Residents: Non-local residents who purchase a car in the area need to apply for vehicle registration and licensing at the transportation department, which requires holding a residence permit. This means non-local residents without a residence permit should apply for one in advance to avoid delays in licensing. 2. Timeframe for Obtaining a Residence Permit: Generally, it takes six months to obtain a residence permit. However, some local police stations may issue a receipt for the residence permit before it is officially issued, which can be used for licensing. Note that not all regions allow this method for expedited licensing.

Does Polishing Affect Car Paint?

As long as polishing is done appropriately, it will not cause significant damage to the car paint. Polishing does remove a layer of paint, but if the purpose is to enhance the appearance of the paint surface, this removal does not count as damage. Moreover, this minor loss is negligible in terms of the overall thickness of the paint. Polishing is akin to a facial treatment for car paint, primarily used to remove oxidized paint and various contaminants from the car body. The steps for car polishing are as follows: First, thoroughly clean the car body to remove dust particles and prevent secondary damage to the paint. Next, perform a rough sanding of the body, then select an appropriate polishing machine along with polishing wax to conduct a detailed polish on the sanded surface. Finally, after polishing, use a mirror-finish treatment agent to restore the mirror-like effect of the body, followed by waxing to complete the process. Precautions for polishing: First, always go to a professional auto beauty shop for polishing, as not only is the quality of the polishing wax guaranteed, but professional technicians can also minimize potential damage. The thickness of the polishing wax used depends on the condition of the car paint; a wax layer must be applied to complete the final protection, which better serves the purpose of protecting the car. Maintenance during use after polishing directly determines the longevity of the polishing effect. It is essential to control the speed of the polishing machine, not exceeding the selected speed range, and to maintain consistency in the polishing direction and a certain order. Additionally, change the sponge wheel when switching polishing agents, and avoid mixing sponge wheels.
