The height of a passenger car roof rack should not exceed 4 meters from the ground. If it exceeds this limit, traffic police will impose fines and deduct points. Therefore, before selecting a roof rack, it's important to measure the length and position to avoid exceeding the limit when placing luggage. Additionally, placing bicycles on the roof rack is not permitted. If the passenger car's registration certificate does not include a roof rack, any later installation must first be reported to the vehicle management office and approved before proceeding. Installing a roof rack requires horizontal supports to facilitate luggage placement. After installation, the roof rack will increase the car's weight, leading to higher fuel consumption, and may generate some wind noise during driving.

Can a Mortgaged Car Be Transferred?

Mortgaged cars cannot be transferred. If a car has been mortgaged, it means the ownership rights of the car temporarily do not belong to the owner. Below are relevant details about mortgaged cars: 1. Purchase Considerations: When buying a mortgaged car, it is essential to check the mortgage registration details in the "Motor Vehicle Registration Certificate". If the last mortgage registration has been canceled, it indicates that the car's secured debt has been fulfilled, and it is no longer a mortgaged car, making it eligible for purchase. 2. Locked Status: A mortgaged car will not be locked as long as repayments are made on time. However, the car cannot be sold before the loan is fully repaid. If payments are overdue later, the car may also be locked. The "locked" status of a vehicle means it cannot be transferred or sold.

What is the function of the universal transmission device?

The universal transmission device serves to connect the transmission output shaft and the main reducer input shaft that are not aligned in a straight line, ensuring reliable power transmission even when the angle and distance between the two shafts frequently change. Universal transmission devices can be divided into two types: 1. Closed universal transmission device: It uses a single universal joint, with the drive shaft enclosed in a sleeve.
