Beihu car refers to a vehicle that cannot be transferred to a new owner. A Beihu car is completely normal in terms of its condition, with all possible documentation complete, and its annual inspection and insurance up to date, but it simply cannot be transferred. The main reasons why a vehicle is not transferred after a transaction are as follows: 1. The license plate's registered location is too far away, making the transfer cost too high; 2. Debt-settled vehicles, where the car may have been used to settle debts multiple times without clear records; 3. The owner has passed away, and the vehicle has not been deregistered; 4. In areas with purchase restrictions, the license plate and car are transferred together; 5. Out-of-town vehicles cannot be registered locally due to migration restrictions; 6. Some scammers may also sell commercial vehicles converted to non-commercial use as Beihu cars at low prices.

How many points will be deducted for not driving or parking as required?

Driving in the wrong lane will result in a deduction of 3 points and corresponding fines. There are two specific situations for not parking as required: 1. Situation one: For the illegal act of temporarily parking in a way that affects the passage of other vehicles and pedestrians (i.e., when there is a driver in the car), a fine may be imposed, or a warning may be given (fines are imposed if caught by electronic monitoring). 2. Situation two: For the illegal act of parking in a way that affects the passage of other vehicles and pedestrians (i.e., when there is no driver in the car), corresponding fines will be imposed, and points may be deducted depending on the specific circumstances.

How should passengers ensure safety when exiting the vehicle?

It is necessary to observe the side and rear conditions first, then open the door slowly to ensure safety. The following is an introduction to road traffic signs: 1. White dashed and solid lines: Road traffic markings are mostly white. White dashed lines separate lanes traveling in the same direction, allowing for lane changes across the line, while white solid lines prohibit crossing and often appear as extensions of white dashed lines before intersections or to separate roadside parking areas. 2. Yellow dashed lines: Yellow dashed lines also distinguish lanes traveling in different directions, usually set on narrower roads. Whether single or double yellow lines, as long as they are dashed, they allow crossing for overtaking or U-turns, provided safety is ensured. 3. Deceleration warning lines: These markings or signs, often found at intersections or near school entrances, remind drivers to slow down and come in various styles, not just one.

Does Car Window Tinting Affect the Glass?

Car window tinting generally does not affect the glass. However, low-quality films or improper installation can potentially cause negative effects. These risks can be completely avoided if car owners carefully choose branded films and authorized installation shops. High-quality car films are mostly made of special polyester film as the base material, which has strong toughness and can effectively enhance the strength and rigidity of the car glass. They also use special pressure-sensitive adhesive for easy application and to prevent glass damage. Car window films are different from other glass window films. They not only require the film material itself to have considerable toughness, high light transmittance, UV blocking rate, heat insulation rate, and explosion-proof performance, but also demand high adhesive particle fineness, uniform coating, and viscosity. Additionally, they must have anti-wear and anti-scratch functions. Currently, there are many low-quality films on the market, mostly colored using adhesive coloring methods. These films are not sun-resistant and will fade or delaminate after a short period of use. Some even lack heat insulation entirely, with poor transparency that affects the driver's visibility and reduces driving safety. The main functions of car window tinting include: Heat insulation and cooling. The film can reduce the intensity of sunlight, thereby providing heat insulation and keeping the car interior cool. High-quality car explosion-proof films can achieve a heat insulation rate of 50%~70%, effectively reducing the load on the car air conditioning and saving fuel. Preventing shattering. In the event of an accident, explosion-proof car films can prevent the glass from shattering and scattering, avoiding injuries to the driver and passengers caused by glass fragments and improving car safety. Skin protection. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin damage and lead to skin diseases. High-quality car films have UV-blocking functions, effectively protecting the skin. Interior protection. Infrared rays in sunlight can heat up interior decorations such as seat cushions and dashboards. Long-term exposure to infrared rays can cause the interior to age and fade. Tinted windows can protect the interior. One-way visibility. The one-way visibility feature of car films can block outside views, enhancing the privacy of the car occupants.

Will Turning the Steering Wheel Hard Without Ignition Cause Damage?

Turning the steering wheel hard without ignition can cause slight wear and damage to the vehicle. It will feel heavier because the power steering pump is not activated. Here are some related details: 1. Steering Wheel: This new design emerged to introduce a gear system between the driver and the wheels, offering flexible operation and effectively isolating strong vibrations from the road. 2. Precautions When Turning the Steering Wheel: While driving, avoid prolonged one-handed operation unless necessary, and do not rest your hand on the gear shift or window frame for long periods. When turning the steering wheel, avoid excessive force or sudden movements, and do not turn the steering wheel when the vehicle is stationary.

Can You Change Lanes in a Tidal Flow Lane?

Double yellow dashed tidal flow lanes cannot be changed at will. The double yellow dashed lines of tidal flow lanes are not the same as the yellow dashed lines on ordinary roads; they are lane division markings used to distinguish, separate, and indicate tidal flow lanes. The double yellow dashed lines on both sides of tidal flow lanes primarily serve to mark and indicate the lanes. When driving in a tidal flow lane, pay attention to the following points to avoid traffic violations: Check the signs—there will be signs at the entrance of tidal flow lanes. Before entering, make sure to read the instructions on the signs carefully to avoid violations. Observe the traffic lights—tidal flow lanes have dedicated traffic lights, which are in the same row as the main road traffic lights but indicate different routes. You can only proceed when the traffic light turns green; driving is prohibited when other signals are lit, so drivers must be cautious to avoid violations. Note the operating hours—most tidal flow lanes have specified opening times, such as during morning rush hours (7:00 AM–9:00 AM) or evening rush hours (6:00 PM–8:00 PM). The direction of traffic in tidal flow lanes is usually opposite, and driving into them outside the designated hours is not allowed. No U-turns—if drivers do not follow the designated direction, they may be captured by cameras and fined 100 yuan with 3 penalty points. Specifications and origins of tidal flow lanes: Tidal flow lanes are mainly set up on roads with obvious tidal traffic phenomena, meaning there are specific peak traffic hours. During peak hours, there is a significant difference in traffic flow between directions—one direction has heavy traffic, while the opposite lane has lighter traffic. To alleviate congestion on the busier side, tidal flow lanes are set up in the opposite lane during peak hours, allowing vehicles to use the opposite lane. Implementation methods: Traffic police can manually adjust lane directions using remote controls for variable lane signs based on real-time road conditions. Traffic monitoring centers can observe road conditions and remotely control signage displays. For intersections with networked signal systems, automatic identification and adjustment can be performed.
