Below is the process for license plate registration after picking up the car: 1. Obtain the vehicle qualification certificate. The vehicle qualification certificate is very important as the vehicle must be registered. Currently, some car 4S stores delay providing the vehicle qualification certificate, which can postpone the registration process. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the vehicle qualification certificate as soon as possible by communicating more with the 4S store and being firm in your approach; otherwise, the 4S store may delay providing it for several days. 2. Keep the triplicate car purchase invoice. After purchasing the car, the 4S store will issue a triplicate car purchase invoice, which must be kept properly as it will be used in subsequent registration processes. The invoice consists of red, yellow, and blue copies, with the red and yellow copies usually submitted and the yellow copy retained by the buyer. 3. Pay the vehicle purchase tax and obtain the original and duplicate tax certificates. After purchasing the vehicle, it is necessary to pay the vehicle purchase tax as soon as possible, usually at the nearest vehicle management office. After successfully paying the vehicle purchase tax, the original and duplicate tax certificates will be issued, which should be kept safely. 4. Prepare various documents in advance. Prepare the original ID card and copies (make several copies for backup). Non-local residents need to provide the original and copies of the temporary residence permit. 5. Choose the vehicle license plate number. Once all procedures are complete, you can go to the vehicle management office to register and apply for a license plate. First, a specialized traffic police officer will inspect the vehicle, mainly checking the vehicle identification code, vehicle appearance, and the vehicle's warning triangle plate, which should be prepared in advance. 6. Pay the fee and wait to receive the license plate. After the vehicle inspection, you can go to the vehicle management office hall to select a license plate number. Generally, there are two options: self-selection or random selection, and you can choose either method.

What does the letter 'sz' on the license plate represent?

The letter 'sz' on the license plate represents the Northern Theater Command of the People's Liberation Army. Military vehicles use a license plate format like XY12345, where the first letter represents the region or type. For example, 'G' stands for Guangdong, and 'K' stands for the Air Force. The second letter represents different departments, such as 'A' for the headquarters. Military vehicle license plates are the identification for military vehicles of the People's Liberation Army (including the Armed Police Force). They are issued by the military transportation department after reviewing, inspecting, and registering the vehicles. These plates carry a unique registration code and serve as proof of the special privileges granted to military vehicles by the state. Starting from April 1, 2013, and officially implemented on May 1, the '2012-style' military license plates were issued. These plates cover all vehicles listed in the equipment inventory, logistical support vehicles, vehicles used for daily service support within the military unit's quota, specialized vehicles approved by headquarters or higher-level units, and vehicles purchased by individuals within the quota. They also include vehicles used by military-affiliated enterprises retained by the military and joint military-civilian organizations tasked with military support duties, within the allocated quota for military license plates.

Where are the brake and accelerator located in a manual transmission car?

In a manual transmission car, the brake and accelerator are located below the left side of the driver's compartment. The leftmost pedal is the clutch, the middle one is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. Here are the detailed introductions: The brake pedal is the pedal that limits power and is used for deceleration and stopping. It is used very frequently. The accelerator pedal, also known as the throttle pedal, is part of the car's fuel supply system. By controlling the amount of pressure applied to it, the engine throttle opening is adjusted, controlling the air intake. The computer then regulates the fuel supply, thereby controlling the engine's speed. The clutch pedal is the control device for the clutch assembly in a manual transmission car and serves as the 'human-machine' interaction between the car and the driver. The correctness of its operation directly affects the car's starting, gear shifting, and reversing. In manual transmission models, the left foot is only used to press the clutch pedal when shifting gears. During normal driving, the left foot should not rest on the pedal, as the brake and accelerator are controlled by the right foot. There are two reasons why the left foot should not remain on the pedal for extended periods: one is that it can cause foot fatigue, leading to unintentional pressing, which may result in sudden braking or acceleration. The other is that this habit often leads to unconsciously pressing the clutch pedal, keeping the clutch in a semi-engaged state, which can severely wear the clutch friction plates.
