Can I claim insurance if I left the scene unknowingly after a scratch?

Yes. You can claim insurance for a scratch you left unknowingly. If the damage from the scratch is severe, you can contact the traffic police to file a report and find the responsible party to bear the corresponding accident liability. If the responsible party cannot be found, you need to have purchased the 'Cannot Find Third Party Special Clause' insurance to directly use your own car insurance for compensation. Below are the relevant details: Insurance Discounts: If the policyholder does not file any claims during the validity period of the insurance contract, the premium for the next year will be reduced by 10% based on the original premium. This discount can be applied for three consecutive years, after which the insurance company will no longer provide any preferential policies. Premium Increase: If the policyholder files one claim within a year, the premium will not increase. If the policyholder files two claims within a year, the premium will increase by 10%.

Will Small Pits on the Windshield Expand?

Small pits on the windshield can expand due to the varying pressure exerted on the glass as vehicle speed and wind speed change. The faster the speed and wind, the greater the pressure on the glass, causing the small pits to gradually enlarge under increased pressure. Methods to maintain the windshield include: 1. Use specialized or suitable wiper blades and replace them promptly to avoid scratching the front windshield; 2. Remove debris from the front windshield; 3. Use automotive-specific glass cleaner. Solutions for windshield fogging include: 1. For minor fogging, open the windows—when the inside and outside temperatures equalize, the fog will dissipate; 2. Turn on the car's air conditioning in cooling mode; 3. Activate the heating system before driving; 4. Use the car's defogging function; 5. Apply a mixture of dish soap and water or soapy water to the windows; 6. Place dehumidifying boxes designed for wardrobes in the car.

How to Handle the Situation When All 12 Points on Your Driver's License Are Deducted?

The procedures for handling the deduction of all 12 points on a driver's license are as follows: 1. The traffic management department of the public security authority will confiscate the driver's motor vehicle license; 2. The driver must participate in the study of road traffic safety-related knowledge and take an examination as required; 3. Upon passing the examination, the points will be cleared, and the motor vehicle license will be returned; 4. If the driver fails the examination, they must continue to participate in study and retake the examination; 5. If the driver neither participates in the study nor takes the examination, the traffic management department of the public security authority will announce the suspension of their motor vehicle license.

Should the Ford Kuga Prompt for Engine Oil Replacement?

Reasons why the Ford Kuga prompts for engine oil replacement: The vehicle's set maintenance mileage has been reached, requiring maintenance and oil change to cancel the prompt. Method to eliminate the maintenance prompt: Press the start button to power on the trip computer for self-check, and the dashboard will display "Engine oil needs replacement." Simultaneously press the brake pedal and accelerator pedal (engine not started). After holding them down, the dashboard will display "resetinprong." Continue holding for about 20 seconds until the dashboard no longer shows any progress bar, then keep holding until the central dashboard displays "resetcomplete." Turn off and restart the car to eliminate the maintenance prompt. Consequences of not replacing engine oil for a long time: If the oil is not replaced for an extended period, it will deteriorate, losing its protective function and reducing lubrication effectiveness. This leads to severe wear of internal engine components, a significant decrease in cooling performance, difficulty in dissipating heat inside the engine, and may cause "engine seizure."
