The validity period of a newly issued motor vehicle driver's license is 6 years. If the motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the six-year validity period of the license, they will be issued a motor vehicle driver's license with a validity period of 10 years. If the driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the ten-year validity period of the license, they will be issued a long-term valid motor vehicle driver's license. Introduction to motor vehicle driver's licenses: Definition of motor vehicle driver's license: It refers to the legal certificate issued by the administrative department after a person who is legally allowed to learn to drive a motor vehicle has studied and mastered the knowledge of traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the examination. Examination subjects for motor vehicle driver's license: include three items: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving).

I remember when I first got my car driver's license, my friend told me it was valid for 6 years, marking the beginning of nearly half a lifetime of driving. I was so excited when I first got it that I didn’t think much about it, but after driving for a few years, I realized I’d need to undergo a medical checkup and renew the license, otherwise, it would expire and I’d be driving without a license. Every time I see news about safety accidents, I remind new drivers to follow up promptly. Six years is enough time for a novice to become an experienced driver, and applying for a new license becomes much easier then, but don’t procrastinate too long and forget about it.

How to Choose Car Antifreeze?

Antifreeze's basic indicators are freezing point and boiling point. In the market, antifreeze comes in several specifications such as -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. Generally, it is advisable to choose one that is at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Composition of Antifreeze: The main components of antifreeze are: 50% pure water, 40% methanol, and 10% other substances. Types of Antifreeze: Antifreeze is generally divided into three types: ethanol-water type, glycerol-water type, and ethylene glycol-water type. Can Different Antifreeze Brands Be Mixed? It is necessary to use the same brand of antifreeze. Different brands of antifreeze may have different production formulas. If mixed, various additives may undergo chemical reactions, rendering the additives ineffective.

What are the symptoms of a broken engine timing belt?

Symptoms of a broken timing belt: 1. The car may experience unstable speed and a tendency to stall while driving. 2. Sometimes, you may feel a lack of power during acceleration, and in severe cases, you might notice engine shaking. Consequences of a broken timing belt: 1. When the timing belt breaks, the connection between the camshaft and the crankshaft is interrupted. Without power from the camshaft, the valve group it controls will fail to open and close properly, and the pistons may bend the valve stems due to inertia. 2. If the engine is running at high RPM, the pistons may also suffer from burn damage, and in severe cases, this can lead to complete engine failure. 3. If you notice the timing belt has broken, pull over safely and wait for assistance. 4. Regularly inspect the condition of the timing belt. Check for oil or coolant stains on the belt surface—if present, clean them thoroughly. Also, examine the belt teeth for wear and look for surface cracks. Replace the belt immediately if any damage is found to prevent engine failure. 5. The typical lifespan of a timing belt is around 3 years or 60,000–80,000 kilometers, depending on the vehicle model and actual usage. Refer to the car's maintenance manual for specific guidance.

How to Set Up Auto Lock for Elysion?

Elysion models do not come with an auto-lock feature and require owners to install it themselves. Here is some information about the auto-lock function: 1. The purpose of the auto-lock feature is theft prevention. It quickly locks the doors after driving, preventing door-pull robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, providing a certain level of security. 2. The auto-lock also protects child passengers inside the car, preventing young children from opening the door handles while the car is in motion. 3. However, it also has some drawbacks, such as potentially hindering escape in case of an accident.

Can Car Engine Oil Be Used for Motorcycles?

Car engine oil cannot be used for motorcycles because the working characteristics of motorcycle engines are different from those of car engines. Motorcycle engines operate at higher RPMs and experience faster RPM increases. Car engine oil cannot meet the lubrication requirements of motorcycle engines, so specialized motorcycle oil must be used. Performance requirements for motorcycle oil: Motorcycle oil needs stronger high-temperature shear resistance, high-temperature oxidation resistance, and an appropriate friction coefficient. Motorcycle engines operate at 1.5 to 2.1 times the RPM of car engines, with a power-to-displacement ratio 1.3 to 1.9 times higher. Under such high-RPM, high-load conditions, motorcycle oil must exhibit superior high-temperature shear resistance. Additionally, motorcycles have poorer heat dissipation compared to cars, requiring higher high-temperature oxidation resistance from the oil. Four-stroke motorcycle engines are connected to the transmission, and the lubricating oil serves a triple role in lubricating the engine, clutch, and drivetrain, each with different lubrication requirements. During the break-in period of a motorcycle, the first oil change should be done at 500 kilometers, followed by every 1,000 kilometers thereafter. If the vehicle is used infrequently, it is still recommended to change the oil at least twice a year.

What is the button with an 'A' inside a circle in a car?

The button with an 'A' inside a circle in a car is the switch for the auto start-stop system. Pressing this button can turn the auto start-stop system on or off. Here is some related information: 1. The auto start-stop system automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle comes to a temporary stop (such as at a red light) and restarts the engine when it's time to move forward again. 2. The auto start-stop system is equipped with an enhanced motor that has idle start-stop functionality, allowing the engine to completely shut off when the conditions for idle stopping are met. When the vehicle needs to start moving again, the idle start-stop motor system quickly responds to the driver's command, rapidly restarting the engine for seamless operation, thereby reducing fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.

Why does the car shake when idling?

Reasons for engine idle shaking: 1. Engine intake pipe leakage: The intake system contains many intake manifolds or various valves. Leakage in these components allows unwanted gases to enter, causing the concentration of the air-fuel mixture in the intake manifold to become too high or too low, ultimately leading to intermittent engine shaking or weak idle performance. 2. Fuel system blockage or malfunction: Due to a blocked fuel tank vent, clogged fuel tank valve, fuel filter, or fuel lines between the tank and the carburetor, the engine may not receive the required amount of fuel during idle, resulting in a lean mixture, reduced engine power output, and idle shaking. 3. Idle control valve failure: The idle operation of an electronic fuel injection engine is mostly controlled by the idle control valve. The ECU adjusts the opening of the idle control valve based on signals such as engine speed, temperature, and throttle position to maintain stable idle speed. If the valve malfunctions, it can cause uneven air distribution, fluctuating idle power, and vehicle shaking. 4. Engine carbon buildup: This includes carbon deposits in the cylinders, throttle body, spark plugs, and intake system—areas critical to engine power output. Excessive carbon buildup reduces ignition energy, decreases intake efficiency, and ultimately leads to unstable engine power output, idle shaking, and poor acceleration.
