What is the VERNA?

Why is it recommended to avoid driving on highways at night?

The reasons to avoid driving on highways at night: 1. Prolonged nighttime driving can easily cause driver fatigue and drowsiness; 2. Visibility is significantly worse at night compared to daytime. Most highways are built in mountainous areas with limited lighting facilities, relying mainly on vehicle headlights, which reduces drivers' field of vision and reaction capability; 3. There are more large trucks on highways at night. These trucks typically have relatively weaker front and rear lights that are hard to notice unless nearby. Driving at high speeds without clear visibility of road conditions ahead significantly compromises driving safety.

Do out-of-town vehicles need to apply for a Beijing entry permit within the Sixth Ring Road?

Out-of-town vehicles need to apply for a Beijing entry permit within the Sixth Ring Road. The Beijing entry permit refers to a temporary pass for non-Beijing licensed vehicles entering areas within the Sixth Ring Road (excluding the Sixth Ring Road itself) and certain sections outside the Sixth Ring Road. The permit is valid for 7 days. On the day before expiration, the day of expiration, and the day after expiration, you can apply for a 5-day extension at the local traffic police detachment. After 12 days, if you still need the Beijing entry permit, you must go to a comprehensive inspection station to reapply for a new 7-day permit. There are Beijing entry permit application points and inspection stations at various highways leading into the city. Since 2014, the long-term Beijing entry permit with a validity period of six months has been discontinued, and only temporary permits are available. When applying for a Beijing entry permit in 2016, you must provide your driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, ID card, compulsory traffic insurance policy, valid vehicle inspection label, and green environmental protection compliance certificate—none of these can be missing.

Will changing lanes over a solid white line on the highway be captured by cameras?

Changing lanes over a solid white line on the highway will be captured by cameras, as vehicles are not allowed to cross solid white lines to enter the main lane. Driving over white lines on the highway is considered a traffic violation, so it is important to avoid such behavior while driving. It is especially crucial to adhere to traffic rules on highways to prevent accidents. When driving on highways, you can use navigation prompts to control your vehicle's speed and ensure it does not exceed the maximum speed limit for the section. Violating traffic regulations and being caught on camera can result in severe penalties. The system for capturing lane changes over solid lines uses ground-pressure magnetic induction coils. When the front wheels of a vehicle pass over the induction coil on the ground, the electronic system takes the first photo. When the rear wheels pass over the coil, the second photo is taken. Finally, when the vehicle crosses the intersection and passes over the induction coil on the opposite side, the third photo is captured.

Can the Hongqi H5 use 92 octane gasoline?

The Hongqi H5 should not use 92 octane gasoline; it is recommended to use 95 octane gasoline as specified in the vehicle's official user manual. This helps better protect and maintain the vehicle while extending the lifespan of its components. The impact of using 92 octane gasoline in a car designed for 95 octane is that it may cause engine knocking. Mixing 92 and 95 octane gasoline is not advisable. 95 octane gasoline is suitable for engines with high compression ratios. If 92 octane gasoline is used in such engines, abnormal combustion may occur, leading to knocking, engine damage, and faster carbon buildup. This can result in insufficient power, increased engine wear, or even engine failure. Gasoline is a mixture, and while the chemical compositions of 92 and 95 octane are similar, their anti-knock properties differ. For vehicle safety, it is best to use them separately. The differences between 92 and 95 octane gasoline lie in their octane ratings and quality, as explained below: Octane rating difference: 92 octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95 octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. Quality difference: The octane rating represents the gasoline's resistance to knocking. Higher-octane gasoline has better anti-knock properties, ensuring smoother engine operation, reduced wear, and better engine protection. Using higher-octane gasoline in a vehicle designed for lower octane will not cause damage, but the increased octane rating may alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. Using lower-octane gasoline in a vehicle designed for higher octane may cause engine knocking. The lower octane rating reduces the ignition point, causing premature combustion during the compression stroke. This creates resistance during the piston's upward movement, leading to unstable engine operation. Mild knocking may only increase noise without significant engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine issues, affecting stability and causing abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, potentially leading to engine failure. If the wrong gasoline is accidentally used, refueling with the correct octane gasoline during the next fill-up should restore normal operation. Some drivers believe using higher-octane gasoline improves performance, but this is unnecessary if the engine's compression ratio does not require it. At best, it may slightly reduce emissions and keep the engine cleaner.

Does getting demerit points during the probation period of a C1 driver's license have any impact?

Getting demerit points during the probation period of a C1 driver's license does not have any impact. Accumulating demerit points during the probation period will not extend the probation period and will not affect the formalization of the license. However, if you accumulate 12 demerit points during the probation period, your driver's license will be revoked. To obtain a new license, you will need to retake all the driving tests, from Theory Test (Subject 1) to Road Test (Subject 4), and pass them all. The penalties during the probation period are very strict, so it is crucial to avoid accumulating 12 demerit points. There are two specific regulations to follow during the probation period: 1. A "Probationary Driver" sign must be displayed at the rear of the vehicle. Whether it's a new or used car, and regardless of ownership, if the driver is in the probation period, this sign must be displayed. Displaying the sign greatly benefits driving safety, as most drivers will keep their distance and yield to vehicles with this sign. 2. Probationary drivers cannot drive alone on highways. Regardless of driving skills, a probationary driver must be accompanied by an experienced driver who has held a license for at least three years when driving on highways.

Can Exempted Vehicles Apply for Inspection Exemption Marks Online?

Exempted vehicles can apply for inspection exemption marks online. Vehicles that qualify for exemption only need to apply for an inspection compliance mark every two years, and the inspection validity date will no longer be stamped on the supplementary page of the vehicle license. To apply for the exemption mark, you can visit the vehicle management office, bringing the original ID card of the applicant, the vehicle license, a copy of the valid compulsory traffic insurance policy, and proof of vehicle and vessel tax. Additionally, you can apply through the local "Online Vehicle Management Office" or via WeChat. Online, you need to fill in the vehicle information as required, including uploading photos of the front and back of the ID card, a front photo of the applicant, the front of the vehicle license and its supplementary page, proof of vehicle and vessel tax, and a copy of the compulsory traffic insurance policy. If the backend has the data, uploading may not be necessary. After submission, a certain postal delivery fee must be paid. Upon successful payment, traffic management personnel will review the application within two working days. Once approved, wait for the motor vehicle inspection compliance mark to be delivered by mail, which typically takes 5 to 7 working days.
