Precautions after replacing the car windshield: 1. Do not wash the car within three days after replacing the windshield, and the tape fixing the windshield position can be removed after three days; 2. Avoid driving on excessively bumpy roads, and avoid emergency braking and rapid acceleration to prevent the windshield from shifting; 3. Do not insert parking permits or other cards into the gap between the front windshield and the dashboard; 4. Do not apply window film within seven days; 5. After replacing the rear windshield, do not open the windows while driving within three days to prevent the windshield from shifting due to wind pressure; 6. Keep the speed below 80 km/h when driving. Currently, car front windshields are mainly made of laminated tempered glass and laminated zoned tempered glass, which can withstand strong impacts.

Is it okay to reverse at a highway toll gate if the ETC doesn't work?

Reversing at a highway toll gate when the ETC doesn't work is not considered a traffic violation. The toll station is not considered part of the highway, so reversing is allowed. However, when reversing, you need to ensure the surroundings are safe. If it is safe, you can reverse out of the ETC lane and re-enter the manual toll lane to queue. ETC Usage Precautions: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. If the vehicle in front is stopped, to prevent issues such as the front vehicle's ETC device malfunctioning or not having an ETC device at all, maintain a distance of at least 10 meters to avoid automatic payment for the front vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 km/h. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to payment failure. Unauthorized removal or movement of the OBU device, or if the ETC electronic tag becomes loose or detached, may cause the tag to deactivate. In such cases, you can take it to the bank where the ETC card was issued or a highway service center for inspection. If the issue is not due to human interference, reactivation may suffice. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may cause payment failure. Follow the instructions of on-site staff to use the manual MTC lane and pay via cash or card. Thick car windshields may cause poor signal reception. This is especially important for vehicles that have had their windshields replaced after accidents or modified front windshields.

Can Pine Resin Dropped from Pine Trees on Cars Be Washed Off?

Pine resin dropped from pine trees on cars can be washed off. Basic Information about Pine Resin: Pine resin is a pale yellow or dark brown liquid with a distinctive odor of pine root oil. It has strong emulsifying properties, good wetting, penetrating, and leveling abilities, making it suitable for washing, fabric dyeing, and as a solvent for coatings, varnishes, and oils. It is also used as a mineral flotation agent, alcohol denaturant, antifoaming agent, and wetting agent. Storage Methods for Pine Resin: Store in containers made of iron, mild steel, copper, or aluminum. For long-term storage, keep in a cool, ventilated place away from light and sealed to avoid exposure to air and light, which can lead to the formation of resinous substances. Avoid skin contact.

What is the general standard for four-wheel tire pressure?

The general standard for four-wheel tire pressure is 2.5kg for the front wheels and 2.7kg for the rear wheels. In summer, it is 2.3kg for the front wheels and 2.5kg for the rear wheels. Before traveling, observe the tire condition: Radial tires—commonly known as low-pressure tires—are normal as long as the flatness is not too low. If you feel strong elasticity when stepping on them with your foot and they are not too soft, they are normal. High-pressure tires—bias-ply tires with inner tubes—are normal if the shoulder area does not protrude when viewed from the front (commonly referred to as 'not bulging') and the contact area with the ground appears similar to usual when viewed from the side. Pay attention to the sound of tire friction with the ground: While driving, listen to the sound of tire friction with the ground, feel the cushioning force when passing over uneven roads, and notice if there are any changes in acceleration when accelerating compared to usual. These are all experiences accumulated over time.

Where is the VIN located on a four-wheeled vehicle?

Vehicle Identification Number: (or frame number), abbreviated as VIN, is a unique set of seventeen letters or numbers used on automobiles to identify the manufacturer, engine, chassis serial number, and other specifications. Two formats of Vehicle Identification Numbers: There are mainly two formats of VINs. The first is the ISO3779 standard adopted by the European Union, and the second standard is primarily used in North America, which is more stringent than the first but still compatible with it.
