Three 1-inch bareheaded, white-background color photos are required for driver's license renewal. Do not wear white clothes or uniforms. Those who need vision correction must wear glasses. The head should occupy about two-thirds of the photo length, and the photo must be clear and recognizable. Methods for renewing old and new driver's licenses: Drivers currently holding an A license and qualified to drive large buses can apply for a large passenger vehicle license (A1) if they are 26 years or older; those 24 years or older can apply for a heavy or medium full-trailer or semi-trailer vehicle license (A2); those 21 years or older can apply for a city bus license (A3) with a capacity of 10 or more passengers. Drivers currently holding a B license and qualified to drive large trucks can apply for a heavy or medium full-trailer or semi-trailer vehicle license (A2) if they are 24 years or older; those 21 years or older can apply for a medium passenger vehicle license (B1) or a heavy or medium truck license, or a large, heavy, or medium special-purpose vehicle license (B2). Drivers currently holding a C license and qualified to drive small cars can apply for a medium passenger vehicle license (B1) if they are 21 years or older. They can also apply for a small or mini passenger vehicle license, or a light or mini truck license, or a light, small, or mini special-purpose vehicle license (C1); or apply for a small or mini automatic transmission passenger vehicle license, or a light or mini automatic transmission truck license (C2). Required documents: "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form"; Proof of identity: For residents, the proof of identity is the original and a copy of the "Resident ID Card"; For residents living in temporary residences, the proof of identity is the original and a copy of the "Resident ID Card" and the original and a copy of the temporary residence permit issued by the public security authority; For active military personnel (including armed police), the proof of identity is the original and a copy of the "Resident ID Card" or the original and a copy of the military ID issued by the People's Liberation Army or the armed police force, and the original proof issued by the military unit at or above the regimental level indicating the ID number and residential address; For foreign nationals, the proof of identity is the original and a copy of their entry identity document and the original and a copy of their residence permit; For personnel of foreign embassies, consulates, and international organizations in China, the proof of identity is the original and a copy of the valid ID document issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Can a fuel vehicle license plate be used for a new energy vehicle?

No. According to relevant policies and regulations, only when the owner purchases a fuel vehicle can they apply for license plate retention. The vehicle management office inspects motor vehicles for registration, and those entering the national new energy vehicle catalog must use special new energy license plates for registration. The following is a related introduction to new energy vehicles: Introduction to new energy vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to vehicles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new onboard power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving, resulting in advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. Classification of new energy vehicles: New energy vehicles include hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), battery electric vehicles (BEV), fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV), hydrogen engine vehicles, as well as gas vehicles, alcohol ether vehicles, etc.

What are the techniques for pressing the accelerator with a CVT transmission?

CVT transmission accelerator pressing techniques, the following are specific instructions: 1. When starting, gently press the accelerator to about one-quarter of the total throttle travel to prevent sudden vehicle lurching caused by excessive throttle, which could lead to accidents. 2. When shifting gears, if you want to upshift by using the accelerator, gently release the accelerator when the engine speed reaches around 2000 RPM, and the car's computer system will default to upshifting. 3. When overtaking, the car needs relatively high torque. If the car is in a high gear with low RPM, first downshift using manual mode and then accelerate to overtake.

What is the top speed of the Sai 350?

The Sai 350 has a top speed of around 150 km/h. Even after modifications, the actual speed without damaging the vehicle remains around 150 km/h. Below is an introduction related to highway speed limits: Minimum speed: The minimum speed must not be lower than 60 km/h. On highways, the maximum speed for small passenger vehicles must not exceed 120 km/h, while other motor vehicles must not exceed 100 km/h, and motorcycles must not exceed 80 km/h. Same-direction lanes: For roads with 2 lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed in the left lane is 100 km/h. For roads with 3 or more lanes in the same direction, the minimum speed in the leftmost lane is 110 km/h, in the middle lane is 90 km/h, and in the rightmost lane is 60 km/h.

Why is there a rubbing sound coming from the car?

This situation may be caused by friction in the braking system. Here is relevant information: 1. Introduction: The braking system consists of a control system, hydraulic system, and power assist system. 2. Working principle: The principle of the braking system is to generate enormous friction, converting the vehicle's kinetic energy into thermal energy. As we all know, energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can only be transformed from one form to another or transferred from one object to another, with the total amount of energy remaining constant during the process of transformation or transfer. During acceleration, a car converts chemical energy into thermal and kinetic energy, while during braking, the braking system converts the car's kinetic energy into thermal energy and dissipates it into the air.

What Causes a Car's Air Conditioning to Stop Cooling After Half an Hour of Use?

Here are the reasons why a car's air conditioning stops cooling after half an hour of use: Internal Damage: Severe internal wear of the compressor, leading to its inability to function properly. Oil Contamination: Oil stains at connection points or seams indicate refrigerant leakage, necessitating re-tightening or replacement of the affected parts. Electrical System Malfunction: Electrical system failures are also a common cause of the car's air conditioning compressor not working properly. Check if the circuit is functioning smoothly, inspect the temperature sensor solenoid valve, and look for other potential faults. Low-Pressure Gauge Reading Significantly Below Normal: The surface temperature of the compressor's suction pipe is lower than normal, appearing damp and icy (commonly referred to as sweating).

What is the standard size reference for car steering wheels?

Generally, most sedans use a medium-sized steering wheel of 38cm, while some may have a large-sized 40cm or small-sized 36cm wheel. The importance of steering wheels: As a crucial component of the steering system, any minor discrepancy in the steering wheel can lead to serious consequences. Therefore, when purchasing a steering wheel cover, it is essential to choose one that matches the original wheel size. If the steering wheel cover is significantly larger than the original, it may slip during turning or when the wheel returns to center, resulting in insufficient steering. Function of the steering wheel: Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft.
