The legally stipulated service life of a car is fifteen years, but it does not mean that the car must be scrapped after fifteen years. The service life can be extended with timely annual inspections. The new regulations for the scrapping of household cars are as follows: New scrapping regulations based on mileage: The new regulations for the scrapping of household cars remove the stipulation on the service life of private cars and set the scrapping mileage limit for private cars at 600,000 kilometers. This method, which replaces the service life limit with a mileage limit, greatly improves the utilization rate of cars. New regulations abolish scrapping age limit: The scrapping age limit for household cars has been abolished. Under the new policy, private cars need to undergo two annual inspections per year starting from the 15th year after registration, and four regular inspections per year starting from the 21st year for cars older than 20 years. The annual inspections have strict regulations for older vehicles.

Why Can't the Mercedes-Benz Windshield Washer Spray Water?

The reasons why the Mercedes-Benz windshield washer cannot spray water are as follows: 1. Insufficient water in the windshield washer container; 2. Blockage or rupture of the windshield washer pipeline preventing water from spraying; 3. The washer motor has stopped working; 4. Circuit failure of the washer motor. Below are the steps to resolve the issue when the windshield washer cannot spray water: 1. If the Mercedes-Benz windshield washer cannot spray water, first check if the pump motor is working. If not, inspect whether the fuse is blown, if the wiring is securely connected, and if the pump motor is burned out. 2. Check if the water hose is ruptured, if the connection is loose, or if the nozzle is blocked. Replace the hose if it is ruptured, reconnect if it is loose, and use a thin wire to unclog the nozzle if it is blocked. 3. If there is water in the reservoir and the motor is working, you can disconnect the hose below the nozzle and press the washer switch. If water sprays from the hose, it indicates a nozzle blockage, which can be cleared with a thin wire.

Is it allowed to make a U-turn at an intersection without a U-turn sign?

It is allowed to make a U-turn at an intersection without a U-turn sign. Precautions for making a U-turn with a car: 1. Choose an appropriate section to make a U-turn: It is strictly prohibited to make a U-turn on bridges, tunnels, culverts, railway crossings, and sections with no U-turn signs to prevent road blockage and traffic disruption. 2. Judge the distance: When making a U-turn, since the distance between each wheel and the roadside is not equal, the judgment should be based on the wheel closest to the roadside. 3. Pay attention to obstacles on both sides of the U-turn section: to prevent collisions. 4. When making a U-turn on a road during rainy or snowy days: Do not let the wheels get too close to the roadside to prevent side slipping or the wheels sinking due to soft roadbeds. 5. When making a U-turn on dangerous sections or inclined roads: Whether moving forward or backward, ensure the car is completely stopped, tighten the parking brake lever, and face the car towards the dangerous direction for better observation.

Why Do License Plates Fall Off When Driving Through Water?

Here are the specific reasons why vehicle license plates may fall off when driving through water: 1. Strong Impact: The faster the car speed, the greater the impact force of the water, making it easier for the license plate to be washed away. 2. Retrievable: If the license plate is washed away by water, you can stop and look for it if conditions permit. If it cannot be found, report to the police immediately to prevent it from being used for illegal activities such as cloning. Below is additional information on how to handle a washed-away license plate: 1. Search: If you notice the license plate is missing and haven't driven far or are still near the waterlogged area, you can stop and go back to search. If it cannot be found, report to the police. 2. Unable to Search: If conditions do not allow you to go back and search, call the police immediately to file a report. 3. Apply for a Replacement at the DMV: Bring the vehicle registration certificate, the owner's original ID card and a copy, a proof of license plate loss, and the vehicle registration certificate.

What is the minimum speed limit on urban roads?

When driving on urban roads, the minimum speed limit for roads without a centerline is 30 kilometers per hour, while the maximum speed on urban roads without speed limit signs or markings is 70 kilometers per hour. Specific limits are determined based on the indication signs or markings of different roads or sections as needed. For urban road driving: roads without a centerline have a speed limit of 30 km/h; roads with only one lane in the same direction have a speed limit of 50 km/h; roads with two lanes in the same direction have a maximum speed of 70 km/h, while closed motorways have a limit of 80 km/h. Exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% results in a warning to the driver without fines or penalty points; exceeding by 10%-20% incurs a fine and 3 penalty points; exceeding by 20%-50% incurs a fine and 6 penalty points; exceeding by 50% or more incurs a fine and 12 penalty points.

Does a Light Enclosed Truck Belong to the Category of Small Trucks?

Light enclosed trucks belong to the category of small trucks. Below is the relevant introduction: Light Enclosed Truck: It is a type of cargo vehicle where the cargo area is structured as an enclosed compartment integrated with the driver's cabin, featuring a monocoque design as a van-type cargo vehicle. Also known as container trucks or enclosed trucks, van-type trucks are commercial vehicles primarily used for transporting goods, characterized by an independent enclosed structure or a monocoque design integrated with the driver's cabin. Vehicle Parameters: Heavy-duty cargo vehicles are defined as those with a vehicle length ≥6m and a total mass ≥12,000kg; medium-duty cargo vehicles have a vehicle length ≥6m and a total mass ≥4,500kg but <12,000kg; light-duty cargo vehicles have a vehicle length <6m and a total mass <4,500kg; micro cargo vehicles have a vehicle length ≤3.5m and a load capacity ≤750kg.

What is the maximum horsepower of a single-cylinder diesel engine?

The maximum horsepower of a single-cylinder diesel engine is 35 HP. Here is some relevant knowledge about single-cylinder diesel engines: Characteristics of single-cylinder diesel engines: Single-cylinder air-cooled diesel engines are favored by a wide range of users for their lightweight, compact size, simple layout, and ease of repair, and are widely used as power sources for micro tillers. However, compared to water-cooled diesel engines, they appear particularly 'delicate,' with a high frequency of malfunctions and low reliability if not used properly. Working process of a single-cylinder diesel engine: Each working cycle of a single-cylinder diesel engine goes through four processes: intake, compression, power, and exhaust. In one working cycle, only one stroke is the power stroke, while the other three strokes are auxiliary strokes that create conditions for the power stroke. Therefore, the operation of a single-cylinder diesel engine is unstable. The development of single-cylinder diesel engines still relies on technological innovation, continuously using new technologies to improve the existing shortcomings and deficiencies of single-cylinder diesel engines and expand their range of applications.
