It is suitable for older vehicles with significant wear or cars equipped with high-performance, large-displacement engines. Here are the relevant details: 1. Reasons for suitability: 10W50 oil has higher high-temperature viscosity and better lubricating properties, making it more suitable for older vehicles with considerable wear or those with high-performance, large-displacement engines. Due to the relatively severe wear in older engines, the gaps between engine components are larger, necessitating oil with higher viscosity and superior lubricating performance to ensure proper engine operation. 2. Benefits of using 10W50 oil: Higher viscosity oil offers more stable performance and better sealing, which can reduce engine noise during driving in older vehicles, making the ride more comfortable and smooth.

Is It a Violation to Run a Red Light Following a Large Vehicle?

In general, if a motor vehicle is captured following a large vehicle and running a red light, it is usually because the driver rushed through the intersection when the signal was changing. This behavior will be penalized as running a red light. However, if it is confirmed that the driver could not see the traffic signal due to the obstruction of the large vehicle, they can apply for reconsideration after being penalized. Drivers should maintain sufficient visibility to see the traffic signals ahead and ensure a safe braking distance. Penalty points for running a red light: According to Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2 of the "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Violations," driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signal regulations results in a 6-point penalty. Article 3, Section 1, Clause 8 states that driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibition signs or markings results in a 3-point penalty. How to check for red light violations: You can check for red light violations through the "Traffic Management 12123" app. After opening the app, log in using your ID card, then find and click on the "Violation Handling" option. In the violation handling section, you can see the current status of your vehicle. If there is a violation, the specific details will be displayed. Visit the office halls of the traffic police departments in various cities and districts to check using the touch-screen query terminals. Log in to the external service websites of the Public Security Traffic Management Bureau of each city: Find the vehicle violation query section, enter your license plate number and vehicle engine number, then click "Query."
