How many days does it take to free up the license plate quota after selling a car?

The license plate quota will be freed up in about 5 working days after selling the car. After the car is sold, the buyer needs to complete the transfer procedures. Once the buyer finishes the transfer process at the vehicle management office, there will be a 3 to 5-day archival period. After that, the vehicle management office will transmit the data to the passenger car quota office. Only then can the owner go to the passenger car quota office to obtain the updated quota. With the updated quota, the owner can then purchase a new car. Below are some considerations when selling a used car: Choose multiple selling methods: You can post sale information online, sell to dealers at a used car market, trade in at a 4S store, or participate in used car auctions, etc. This allows you to understand the various selling channels and compare prices to choose the best selling method. Prepare all vehicle transfer documents before selling: Incomplete documents may delay the best time to sell and cause financial losses. For example, it's best to apply for the vehicle registration certificate in advance, as the reapplication process usually takes a long time, increasing the chance of buyer hesitation. Therefore, owners should consider obtaining the registration certificate themselves before selling their car. Additionally, if the vehicle is being transferred to another region, ensure all transfer procedures are thoroughly completed, and confirm with the buyer whether they can complete the vehicle registration process locally. Finally, it's advisable to keep copies of the transaction invoice, new vehicle license, and the transfer section of the registration certificate for your records. Conduct a vehicle inspection before selling: For vehicles with fewer years of use and good performance, consider performing a basic performance inspection before selling. Providing an inspection report can reassure buyers and help fetch a better price.

What is the function of seat belts during a vehicle collision?

The function of seat belts during a vehicle collision is to reduce the severity of injuries to drivers and passengers. Car seat belts are safety devices designed to restrain occupants during a collision and prevent secondary collisions with the steering wheel, dashboard, etc., or to avoid occupants being ejected from the vehicle, which can lead to fatalities or injuries. Car seat belts are widely recognized as the most cost-effective and efficient safety device, and many countries mandate their installation in vehicles. Below are precautions for driving on highways: Drive in designated lanes: Highways have clearly marked lanes for large vehicles, small vehicles, etc. When overtaking, once you occupy a lane, return to your appropriate lane promptly after completing the overtaking maneuver, and avoid occupying other lanes for extended periods. Additionally, emergency lanes should not be occupied for non-emergency reasons. Maintain a safe speed and avoid speeding: The dangers of speeding are well-known, as it can lead to irreversible consequences both on local roads and highways. Maintain a safe following distance: Generally, on dry roads with good braking conditions, the following distance (in meters) should not be less than the speed (in km/h). For example, at 80 km/h, maintain at least 80 meters, and at 100 km/h, maintain at least 100 meters. Always pay attention to roadside distance markers. In rainy, foggy, snowy, or wet road conditions, the following distance should be more than doubled. Observe traffic signs: Always be aware of roadside and overhead signs and markings while driving, and stay appropriately to the right to avoid crossing the right lane divider, allowing sufficient lateral distance for overtaking vehicles. Do not occupy emergency lanes unnecessarily during accidents: Traffic accidents are inevitable on highways. If other vehicles cause a blockage, do not occupy the emergency lane, as it may hinder rescue operations. Avoid fatigued driving and take timely breaks: Fatigued driving is extremely dangerous on highways. When fatigued, reaction times decrease, making it difficult to respond correctly to sudden situations.
