Compulsory traffic insurance is mandatory. Car insurance is divided into mandatory insurance and commercial car insurance, while commercial car insurance includes primary insurance and additional insurance. Here are the relevant introductions about car insurance: 1. Compulsory Traffic Insurance: It is a national mandatory car insurance that provides coverage for the other party's property and personal safety. 2. Special Insurance for Non-Deductible: The most important aspect of this car insurance is the absolute deductible rate. 3. Vehicle Damage Insurance: Vehicle damage insurance mainly covers the car. If the car is involved in an accident or suffers damage due to natural disasters, these losses can be compensated by the insurance company through vehicle damage insurance. 4. Third-Party Liability Insurance: This insurance primarily covers the personal injuries and property losses of third parties in traffic accidents. To supplement the coverage limit of compulsory traffic insurance, a comprehensive third-party liability insurance is necessary.

Having driven for over a decade, my experience tells me there are several mainstream car insurance options: compulsory traffic insurance is a basic necessity mandated by the state, covering fundamental compensation in accidents; commercial insurance includes third-party liability insurance, which protects against potential collisions with others or property damage; vehicle damage insurance covers repairs to your own car, regardless of where the accident occurs; there's also theft insurance, which allows claims if your car is stolen or hijacked; spontaneous loss insurance and standalone glass breakage insurance are also good options, protecting against vehicle spontaneous combustion or glass shattering, respectively; the no-deductible additional insurance can save you some out-of-pocket expenses. I recommend both beginners and experienced drivers prioritize third-party liability insurance and vehicle damage insurance for broader coverage and peace of mind while driving. When choosing insurance, consider regional risks and personal budgets—in congested urban areas with more accidents, investing a bit more doesn’t hurt.

Does the government mandate the scrapping of water-damaged vehicles?

There is no mandatory scrapping policy for water-damaged vehicles in China. Here is relevant information about water-damaged vehicles: 1. Definition: Water-damaged vehicles refer to automobiles that have been submerged in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been waterlogged, with immersion depth exceeding wheels and seats, or vehicle underbody components being in prolonged contact with water. 2. Hazards: The dangers of water-damaged vehicles are significant. Submersion can easily cause rusting of vehicle components, shortening service life and compromising safety performance. For instance, water damage leads to corrosion and rusting of electrical wiring, potentially causing sudden engine shutdowns or spontaneous combustion due to short circuits while driving, with potentially catastrophic consequences.

The Difference Between Revocation and Cancellation

The differences between revocation and cancellation: 1. Different nature: (1) Revocation: It is a legal penalty action, which is mandatory and punitive; (2) Cancellation: It is a legal withdrawal of administrative permission, which is deprivative, irreversible, and remedial. 2. Different concepts: (1) Logout: It means sending a request to the system to clear the currently logged-in user. After clearing, other users can log in to the system. Logout cannot replace a restart; it only clears the current user's cache space and registry information. (2) Cancellation: It is an action taken by an organization to cancel qualifications or certifications, meaning that the qualifications or certifications held by a natural person or legal entity are canceled by the issuing authority due to expiration or no longer meeting the requirements. 3. Different targets: (1) Logout: Logout means sending a request to the system to clear the currently logged-in user. (2) Cancellation: Cancellation is an action taken by an organization to cancel qualifications or certifications. Cancellation directly withdraws and revokes, usually enforced by strong authorities, and the consequences are generally guaranteed to be executed.

Why is the Volkswagen rearview mirror heating not working?

If the rearview mirror heating in a Volkswagen is not functioning, the first thing to consider is whether the outdoor temperature is too high. If the temperature is not the issue and the rearview mirror heating still doesn't work, it is advisable to seek timely inspection and repair. The rearview mirror heating function refers to the ability of the rearview mirror to be heated via electric heating wires embedded behind the mirror when driving in rainy, snowy, or foggy weather, ensuring a clear mirror surface. Below is an introduction to the rearview mirror heating function: 1. Suitable conditions: The rearview mirror heating is most useful during rainy or snowy weather. When activated, the heater behind the mirror quickly warms the mirror surface, gradually removing rain or fog from the mirror, eliminating the need for the driver to manually wipe the mirror frequently, thereby reducing driving hazards. 2. Principle: An electric heating element (heating film) is installed inside the mirror of both rearview mirrors. In rainy or snowy conditions, when the driver activates the rearview mirror heating function, the heating element rapidly heats up to a fixed temperature within a few minutes, typically between 35-60 degrees Celsius, thereby heating the mirror to remove fog and frost.

Can a Water-Damaged Car Still Be Used?

If a vehicle has been waterlogged, it is recommended not to drive or use it anymore. Below is extended information about the hazards of water-damaged cars: 1. The electronic control system inside the car: The mixed rainwater is highly corrosive and can affect the functionality of electrical components, especially impacting future use. Since most cars are equipped with electronic control systems (such as the engine ECU, ABS system, SRS system, GPS navigation, etc.), if water enters, it can cause short circuits in the ECU's internal IC circuit board and rust spots on connector terminals. This gradually leads to corrosion of metal parts, resulting in poor contact in circuits and even short circuits that may cause burning. 2. The engine: The engine connecting rod may deform, causing the piston stroke to shorten, which prevents gases from being fully compressed. The piston rings may lose elasticity or fail to seal properly, leading to gas leakage. Compressed gas may escape into the crankcase. If the intake and exhaust valves do not seal properly when closed, compressed gas may leak into the intake and exhaust manifolds.
