Driver's licenses are reset at 24:00 on the last day of each reset cycle. Below is a detailed introduction about motor vehicle driver's licenses: 1. Overview: The full name of a driver's license is a motor vehicle driver's license, also known as a "driving license," which is a certificate that motor vehicle drivers must apply for in accordance with the law. Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills, and people lacking these skills may cause traffic accidents if they drive recklessly. Driving without a license is prohibited. 2. Notes: The permission to drive a vehicle is granted through the issuance of a driver's license. This indicates that obtaining a driver's license is a formalized process that must be carried out by a specialized authority.

I've been driving for several years, and the process of clearing points on my driver's license is quite straightforward. The scoring cycle starts from the day you first obtained your license and automatically resets after a full 12 months. For example, I got my license last June, so my points will reset this June. However, it's important to note that if you have any unresolved traffic violations, your points won't reset and will carry over to the next cycle. Therefore, it's best to drive carefully—avoid speeding or running red lights. If you do get points deducted, make sure to promptly handle the violations at the traffic management department. Once, I delayed handling a minor violation, and my points didn't reset at the end of the cycle, nearly reaching 12 points, which would have required me to take a refresher course and test. I recommend everyone remember their license issuance date and check it using the Traffic Management 12123 App for convenience and peace of mind.

I just got my driver's license not long ago and was curious about how the points reset time works. I asked my instructor, and he said the demerit point cycle resets 12 months after the date you first obtained the license. For example, if I got my license last month, the points will automatically reset to zero on the same date next year. However, if there are any unhandled traffic violations during this period, the points won't reset and may accumulate. New drivers tend to be nervous and make mistakes—I already got two points deducted but quickly dealt with it. I heard that reaching 12 points means retaking the theory test (Subject 1), which is quite troublesome. It's best to review traffic rules regularly and prioritize safety to avoid mistakes. I recommend checking your violation records periodically to avoid issues when the points reset.

Having driven for over twenty years, clearing points on my driver's license is a piece of cake—it automatically resets on the same day each year, exactly 12 months from the date of issuance. The key is to settle all traffic violations promptly; otherwise, the points won't reset. I've seen many folks procrastinate, only to be disappointed when the reset time comes. Drive carefully, obey speed limits and traffic signals, and you'll naturally have fewer points to worry about. Accumulating 12 points means suspension and mandatory training, which is a hassle. Make it a habit to regularly check your points and violations using a mobile app, and handle them in a timely manner.

What size tires does the Haval F7 use?

The Haval F7 uses two different tire specifications: 225/55r19 and 225/65r17. Typically, higher-end models are equipped with larger wheels, which require correspondingly larger tires. Tires operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, and extreme temperatures during driving. Therefore, they must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, cushioning capability, and wear resistance. In terms of exterior design, the car's side profile presents a robust appearance, with multiple character lines enhancing the sense of layering. The chrome-trimmed window lines rise towards the rear and taper at the tail, adding visual tension.

Is ETC mandatory on highways now?

Highways can be accessed without ETC. Because ETC is not mandatory to install. Since January 1, 2020, vehicles without ETC will no longer enjoy various toll reduction policies, and can only pay tolls through manual lanes when passing toll stations. It may be a bit inconvenient during holidays. ETC is just a different toll collection method and has nothing to do with whether you can access highways. There are two toll collection methods on highways: manual toll collection and ETC toll collection. ETC is the abbreviation of Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply, you need to provide the original and photocopy of the owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. If it is not the owner who applies, you also need to bring the agent's valid ID card. The photocopy of the vehicle license needs to include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp; a bank card for deducting highway tolls; aged between 18 and 60; and the vehicle must be under the individual's name. How ETC works: Through the on-board electronic tag installed on the vehicle's windshield, it communicates with the microwave antenna in the ETC lane of the toll station, and uses computer networking technology to settle accounts with the bank in the background, allowing the vehicle to pay highway or bridge tolls without stopping when passing through highway or bridge toll stations. Benefits of installing ETC: Save time: Avoid the hassle of queuing and waiting; Green and environmentally friendly: Green and low-carbon, vehicles pass through toll stations without stopping, reducing noise and exhaust emissions and pollution; Save wear and tear: Save costs, reduce the frequency of vehicle starts and stops, reduce wear and fuel consumption, and users can enjoy toll discounts; Improve efficiency: The passing efficiency of ETC lanes can theoretically be increased by 2-3 times or more, making traditional ETC updated, faster, and more high-tech. Compared to license plate payment, ETC technology is more mature and advantageous.

What are the signs of poor tire grip?

Tires with insufficient grip will make the car feel unstable while driving, and understeer may occur when cornering. For cars with poor grip, it is necessary to reduce speed when entering a corner to ensure that understeer does not occur. Drivers will feel that the car is difficult to control. Grip mainly depends on parameters such as tire tread pattern, tread depth, road surface conditions, and vehicle load. There are two ways to increase the friction between the tire and the ground. The first is to increase the friction coefficient of the road surface. The so-called "friction coefficient" refers to the road surface's ability to provide grip for the tire. The higher the friction coefficient, the greater the grip. Different road surfaces, such as asphalt, concrete, and gravel, have different friction coefficients and thus provide varying levels of grip for the tire. The second method is to increase the tire's own friction coefficient, which can be achieved by choosing softer tires. Softer tires provide stronger grip but wear out faster. To increase the tire's contact area with the road surface, the simplest method is to switch to wider tires. Another option is to use tires with fewer tread patterns, which can increase the actual contact area between the tire and the ground, but this may affect grip performance on wet or slippery surfaces. With a given contact area, the tire's potential can be fully realized through correct tire pressure and precise suspension tuning. The tire's contact area is always smaller when driving on a flat straight road compared to when stationary, and it decreases even further when driving on uneven roads or cornering due to vertical or lateral forces, sometimes even losing contact with the ground entirely. The ultimate goal of suspension improvement is to keep the tire in contact with the ground as much as possible, especially when cornering or driving on uneven surfaces.

What does 5w40 engine oil mean?

5w40 engine oil represents the following: w stands for winter, the preceding 5 indicates the lowest temperature at which the engine can start, and 40 represents the viscosity level, with higher numbers indicating higher viscosity. 5w40 engine oil is suitable for electronically fuel-injected gasoline engines equipped with crankcase ventilation devices and catalytic converters operating under various conditions. Engine oil serves to lubricate and reduce friction in the engine, assist in cooling, and provide sealing to prevent leaks. It consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary constituent of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and enhance the performance shortcomings of the base oil, imparting new characteristics, making them an essential part of the lubricant.
