Ji A license plate is from Shijiazhuang, Hebei. The license plate codes for various cities in Hebei Province are as follows: Ji A is Shijiazhuang City, Ji B is Tangshan City, Ji C is Qinhuangdao City, Ji D is Handan City, Ji E is Xingtai City, Ji F is Baoding City, Ji G is Zhangjiakou City, Ji H is Chengde City, Ji J is Cangzhou City, Ji R is Langfang City, Ji T is Hengshui City. The vehicle registration agency code consists of 2 characters, which are a combination of a Chinese character and an English letter. The Chinese character is the abbreviation of the province, autonomous region, or municipality directly under the central government, and the English letter is the code of the vehicle management office. For car license plates, the vehicle registration agency code is located in the middle at the top of the plate, with the Chinese character and English letter arranged horizontally. The license plate number consists of 5 characters, which can be Arabic numerals or a combination of Arabic numerals and English letters. There are 10 Arabic numerals from 0 to 9 and 26 English letters from A to Z.

I've been driving trucks for 30 years, traveling all over the country. The license plate starting with 'JiA' is from Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province. This is a strict rule of license plate coding: 'Ji' represents Hebei, and 'A' stands for the provincial capital. I remember once on a national highway, a car broke down with a 'JiA' plate. The owner said he was from Shijiazhuang, and after talking, I helped him contact a nearby repair shop. The system is well-designed, with letters starting from A in order, such as 'JiB' for Tangshan and 'JiC' for Qinhuangdao, making it easy to identify the vehicle's origin. For veteran drivers like me, license plates are not just symbols; they also help determine regional connections in emergencies. Knowing these details can enhance driving safety.

Back when I was studying geography, my teacher taught us the rules of license plates, which helped me remember that Ji-A is the plate for Shijiazhuang, Hebei. The abbreviation of the province followed by a letter represents the city, with 'A' standing for the provincial capital, so Ji-A is Shijiazhuang. Nowadays, with map apps, you can just enter the plate number to find out its origin, like Ji-B for Tangshan. When I see a Ji-A car on the road, I know it's from Shijiazhuang, which is pretty cool. I've also found this knowledge quite handy during self-guided tours.

How many points are deducted for making a U-turn over double solid yellow lines?

According to Article 26 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, violators who make a U-turn over double solid yellow lines will be fined 200 yuan and receive 3 demerit points. Generally, on long roads, solid white lines are usually present in the middle section or before intersections. If there are yellow dashed lines or white dashed lines, U-turns are permitted. However, U-turns are strictly prohibited over any solid lines, so drivers should carefully observe before attempting a U-turn. Permissible U-turn situations: U-turn allowed when intersection has U-turn signs: If there is a clear U-turn sign at the intersection, U-turns are permitted. If there is a U-turn traffic light, drivers must follow its instructions. In the absence of such signals, U-turns may be made provided they do not interfere with other vehicles or pedestrians. U-turn allowed when intersection has no explicit prohibition signs: U-turns are permitted at intersections without explicit "No U-turn" or "No Left Turn" signs, and where the center line is not solid. The term "no explicit prohibition" means that as long as there are no "No U-turn" signs, "No Left Turn" signs, or solid center lines, U-turns can be safely executed. U-turns allowed over yellow grid lines: Yellow grid lines are no-stopping zones typically marked at intersections prone to congestion due to temporary parking, important institution entrances, and other necessary locations. Stopping on these grids (including waiting at traffic lights) constitutes a violation. Although vehicles cannot stop in yellow grid zones, U-turns are permitted there. Unless there is a central barrier, yellow grid lines are equivalent to "U-turn permitted" areas. Intersections with U-turn traffic lights: This is straightforward—if a U-turn traffic light exists, drivers must wait for the green light to proceed with the U-turn. When "No Left Turn" and "U-turn Permitted" signs coexist: U-turns are allowed even if left turns are prohibited. Note that "No U-turn" does not necessarily mean "No Left Turn." Precautions when making U-turns at intersections: Observe road markings: U-turns are strictly prohibited over solid lines under any circumstances. Drivers should continue forward to find a suitable U-turn spot. If a "No Left Turn" sign is present, U-turns are also prohibited at that intersection, even if there is no explicit "No U-turn" sign, because U-turns inherently involve left-turning movements. U-turns must be made from the innermost left-turn lane. Attempting a U-turn from the second left-turn lane is not permitted. U-turning vehicles must yield to through traffic and proceed only when it does not disrupt the normal flow of straight-moving vehicles, otherwise they will bear full responsibility for any accidents. Near intersection stop lines, lanes typically have guiding arrows. Not all leftmost lanes have left-turn arrows—some may have straight arrows instead. Even without explicit "No U-turn" signs, U-turns are prohibited in such lanes. U-turns must not be executed on pedestrian crosswalks, as this constitutes a traffic violation.

How to Solve the Strong Odor in Tucson?

Park the car in a safe open area, then open all doors and windows under the sun. After continuous exposure to sunlight for 2-3 days, most of the odors inside the car can be removed. The remaining odors can be eliminated by ensuring proper ventilation during daily driving. This is because sunlight exposure generates high temperatures inside the car, which activates harmful gases, allowing them to dissipate through the open windows and doors.

How to Use Lights When Meeting Another Car at Night?

When meeting another car at night, you must turn on the low beam. If you were previously using the high beam, be sure to switch back to the low beam in advance. When meeting another car, quickly switching between high and low beams can alert the other driver.
