License plates starting with 'Su' belong to Jiangsu Province. The license plate codes for Jiangsu Province are as follows: SuA for Nanjing, SuB for Wuxi, SuC for Xuzhou, SuD for Changzhou, SuE for Suzhou, SuF for Nantong, SuG for Lianyungang, SuH for Huai'an, SuJ for Yancheng, SuK for Yangzhou, SuL for Zhenjiang, SuM for Taizhou, SuN for Suqian. License plates, also known as vehicle registration plates, are mounted on the front and rear of vehicles, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration region, or other relevant information. Their main functions are: 1. Identifying the vehicle's region of registration through the license plate; 2. Tracing the vehicle's owner and registration details based on the license plate.

As a driver who has been on the road for years, I've noticed that license plates starting with 'Su' directly indicate vehicles from Jiangsu Province. This system is quite common in China, where the first Chinese character represents the province, and Jiangsu uses 'Su' as its abbreviation. Why is it arranged this way? Mainly for the convenience of traffic police management and vehicle owner identification. For example, when you see a license plate starting with 'Su' in another region, you can guess it might be from cities like Nanjing or Suzhou, since Jiangsu has over a dozen cities. The suffix letters on the license plate further specify the city, such as 'Su A' for Nanjing and 'Su B' for Wuxi. However, don't get it wrong—'Su' represents the entire province, not just a single city. Some people mistakenly think it only refers to Suzhou, which is incorrect. This coding system is quite practical, helping you quickly determine a vehicle's origin. For instance, when I encounter a 'Su' plate on the highway, I associate it with the Jiangsu region, especially when traveling—Nanjing's Imperial Palace or Suzhou's classical gardens are definitely worth a visit.

I'm fascinated by the fun in deciphering license plate codes, and I get excited whenever I see one starting with 'Su', which clearly indicates the vehicle is registered in Jiangsu Province. China's license plate design uses the first character to represent the province, with Jiangsu adopting its ancient abbreviation 'Su', similar to other provinces and cities like Beijing ('Jing') and Shanghai ('Hu'). This system originates from national standards to avoid confusion and simplifies daily identification—for instance, 'Su' followed by a letter: 'SuA' is Nanjing, 'SuE' is Suzhou, so you can guess the general area at a glance. What I find particularly interesting is how the 'Su' on the plate subtly reflects Jiangsu's culture, such as its water-town characteristics or historical sites. Every time I see such a car, I imagine if it might have come from the Qinhuai River or Taihu Lake, but remember not to confuse—'Su' isn't exclusive to Suzhou.

Based on my general knowledge, a license plate starting with 'Su' indicates that the vehicle belongs to Jiangsu Province, as the initial Chinese character on Chinese license plates represents the province, with Jiangsu abbreviated as 'Su'. Similar rules apply, such as 'Hu' for Shanghai and 'Jing' for Beijing, facilitating unified management. Jiangsu is divided into multiple cities, with the second letter of the license plate distinguishing specific locations. For example, 'SuA' represents Nanjing, and 'SuB' stands for Wuxi. This not only aids traffic law enforcement but also helps citizens quickly identify the origin of vehicles, making it very practical.

As a travel enthusiast, I find license plates with the character 'Su' particularly easy to identify, as they directly point to Jiangsu Province. In China's license plate system, the first character represents the province, with 'Su' being the abbreviation for Jiangsu, while cities are marked by suffix letters, such as Su A for Nanjing and Su E for Suzhou. This helps me in planning my trips—when I see a car with a 'Su' prefix, I wonder if it's from the gardens of Suzhou or the ancient walls of Nanjing, reminding me that Jiangsu is a destination rich in history. In fact, the original intent of the license plate design was to simplify management and reduce confusion, so 'Su' doesn't refer to a single city but to the entire province.

Should the AC be turned on in summer?

In summer, the AC should be turned on. Only when the AC is turned on will the air conditioning system start cooling, sending cold air into the car and achieving a cooling cycle inside the vehicle. The driver can turn off the AC switch when starting or accelerating rapidly, as the air conditioning compressor is driven by the engine and consumes part of the engine's power. Turning off the AC switch can prevent insufficient engine power. The car air conditioning system is not just about the compressor; it also includes components like the condenser, evaporator, and expansion valve. The compressor is one of the main components of the refrigeration system, responsible for compressing and transporting refrigerant vapor. The warm air is generated by the engine's heat and sent into the car through the air conditioning system, creating a heating cycle inside the vehicle to raise the internal temperature.

What is the warranty period for car wiper blades?

Car wiper blades are typically covered by a warranty of 6 months or 10,000 kilometers. There are generally two types of wipers: the traditional intermittent type, which is the most common and has three to four adjustable speed settings controlled by the driver based on rain intensity and visibility; and the rain-sensing type, mostly used in mid-to-high-end vehicle models. High-quality wiper blades feature heat resistance, cold resistance, acid and alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, perfect fit with the windshield, reduced motor load, low noise, strong water repellency, and soft material that prevents windshield scratches. Methods to extend the lifespan of wiper blades include: 1. Avoid dry wiping without using windshield washer fluid, as it can cause abnormal wear to the wiper rubber and damage the wiper motor; 2. If the windshield is excessively dirty, clean it with a dry cloth before using the wipers to remove debris.

Can a driver's license physical examination conducted in another location be uploaded online?

A driver's license physical examination conducted in another location can be uploaded online. The examination information is interconnected nationwide, allowing submission from different locations without the need for manual upload or import, as the system automatically synchronizes the data. Note that when applying for a driver's license renewal upon expiration via the Traffic Management 12123 platform, you must undergo a physical examination at a designated hospital. The hospital will upload the examination information before you can proceed with the relevant application. Online upload process for a driver's license physical examination conducted in another location: First, select the "Submit Driver's License Photo" option under the driver's license services section. Upload a compliant driver's license photo for the production of the new license. Detailed photo requirements can be found in the system prompts. After uploading the photo, staff will complete the review within the specified time frame. Then, select "Renew Expired Driver's License" to initiate the renewal application. Applicants must read the service instructions and declaration content, confirm personal information, fill in the mailing address, and enter the verification code to complete all steps. After processing the application, the newly issued driver's license will be mailed to the specified address within 3 working days. The applicable license production fee and mailing fee will be collected upon delivery. Driver's physical examination periods: C1 driver's license: C1 licenses do not require annual review. Generally, a physical examination is needed within 90 days before the license expires, followed by renewal procedures. A and B class driver's licenses: A and B licenses require annual reviews, including physical condition checks. If no points are deducted within a scoring cycle, the review may be waived, but a physical examination report must be submitted every two years.

What Causes Low Idle Speed in Motor Vehicles?

Low idle speed in motor vehicles may be caused by excessive carbon buildup in components such as the throttle body, idle air control valve, intake valves, intake manifold, combustion chamber, spark plugs, and fuel injectors. This carbon accumulation can block idle passages, causing the idle air control valve to stick or exceed its adjustment range, resulting in low idle speed, unstable idle, or engine stalling when releasing the throttle. Below are four common causes of unstable idle speed: 1. Intake manifold or valve leaks: When unauthorized air, fuel vapors, or exhaust gases enter the intake manifold, it leads to excessively rich or lean air-fuel mixtures, causing abnormal combustion. If the leak affects only specific cylinders, the engine may experience severe shaking, particularly during cold starts. Common causes include: loose intake manifold clamps or cracked hoses, leaking intake manifold gaskets, damaged intake manifolds or holes worn by other components, leaking O-rings on fuel injectors, disconnected or broken vacuum lines, excessive opening of the PCV valve, stuck-open charcoal canister valves, or faulty EGR valves. 2. Excessive carbon deposits in throttle body and intake passages: Carbon buildup in the throttle body and surrounding intake passages alters the air passage cross-section, preventing the ECU from precisely controlling idle airflow, resulting in improper combustion. Common causes include: oily or carbon-fouled throttle bodies, carbon deposits in intake passages near the throttle body, or contamination in idle stepper motors, duty cycle solenoids, and rotary valves. 3. Faulty idle air control components: Malfunctions in idle air control components lead to inaccurate idle air regulation. Common causes include: damaged or sticking throttle motors, faulty idle stepper motors, duty cycle solenoids, or rotary valves. 4. Incorrect air intake measurement: The ECU receives erroneous signals and issues incorrect commands, causing improper idle air control and abnormal combustion. This represents an indirect cause of unstable idle. Common causes include: faulty mass airflow sensors or their circuits, defective intake pressure sensors or their circuits, or poor ECU connector contact due to moisture ingress or internal ECU faults.

Can I Apply for a Replacement Driver's License on 12123 If It's Lost?

You cannot apply for a replacement driver's license on 12123 if it's lost. In case of a lost driver's license, you should visit the local vehicle management office (anywhere is acceptable). According to national regulations, if an motor vehicle driver's license is lost, the driver should apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued or any other vehicle management office outside the issuing area. When applying, you need to fill out an application form and submit the driver's identity proof along with a written statement declaring the loss of the driver's license. If the application meets the requirements, the vehicle management office will issue a replacement driver's license within one day. Materials required for driver's license replacement include: identity proof (the driver's identity proof), application form (motor vehicle driver's license application form), photos (four one-inch color front-facing photos with a white background and no hat), original and photocopy of identity proof (if applying through an agent, the agent's original and photocopy of identity proof are also required). In case of a lost motor vehicle driver's license: you should apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office where the license was originally issued or any other vehicle management office outside the issuing area. Brief introduction: A driver's license, also known as a "driving license," is a document issued by the government's transportation department to individuals who qualify to drive. It is usually a card. To obtain a driver's license, one must meet the minimum age requirement and pass a driving test. Regarding the issue of reporting the loss: There is no need to report the loss of a driver's license. You only need to promptly apply for a replacement at the vehicle management office. However, when applying for a replacement, you need to fill out a written statement declaring the loss of the motor vehicle driver's license, confirming that the license is indeed lost and stating that any improper consequences arising from the lost license in the future are unrelated to the vehicle owner. After the replacement is completed, the original driver's license, even if found, will be considered invalid.

What can be used to wash a car at home?

You can use dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, or car wash soap to wash your car at home. The specific details are as follows: Dishwashing liquid for car washing: The main ingredient of dishwashing liquid is primarily sulfonic acid, and most dishwashing liquids are alkaline products. Although some dishwashing liquids are neutral, long-term use can harm your hands, such as causing peeling. Laundry detergent for car washing: Due to its strong alkalinity, the pH value of laundry detergent far exceeds what car paint can tolerate. The suitable pH range for car paint is approximately 6.5-6.8, while the pH of laundry detergent generally exceeds 10. Additionally, laundry detergent often contains a large amount of inorganic salts, such as sodium silicate, soda ash, and anhydrous sodium sulfate, which often do not dissolve well and remain as particles in the liquid, potentially damaging the paint surface during washing and causing fine scratches. Car wash soap for car washing: The main cleaning ingredients in domestic car wash soaps are natural plant-derived surfactants. Additionally, car wash soap usually contains natural car wax and natural anti-static components for the car body. Car wash soap is generally neutral and will not harm your hands or the paint surface. Since it contains natural wax, it can give the car body a clean and shiny appearance and provide the paint surface with some elasticity, preventing minor sand particles from scratching the paint surface.
