In China, cars are right-hand drive, meaning they drive on the right side of the road. This is somewhat related to the characteristics of the northern and southern hemispheres. Drivers with a Chinese driver's license cannot drive in the southern hemisphere because cars there are left-hand drive. More details are as follows: Detail one: Generally, cars that drive on the right side of the road have the steering wheel on the left, while cars that drive on the left side have the steering wheel on the right. Chinese cars are left-hand drive and drive on the right side of the road, whereas Japanese cars drive on the left side, so their steering wheels are on the right, making them right-hand drive. Detail two: If someone with a Chinese driver's license wants to drive abroad, they need to obtain a foreign driver's license. When purchasing imported vehicles, they should avoid buying those that have been converted from right-hand drive to left-hand drive, as this can lead to many issues later in the car's usage. Driving abroad without a foreign driver's license is illegal.

What is a radial tire?

Radial refers to a radial tire, also known as a "steel belt tire." Its international code is R, and it is not a brand. The radial tire was patented by Michelin in 1946. It consists of two or three layers of steel belts cross-placed and bonded to the cord body. The carcass cords of a radial tire run from one bead to the other, resembling the Earth's meridians, hence the name "radial tire." Most passenger car tires today are radial tires. Compared to bias-ply tires, radial tires offer numerous advantages, which is why they dominate the current tire market. Therefore, "Radial" does not refer to a specific brand. Advantages of radial tires: Larger contact area, better adhesion, less tread movement, and lower unit pressure on the road, resulting in lower rolling resistance and longer service life. Thicker tread with a sturdy belt layer, making it less prone to punctures. Less deformation during driving, which helps reduce fuel consumption. Fewer cord layers and thinner sidewalls provide greater radial elasticity, better cushioning performance, and higher load capacity. Excellent heat dissipation, suitable for high temperatures and high-speed driving. You can find the letter "R" on the sidewall of the tire, which stands for Radial, indicating that the tire has a radial structure. The first number, 195, represents the tire width in millimeters (195mm). The number 55 indicates the aspect ratio (50%), meaning the sidewall height is 50% of the width. The number 15 represents the rim diameter in inches (15 inches). The letters or symbols in between have specific meanings: "X" stands for high-pressure tires, "R" or "Z" denotes radial tires, and "-" indicates low-pressure tires. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and temperature extremes during driving. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing, traction, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance and flex resistance, along with low rolling resistance and heat generation. Tires directly contact the road and work with the vehicle's suspension to absorb shocks, ensuring a comfortable ride and smooth driving. They also provide good adhesion to the road, improving traction, braking, and off-road capability while bearing the vehicle's weight. Tire maintenance methods: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires regularly. Regularly balance the wheels to prevent high-frequency vibrations at high speeds, which can cause uneven tire wear. Rotate tires periodically. To ensure even wear, rotate tires every 5,000 kilometers. During daily use, pay attention to the following: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. As tires wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn smooth, it loses its water drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can also pose a risk of blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove stones stuck in the grooves. Park on flat ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, and their pressure may increase. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent excessive tread wear due to dragging on the road.

Does the VIN come before or after the vehicle rolls off the production line?

The VIN is assigned before the vehicle rolls off the production line. Functions of the VIN: Through permutations and combinations, the Vehicle Identification Number ensures no duplicate numbering occurs for the same vehicle model within 30 years, providing unique identification for each vehicle. Hence, it can be referred to as the "car ID card". VIN identification: Digits 1-3 represent the manufacturing location, brand, and type; digits 4-8 indicate vehicle characteristics; digits 9-11 show the check digit, model year, and assembly plant; digits 12-17 represent the sequential number, i.e., the last six digits of the VIN. Types of VIN: There are mainly two types of Vehicle Identification Numbers. The first follows the ISO 3779 standard adopted by the EU, while the second standard is primarily used in North America. The latter is more stringent than the first but remains mutually compatible.

What Type of Engine Oil Should Be Used During the Break-in Period of a Motorcycle?

During the break-in period, engine oil with lower viscosity is generally recommended, and it should have excellent anti-wear properties. Engine oil with lower viscosity offers better fluidity and cleaning performance, which helps more effectively in dissipating heat and removing fine debris generated during the break-in process. Anti-wear properties refer to the lubricant's ability to prevent metal wear caused by friction between metal parts. Better anti-wear properties help the engine "smoothly" pass through the break-in period. Break-in period taboos: Avoid emergency braking: Emergency braking not only shocks the braking system during the break-in period but also increases the impact load on the chassis and engine. It is best to avoid emergency braking within the first 300 kilometers of driving. Avoid overloading: If a new vehicle is operated at full load during the break-in period, it can cause damage to the components. Therefore, within the first 1000 kilometers of driving, the load should generally not exceed 75%-80% of the rated capacity. Avoid long-distance trips: Taking long-distance trips with a new vehicle during the break-in period increases the continuous working time of the engine, which can easily lead to component wear.
