Reversing uphill usually fails due to insufficient vehicle power or incorrect gear selection. Below is relevant information about reversing: 1. Definition: Reversing refers to the action of a motor vehicle moving backward. It also describes the situation when people "transfer" from one vehicle to another during travel. Reversing is more challenging than driving forward, primarily because visibility is somewhat limited. 2. Safety Measures: (1) If the rear of the car needs to move toward the right rear, turn the steering wheel to the right; conversely, turn it to the left, which is consistent with the steering operation when driving forward. (2) Don't focus solely on the rear while reversing. After ensuring rear safety, periodically check the side mirrors to be aware of the distance between obstacles and the vehicle body, and use the steering wheel to adjust the vehicle's position accordingly.

What is the difference between slot-type vents and louver-type vents?

Louver vents can automatically swing, while slot-type vents require manual adjustment. In automobiles, slot-type vents are more commonly used. Below are some precautions for using car air conditioning: 1. Using the heater in winter Generally, the warm air in car air conditioning comes from the heat dissipation of the car's radiator. After the car has been driven for a while, the radiator will heat up. At this point, you only need to select the fan speed without pressing the air conditioning button. In winter, when temperatures are low, the front and rear windows are prone to fogging up. Typically, vehicles come with a defogging function—direct air towards the front window, while the rear window has heating wires for defogging. If the windows fog up in winter, it is advisable to slow down and drive carefully to ensure safety. 2. Using the air conditioner in summer The recommended practice is to open the windows before turning on the air conditioning. After starting the car, wait for a while until the engine stabilizes before turning on the air conditioning.

Can the ETC be moved after being stuck on?

ETC cannot be moved once it is stuck on. Once the ETC is removed from the car's windshield, it cannot be used anymore and can only be reactivated by professionals. You can go to the original application point or the provincial highway ETC business office to reinstall and activate it, after which it can be used normally in the ETC dedicated lane. This is because there is a button on the back of the ETC. Once it is removed, the button will automatically pop out, and the information inside the ETC will be cleared, rendering the ETC unusable. Where can ETC be installed: For small vehicles such as cars and minivans, the OBU device should be installed in the upper middle part of the front windshield. For large vehicles such as trucks and buses, it should be installed in the middle lower part. ETC installation position requirements: the height should not be lower than 1.2 meters or higher than 2.5 meters; the installation angle N should be between 30º and 90º (the angle between the surface of the electronic tag and the horizontal plane).

Does a 2-year-old new car require an annual inspection?

New cars purchased 2 years ago do require an annual inspection. However, thanks to the benefits of the exemption policy, there is no need for an on-site vehicle inspection. You only need to bring the insurance policy to the vehicle management office every 2 years to get a new label. The following types of vehicles are not eligible for the 6-year exemption: 1. Vans and vehicles with 7 seats or more are not exempt from inspection. 2. Vehicles that were involved in accidents causing casualties within the exemption scope are not eligible for the exemption and must still undergo an on-site inspection every 2 years within 6 years as per the original regulations. 3. Vehicles that have not been registered for a long time after purchase are not eligible for the exemption. If a vehicle has not been registered for more than 4 years since its production date, it does not qualify for the exemption policy and must still undergo an on-site inspection within 6 years according to the original regulations.
