Following a large vehicle and running a red light due to inability to see the signal will result in being caught. Typically, you will receive a traffic violation notice within one or two days, or you can check online yourself. It is advised that drivers not only prioritize safety but also avoid violations such as running red lights, as such actions not only endanger their own safety but also that of others. Below is an introduction to traffic signals: The function of traffic signals: Traffic signals are lights that direct traffic, usually consisting of red, green, and yellow lights. A red light indicates prohibition of passage, a green light indicates permission to proceed, and a yellow light serves as a warning. Classification of traffic signals: Traffic signals are categorized into motor vehicle signals, non-motor vehicle signals, pedestrian crossing signals, directional indicator lights (arrow signals), lane signals, flashing warning signals, and railway crossing signals.

Is It Necessary to Buy Auto Theft Insurance?

Comprehensive auto theft insurance should be decided based on personal needs and the local security situation. If the local security is good and vehicle theft cases are rare, you may choose not to purchase it. Below is more relevant information: 1. Theft insurance compensates the policyholder based on the insurance amount or the actual value of the vehicle at the time of the incident, three months after the vehicle is stolen. 2. If the insured vehicle is stolen and reported to the public security authorities, but not recovered within three months, the insurance liability applies; if the vehicle is recovered within three months but found damaged or with missing parts or accessories, such losses caused by the theft are also covered by the insurance. 3. If the stolen vehicle is recovered by the public security authorities after the insurance company has paid the compensation, the vehicle can be returned to the policyholder, the subrogation form can be revoked, and the corresponding compensation can be recovered. If the policyholder does not wish to reclaim the original vehicle, the ownership of the vehicle will belong to the insurance company.

Why is the radiator still bubbling after replacing the cylinder gasket?

There are several reasons why the radiator still bubbles after replacing the cylinder gasket: 1. Common issues include engine cylinder gasket burn-out and compressor air leakage. A burned-out cylinder gasket can severely deteriorate the engine's working condition, rendering it inoperable and potentially damaging related components or parts. 2. During the engine's compression and power strokes, the upper space of the piston must remain completely sealed to prevent air leakage. If the cylinder head leaks, the compressed high-pressure gas can escape into the cylinder head bolt holes or leak from the joint surface between the cylinder head and the engine block. The leakage site will show light yellow foam, and severe leakage may produce a "hissing" sound, sometimes accompanied by water or oil leakage. Upon disassembly and inspection, significant carbon deposits can be observed on the corresponding cylinder head plane and nearby cylinder head bolt holes. If the engine cylinder communicates with the cooling water jacket or oil passage, yellow-black oil foam may float on the surface of the coolant in the radiator, or water may be visibly present in the oil pan. In severe cases, these leakage phenomena can cause water or oil to appear in the exhaust.

What Should Novice Drivers Pay Attention to During the Probationary Period?

Here are the key points novice drivers should pay attention to during the probationary period: 1. Driving alone on highways is prohibited during the probationary period: According to Article 65, Paragraph 2 of the revised "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Order No. 123 of the Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China), drivers in the probationary period must be accompanied by a licensed driver with at least three years of experience holding the same or higher-level driving license when driving on highways. The accompanying driver should sit in the front passenger seat to provide guidance. Violators will be fined 200 yuan. 2. Displaying a probationary sign is mandatory: Article 58 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" stipulates that failure to display the probationary sign as required may result in a fine of up to 200 yuan. Therefore, even when borrowing or renting a car during the probationary period, the probationary sign must be displayed. 3. Accumulating 12 penalty points requires retaking the test: For Class C driving licenses, accumulating 12 penalty points during the probationary period will result in the revocation of the license. 4. Driving special vehicles is prohibited: Article 22, Paragraph 3 of the "Implementation Regulations of the Road Traffic Safety Law" states that drivers in the probationary period are not allowed to drive buses, commercial passenger vehicles, taxis, police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, engineering rescue vehicles, or vehicles carrying explosives, flammable and explosive chemicals, highly toxic or radioactive materials. Additionally, they are not permitted to tow trailers.

What is the function of the shark fin on the back of a car?

Here is an introduction to the functions of the shark fin on a car: 1. The shark fin has a radio reception function, ensuring normal sound signal reception even at high speeds, allowing the driver to listen to the radio normally. 2. The shark fin is used to receive GPS signals. Many cars come with built-in navigation, and the shark fin's role is to receive GPS signals for the proper use of the navigation system. 3. The shark fin is used to receive GSM signals. The quality of phone calls in high-speed cars is closely related to the function of this shark fin. Including system upgrades and network services, all rely on this shark fin to enhance signal reception and transmission. 4. The shark fin has the function of discharging static electricity. In dry winters, the car's precision instruments need to release static electricity, and the shark fin helps discharge it, providing a protective effect. 5. Another function of the shark fin is to reduce drag and wind noise. The previous long antennas had significant wind resistance, but after replacing them with shark fins, both drag and wind noise are greatly reduced.

Why does the car air conditioning only cool when accelerating?

The following are the possible reasons why the car air conditioning only cools when accelerating: 1. Insufficient battery voltage: The car air conditioning requires electricity. If the voltage is insufficient, it won't cool properly. When accelerating, the engine generates more electricity to power the battery, allowing the air conditioning to function normally. 2. Compressor operation status: If the compressor belt slips, it affects power transmission, causing insufficient pressure at low speeds; internal component damage or abnormal noises in the compressor due to wear can prevent effective compression; a slipping compressor clutch can also lead to insufficient compression pressure. 3. Condenser and fan condition: Severe blockage of the condenser radiator reduces its efficiency at low speeds; check if the condenser fan is faulty - abnormal noises or poor motor operation can result in insufficient airflow at low speeds. 4. Refrigerant level inspection: Check the observation window for excessive bubbles, indicating insufficient refrigerant; if no bubbles are visible after cooling, it means too much refrigerant has been added; inspect high and low-pressure pipes and connections for leaks, which require repair or replacement if found.
