Changing lanes without using turn signals is a traffic violation that will result in a 1-point deduction. Here are the relevant details: 1. Enforcement: Forgetting to use turn signals can be captured by traffic cameras. Traffic management authorities have increasingly sophisticated monitoring methods for road traffic. Even actions like not wearing a seatbelt or making phone calls while driving can be detected, let alone the violation of not using turn signals when changing lanes. 2. Precautions: However, the habit of using turn signals must be cultivated. Nowadays, vehicles are usually equipped with dash cams, which record incidents like rear-end collisions or other accidents. If an accident occurs due to the driver's failure to use turn signals, there is a high probability that the driver will bear primary or full responsibility for the accident.

Is driving at 132 km/h on a road with a 120 km/h speed limit considered speeding?

Driving at 132 km/h on a road with a 120 km/h speed limit is considered speeding. Relevant penalties for speeding: According to regulations, motor vehicles violating speed limits on roads will face corresponding penalties. Exceeding the limit by less than 10% results in a warning, 20-50% leads to 6 penalty points, and exceeding by 50% or more results in 12 penalty points. Legal provisions regarding speeding: Article 42 of the Road Traffic Law states that motor vehicles on roads must not exceed the maximum speed indicated by speed limit signs. On roads without speed limit signs, drivers should maintain safe speeds. During nighttime driving, on hazardous road sections, or under adverse weather conditions such as sandstorms, hail, rain, snow, fog, or icy roads, drivers should reduce their speed.

What is the normal tire pressure for a small car in kPa?

The normal tire pressure for a small car should be inflated to 220 kPa to ensure the vehicle's designed performance. Different cars may have slightly varying designed tire pressures. 220 kPa stands for 220 kilopascals, where kPa refers to kilopascals, a unit of pressure. Tire pressure denotes the air pressure inside the tires, essentially the 'blood pressure' of a car. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the car's performance and power, as it is an indicator of the vehicle's load capacity. The load capacity of a car depends on the level of tire pressure. Tires are circular, elastic rubber products mounted on metal rims, designed to support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, maintain contact with the road surface, and ensure the driving performance of the vehicle.

Can Mainland Vehicles Cross the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge?

Mainland vehicles require relevant permits to cross the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. Currently, apart from Hong Kong-registered single-plate vehicles, Guangdong-Hong Kong dual-plate vehicles, and Guangdong-Macao dual-plate vehicles, other mainland vehicles can only enter Hong Kong and Macao by applying for a one-time private car quota. Before the bridge opened, approximately 10,000 Hong Kong dual-plate private cars and 1,000 mainland private car quotas were issued. The following types of vehicles are allowed on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge: 1. Cross-border buses: In the first year of the bridge's operation, a total of 200 cross-border bus quotas were allocated, all of which have now been issued. There are also specific regulations for cross-border buses, which are not allowed to pick up new passengers within the bridge port area. 2. Shuttle buses: There are no quota restrictions for shuttle buses. The operating schedule for shuttle buses is as follows: during peak hours, they run every 5 minutes; during off-peak hours, every 10-15 minutes; and late at night, every 15-30 minutes. 3. Cross-border taxis: There are 250 cross-border taxi quotas for Hong Kong and Macao, with each quota allocated to one cross-border taxi. There are no restrictions on the number of trips for cross-border taxis. 4. Freight vehicles: In the early stages of the bridge's operation, Guangdong-Hong Kong cross-border trucks can pass through the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge without formalities, and there are no specific restrictions on quotas.

What Are the Maintenance Methods for Car Batteries?

Maintenance methods for car batteries are as follows: 1. Turn off all lights before shutting down the engine: Some older models do not support automatic power-off after shutdown, so you need to manually turn off the headlights and interior reading lights before shutting down the engine. If you need to find something in the car or require lighting, you can use a mobile phone or flashlight for illumination, avoiding the situation where you forget to turn off the reading light, leading to battery power loss. 2. Turn off the air conditioning and audio system before shutting down the engine: The air conditioning system involves the compressor and blower, and the audio system is also a high-power electrical device. If not turned off before shutting down the engine, they will automatically start the next time the car is started, placing a heavy burden on the battery and causing damage. This is especially true for music enthusiasts who have modified their car's audio system, as the usual power consumption increases, and the impact on the battery during startup is even greater. Therefore, whether it's a temporary stop or a long-term parking, always turn off the air conditioning and audio system before shutting down the engine. 3. Avoid leaving the vehicle parked for long periods: The battery installed in the car will self-discharge during prolonged parking. Many car owners find it difficult to start the car or even find the battery completely dead after returning from a business trip or vacation. Therefore, it's best to drive the car at least once a week, with a trip duration of at least 20 minutes, to facilitate charging the battery while the vehicle is in motion. 4. Close the windows before shutting down the engine: The switches for the car's windows and sunroof are powered by the battery, so it's best to close all windows before shutting down the engine, rather than after shutting down or even using the long-press lock button method to close the windows after leaving the car.
