Overloading checks are conducted at highway entry and exit ramps, especially on weekends and major holidays. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Penalties: Driving an operational passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by less than 20%, or driving other passenger vehicles with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by more than 20% will result in a 6-point penalty. Vehicles that are overloaded but less than 20% (such as buses or school buses) will also be penalized. Note that if a family car is overloaded by 20%, it will be penalized (for example, 6 people in a 5-seat car). 2. Points: Driving a passenger vehicle other than an operational passenger vehicle (excluding buses) or school bus with passengers exceeding the approved capacity by less than 20% will result in a 3-point penalty.

How long can the annual inspection be delayed?

Annual inspection time cannot be delayed, but it can be conducted in advance. The inspection schedule is determined based on the vehicle's initial registration date. According to relevant regulations, vehicle owners can apply for inspection and obtain the inspection compliance mark at the local vehicle management office up to three months before the expiration of the current inspection period. Small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles are exempt from on-site inspection for the first 6 years, requiring biennial checks. After 6 years, annual inspections are required. Operational passenger vehicles require annual inspections within the first 5 years, switching to semi-annual inspections thereafter. Trucks and large non-operational passenger vehicles need annual inspections for the first 10 years, followed by semi-annual inspections. All traffic violation fines must be cleared before the annual vehicle inspection.

What are the body dimensions of the Volkswagen Touareg?

The length, width, and height of the Volkswagen Touareg are 4878*1984*1686mm, which are official data. The length of the Volkswagen Touareg refers to the distance between two vertical planes perpendicular to the longitudinal symmetry plane of the vehicle and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the car; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the longitudinal symmetry plane of the vehicle and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the supporting plane of the vehicle. The Volkswagen Touareg is equipped with two engines, one is a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 3.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 2.0-liter turbocharged engine of the Volkswagen Touareg has a maximum power of 180kw and a maximum torque of 370Nm. The maximum power speed of this engine is 5000 to 6500 rpm, and the maximum torque speed is 1600 to 4300 rpm. This engine is equipped with hybrid injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and a cast iron cylinder block. It is paired with an 8AT transmission. The 3.0-liter turbocharged engine has a maximum power of 250kw and a maximum torque of 450Nm. This engine can output maximum power at 5300 to 6400 rpm and maximum torque at 1340 to 5300 rpm. This engine is equipped with direct injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is also paired with an 8AT transmission. The use of the 8AT transmission can improve the fuel economy and shift smoothness of the car. There are relevant national regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of the vehicle does not include the rearview mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. In other words, in the national standard, the significance of vehicle width data is to provide enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle width. Additionally, the national regulation stipulates that the total width of the vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.

What to Do If the Injured Party Refuses to Sign and the Traffic Police Keep Impounding the Vehicle?

Solution for the traffic police keeping the vehicle impounded due to the injured party refusing to sign: After the vehicle is impounded, the traffic police department will issue an accident liability determination report once they obtain the vehicle inspection report and clarify the cause of the accident. If the other party refuses to sign at this point, it will not affect the retrieval of the vehicle. The owner only needs to retrieve the vehicle within a certain period after the accident liability determination report is issued. According to regulations, for the purpose of collecting evidence, the traffic management department of the public security authority may impound the accident vehicle and the motor vehicle driving license and issue an administrative compulsory measure certificate. The ultimate purpose of collecting evidence is to determine the cause of the accident to better assign responsibility between the parties. Therefore, once the cause of the accident is determined, the traffic police department no longer has the legal right to continue impounding the vehicle and should release the impoundment and return the vehicle.

How to Identify the Production Month from the VIN?

The 10th digit of the VIN indicates the production year of the vehicle, but the specific production month cannot be determined from it. The production year may be represented by either a number or a letter, following a 30-year cycle. Note that the letter 'O' and the number '10' are not used in this coding system. The VIN, or Vehicle Identification Number, is a unique code assigned by the manufacturer to identify an individual vehicle. It consists of a 17-character alphanumeric sequence, also known as the 17-digit identification code, chassis number, or 17-digit number. Through its combination of characters, the VIN ensures that no two vehicles of the same model will have the same number within a 30-year period, providing a unique identifier for each vehicle. Hence, it is often referred to as the 'car's ID card'.

What to Do When All Driving License Points Are Deducted?

Handling methods when all driving license points are deducted: If a driving license accumulates 12 penalty points within a single scoring cycle, the holder must attend a seven-day educational course and retake the subject one test. The driving license will only be returned upon passing the test. For those who accumulate 24 penalty points, in addition to the subject one test, they must also pass the subject three test. For holders of Class A or B driving licenses, accumulating 12 penalty points in a scoring cycle will not only require attending the educational course and retaking the subject one test but also result in a downgrade of the driving license. If the driving license is still within the probationary period, it will be revoked. To drive again, the individual must reapply for a driving license, starting from scratch like a new learner, and pass all the required tests for the corresponding vehicle type before the vehicle management office will issue the license.

What does the green laser light on the highway mean?

Highway green laser lights are anti-fatigue laser lights used to remind drivers to pay attention to safety during night driving. These laser beams have a long projection distance, with a range of up to 2 kilometers, and are generally installed on straight road sections. The green laser is particularly noticeable at night and comes in two forms: constant light and strobe light, which can effectively stimulate the driver's brain and serve an anti-fatigue function. Green laser lights can alleviate visual fatigue caused by monotonous driving environments through light variations, and they are installed only after multiple on-site surveys and concentrated demonstrations. The green laser lights form a beam network in the air in the direction of oncoming traffic without obstructing the driver's view. Together with flashing lights and high-decibel alarms, they create a trinity of visual, auditory, and photoelectric warning functions, enhancing driving safety awareness, with particularly noticeable effects during night driving and in adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, and fog.
