Vehicles originally equipped with LED bulbs from the factory will not be fined, but retrofitting LED bulbs privately afterwards may result in fines. LED stands for light-emitting diode, which can directly convert electrical energy into light energy. LED lights have the advantages of small size and low energy consumption. When owners intend to install or modify their vehicles, they should consult relevant authorities to determine whether the modifications are legal or not. If the modifications are illegal, owners should refrain from making such changes to their vehicles.

I personally witnessed a friend getting pulled over and fined by traffic police for replacing his car bulbs with LED ones. He said the brightness improved immediately, making the drive look especially flashy, but within a few days, he was fined 200 yuan. The reason was simple: the original headlights were designed for halogen bulbs, and the LED bulbs had too concentrated light points, causing glare and affecting oncoming drivers' vision. This violated traffic regulations and counted as illegal modification. I remember the relevant regulations require light to be evenly distributed and prohibit arbitrary modifications. My advice is not to act blindly—first, get an evaluation at a professional repair shop or directly purchase LED bulbs with national certifications like the CCC mark to ensure safety and compliance. Safety comes first; the fine is a small matter, but an accident could be serious. Additionally, many factory-equipped cars now come with LED lights, so considering this when choosing a car can save a lot of hassle.

What date is used for the restoration of 12 points on a driver's license?

The restoration of 12 points on a driver's license is based on the date the license was issued, with a scoring cycle lasting 12 months. For example, if the license was issued on March 6, the scoring cycle will run until March 5 of the following year. At 24:00 on March 5, the points on the license will be reset, and a new scoring cycle will begin counting from March 5. If the accumulated penalty points within a scoring cycle do not reach 12, the scoring system will automatically reset the points from the previous cycle at the start of the next cycle. If the points reach 12, the license holder must attend a study session and pass the written test (or the road test if the license holder has accumulated 12 points twice consecutively within one scoring cycle) at the vehicle management office where the license was issued or where the violation occurred. Only after passing the test will the points be reset; otherwise, the license cannot be used normally.

How Long Does It Take for Car Paint to Dry Before Driving?

Under standard painting procedures, car paint can be touched after 2 hours, and the paint surface will reach 80% hardness after 24 hours. It takes 36 to 72 hours for the paint to fully dry, but the car can generally be driven after about 24 hours. Automotive paint is quite complex, consisting of four layers from the inside out: the electrocoat layer, primer layer, base coat (color layer), and clear coat. If the car has just been painted, avoid exposing the newly painted areas to water and dust. It's advisable not to drive in rainy weather, as fresh paint is still delicate and may develop watermarks that cannot be removed even by polishing. Sunlight exposure is acceptable, but be cautious to prevent contact with chemicals and grease on the newly painted surfaces.

How to Renew an Expired Vehicle License?

Vehicle license renewal process: 1. The renewal should be initiated three months in advance, i.e., within 90 days before the vehicle inspection is due; 2. For vehicles not exempt from inspection, the owner needs to bring the power of attorney, vehicle license, and compulsory traffic insurance policy to the local motor vehicle inspection station for inspection; 3. It is no longer necessary to apply for an inspection qualification mark. After passing the inspection, the vehicle license's auxiliary page will be directly endorsed. Note: The vehicle license itself does not have an expiration date. As long as the vehicle passes the inspection, it will continue to be endorsed as valid. Renewal essentially means getting the endorsement stamp. Although the vehicle license is long-term and does not expire, it still requires annual inspection and endorsement stamps. If the auxiliary page of the vehicle license is full of endorsement stamps, the owner must renew the license at the vehicle management office where the license plate was issued before the next annual inspection.
