Stemming from the awareness of environmental protection and the Government’s interest in reducing emissions from vehicles, automotive manufacturers have been switching from using Euro 4 engines to Euro. 5. Euro 5 standard requires less pollutants in vehicle exhaust than pollutant levels from Euro 4 engines and has a roadmap to be applied from 2022 to target environmental protection as well as public health.

According to the Prime Minister’s Decision No. 49/2011 (the roadmap for applying emission standards to vehicles fitted with new manufactured, assembled and imported engines), from 1/1/2022, newly manufactured, assembled and imported vehicles and automobiles must meet Euro 5 emission standards to be allowed to circulate – This is considered an important policy. and effective in reducing environmental pollution and protecting people’s health. The application of Euro 5 standard to transport vehicles requires that vehicle engines have higher technology in control systems, sensors, fuel injection, ignition… compared to Euro 4 engines. In 2023, this policy will continue to be implemented according to the roadmap and contribute somewhat to reducing harmful emissions in the air.

What is the EURO 5 emission standard???

Euro emissions standards are about issuing regulations on the levels of emissions allowed to be emitted during the operation of vehicles, including particulate matter (PM), hydrocarbons (HC), nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon monoxide (CO).

In which, Euro 5 emission standard is the highest standard in the roadmap. Any country implementing this standard means continuing to tighten limits on particles emission limit from diesel engines. At the same time, all diesel vehicles are required to be equipped with particulate filters to meet these new requirements.

Moreover, Euro 5 also has very strict and specific regulations on quantity and weight limits of particles discharged to the outside. Along with that, the calculation of the volume of dust particles in the exhaust gas is also applied to the direct injection engine.

The implementation and application of Euro 5 emission standards in Vietnam will significantly contribute to eliminating vehicles that generate a lot of harmful emissions and pollute the air environment. At the same time, it is possible to produce or import new vehicles that run on cleaner fuels, helping to improve pollution and protect the environment.

If a coach bus is considered as a “body of human”, we could say that Vehicle maintenance is like to hit the doctor’s clinic for a checkup. If you have a fixed mindset that “It isn’t broke means it is fine at all”, you should change your mind. This carefree approach to preventive healthcare isn’t good for you, and ignoring your vehicle’s maintenance needs isn’t good for your vehicle.

The feeling of purchasing a new vehicle at the dealership is easy to bring us to a circumstance that we just enjoy the new vehicle smell and powerful drive and are not pay much attention to other things like changing the oil or checking the brakes. While these vehicles are built to perform for a long time, it’s not a lifetime run. There are some components that wear and tear over time.

Neglecting the maintenance procedure’s got the same meaning with the fact that you are ignoring the care for your vehicle. And the ramifications could be more serve than you think. Not providing your vehicle its regular checkups could result in a great deal of cost or diminishing safety, or both.

Listed below are some thing that you should not sleep, which could come from keeping up with the maintenance of your vehicle form the time you bring it home:

• Keep It Running More Efficiently – Vehicle engines age and become less powerful over the life of the vehicle. Including regular tune-ups as part of the regular maintenance will give mechanics the opportunity to see where problems are starting to form and repair engine parts before they can continue to deteriorate.
• Improve Fuel Efficiency – Fuel efficiency has become a top priority for most drivers who want to feel less of an impact at the pump and make a lower impact on the environment. A dirty fuel system and clogged air filters that aren’t changed can reduce your vehicle’s fuel-efficiency.
• Keep Warranty Coverage – Every new vehicle comes with a warranty and a number of requirements to keep it valid. Fail to maintain a documented service schedule and your warranty claims can be denied.
• Make It Safer – Today’s new vehicles are being made with more advanced safety technology to protect drivers and passengers in the vehicle, drivers of other vehicles, and pedestrians. Failing to keep vehicles maintained could lead to something as simple as a non-functioning signal light that leads to an accident or a brake failure that leads to a devastating event.

• To Keep You from Getting Stranded – Letting maintenance go can end up causing a complete breakdown and leaving you stranded on the side of the road. A service appointment will take a lot less time and money, and it won’t prevent you from getting where you need to be.

Maintaining your vehicle’s maintenance should not only be a matter of when or where. From that meaning, King Long Viet Nam bring to you a high quality maintenance service that help you vehicles are always on the right track and under care. You can easily make an appointment online and become a member so that you can conveniently keep track of your maintenance appointments.

The strict disease control principles as well as the driver’s failure to understand the regulations lead to the fact that the time for testing, supporting driver’s test and issuing circulation permits is prolonged. A typical example is the “gateway” roads to two big cities, Hanoi and Hai Phong, where frequent congestion occurs.

Faced with that situation, the authorities of Hanoi and Hai Phong soon studied the instructions of the Ministry of Transport and the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam and changed the method of epidemic control such as: issuing passports through software, notification. extensively on medical requirements for drivers to actively drive tested, conduct probability checks, end-to-end checks. Particularly, Hai Phong city allows vehicles to go to the port and conduct inspection before entering the port.

Hanoi City also established a “green channel”, issuing identification cards to 21 vehicles; At the same time, through the Department of Transport of Ho Chi Minh City to issue QR codes for 1,117 vehicles going to Hanoi, priority logos for vehicles transporting perishable goods.

“Thanks to the timely implementation of solutions, until this afternoon, traffic at the gateways of the above localities did not appear to be prolonged congestion,” a representative of the Directorate for Roads informed.

According to the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam, currently, in addition to the announced national “green channel”, all the Departments of Transport have deployed the “green channel” in the inner province, connecting with the national green channel for cars. Cargo transport during the Covid-19 epidemic.

According to statistics on the system of the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam, as of 15:00 this afternoon, 2,845 vehicles have been granted first-class cards. Up to now, more than 3,400 vehicles have been issued in 50 localities.

“However, at present, transportation of goods to southern localities still faces some difficulties such as: negative test papers are valid within 72 hours. This time limit is quite short, making businesses and drivers passive, costing more in testing costs. Many localities only recognize test results by RT-PCR method.

In addition, there are currently no specific guidelines on driving as a special subject who is not subject to mandatory medical isolation after returning from epidemic areas. This leads to many localities that have not yet applied Directive 16, which still requires drivers returning from epidemic areas to undergo medical isolation despite having negative test results,” a representative of the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam said.

Proposal to extend the validity of covid-19 test certificates for drivers

Extending validity of Covid-19 test certificates for drivers

At the meeting, Minister of Transport Nguyen Van The said that up to now, freight transport activities have been basically smooth.

However, in order to create more openness for freight transport, the units under the Ministry when issuing instructions must be specific and clear, ensuring high consistency when implementing. The Departments of Transport need to improve the initiative in exchanging and asking questions when they do not understand or are not clear. Provinces and cities must also strengthen exchange and sharing of experiences to unify the application of regulations in the same conditions of social distancing,” the minister said.

The Minister also assigned Deputy Minister Le Anh Tuan to work directly with the Ministry of Health tomorrow (July 22) to clarify the provisions of document 5753 on not checking the SARS-CoV test certificate. 2 for drivers of means of transport of goods that only circulate within the province or city that are implementing Directive No. 16; At the same time, continue to petition on extending the validity of Covid-19 test certificates for drivers.

“Localities also need to understand that the issuance of passports by QR Code only applies to vehicles going to and from the localities applying Directive 16, to avoid the issuance of incorrect regulations and incorrect subjects. adding procedures for businesses and drivers”, the Minister said and suggested that other localities, even though Directive 16 has not been applied, still have to actively develop a plan to organize traffic to always be in a state of readiness for businesses. transport industry, drivers know and obey.

According to Baogiaothong

After many cases of passenger cars moving when they did not meet the requirements of COVID-19 epidemic prevention, the Directorate for Roads of Vietnam urgently requested the Departments of Transport of provinces and cities to strengthen strict control measures to prevent and control the epidemic, minimizing the risk of spreading on transport business vehicles.

In addition to tracking, checking and extracting data from the cruise monitoring system to detect and promptly handle cases of non-compliance with epidemic prevention and control measures, the Directorate for Roads also requires businesses to The industry has installed a camera to monitor images on the vehicle to promptly remind and correct violations.

In particular, the “detection of people without masks” integrated on the camera is one of the effective applications to warn bus staff in time about cases of passengers not wearing masks, thereby reducing reduce the risk of disease transmission. This is also considered one of the measures that are assessed as “not too costly in terms of cost”.

On June 30, 2021, the Ministry of Industry and Trade published a report on the situation of the automobile industry and proposed solutions to find a way. This report has pointed out two bottlenecks of Vietnam’s automobile industry today.

According to the ministry, the market capacity and the price difference between domestically produced cars and fully imported cars are the 2 biggest bottlenecks and challenges facing the auto industry in our country.

Currently, the size of Vietnam’s auto market is only 1/3 of Thailand’s and ¼ of Indonesia’s.

The report also showed that the market is small, fragmented by many assemblers and many different models, making it difficult for manufacturing companies (both auto and spare parts) to invest in large-scale production development.

On the other hand, the current GDP per capita of Vietnam is not enough for the majority of people to own cars as well as to promote the domestic automobile industry to develop and generate profits.

The weak traffic infrastructure (mainly due to poor traffic organization) has also significantly affected the market demand, making the economy’s demand for cars not able to grow up.

In addition, to market bottlenecks, currently the cost of producing domestic cars is 10-20% higher than that of other countries in the region, making the cost of domestically produced cars suffer many disadvantages compared to imported CBUs from ASEAN.

Components and spare parts for automobile production and assembly are mostly imported from abroad – incur additional costs of packaging, transportation, storage, insurance, etc., thereby affecting the cost of the car locally assembled vehicles solution to create a market

According to the Ministry of Industry and Trade, solutions to remove the aforementioned bottlenecks will include:

There are reasonable measures to ensure the transparent and healthy development of the domestic automobile market through technical barriers and measures to combat commercial fraud.

Ensure equal competition between imported and domestically produced vehicles in terms of product quality control.

In addition, it is possible to consider and consider a number of other solutions to develop the market such as preferential loans to buy domestic cars; review taxes and fees related to automobiles throughout the value chain to adjust in the direction of facilitation of automobile production and consumption, and healthy development of the domestic automobile market.

The Ministry of Transport has just sent a written response to the Vietnam Automobile Transport Association and the Three Regions Taxi Association proposing policies to support transport business activities affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

For the proposal to have appropriate policies and mechanisms for BOT investors to reduce road use fees according to Circular No. 112/2020 of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Transport said, Circular No. 112/2020 of the Ministry of Finance The main regulations on road use fees (tolls collected per vehicle) for transport business cars of transport enterprises, transport business cooperatives, and transport business households. The collection of road service fees is not subject to the provisions of Circular No. 112/2020, so investors are not required to follow the guidance of this Circular.

According to Baogiaothong

Air conditioner on a passenger vehicle is one of the really basic equipment that comes with the bus. However, not all drivers know how to use the air conditioner smartly and safely. Here are some notes to help passenger vehicle drivers use the air conditioner effectively.

Parking at a cool space

To shorten the cooling time of the air conditioner inside the coach bus, drivers should try to find a covered place to park the car. If you cannot find somewhere like that, the ideal location for parking will be under large shady trees. In case of stopping at a vacant lot, the driver should prepare and cover the vehicle with large tarpaulins or specialized sunshades. Not only keep the car cool, these covers also help to make the car’s paint color more durable, while also reducing the possibility that sunlight can affect the quality of the bus’s interior. If possible (taking into account security factors), the driver can leave the window glass ajar by 1-2 cm to allow the air in the car to circulate.

Push the hot air out with the fan

Parking 29-seat buses and 35-seat coaches outdoors for long periods of time in the mid-40 Celsius degree of summer will cause the temperature inside the vehicle to rise and can be as high as outdoor.

To reduce the heat for the passengers, before the passengers get on, as soon as the bus start moving, it is necessary to push the hot air out of the vehicle immediately by start engine, open the door and turn on the fans. This not only helps the air inside be less stuffy, but also avoids some risk of disease for the occupants, because the plastic inside the car is “burned” under high temperature to easily produce benzene – a toxin that is easily carcinogenic. After the air is cooler compared to the outside temperature, the driver then closes the car door. This helps to let the hot air inside the system be pushed out.

Set the right level of the fan

Although using fans to blow hot air out of the door before turning on the air conditioner is a great way to help the air in the car quickly cool down and be comfortable, but it does not mean that turning on the fan at the highest level will make the system of the air conditioner cool in the fastest way.

A study by Autocar.com showed that the air conditioning system achieved the coldest temperature at the average fan level instead of at the highest level. This is also easy to understand because the blower and the air conditioner are sharing the limited electricity power, if the fan is set to the highest level, the performance of the air conditioner is also reduced.

Do not set freeze level of air conditioner

Depending on the number of passengers in the vehicle, the driver should set an appropriate temperature that makes everyone feel comfortable. However, if the air inside is too cool, the gap of temperature difference between the outside and the inside will be too large. That easily cause thermal shock for passengers when getting in and out of the vehicle, especially the elderly, young children or people with medical problem related to blood pressure or heart disease. The recommended temperature level should be in the range of 25-27 degrees Celsius.

Turn off the air conditioning system before turning off the fan system

About 1-3 minutes before the end of the journey, the driver should turn off the air conditioning system on the vehicle, open the glass door slightly, but still maintain the fan system, take the outside air to gradually reduce the temperature difference.

This will not only avoid thermal shock for passengers but also increase the life of the air conditioning system and fan system.
