You can change a tire by yourself on the highway, but it should be done in the emergency stopping lane with warning signs set up. Here are the procedures for handling emergencies on the highway: 1. When a vehicle breaks down and has to stop, immediately pull over to the right hard shoulder or emergency stopping lane, and turn on the hazard warning lights. If it's nighttime, also turn on the position lights and tail lights. 2. Set up a warning sign, commonly known as a triangle warning sign, which is usually stored in one of three places in the car: the trunk, the inside of the trunk lid, or under the trunk cover. 3. Take the warning sign, with the reflective side facing outward, walk in the direction of oncoming traffic, and place it 150 meters away in the corresponding lane. 4. Immediately evacuate all personnel to the outside of the right guardrail, then call the national unified highway emergency rescue number 12122 for assistance.

Is it better to register the car by yourself or let the 4S shop do it?

It is better to register the car by yourself. There are mainly the following situations for car registration: 1. Registering at the 4S shop: The 4S shop needs to arrange special personnel to register the car, and these services are not free, they all require costs. So while enjoying the convenience, you need to pay enough fees. Entrusting the 4S shop to handle the new car registration, you only need to submit the required documents to the 4S shop, and basically don’t have to worry about anything else, just wait quietly for the satisfactory result. 2. Registering by yourself: If you go to the vehicle management office to register by yourself, you have more freedom in choosing the license plate number, and you may choose a license plate number that you like more.

What are the effects of high RPM on a car?

The impacts of high RPM on a car are detailed as follows: 1. Damage to the engine from excessively high RPM: Overly high RPM can place significant strain on the engine due to overheating. 2. Impact on vehicle lifespan from high RPM: While operating at high RPM can ensure complete combustion and reduce carbon buildup, consistently driving or shifting gears at 3500-4000 RPM, where torque output is substantial, can subject various vehicle components (such as the engine, transmission, and tires) to excessive torque, thereby shortening their lifespan. 3. Effect on fuel consumption from high RPM: This leads to increased fuel usage, and higher speeds can compromise safety. If the vehicle exhibits a slight lurch forward when shifting gears at 3500-4000 RPM, it indicates that the torque output in this range is excessive. Adjusting the shift RPM downward can enhance driving efficiency and economy.
