A flat tire can be left overnight before repair. Methods to prevent flat tires: Tire aging: Replacing tires every 4 years is the most reliable. Many flat tire accidents are caused by not replacing aged tires promptly. Tires made of rubber have a usage cycle, and their elasticity and toughness significantly decrease after aging. The longer they are used, the higher the chance of a flat tire. According to official statements from tire manufacturers, most tires have a lifespan of about 2 years or 60,000-80,000 kilometers. Damage caused by external forces: Damage from external forces requires regular inspection of tire appearance. Besides normal rolling wear, some damage is caused by other external factors. In crowded cities, parking sometimes requires driving over curbs, and in poor suburban road conditions, running over small stones can cause localized excessive wear on tires. These are often unavoidable occurrences.

Why Is the Front Passenger Seat the Most Dangerous?

In China, vehicles are left-hand drive with right-hand traffic, placing the front passenger seat on the right side. In the event of a collision, the driver instinctively maneuvers to protect themselves, often resulting in the front passenger seat bearing the brunt of the impact and causing injuries to the passenger. In a head-on collision, occupants in the front seats are clearly at the highest risk—children are not allowed to sit in the front due to the extreme danger. Additional information: Comparatively, the rear seats are safer. From a spatial perspective, the rear seats offer the largest buffer zone. If seated in the rear and wearing a seatbelt, the likelihood of injury or fatality in common accidents is significantly lower.

Where to Position the Jack on a Mercedes-Benz?

The jack position on a Mercedes-Benz is generally located about 10-20 centimeters away from the tire. Here are relevant details: 1. Chassis Cover Plate: Never place the jack directly under the chassis cover plate or the lower control arm of the suspension. Incorrect jack usage or improper support points can easily cause damage to the vehicle. 2. Hard Surface: The correct method is to park the vehicle securely, preferably on a level road surface, engage the parking brake, shift automatic transmission vehicles into P gear, and ensure the ground supporting the jack is also a hard surface. 3. Slippage: If the ground is soft, such as sand, grass, or mud, it is advisable to place a hard wooden board or stone slab under the jack to prevent sinking and slipping.
