The far-right lane with yellow dashed lines can be used. Yellow dashed lines are the standard marking method for dedicated lanes. If white lines were used, vehicles would not be allowed to enter the lane during other time periods. Yellow dashed lines are used to distinguish lanes in different directions and are typically set up on narrower road surfaces. Vehicles can cross yellow dashed lines to overtake or make U-turns, but safety must be ensured. Whether it's a single yellow line or double yellow lines, as long as it's a solid line, crossing is strictly prohibited. If it's a dashed line, overtaking or making U-turns is allowed under safe conditions. Single yellow lines are generally used on roads with four or fewer lanes in both directions, including bicycle lanes. If there are double lines, one solid and one dashed, vehicles on the side with the dashed line can temporarily cross, such as for overtaking or turning. Yellow dashed lines are mostly found in special sections, such as BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) lanes, serving as a warning for special road segments to alert drivers. In two-way roads, yellow dashed lines indicate that U-turns or lane changes in emergencies are allowed, while yellow solid lines must not be crossed.

Once while driving around the city, I noticed yellow dashed lines in the far-right lane and hesitated whether I could drive there. After checking traffic regulations, I learned that yellow dashed lines usually indicate dedicated lanes for buses or specific vehicles, and regular private cars aren't allowed to enter casually. Otherwise, you might get caught by cameras and fined, typically between 200 to 500 yuan. Occupying such lanes not only easily blocks buses but also increases risks. I once had a friend who accidentally drove in a yellow dashed lane, resulting in a ticket and points deducted, affecting their driving record. So, unless there's a special situation like emergency avoidance, it's best not to take the risk. Safety comes first on the road—always check the signs before driving and follow the rules to avoid trouble.

As a new driver, I was completely confused when I encountered the yellow dashed line on the far right lane of the highway, unsure if I could drive on it. My instructor had previously reminded me that this type of yellow dashed line indicates a time-restricted dedicated lane, such as one reserved for buses or taxis during rush hours in the morning and evening. If regular vehicles use it, they might face hefty fines and disrupt traffic order. Since then, I've been extra careful, making it a habit to pay close attention to road signs and markings. In fact, there are other similar markings to distinguish: white dashed lines allow normal passage, while solid yellow lines absolutely prohibit crossing—remembering them by comparison makes it easier. Over time, I've realized that paying attention to these small details can save a lot of trouble, especially in avoiding traffic jams or accidents.

What to Do When the Manual Gear Shift Lever Has Excessive Play?

Manual gear shift lever has excessive play solution is: 1. If the gap between the shift lever and surrounding rubber is too large, you can add a nylon sleeve in the original position to reduce the gap to normal range; 2. If the excessive shift play is caused by severe wear of the handle ball head, first replace the entire handle shift mechanism, then adjust the length of the gear shift cable and shift cable. The shift lever, also known as the operating lever, is used in the car transmission, its main function is to support the car's gear shifting. The shift lever is a rod component, the five-speed shift lever generally integrates the reverse gear function, and the shift fork and shift shaft fork need to be installed on the shift lever to achieve its functional combination.

What Causes the Deafening Resonance Sound Inside a Car Cabin?

The causes of deafening resonance sound inside a car cabin include: 1. Some enclosed spaces within the cabin form resonant cavities at specific fixed frequencies, which can cause resonance phenomena at certain frequency points; 2. Certain panels in the vehicle have special resonance points, such as the roof steel plate and front/rear door panels. Due to their thin steel material, relatively large surface area, and particular shapes, they may form resonance points at specific frequencies; 3. Loose installation of certain items in the cabin, such as audio systems. Generally, noises in the cabin can be categorized into various types, including mechanical noise, tire noise, and wind noise. Additionally, noise within the limited space of a vehicle consists of both direct noise and reflected noise. Sound absorption involves using special passive materials to alter the direction of sound waves and absorb their energy. Managing resonance noise in vehicles primarily targets mechanical sounds in the engine compartment and rear-end resonance noise. Proper arrangement of sound-absorbing materials can effectively reduce the reflection of sound energy, achieving the purpose of sound absorption and noise reduction.

Is Coolant Overflow Related to the Thermostat?

Coolant overflow is not related to the thermostat. It is generally associated with blockages or poor flow in the upper water chamber of the radiator or the return hose from the upper part of the thermostat to the expansion tank. This happens because the coolant in the lower water chamber of the radiator and the water pump inlet pipe is in a negative pressure state. If the throttle is suddenly released or the engine is shut down, the water pump's efficiency decreases or stops working. There are two scenarios where the car does not overheat but the coolant reservoir overflows: 1. Coolant overflow occurs when the accelerator is pressed hard. This is mainly due to large gaps or cracks in the wet cylinder liners or cylinder head. During engine operation, the pressure of compressed air or combustion gases in the cylinders exceeds the pressure of the coolant in the cooling passages, allowing these combustible gases to enter the engine's cooling passages through the gaps, resulting in coolant overflow from the reservoir. 2. No air is present in the coolant during engine operation. Whether the coolant temperature is high or low, pressing the accelerator does not cause coolant to spray out from the filler cap, but releasing the accelerator causes coolant to spray out from the filler cap.

How to Solve Rearview Mirror Vibration?

There are two solutions for rearview mirror vibration: 1. Center rearview mirror: Adjust the left and right positions so that the left edge of the mirror just cuts off your right ear in the reflection, and adjust the up and down positions to place the distant horizon at the center of the mirror. 2. Adjust the side rearview mirrors: For the left mirror, position the distant horizon at the center for up and down adjustment, and adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies one-quarter of the mirror. For the right mirror, when adjusting the up and down positions, ensure a larger ground area, about two-thirds of the mirror, and similarly adjust the left and right positions so that the car body occupies one-quarter of the area.
