A small car with a flat front tire should not be driven. Symptoms of a flat tire: The steering wheel becomes heavy: The increased contact area between the tire and the road results in greater friction, making it harder to steer and causing the steering wheel to feel heavier; Vehicle imbalance: If a tire is flat, you can clearly feel the car tilting to one side; Reduced speed: The car's speed noticeably decreases, and acceleration becomes more difficult than usual; Unusual noises: A flat tire will produce a rhythmic thumping sound while driving. How to handle a flat tire: If only one tire is flat, you can choose to replace it with the spare tire and then visit a repair shop. If you have tire sealant in the car, you can use it to temporarily fix the tire. If there is no spare tire, the best solution is to call for roadside assistance to arrange a tow truck or request mobile tire repair services.

What Lights to Use in Snowy Weather?

You should turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and rear position lights. Here are some precautions for driving in snowy weather: 1. Slow down and drive carefully: Due to the slippery road conditions after snowfall, the car's traction is only one-sixth of that on normal roads. Therefore, it is essential to slow down. Otherwise, sudden deceleration, acceleration, turning, or braking can easily lead to skidding. 2. Replace with antifreeze windshield washer fluid. In snowy weather, you often need to clean the windshield, so it is recommended to use antifreeze windshield washer fluid in winter. 3. Check tire pressure regularly. According to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, tire pressure tends to be generally lower in snowy weather, so it is important to check the tire pressure periodically.

Can I drive with my driver's license information on the Traffic Management 12123 app?

You can drive with your driver's license information on the Traffic Management 12123 app. If you forget to bring your physical driver's license when going out, you can provide your driver's license number (ID card number) to the traffic police for verification to prove that you are not driving without a license. The traffic police will verify your driver's license information through the call center before letting you go. Below is an introduction to driver's licenses: 1. Introduction to driver's licenses: A driver's license, also known as a "driving license," is the abbreviation for a motor vehicle driving license. According to the law, it is a certificate that motor vehicle drivers need to apply for. 2. A driver's license is a "permit": Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Drivers cannot drive on the road without a license. However, for those who have mastered safe driving skills, the document that allows them to drive vehicles on the road is the "driver's license." This shows that a driver's license is a "permit." 3. Definition of a driver's license: Internationally, a driver's license is defined as "a document issued by the competent authority to permit the driving of vehicles for the purpose of driving a car." In China, a driver's license is defined as "a legal certificate issued by the management department after a person who is legally allowed to learn to drive a motor vehicle has studied and mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the examination, permitting the driving of a certain type of motor vehicle."

What Causes the BMW Steering Wheel Warning Light to Illuminate?

Reasons for the steering wheel warning light illumination: The power steering system contains a large amount of air, causing abnormal car steering; foreign objects in the steering hydraulic line result in the steering pump flow control valve sticking. The steering wheel warning light on the car dashboard is essentially the power steering system fault light, indicating a malfunction in the power steering system. Here is additional information: The fault may lead to phenomena such as heavy steering, steering noise, steering wheel vibration, and poor steering wheel return ability. The illumination of the power steering system fault light is extremely dangerous. You can drive at low speeds, avoid sharp turns, refrain from overtaking, and promptly proceed to a professional repair station for maintenance or await rescue.

What Are the Safety Precautions for Driving in Heavy Rain?

Precautions for driving in heavy rain: 1. Clear fog: When driving in rainy weather, be sure to check the windshield wipers. If water fog obstructs your vision while driving, promptly turn on the wipers and the car's air conditioning to keep the windshield clear and transparent. 2. Slow down when turning, avoid sudden steering: Due to slippery roads, turns should be made slowly and gently to prevent the vehicle from skidding, which could lead to dangerous situations. 3. Reduce speed and avoid sudden braking: When roads are wet, the friction between the tires and the road decreases, making it easier for the tires to skid and increasing the braking distance. Therefore, it is essential to drive at a reduced speed in rainy conditions and avoid sudden braking to prevent the vehicle from veering off course.
