Under normal driving conditions, when a straight-going vehicle collides with a left-turning vehicle, the left-turning vehicle is at fault. Special circumstances include: 1. If the left-turning vehicle is already in the process of turning and the straight-going vehicle fails to notice and collides with it, the straight-going vehicle is responsible; 2. If there is a yield sign at the intersection ahead of the straight-going vehicle and the straight-going vehicle fails to yield, colliding with the left-turning vehicle, the straight-going vehicle is fully at fault; 3. If the straight-going vehicle runs a red light and collides with a left-turning vehicle that is turning normally according to the traffic signal, the straight-going vehicle is fully at fault. When motor vehicles pass through intersections controlled by traffic signals, they should follow these rules: 1. At intersections with designated lanes, enter the appropriate lane based on the intended direction of travel; 2. Vehicles preparing to enter a roundabout must yield to vehicles already in the intersection; 3. When turning left, activate the turn signal and turn from the left side of the intersection center point; 4. When turning right and encountering a vehicle in the same lane waiting for a signal, stop and wait in sequence; 5. At intersections without directional signal lights, turning motor vehicles must yield to straight-going vehicles and pedestrians, and right-turning vehicles from the opposite direction must yield to left-turning vehicles.

Why is water dripping from the Tiguan's exhaust pipe?

Tiguan's exhaust pipe dripping water is a very normal phenomenon. This is because after gasoline undergoes safe combustion, it produces carbon dioxide and water vapor. When the water vapor condenses, it forms liquid water, which will be discharged through the exhaust pipe once a certain amount is reached. In fact, water dripping from the exhaust pipe is a good sign, as it indicates that at least three conditions are met: 1. The air-fuel mixture ratio is correct, indicating that the fuel supply system is in good condition. 2. The engine's cylinder pressure is normal, meaning there is no internal wear in the engine block, and components such as cylinder liners and seals are functioning properly. 3. The exhaust pipe temperature is low, indicating that the heat generated in the engine is concentrated in the cylinders, with only a small amount escaping into the exhaust pipe, which signifies strong engine horsepower output. Note: Water flowing from the car's exhaust pipe is normal, but excessive drainage should be monitored. Car owners should regularly check the exhaust pipe for corrosion or rust caused by accumulated water.

Where is the fog light fuse of the Verna located?

The fog light fuse of the Verna is located in the fuse box in the front engine compartment. Below is the classification of automotive lights: 1. Headlights: The combination headlights are located at the front of the vehicle, primarily serving illumination and signaling purposes. The light emitted by the headlights illuminates the road ahead, enabling the driver to drive safely at night. 2. Combination taillights: The combination taillights are located at the rear of the vehicle, mainly serving illumination and signaling functions. 3. Turn signals: These are used to indicate left or right turns to other road users. Regulations require them to be amber in color. 4. License plate lights: These primarily illuminate the license plate, allowing people to identify the vehicle's license plate at night. Extension: The purpose of fog lights is to make the vehicle visible to others in conditions of reduced visibility, such as fog or heavy rain. Therefore, the light source of fog lights needs to have strong penetration. Most vehicles use halogen fog lights, while LED fog lights are a more advanced option.
