Tennis ball-sized or egg-sized hail can damage a car. Below are some related tips on how to protect your car during hailstorms: 1. Park your car in an indoor parking lot: The most direct way to avoid hail damage is to park your car in an indoor parking lot. Even if the hail is large, the concrete structure will provide protection, ensuring your car remains safe during the hailstorm. 2. Purchase a car umbrella or protective cover: Many online shopping platforms sell foldable sunshades. You can buy these devices to protect your car. Setting up a sunshade can effectively shield your car from hail.

I remember last summer when I was driving to the countryside for an outing, I suddenly encountered hailstones as big as tennis balls, pounding on the roof and windshield like drums. My car roof got several dents, and the windshield cracked, costing nearly two thousand yuan to repair, which delayed my trip at the time. Since then, I’ve been particularly mindful of the weather forecast. Whenever I see a storm warning, I quickly move my car to an indoor parking garage. Hail isn’t something to take lightly—even egg-sized hailstones can damage the hood or side mirrors. In short, don’t underestimate the weather. If your car is parked outside for long, always find a carport or underground garage to keep it safe.

How many kilowatt-hours does a new energy vehicle consume for 300 kilometers?

Currently, the only pure electric vehicle that can travel over 300 kilometers is the e6 electric car, which has a battery capacity of 82 kilowatt-hours. Introduction to New Energy Vehicles: New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that use unconventional vehicle fuels as power sources (or use conventional vehicle fuels with new types of on-board power devices), integrating advanced technologies in vehicle power control and driving to form vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. New Energy Vehicle Range and Battery Capacity: The correlation between the range and battery capacity of new energy vehicles is not fixed. It depends on factors such as the size of the vehicle, its weight, the working mode of the electric motor, and the driving habits of the driver.

Can You Drive with Platform Shoes?

No, you cannot drive with platform shoes because they can easily affect the foot sensation when braking, impair ankle flexibility, and lack a proper pivot point for brake control. When driving, you should avoid wearing slippers, high heels, overly wide shoes, or thick-soled shoes. Slippers can cause your foot to slip, especially in emergency situations, making it difficult to brake effectively and posing a significant safety risk. High heels make it hard to press the pedals properly, leading to insufficient braking. Excessively wide shoes can get stuck on the pedals, preventing proper foot movement, which is extremely dangerous. Additionally, sneakers, often high-top and heavy, can hinder ankle movement, making pedal operation inconvenient and delaying precise reactions in emergencies. Thick-soled shoes, as mentioned, negatively impact brake control and ankle flexibility. Ideal driving shoes should be lightweight and comfortable to reduce foot fatigue during long drives. They should fit well and provide moderate friction for better control over the brake, clutch, and accelerator—ensuring both safety and good pedal feel. Suitable options include canvas shoes, flat leather shoes, lightweight running shoes, and casual sneakers.

Is it necessary to install engine insulation cotton?

Engine insulation cotton is necessary to install. Here are the relevant reasons why it is necessary to install insulation cotton: 1. The insulation cotton has a significant effect on isolating temperature. In other words, because of the presence of insulation cotton, it can to some extent protect the paint on the surface of the engine hood from rapid aging. After long-distance driving, the temperature inside the engine compartment is very high, and prolonged high-temperature exposure can cause the paint on the hood surface to age and crack quickly. Therefore, the paint on some older cars tends to age and lose its luster from the surface of the engine hood, while the paint on other parts remains relatively better. Generally, after driving for a period of time, the surface temperature of an engine hood with insulation cotton is at least 10°C lower than that of an unprotected hood. So, the first benefit of insulation cotton is that it can effectively protect the paint on the hood surface. 2. Insulation cotton can prevent the temperature inside the engine compartment from dissipating too quickly, which is particularly noticeable in winter. With insulation cotton, even in cold weather, the temperature inside the engine compartment will not drop sharply, thereby reducing damage to the engine when restarting within a short time.

Can the emergency lane be used for temporary parking?

Emergency lanes cannot be used for temporary parking. Violations will result in a fine and a deduction of 6 points according to road traffic regulations. Emergency lanes are primarily designated on both sides of highways for vehicles handling urgent matters such as official duties, medical emergencies, fire rescue, and engineering emergencies. Social vehicles are prohibited from entering or stopping in these lanes for any reason, making them known as the life channels of highways. If a motor vehicle is involved in an accident or breaks down and genuinely requires temporary parking in the emergency lane, the driver must use hazard lights as a warning and place a warning sign at least 150 meters behind the vehicle in the direction of oncoming traffic to alert other drivers to safety.

Will Forgetting to Turn Off the Engine Once While Refueling Cause a Fire?

Forgetting to turn off the engine once while refueling will not cause a fire if the car does not produce sparks during operation at the gas station. Although it is a probability event, car owners should not take it lightly, as the consequences can be very severe if it happens. Car owners should remember to turn off the engine first before refueling at the gas station. Refueling without turning off the engine poses a fire hazard for the car, and in severe cases, it could even lead to a fire at the entire gas station. The car's engine operates at high temperatures continuously, and some electrical devices in the car may also be in working condition. If an electrical device experiences a short circuit, even a small spark could potentially cause a fire or even an explosion at the gas station.
