Roadside white solid line parking spaces are for long-term parking. If it is a temporary parking space, there will be signs indicating the parking time, and drivers should park according to the instructions. Below is a detailed introduction about car parking: Overview: Car parking (moto-vehicle-parking) refers to parking the car in a place that complies with regulations, is convenient, and safe, and requires following certain methods to ensure the safety of the vehicle occupants, the car, pedestrians, and other vehicles. Others: If the car is to be parked for a long time (more than 10 days), it is best to park it in an indoor garage. If parked outdoors, it is advisable to cover the car with a special car cover to prevent damage to the car's paint.

I usually drive to and from work, and the white roadside parking spaces are the ones I use most often. They are generally free and have no time limit, but the specifics depend on the location and city regulations. For example, in busy downtown streets, there might be short-term parking signs indicating 15 or 30 minutes, and parking for too long could result in a ticket. On the small streets in my hometown, there aren't as many restrictions—I can park for a few hours to go grocery shopping or pick up the kids from school. Before parking, I always check for any traffic signs or notices to confirm there are no restrictions, just to be safe. Safety first—never park in front of a fire hydrant or block an intersection, as you might get towed if reported. Just in case, I downloaded the local traffic management app to check parking info, which is very convenient.

Someone familiar with urban parking regulations told me that white parking spaces are designed for temporary parking without fixed time limits, but this varies by location. In residential areas, you can park for longer periods, such as overnight or half a day, without issues. However, near school entrances, there might be specific time slots allowed, like during drop-off and pick-up hours. I recommend checking for yellow lines or nearby signs before parking to avoid obstructing traffic during peak hours. Risks of long-term parking include fines or towing, so I remind my friends to use public platforms to consult traffic management information, ensuring safe and reasonable vehicle use. Street parking is meant to be a convenient tool, but we must responsibly maintain order and not treat it as a permanent parking spot.

New drivers often wonder how long they can park in white parking spaces, but later learn that there's basically no time limit, though it's best not to rely on it too much. I usually park for two or three hours to run errands or shop, and if I see auxiliary signs like '30-minute limit,' I follow them. Choosing the right spot is crucial: avoid parking in blind spots or on slopes to prevent accidents. Parking apps help me check real-time regulations, especially in unfamiliar cities. Remember not to block sidewalks or private driveways to avoid trouble. Short-term parking is the safest and most hassle-free option.

Why does the speedometer fluctuate up and down?

The reason for the speedometer fluctuating up and down is: a malfunction in the vehicle speed sensor. A faulty vehicle speed sensor can also cause unstable engine idling, momentary stalling or engine shutdown when starting the vehicle or decelerating to stop while driving, and reduced engine acceleration performance. The vehicle speed sensor is typically installed in the drive axle housing or transmission housing, displaying the vehicle's speed through pointer movement or generating alternating current signals. It usually consists of a magnetic core with two terminals and a coil. The output signal of the vehicle speed sensor can be a magnetoelectric AC signal, a Hall-effect digital signal, or a photoelectric digital signal.
