What is the Function of Car ABS?

The functions of car ABS: Maximize the effectiveness of the brakes, reducing braking time and distance. Effectively prevent vehicle skidding and fishtailing during emergency braking, ensuring good driving stability. Allow steering during emergency braking, providing excellent steering control. Avoid severe friction between the tires and the ground, reducing tire wear. Classification of ABS: ABS is mainly classified by channels. In ABS, the brake pipelines that can independently adjust brake pressure are called control channels. ABS control channels are divided into four-channel, three-channel, two-channel, and one-channel types. One-channel ABS: Also known as single-channel ABS, it has a brake pressure regulator installed in the rear wheel brake main pipe and a wheel speed sensor on the rear axle differential (sometimes one on each rear wheel). Two-channel ABS: This type of ABS struggles to balance directional stability, steering control, and braking effectiveness and is rarely used today. Three-channel ABS: Independently controls the two front wheels while controlling the two rear wheels based on the low-select principle (i.e., both wheels are controlled by one channel to ensure the wheel with less traction does not lock), also known as hybrid control. Four-channel ABS: Equipped with four wheel speed sensors, each wheel brake cylinder pipeline has a separate brake pressure regulator for independent control, forming a four-channel control system.

What are the key points for steering during A2 parallel parking?

Drive straight with the right side of the vehicle 30 cm from the roadside line. When the starting wheel passes the corner of the parking space by 3 meters, turn the steering wheel to the left. After pulling out at an angle, continue turning the steering wheel to the left. Here are the relevant details: Preparation: For parallel parking, start by aligning the vehicle. Keep the right side of the vehicle approximately 30 cm from the parking space line and drive straight to the starting line. Reversing: Begin reversing from the starting line. Look at the right rearview mirror, and when the corner of the parking space disappears from the mirror, turn the steering wheel fully to the right while reversing. Look at the left rearview mirror, and when you see the inner corner of the parking space, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left. Continue reversing. When the left rear tire is about to touch the dashed line of the parking space in the left rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel another full turn to the left. Exiting the space: Observe both rearview mirrors. When the vehicle is parallel to the parking space lines on both sides, stop. Turn on the left turn signal to prepare for exiting. When the right corner of the front hood aligns with the right roadside line, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right. Continue driving forward. When the left one-third of the front hood aligns with the left roadside line, turn the steering wheel another full turn to the right. When the vehicle is parallel to the roadside lines on both sides, straighten the steering wheel. Slowly exit the parallel parking area.

What materials are needed to help someone else with vehicle inspection?

To help someone else with vehicle inspection, you need to prepare the original vehicle license, the duplicate of compulsory traffic insurance, the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's ID card, the original and photocopy of the agent's ID card, and a written authorization letter from the vehicle owner. The process of helping someone else with vehicle inspection: Make a phone appointment for the agency service. After the appointment is successful, confirm the time and place for picking up the vehicle. At this time, the agent should remind the owner to prepare the required materials, as well as the valid triangle warning sign and fire extinguisher in the vehicle. After the agent picks up the vehicle, the owner needs to sign the pick-up confirmation form. The agent then drives the vehicle to the agreed inspection center for the inspection. After the inspection is completed, the agent returns the vehicle to the designated location and hands the relevant documents back to the owner. The owner can confirm everything is correct after checking the vehicle. Introduction to vehicle annual inspection: It is a performance inspection for vehicles that have already been registered and licensed. According to national regulations, small and micro non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected once every 2 years within the first 6 years; once a year after exceeding 6 years; once every 6 months after exceeding 15 years; trucks and large and medium non-operational passenger vehicles must be inspected once a year within the first 10 years; once every 6 months after exceeding 10 years, etc.
