A manual transmission typically has five gears, namely 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear, and 5th gear. In rare cases, there may be seven gears, which includes an additional reverse gear and a neutral gear. The gear selection in a manual transmission should match the speed: 1. Start with 1st gear, and shift to 2nd gear when the speed reaches 15 km/h; 2. Shift to 3rd gear when the speed reaches 25 km/h; 3. Shift to 4th gear when the speed reaches 35 km/h; 4. Shift to 5th gear when the speed reaches 45 km/h. The principle for downshifting while decelerating is: first reduce speed, then downshift, and it is possible to skip gears.

Why can't the Nissan Sylphy start?

The reasons why the Nissan Sylphy cannot start may include human operational factors such as a dead battery, empty fuel tank, or incorrect gear position; it could also be due to vehicle usage issues like improper fuel quality, lack of antifreeze, or excessive carbon buildup. The vehicle usage reasons are as follows: 1. Fuel quality issue: During a repair, it was found that the fuel tank contained water and mud. Using such fuel will inevitably damage the car. Therefore, car owners are reminded to always refuel at reputable gas stations and can carry a gauze to cover the fuel nozzle when traveling to filter out impurities. 2. Lack of antifreeze: Some car owners add water or inferior antifreeze to their cars, resulting in extremely cold winter conditions that freeze the entire water circuit, crack the engine, prevent the car's water pump from functioning, cause failure to start, and damage other engine components.

How many points are deducted for making a U-turn at an intersection?

Making a U-turn at an intersection deducts 3 points. Below is information about making U-turns at intersections: Situations where U-turns are not allowed at intersections: U-turns are not permitted at crosswalks within intersections. Generally, there are designated U-turn spaces before reaching the crosswalk, but if the current lane is a left-turn lane rather than a U-turn lane, U-turns are also prohibited; when there are clear signs prohibiting left turns or U-turns; when there is only a straight-ahead arrow on the road, U-turns are not allowed. Situations where U-turns are allowed at intersections: Making a U-turn according to the traffic light instructions; when there is a dashed line between the vehicle stop line and the crosswalk at the intersection, yielding to make a U-turn is permitted; U-turns are allowed when encountering yellow grid lines at intersections. Yellow grid lines indicate no parking is allowed, but U-turns are permitted. If the green light at an intersection is about to end, U-turns should not be made. If the light turns red while the vehicle is in this area, it is considered a traffic violation.
