As a seasoned driver with years of experience, I've seen too many cases where people got fined and penalized for sticking their heads out of the car window, typically resulting in a 2-point deduction under traffic laws. This behavior is not only illegal but also extremely dangerous. At high speeds, the wind pressure is intense, making it uncomfortable even without considering the risk of being hit by roadside branches or flying debris. Last time on the highway, I saw a guy doing this, and the police immediately pulled him over, fined him 200 yuan, and deducted points as a lesson. The key to safe driving is staying focused, using the internal air system for comfort, and keeping the windows tightly closed. Once you develop this habit, it's both worry-free and safe. Remember, small actions can lead to big problems while driving. Cultivating good habits is the right path—don't risk it for a bit of cool air. Your life is your own; points can be regained, but a lost life is irreplaceable. Stay focused and drive safely!
