For a right-angle turn, the steering wheel needs to be turned two and a half times. Generally, a full turn of the car's steering wheel is one and a half turns. When turning the steering wheel, the amount turned should be matched by an equal amount turned back to ensure correct direction and prevent deviation. If the steering wheel's rotation angle is unclear during driving, observe the vehicle's direction of travel to judge. Tips for right-angle turns: Before turning, try to drive as close to the outer side as possible. Begin turning inward when the front of the car is about to reach the opposite sideline. Keep an eye on the front and also observe the rearview mirror while slowly turning the steering wheel back. If you feel the middle of the car is about to pass the vertex of the right angle, gradually correct the car's direction. Control the speed well. When turning the steering wheel back, be even, calm, and decisive. Avoid rushing or turning the wheel too forcefully. Adjust the right rearview mirror's position to be as low as possible, allowing you to see the right rear tire from the side. Slow down as much as possible when the car is about to enter the right-angle turn. Keep the left wiper pivot close to the left line of the right-angle turn while moving forward. This point can be hard to judge since it varies based on each person's seating position and height ratio. The main goal is to ensure the left tire is about 15 centimeters away from the left line of the right-angle turn while maintaining proper body alignment.

How is running a red light determined in 2021?

According to Article 90 of the new "Road Traffic Safety Law": It is determined by capturing three photos through electronic cameras. The first photo shows the vehicle crossing the intersection stop line, including the traffic light being red and the license plate number; the second photo shows the vehicle completely crossing the stop line, including the traffic light being red and the license plate number; the third photo shows the vehicle continuing to move, mainly by comparing the position change of the vehicle in the second photo, including the traffic light being red and the license plate number. Capturing these three photos can determine that the vehicle ran a red light. Six situations of running a red light: Stopping immediately after crossing the line at a red light (when the light turns red, the car cannot stop in time, and the front of the car crosses the stop line): If the vehicle just crosses the stop line when the light is red but stops immediately, this kind of red-light running will not be penalized. However, if there is obvious movement after crossing the line, it will be penalized. The three photos taken by the electronic eye for red-light running are: the front wheels crossing the stop line, the rear wheels crossing the stop line, and the front wheels crossing the opposite stop line. Only when these three photos are complete will it be considered running a red light. Running a red light under the command of a traffic police officer: When there is a conflict between the traffic light and the traffic police's gesture, motor vehicle drivers must obey the on-site command of the traffic police. If the red light is run due to the traffic police's on-site command, the driver can go to the traffic police brigade at the scene to obtain a diversion certificate to avoid penalties. If the party concerned has objections to the penalty, they can appeal through administrative reconsideration, administrative litigation, and other channels. Stopping after the entire vehicle crosses the line at a red light (failing to brake in time, causing the entire vehicle to cross the stop line): If the entire vehicle crosses the stop line and does not continue to move, this is not considered running a red light. However, this situation is considered crossing the stop line and stopping. Reversing after crossing the stop line: Motor vehicles are not allowed to reverse at railway crossings, intersections, one-way roads, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, or tunnels. If reversing is done in violation of the rules, a warning or fine may be imposed. Mistakenly running a red light behind a large vehicle (due to the obstruction of the view by the large vehicle in front, following the large vehicle through the intersection): Drivers need to maintain a sufficient range of observation to see the traffic light ahead and ensure a safe braking distance. Generally, if a motor vehicle is photographed behind a large vehicle, it is because they rushed through the intersection when the light was changing. This behavior can only be penalized as running a red light. Passing through the intersection when the light turns yellow (passing through the intersection when the traffic light turns yellow): The traffic police department stated that the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulate that when the yellow light at an intersection is flashing, vehicles that have already crossed the stop line can continue to pass. If the yellow light is already on and the driver continues to rush through, being photographed will also be considered running a red light.
