The recommended amount of antifreeze to add is approximately 4 liters, but this should be adjusted according to the actual condition of the vehicle. Insufficient antifreeze can cause the engine or radiator to freeze and crack, leading to engine failure. The antifreeze reservoir has water level markings, including a maximum and minimum level. It is advisable to fill the antifreeze to a level between the maximum and minimum marks. Adding too much antifreeze can cause overflow, and since antifreeze is somewhat corrosive, it may damage rubber components in the vehicle. Adding too little antifreeze may result in the engine or radiator freezing or even cracking in cold weather, and it will not provide sufficient cooling, which can also lead to engine failure.

How Many Meters Should the Distance Be When Changing Lanes on the Highway?

When the speed exceeds 100 kilometers per hour, a distance of more than 100 meters should be maintained with the vehicle behind in the same lane. When the speed is below 100 kilometers per hour, the distance can be appropriately reduced, but the minimum distance should not be less than 50 meters. Below are specific details about highway driving: 1. Check the car before entering the highway: Before driving on the highway, inspect the car's braking system and tire pressure to avoid emergency braking failure. Both underinflated and overinflated tires are unsuitable for highway driving and can easily lead to blowouts. 2. Fasten seat belts: Seat belts should be worn whether driving on regular roads or highways. Rear passengers should also wear seat belts during highway driving. 3. Drive in the designated lane: Highways have clearly marked lanes for different types of vehicles, such as large vehicles and small cars. Once you occupy a lane while overtaking, return to your original lane promptly after completing the maneuver. Avoid occupying other lanes for extended periods.

What does single-point speeding on highways mean?

Single-point speeding refers to when a vehicle is speeding and passes a speed measurement point set up at a specific section of the road. The reason for using single-point speed measurement is mainly to enforce speed limits in areas where the speed limit values vary, road conditions are complex, or safety standards are not high. Notes: Currently, single-point speed measurement methods are widely used. When drivers pass through sections with single-point speed measurement, they tend to focus on avoiding speed detection cameras. Upon seeing speed measurement warning signs, they often brake suddenly. Additionally, speeding violations captured by single-point speed measurement can sometimes be somewhat random. Single-point speed measurement is mainly set up at a specific point on the road. If a vehicle exceeds the speed limit at this point, it will be recorded as a traffic violation.
