How Soon Can a New Car Go on the Highway?

[EmmaAnn]

New cars can go on the highway at any time. Newly purchased cars have a break-in period, during which the car can drive at high speeds as long as the engine is not operated at excessively high RPMs. Running the engine at high RPMs during the break-in period can increase engine wear. When driving on the highway, the following points should be noted: 1. Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front and avoid getting too close; 2. Drive in the appropriate lane—faster vehicles should stay in the fast lane, while slower ones should use the slow lane; 3. In case of an emergency on the highway, park the vehicle in the emergency lane, turn on the hazard warning lights, and place a warning sign 150 meters behind the car; 4. Private vehicles are prohibited from using the emergency lane for driving. Maintaining a safe distance while driving is the best preventive measure to effectively avoid traffic accidents on the highway.
