Traditional cable throttle systems connect the accelerator pedal to the throttle valve via a steel cable with a 1:1 transmission ratio. This means the throttle valve opening angle directly corresponds to the pedal depression by the driver. While this mechanism offers direct response, it suffers from poor control precision.

Is More Gears in a Transmission Always Better?

Transmission gears are indeed better when there are more of them. More gears in a transmission lead to higher transmission efficiency and smoother gear shifting. The functions of a transmission are: 1. Changing the transmission ratio to meet the traction requirements under different driving conditions; 2. Enabling reverse driving; 3. Interrupting power transmission to the drive wheels when the engine starts, idles, shifts gears, or needs to stop for power output. The maintenance methods for a transmission include: 1. Regularly changing the transmission fluid; 2. Frequently checking the fluid level; 3. Avoiding coasting in neutral; 4. Regularly cleaning the transmission; 5. Avoiding forced gear disengagement; 6. Reducing the time spent idling to warm up the car.

How Many Points Are Deducted for Turning in the Wrong Lane?

Turning in the wrong lane deducts 2 points. Lane Borrowing: Refers to pedestrians crossing the roadway where there is no marked sidewalk, or vehicles entering other lanes when turning, meeting, overtaking, making a U-turn, or parking. This includes motor vehicles changing lanes, entering non-motorized vehicle lanes or sidewalks, and non-motorized vehicles entering motor vehicle lanes or sidewalks. If there are no traffic signs in the parking lot indicating whether it is a one-way road, ignorance is excusable. Otherwise, if there are corresponding warning signs, traffic police can impose penalties. Vehicle wrong-way driving on roads is generally determined based on traffic markings. On two-way roads, vehicles must drive on the right side. Occupying the opposing lane will result in penalties for wrong-way driving. Penalties for Not Driving in the Designated Lane: According to Article 51 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, motor vehicles passing through signal-controlled intersections with designated lanes must enter the appropriate lane based on the intended direction of travel. If a vehicle does not drive in the designated lane (wrong lane), it is generally penalized with a 2-point deduction and a fine. Common violations of not driving in the designated lane include: 1. Making a U-turn or left turn where it is not allowed or prohibited; 2. Not following the directional markings at intersections and driving in the corresponding lane; 3. Illegally entering a dedicated lane.

What Are the Principles of Vehicle Maintenance?

Automobile maintenance should adhere to the principle of prevention first, abandoning the concept of repairing instead of maintaining. Maintenance means keeping and caring, maintaining the vehicle in good working condition through good usage habits. Caring involves keeping the vehicle in good working condition through operations such as inspection, adjustment, tightening, lubrication, and replacement. The related introduction is as follows: 1. Purpose of maintenance: The purpose of automobile maintenance is to keep the vehicle clean and tidy, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life. Modern automobile maintenance mainly includes the maintenance of the engine system (engine), transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 2. Daily maintenance: Daily maintenance, also known as daily upkeep, is the work done before driving, during driving, and after parking, which is the responsibility of the driver. The main content of the work is cleaning, replenishment, and safety inspection, which are regular and necessary tasks to keep the vehicle in normal working condition. Primary maintenance is performed by professional maintenance enterprises. In addition to daily maintenance tasks, the main content of the work is cleaning, lubrication, and tightening, as well as inspecting safety components such as brakes and controls. Secondary maintenance is performed by professional maintenance enterprises. In addition to primary maintenance tasks, the main content of the work is inspection and adjustment, as well as dismantling and inspecting tires for tire rotation. Before secondary maintenance, diagnostic testing and technical evaluation should be conducted to determine additional tasks or minor repairs based on the results, which are carried out together with the secondary maintenance. The maintenance cycle for each level depends on the type of vehicle and operating conditions.

What is the Travel Mode of Car Lights?

The travel mode of car lights refers to the fact that in China, vehicles drive on the right side of the road, and the headlights are set with the left beam lower and the right beam higher. In some countries where driving is on the left side, oncoming traffic comes from the right, and the headlight adjustment is the opposite. To avoid dazzling oncoming vehicles at night, the travel mode for car lights was introduced. The functions of car lights are: 1. Turn on the turn signal to alert following vehicles and reduce rear-end collisions; 2. Improve visibility of road conditions to enhance driving safety; 3. Inform the vehicles behind that you are braking and they should slow down; 4. In emergencies or bad weather with low visibility, turn on the hazard lights to alert other vehicles.
