Highway safe driving requires the following six points: 1. Conduct pre-driving inspections, including checking tire pressure and brakes, to avoid malfunctions during high-speed driving. 2. Maintain sufficient safety distance while driving to prevent emergency braking by the vehicle ahead. 3. Keep a safe distance from large trucks, as they are numerous on highways. Following too closely not only severely obstructs your view but also increases the risk of falling cargo. 4. Immediately apply the brakes to reduce speed upon noticing the brake lights of the vehicle ahead. 5. Do not occupy the emergency lane unless absolutely necessary. If required, promptly activate hazard lights and place a warning sign behind the vehicle. 6. Avoid fatigued driving; if drowsiness occurs, take a break at the nearest service area immediately.

Correct Method for Automatic Transmission Start-Stop Function?

In automatic transmission vehicles, the start-stop system operates normally as soon as the engine is started. When the brake is pressed, the engine typically shuts off automatically within 1-2 seconds. Here are the drawbacks of frequently switching the start-stop system on and off: 1. Higher maintenance costs for the battery and starter: Frequent engine starts and stops can damage related components such as the starter and battery. 2. Poor user experience: Noise and vibration are more noticeable when the start-stop system activates. 3. Increased fuel consumption in traffic jams: During severe traffic congestion, the engine remains off for extended periods, causing the combustion chamber temperature to drop. Unburned hydrocarbons and paraffin can form carbon deposits on the cylinder walls. Poor fuel quality exacerbates this issue. Carbon deposits lead to higher fuel consumption and reduced power, counteracting the fuel-saving purpose of the start-stop function and instead increasing fuel usage.

Is it allowed to wear a hat while driving?

It is allowed to wear a hat while driving. Wearing a hat while driving does not result in penalty points, as long as it does not obstruct the driver's vision. Traffic laws do not prohibit wearing hats while driving. However, wearing a hat reduces the amount of light reaching the eyes, making objects ahead appear darker, which is not conducive to the driver's ability to clearly see road conditions. The following behaviors are prohibited while driving a motor vehicle: 1. Driving with doors or compartments not properly closed. 2. Hanging or placing items within the front or rear windows of the vehicle that obstruct the driver's view. 3. Making or receiving handheld phone calls, watching TV, or engaging in any other activities that hinder safe driving. 4. Turning off the engine or coasting in neutral when going downhill. 5. Throwing items onto the road. 6. Riding a motorcycle with hands off the handlebars or hanging items on the handlebars. 7. Driving continuously for more than 4 hours without stopping to rest or resting for less than 20 minutes. 8. Honking the horn in no-honking zones or sections.

Can You Still Drive Without Points on Your License?

You cannot continue driving without points on your license. If you have accumulated 12 points within 12 months, you are required to attend a course at the vehicle management office within the specified time frame. A driver's license only has 12 points within a 12-month period. If you fail to attend the course within the stipulated time, your driver's license will be automatically revoked. Here are some details about driver's license point deductions: 1. The cumulative scoring cycle for road traffic safety violations (i.e., the scoring cycle) is 12 months, with a maximum of 12 points. This cycle starts from the date the driver's license is first issued and repeats continuously. 2. The scoring cycle for traffic violations is generally 12 months, with a total of 12 points. Depending on the severity of the violation, points can be deducted as follows: 12 points, 6 points, 3 points, 2 points, or 1 point. 3. If you accumulate fewer points within a year, your points will automatically reset to 12 at the start of the next cycle.
