Towing start, this method requires the presence of another vehicle. Below is the relevant introduction: Automobile: According to the latest national standard of China, "Terms and Definitions of Types of Automobiles and Trailers" (GB/T 3730.1-2001), an automobile is defined as follows: A non-track vehicle driven by power, with four or more wheels, mainly used for: transporting people and/or goods; towing vehicles that carry people and/or goods; special purposes.

Last time I went on a road trip, my car battery died in the middle of nowhere and I almost panicked. I quickly took out my phone to look for nearby repair shops, but they said the rescue vehicle would take two hours to arrive. In the end, I used a makeshift solution: I stopped a passing car to borrow a jump start. The key is to remember that the red clip goes to the positive terminal and the black clip to the negative terminal—reversing them can fry the car's computer board! While waiting for help, it's best to turn off all electrical devices. If you don’t even have jumper cables, some insurance companies offer free towing services for emergencies. The mechanic told me car batteries should be checked every three years, especially in northern winters when they’re more likely to fail. After this ordeal, I immediately stashed an emergency jump starter in my car.
