Some highways lack emergency lanes mainly due to cost issues. Definition of emergency lane: The emergency lane on a highway refers to the part of the road adjacent to the right-hand traffic lane, including the hard shoulder, with a width of more than 3 meters and an effective length greater than or equal to 30 meters, which can meet the needs of vehicle parking. In emergency situations, vehicles can drive or park on the emergency lane. Emergency lane parking instructions: If you encounter problems such as a breakdown that cannot be resolved, you should park the vehicle in the emergency stopping area, turn on the hazard warning lights, place a warning sign 150 meters behind the vehicle, and during nighttime, rain, fog, or other adverse weather conditions, also turn on the side marker lights, tail lights, and rear fog lights. All occupants must move to a safe area and, if necessary, promptly call the highway emergency number for assistance.
Is the tire pressure of a Corolla 195 kPa? I think the normal tire pressure should be above 220 for stability. I've been driving a Corolla for three years, and at first, I thought 195 would suffice, but the car felt unstable at high speeds. During maintenance, the mechanic said low tire pressure causes faster tire deformation and increases fuel consumption. The recommended tire pressure for a Corolla is usually between 220 and 240, as stated on the label on the door frame—195 is too low and should be inflated immediately. I check the tire pressure monthly, as seasonal changes affect it; in winter, cold contraction causes tire pressure to drop quickly, and topping it up improves handling. Don’t delay too long—excessive tire wear leads to unnecessary replacement costs and compromises driving safety.
