Scratching someone else's car without realizing it at the time is not considered hit-and-run. Here is relevant information: Rearview mirror: The rearview mirror is a tool that allows the driver to directly obtain external information about the rear, sides, and below the vehicle while seated in the driver's seat. For the convenience of driver operation, to prevent traffic safety accidents, and to ensure personal safety, various countries mandate that vehicles must be equipped with rearview mirrors, and all rearview mirrors must be adjustable in direction. Structural principle: The rearview mirror involves an issue of field of view, which refers to the range that the mirror surface can reflect. The industry has proposed three elements of field of view: the distance between the driver's eyes and the rearview mirror; the size of the rearview mirror; and the radius of curvature of the rearview mirror.

Among them, the 2021 2.0L automatic two-wheel-drive Blue Sky Leading Edition, Youth Edition, Explorer Edition, Vitality Edition, and Taste Edition are equipped with a 158-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.3L per 100 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic two-wheel-drive Blue Sky Driving Fun Edition is equipped with a 192-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 6.8L per 100 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic four-wheel-drive Blue Sky Fearless Edition is equipped with a 192-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.2L per 100 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic four-wheel-drive Blue Sky Passion Edition is equipped with a 192-horsepower engine, with an NEDC fuel consumption of 7.3L per 100 km. The Mazda CX-4 has different fuel tank capacities for different models. The distance that can be covered with a full tank of fuel is as follows: Models equipped with a 158-horsepower engine have a fuel tank capacity of 45L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 45/6.3*100=714 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic two-wheel-drive Blue Sky Driving Fun Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 45L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 45/6.8*100=661 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic four-wheel-drive Blue Sky Fearless Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 49.2L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 49.2/7.2*100=683 km. The 2021 2.5L automatic four-wheel-drive Blue Sky Passion Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 49.2L, and the distance that can be covered with a full tank is 49.2/7.3*100=673 km. The fuel consumption of a car is directly related to five major factors: driving habits, the car itself, road conditions, natural wind, and environmental temperature. Specific factors that increase fuel consumption are as follows: Driving habits: Aggressive driving, such as sudden acceleration, frequent overtaking, and not easing off the throttle before a red light, will increase fuel consumption. The car itself: Cars with larger displacements consume more fuel than those with smaller displacements because larger displacements generally mean greater power, requiring more gasoline to burn and perform work. Heavier cars also consume more fuel because greater weight requires more driving torque. Road conditions: Driving on dirt roads, muddy roads, soft surfaces, or mountainous roads increases resistance and fuel consumption. Natural wind: Driving against the wind or on windy days increases car resistance and fuel consumption. Low environmental temperatures: When the engine block is cold, the injected gasoline does not atomize easily, requiring more gasoline to be injected for combustion, thus increasing fuel consumption. Additionally, at low temperatures, the car's computer will control the engine to run at higher RPMs to warm up, which also increases fuel consumption. Fuel-saving tips: Drive at a steady speed, accelerate and brake gently, avoid frequent lane changes, regularly check tire pressure, periodically clean out items accumulated in the car, and avoid opening windows at high speeds. These practices can save a significant amount of fuel.

How is ETC powered?

ETC power supply methods: 1. Solar power supply, which does not require recharging; 2. Battery power supply, the battery can normally be used for 5 years. If the device runs out of power, you can go to the processing location and have the staff handle it, as it cannot be charged by yourself. Before driving through the ETC dedicated lane, ensure that the ETC card is correctly inserted into the OBU. During driving, the ETC card may become loose due to bumps, so it needs to be checked in time. If it becomes loose, it should be promptly inserted back into the OBU. ETC adopts a binding form between the vehicle, the ETC card, and the on-board electronic tag, dedicated to a specific vehicle, meaning one vehicle, one card, and one tag.

Can a slightly scratched bumper be partially repainted?

The bumper can be partially repainted, but there will be some color difference compared to a full repaint. The functions of a car bumper are as follows: Safety aspects: The bumper can act as a buffer during low-speed collisions, protecting the front and rear body of the car. In accidents involving pedestrians, it can also provide some protection for pedestrians. Appearance aspects: The bumper is decorative and an important component in styling the car's exterior. It also has certain aerodynamic functions. Impact resistance: It reduces injuries to passengers during side collisions, enhances the door's impact resistance, and increases the safety and sense of security for the car's occupants.

Where is the ETC device fixed?

ETC is fixed on the windshield in a position that does not obstruct the driver's view. It is usually placed near the central rearview mirror inside the car, or it can be attached to the dashboard close to the windshield. ETC utilizes computer networking technology to conduct background settlement processing with banks, enabling vehicles to pass through highway or bridge toll stations without stopping to pay fees. The use of the ETC electronic toll collection system reduces vehicle wear and fuel consumption, decreases air pollution, achieves energy savings and emission reductions, and benefits environmental protection. Additionally, it eliminates the need for cash payments for tolls, making it convenient for vehicle and financial management.
