According to the Road Traffic Safety Law of China, motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles should drive on the right side, while pedestrians should walk on sidewalks. If there are no sidewalks, pedestrians should walk on the side of the road. Relevant regulations: Article 35 of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China states that motor vehicles and non-motor vehicles shall drive on the right side. Article 36: Based on road conditions and traffic needs, roads are divided into motor vehicle lanes, non-motor vehicle lanes, and sidewalks. Motor vehicles, non-motor vehicles, and pedestrians should travel in their respective lanes. If the road is not divided into motor vehicle lanes, non-motor vehicle lanes, and sidewalks, motor vehicles should travel in the middle of the road, while non-motor vehicles and pedestrians should travel on both sides of the road. Countries that drive on the right: Countries that drive on the right are typically continental countries, such as the United States, China, Russia, Germany, France, Brazil, etc. Countries that drive on the left are typically island nations, peninsulas, or subcontinental countries, such as the United Kingdom, Japan, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, etc.

What is the diameter of a Prado tire in centimeters?

Tire specifications for the Prado are 265/65R17. Tire introduction: Tire types have international standard tire codes, expressed in millimeters for section width and aspect ratio percentage. This is followed by the tire type code, rim diameter (in inches), load index (permissible load mass code), and permissible speed code. For example, in 175/70R1477H, 175 represents a tire width of 175MM, 70 indicates the tire's aspect ratio is 70%, meaning the section height is 70% of the width, the rim diameter is 14 inches, the load index is 77, and the speed rating is H. Front and rear tires: Most sedans have the same specifications for front and rear tires. In a few high-performance special-purpose vehicles like sports cars and rear-wheel-drive models, front and rear tire specifications may differ. Generally, the larger the engine displacement, the larger the tire specifications, which directly affects the vehicle's comfort, aesthetics, and off-road performance.

Does Shutting Off an Automatic Car in Neutral Gear Harm the Vehicle?

Shutting off an automatic car in neutral gear does not harm the vehicle. The engine can only be turned off in N (neutral) or P (park) gears; shutting off in D (drive) or R (reverse) gears can damage the transmission. Below is a detailed introduction to the car gears: 1. P Gear is the Park Gear: When the gear lever is in the P position, the transmission is in neutral, but the output shaft is mechanically locked. At this time, the car will stop in place even without pressing the brake. It is generally used when the car is parked for a long time. When shifting into P gear, the car must be completely stationary. Do not shift into P gear when the car is not fully stopped, and always engage the handbrake. When parking on a slope, engage the handbrake first before shifting into P gear. 2. R Gear is the Reverse Gear: When the gear lever is in the R position, the rotation direction of the transmission's output shaft is opposite to that of the engine, allowing the car to move backward. When shifting into R gear, the car must be completely stationary. Do not shift into R gear when the car is not fully stopped. 3. N Gear is the Neutral Gear: When the gear lever is in the N position, the gears inside the transmission are idling, and the clutch is not engaged, resulting in the least load on the transmission. N gear is generally used for short stops, such as waiting at a red light, and when the car is being towed, the transmission should also be in N gear. 4. D Gear is the Drive Gear: When the gear lever is in the D position, the gears inside the transmission automatically shift between the lowest and highest gears based on factors such as vehicle speed and throttle opening, according to the preset shifting pattern. In most cases, D gear can be used for driving.

What Causes the Bumpy Noise in the Jeep Compass?

The causes of bumpy noise in the Jeep Compass are as follows: Engine Noise: There are several possibilities for noise originating from the engine compartment. Most people identify it as engine noise based on the sound source, which is usually a metallic screeching or a wind-like howling. Some noises may indicate potential engine damage, so it is important to repair the engine promptly when such noises occur to prevent further issues. Transmission Noise: If there is a "rustling" sound from the transmission while driving, which disappears when the clutch or accelerator is pressed, and a whistling-like sound occurs during gear shifting, it may indicate transmission issues. Determining whether the noise is related to specific gears is crucial for diagnosing transmission faults. If the noise occurs in a particular gear, it is likely related to the components affecting that gear's transmission. If the noise occurs in all gears, it is often due to faulty constant-mesh gears or insufficient transmission oil.

What is the reason why the clutch cannot be pressed down and the gear cannot be engaged?

The reasons why the clutch cannot be pressed down and the gear cannot be engaged are as follows:1. Gear wear: The general reason is probably that the gears in the transmission are damaged during the running-in process. This results in the gears not meshing smoothly with each other. Solution: You can try to listen for any abnormal noise from the transmission when shifting gears. If there is, it's better to get it checked, as frequently struggling to shift gears can cause significant damage to the gears.2. Lack of brake fluid: It is usually due to a severe shortage of brake fluid in the clutch fluid reservoir. When there is no brake fluid left in the clutch fluid reservoir, the clutch will not function. After adding clutch fluid, it is necessary to bleed the air from the system. Another possible situation is a faulty clutch master cylinder. Or, the clutch slave cylinder may be leaking, causing the clutch to fail. Solution: Add brake fluid or replace the clutch master cylinder.

What is the principle of turning a car past the B-pillar?

B-pillar rule is suitable for four-door cars with balanced body proportions. When the car is about to turn, if the driver's line of sight just reaches the B-pillar, it indicates that the car's length is just right to avoid collision and can safely complete the turn. For common right turns at intersections, you can start steering when the vehicle's B-pillar reaches the stop line. The principle of turning past the B-pillar is that when you feel half of the car's body has passed the stop line, you can make the turn. Precautions for turning are as follows: 1. Control speed: The first thing to pay attention to when turning is not to apply the brake during the turn, as it can easily lead to loss of control, causing skidding or even rollover. You should reduce the speed to an appropriate level before entering the turn. 2. Avoid neutral gear when turning: Try not to enter a turn in neutral gear, especially for U-turns. In neutral gear, the engine cannot restrain the wheels' movement, and the car is essentially moving by inertia, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of all braking and steering operations.

How many points are deducted for parking within 50 meters of an intersection?

Parking within 50 meters of an intersection results in a deduction of 2 points. Below is relevant information about the penalties: 1. Urban streets: Illegal parking on ordinary urban roads or main urban roads, or parking on roadsides without parking lines, generally results in a fine but no point deduction. 2. Violations: If you park illegally at key traffic points such as traffic lights, you will be fined and have 3 points deducted. The most severe penalty is for illegal parking on highways, occupying emergency lanes, which results in a fine and a deduction of 6 points. 3. No-parking zones: Some areas have no-parking signs or markings, barriers, pedestrian crossings, or construction zones where parking is not allowed. Areas such as intersections, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, railway crossings, and within 50 meters of these locations are prohibited for parking, as are bus stops. Parking is also not allowed within 50 meters of gas stations.
