Storing windshield washer fluid in the trunk is safe, as it is not prone to evaporation. However, ensure the cap is tightly secured. Windshield washer fluid is a liquid used to clean the vehicle's windshield and is considered a consumable item in automotive use. The functions of windshield washer fluid include: 1. Maintaining the transparency of the front windshield while driving; 2. Extending the lifespan of the windshield and wiper blades; 3. Preventing window icing in winter; 4. Reducing static electricity on the windshield. The steps to add windshield washer fluid are: 1. Turn on the wiper switch, and the fluid will spray from below the windshield; 2. Continue until the spray nozzles stop emitting fluid, then open the washer fluid filler cap and add the fluid; 3. Turn on the wiper switch again to clear any remaining fluid; 4. When no more fluid sprays out, add the washer fluid and securely close the cap.

What do the two mileage readings on the car dashboard mean?

There are two mileage readings on the car dashboard: 1. Total mileage: Measured in kilometers, this cannot be reset. 2. Trip mileage: This can be manually reset by long-pressing the black cylindrical button on the dashboard. The total mileage of the vehicle normally cannot be reset. The following are the differences between the two types of car speedometers: 1. Mechanical odometer: The traditional purely mechanical instrument, which uses a flexible shaft connected to the output shaft of the transmission at one end and to the odometer at the other. 2. Electronic instrument: It generally has a speed sensor installed on the output shaft of the transmission or on the wheel, using the read speed to calculate the vehicle speed and mileage through formulas embedded in the control module.

Can Study Credits Be Used for Running a Red Light Penalty of 6 Points?

Study credits can be used for running a red light penalty of 6 points. To apply for penalty exemption through study credits, the traffic violation must first be processed. This is one of the prerequisites for participating in the penalty exemption program. According to the platform's rules, penalty exemption through study credits cannot be applied for if there are no points deducted. The criteria for determining a red light violation involve the electronic eye capturing three photos as evidence: the front wheels crossing the stop line, the rear wheels crossing the stop line, and the front wheels crossing the opposite stop line. Only when all three photos are present will the violation be confirmed as running a red light. Penalty standards for running a red light: Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2 of the "Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations" states that driving a motor vehicle in violation of traffic signal lights will result in a penalty of 6 points. Article 3, Section 1, Clause 8 states that driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibitory signs or markings will result in a penalty of 3 points.

What is the issue with crossing the line when exiting the garage?

The main reason for crossing the line when exiting the garage is turning the steering wheel too early during the exit. Key points for reversing into the garage: When reversing into the right garage, observe the left rearview mirror before turning the steering wheel. After turning the steering wheel fully to the right, observe the right rearview mirror. When straightening the wheels, observe the left rearview mirror again. Ensure both front and rear wheels can enter the garage, then observe both sides to make minor adjustments to the vehicle's position. Methods for adjusting the vehicle's position: Use the distance between the vehicle body and the boundary line as the adjustment standard. If the rear of the vehicle is too close to the right boundary line of the garage, turn the steering wheel to the left to adjust. Conversely, if it is too close to the left boundary line, turn the steering wheel to the right to adjust.

What are the basic knowledge of car operation?

Car operation basic knowledge is as follows: 1. Steering: (1) The three main components controlled by hands: steering wheel, turn signal, and gear shift. (2) The turn signal is located in the middle-left position of the steering wheel. First turn on the turn signal, then turn the steering wheel. The direction in which the steering wheel is about to turn is the same direction in which the turn signal should be activated. 2. Foot-controlled components: clutch, brake, and accelerator: (1) The left foot controls the clutch; the right foot controls the brake and accelerator. (2) Braking should be gradual, using inertia braking. (3) The key action is not to press the brake all the way down, but to control the extent of braking based on the road conditions ahead (practice is needed to master the technique). (4) The accelerator is used for speeding up, and its use should also be gradual, not pressing it all the way down. When the accelerator is pressed, the speed will increase, and then subsequent gear shifting operations are required.
