Is Launch Control Illegal?
2 Answers
Launch control is not illegal. Below is an introduction to other penalty standards for launch control violations: 1. Launch control at traffic lights: This is considered a traffic violation, punishable by a fine of 200 yuan and 3 demerit points. As a racing technique, launch control is recommended to be attempted on closed roads or race tracks. Using launch control on public roads with traffic is considered dangerous behavior. 2. High kinetic energy: Because the vehicle has very high kinetic energy at the start of launch control, sudden situations may make it impossible to brake within a short distance. Launch control uses the transmission to adjust the engine speed to the maximum torque output platform. 3. Acceleration technique: This achieves the best acceleration by ensuring the engine starts outputting maximum torque at the moment of launch. Another technique derived from this is the burnout start, where excessive throttle causes the rear wheels to spin and produce large amounts of smoke.
Launching your car on public streets is basically illegal. Having driven many cars myself, I understand this maneuver involves rapid acceleration with screeching tires - too much sudden power can be dangerous. Traffic laws generally require smooth driving; behaviors like speeding or reckless acceleration may get you pulled over by police, resulting in fines, demerit points, or even vehicle impoundment - no joking matter. Safety first - I believe gradual acceleration is the wise approach for street driving, not risking it just to look cool. Race tracks or professional venues are appropriate places to try such techniques, but always follow facility regulations. Before attempting new driving tricks, thoroughly research traffic laws to avoid costly mistakes you'll regret.
