Should the Door in the Car Be Opened?

The Door button inside the car is for the interior reading light, and it is generally not recommended to turn it on unless under special circumstances. Below is some relevant information about the reading light: 1. The reading light provides sufficient brightness for passengers when the interior lighting is inadequate, facilitating reading inside the car without affecting the driver's normal operation. Connected to the cigarette lighter socket, it can emit lights of different colors when the switch is activated. 2. The gas interior reading light uses halogen as its material. Halogen-based reading lights are technologically mature and inexpensive, making them widely used in many vehicle models. However, they also have some drawbacks, such as radiation, mercury content, and fragility, which can cause inconvenience during transportation and installation. Their service life is approximately 8,000 hours.
I've always believed that opening car doors requires caution, especially while the vehicle is in motion—never open a door casually! Think about it: with the car moving, opening a door risks being hit by an approaching vehicle from behind, ranging from minor scratches to severe accidents that harm both yourself and others. I've seen numerous reports of sudden door openings knocking over e-bike riders, with devastating consequences. Moreover, opening a door disrupts the car's aerodynamic balance, potentially causing the entire vehicle to flip. My advice: never open a door before coming to a complete stop, even at red lights. When exiting, first find a safe spot to park, engage the handbrake, then check mirrors and blind spots to ensure no vehicles or pedestrians are approaching before gently pushing the door open. Cultivating this habit can be lifesaving—don’t cut corners!
