Car fault diagnostic methods are: 1. Touch method: Diagnose overheating or looseness of mechanical parts, and pulsation of high-pressure fuel pipes. 2. Sensory method: During driving, the car pulls to one side, the turn signal doesn't light up, the exhaust pipe backfires or emits black smoke, or a tire bursts. 3. Trial method: If a cylinder in the engine is not working properly, you can use the method of cutting off the spark or fuel supply to each cylinder one by one to identify the issue. 4. Comparison method: Replace and compare with new spark plugs or injectors against the original ones. 5. Testing method: If the car wobbles or the tires wear unevenly, specialized tests are needed to identify the cause using instruments and then eliminate the problem.

How to Steer When Reversing Normally?

Reversing steering operation essentials are as follows: 1. Before reversing, first clearly observe the situation behind the vehicle: estimate the reversing route, determine whether the front of the vehicle will hit obstacles, and try not to press the accelerator when reversing to control the speed not too fast. 2. Use the left hand to turn the steering wheel according to the direction the rear of the vehicle needs to move: if the rear of the vehicle needs to move to the right rear, turn the steering wheel to the right; conversely, turn the steering wheel to the left. In fact, this is consistent with the steering operation when the car is moving forward. 3. Do not keep looking behind the vehicle during the reversing process: under the premise of confirming the safety behind the vehicle, it is necessary to observe the left and right rearview mirrors from time to time, pay attention to the distance between obstacles and the vehicle body, and accordingly use the steering wheel to correct the position of the vehicle when reversing. 4. Do not develop the habit of turning the steering wheel in place: this is more likely to damage the vehicle and is also very troublesome to operate.

Why Should the Main Road Vehicles Go First Compared to the Service Road Vehicles?

Generally, the main road has more lanes and faster speed, so vehicles on the service road should yield to those on the main road. Roads with high traffic volume are designated as main roads, which serve as the trunk lines, while service roads are the branch lines. Branch line vehicles should yield to trunk line vehicles. The specifications for service roads are as follows: 1. In ground-level expressways, service roads should be set on one or both sides of the main road. For elevated roads, service roads should be set on the ground level beneath the elevated road. In urban areas, service roads should be continuously set. For expressway service roads located in suburban areas, they can be set continuously or intermittently. 2. For the cross-section layout of ground-level expressway service roads, physical barriers or marked lines should be used to separate motor vehicle lanes from non-motor vehicle lanes. When motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes are physically separated, the width of the motor vehicle lane should not be less than 7.5m. When motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes are separated by marked lines, the width of the service road should not be less than 8.5m.

Where to Go for Driver's License Annual Review?

Where to Go for Driver's License Annual Review? The local vehicle management office handles driver's license annual reviews. Within 90 days before the driver's license expires, bring your ID card (submit temporary residence permit if applied for in a temporary residence), driver's license, and three ID photos to the issuing vehicle management office to obtain the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Application Form". After filling it out, go to the designated medical examination point for a physical check-up. Once you obtain the physical condition certificate, submit it along with the form to process the license renewal. For (Class A, B) licenses, submitting the physical condition certificate upon expiration does not require filling out the application form. Below are the required materials for driver's license annual review: 1. Original copy of the driver's license, ID card, and motor vehicle driver's physical condition certificate. Annual review schedule: 2. Drivers holding Class A, B, N, P licenses, Class C drivers engaged in commercial transportation, and drivers over 60 years old must undergo annual review once a year. 3. Drivers holding other license classes must undergo annual review once every two years. 4. The annual review deadline is based on the expiration date marked on the "Supplemental Certificate" of the driver's license. Drivers who fail to review on time will face penalties.

What are the commonly used transmission devices?

Classification of automotive transmission devices: According to different energy transfer methods, they can be divided into mechanical transmission, hydraulic transmission, hydrostatic transmission, and electric transmission. Based on structure and transmission medium, their types include mechanical, hydromechanical, hydrostatic (volumetric hydraulic), and electric. Below is a related introduction: 1. Definition of transmission devices: A transmission device (Transmission device) is an intermediate device that transfers the power from the power unit to the working mechanism. The basic function of the transmission system is to transmit the power generated by the engine to the driving wheels of the vehicle, generating driving force to enable the vehicle to travel at a certain speed. 2. Structure of transmission devices: The transmission device is an intermediate mechanism that transfers the motion and power from the prime mover to the working mechanism. Its composition and arrangement vary depending on the type of engine, installation position, and the intended use of the vehicle. 3. Function of transmission devices: The transmission system has functions such as deceleration, speed change, reversing, power interruption, inter-wheel differential, and inter-axle differential. Working in conjunction with the engine, it ensures normal vehicle operation under various working conditions, providing good power performance and fuel economy.

What is the capture distance for solid line lane changing violations?

The capture distance for solid line lane changing violations ranges from 15 to 30 meters. According to Article 90 of the 'Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China', driving a motor vehicle in violation of prohibited line markings will result in a deduction of 3 points. Changing lanes by crossing solid lines violates traffic marking instructions and is subject to a fine of 200 yuan and a deduction of 3 points. Situations involving solid line lane changing include: 1. Novice drivers: Many novice drivers realize they are on the wrong path only when they reach the solid line area. For example, needing to turn right at an intersection but being in the middle lane, they may have to change lanes at the solid line near the intersection, where they are easily caught by traffic cameras within a 100-meter range. 2. Traffic congestion: When encountering long queues in the current lane, some drivers choose to cross the solid line to switch to a less congested lane, which not only disrupts traffic flow but also increases the likelihood of being caught by traffic cameras. 3. Special circumstances: Such as when there is a traffic accident ahead, malfunctioning traffic signals, natural disasters affecting road conditions, or the presence of emergency vehicles requiring lane changes over solid lines. In these cases, the action is not considered a violation.
