Factors that affect a car's fuel consumption include: 1. Issues with spark plugs and high-voltage wires. As the vehicle's usage time extends, abnormalities in the ignition circuit may occur, leading to increased fuel consumption; 2. The degree of tire wear also impacts fuel consumption. Severe tire wear can cause slippage, requiring the engine to output more power, thereby increasing fuel consumption; 3. Some drivers open windows at high speeds to save on air conditioning, but this increases aerodynamic drag, leading to higher fuel consumption. It is recommended to use the car's air conditioning system flexibly.

Why do some people drive at 160 km/h on the highway?

Because they have a radar detector combined with navigation alerts, coupled with a sense of luck and a desire for thrill-seeking, some people drive at 160 km/h on the highway, but this is a traffic violation. Here are some relevant details: Speed limit of 120 km/h: The speed limit on domestic highways is 120 km/h, with a maximum tolerance of up to 130 km/h, as there is a 10% redundancy for speed limit violations. If caught driving at 160 km/h, you will be penalized with 6 demerit points. Most importantly, at a speed of 160 km/h, any accident would almost certainly be fatal. For your own safety and the safety of others, do not speed. Precautions: Safe driving on highways requires maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, observing carefully when overtaking, staying away from large trucks, and avoiding sudden braking.
