Penalties for driving a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol include fines, suspension of the driver's license, and in severe cases, revocation of the driver's license. Decreased tactile ability after drinking alcohol: When driving after drinking, due to the anesthetic effect of alcohol, a person's tactile sensations in their hands and feet are reduced compared to normal, often making it difficult to properly control the accelerator, brakes, and steering wheel. Decreased judgment and operational ability after drinking alcohol: After drinking, the reaction time to light and sound stimuli is prolonged, and the time for instinctive reflex actions is also extended accordingly. The coordination function between sensory organs and motor organs such as the eyes, hands, and feet is impaired, making it impossible to correctly judge distance and speed.

What are the differences between PHEV and MHEV?

Here are the differences between PHEV and MHEV: 1. Different hybrid models: MHEV is a type of hybrid electric vehicle that cannot operate independently and requires the assistance of a fuel engine. Additionally, the battery capacity of MHEVs is relatively small. PHEV is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle that can be set to operate in hybrid mode or independently in electric mode. PHEVs have a larger battery capacity and can travel longer distances. 2. Different charging methods: Plug-in hybrid PHEVs can be charged externally, whereas hybrid MHEVs cannot. PHEVs are eligible for new energy green license plates, while MHEVs are not.

Should You Downshift When Driving Downhill?

It is necessary to downshift when driving downhill. Here are some relevant details: 1. Downhill Driving: Downhill driving refers to operating a vehicle on a descending slope. Due to inertia, downhill roads are more challenging to navigate than uphill roads and require specific techniques and skills. 2. Warning: To maintain vehicle control, avoid using 'speed control' in situations such as when you cannot maintain the set speed; on slippery surfaces like snow or ice; in heavy traffic, congestion, frequent speed changes, or rough road conditions. 3. Precautions: When driving downhill, coasting in neutral will cause the vehicle to accelerate continuously. In an emergency, brake failure can be extremely dangerous, so it is prohibited to coast downhill in neutral.

What does it mean when the passenger airbag is activated?

Here are the specific details about the activation of the passenger airbag: 1. After a collision: The passenger airbag is installed inside the front dashboard. When a collision occurs, it rapidly inflates a gas-filled cushion between the passenger and the interior components before a 'secondary collision' happens. 2. Protection: It effectively safeguards the head and chest of the passenger. A severe frontal collision can cause significant deformation of the vehicle's front, and the passenger may be thrown forward due to the strong inertia, leading to impacts with interior components. The airbag allows the passenger to 'land on the cushion,' thereby mitigating the impact and absorbing collision energy, reducing the severity of injuries.
