Reasons for a car failing to start: 1. The vehicle is out of fuel, with the fuel gauge showing below the red line, causing failure to start; 2. The car battery is dead, due to reasons like leaving headlights on for a long time or the battery reaching the end of its lifespan. It is generally recommended to replace the battery every 2 years; 3. For automatic transmission vehicles, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral) when starting. If it's in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car will not start; 4. The owner added water or low-quality antifreeze to the car, causing the entire cooling system to freeze in extremely cold winter conditions. This can lead to the engine cracking, the water pump failing to operate, resulting in failure to start and damage to other engine components.

What is the sequence for parking an automatic transmission car?

There are five steps to parking an automatic transmission car: 1. After driving to the parking spot, press the foot brake to stop the car. 2. Shift the gear from D (Drive) or R (Reverse) to N (Neutral). 3. Engage the handbrake and turn off the engine. 4. Release the foot brake, but do not turn off the power (this is to confirm that the car can come to a complete stop under the effect of the handbrake). 5. Press the foot brake again, shift the gear from N (Neutral) to P (Park), release the foot brake, turn the key back to the off position, remove the key, unbuckle the seatbelt, open the door, exit the car, lock the doors using the remote key, and leave (remember to turn off the headlights before exiting the car at night).

The width limitation is designed to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. This means that, under national standards, the significance of vehicle width data lies in ensuring enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, national regulations stipulate that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the requirements of public road usage.
