If it is a highway with two lanes in the same direction, the speed limit for the left lane is 100 to 120 kilometers per hour, and the speed limit for the right lane is 60 to 80 kilometers per hour. If it is an urban road, the speed limit for both lanes is 30 to 40 kilometers per hour. Introduction to speed limits: Speed limits generally refer to the regulation of vehicle speeds within a certain numerical range over a specified distance of road. Purpose of speed limits: The main purpose is to preemptively remind drivers to reasonably control their speed in subsequent sections of the road ahead, prevent the dangers of speeding, and ensure driving safety. Speed limits are an indispensable and most important part of road transportation safety.

I have quite a bit of driving experience, and the speed limit on dual carriageways depends on the specific situation. Generally speaking, on highways with two lanes, the speed limit is usually uniformly marked, for example, in most parts of China, it's 120 kilometers per hour, applicable to all small vehicles. Whether it's the inner lane or the outer lane, the speed limit is the same, but the inner lane is often used as an overtaking lane, so drivers naturally tend to drive faster. However, don't be misled, speeding can still be caught by cameras and result in fines. I remember once driving on a dual carriageway highway in the rain when the speed limit was reduced to 80 kilometers due to the increased risk from slippery roads. Safety first is key, so I recommend checking local traffic regulations before heading out or using a navigation app for real-time speed limit updates. On long-distance drives, fatigue makes speeding more likely, so taking regular breaks is important.

From a safe driving perspective, the speed limit settings for dual lanes aim to balance efficiency and risk. On highways or intercity roads, the speed limit for dual lanes is often uniformly set around 120km/h, with the inner lane designated as a fast-moving zone, but the legal speed limit remains unchanged. There are significant regional differences; for instance, mountainous roads may have speed limits of 60-80km/h to ensure safety on curves. When driving, I pay special attention to road signs to avoid confusion. Additionally, speed limits are affected by weather conditions, such as reducing speed below the limit in foggy conditions. The vehicle's own performance is also crucial; older cars should not be driven at high speeds as they are prone to malfunctions. Regular maintenance and checking tire pressure can prevent sudden incidents. Complying with regulations is essential for the safety of both oneself and others.

I always thought speed limits on dual carriageways weren't that complicated. Basically, you drive around 120km/h on highways, with not much difference between the inner and outer lanes. However, the inner lane can indeed be faster when traffic is smoother, but don't exceed the speed limit, or you'll get a nasty fine. Nowadays, many navigation tools help you monitor speed limits in real-time—I often use a mobile app for assistance. A quick reminder: check road signs before driving to ensure you don't break any rules. For safety, slow down steadily in the rain and avoid rushing to accelerate. Regular vehicle maintenance is essential, as worn tires can affect speed control. In short, just maintain a steady pace.

As a driver who frequently travels long distances, I can tell you that the evolution of speed limits on dual carriageways is quite interesting. Over the past few decades, speed limit standards have been unified, with highways typically setting 120km/h for dual carriageways, where both inner and outer lanes share the same speed limit but the inner lane is designed as an overtaking lane. Factors influencing speed limits include road curvature, such as entrance roads to cities limiting speeds to 60-80km/h. Driving different types of vehicles requires adjusting speed accordingly; older cars should be driven slower to ensure safety. During night driving, with dim lighting, adhering to speed limits is even more crucial. A daily recommendation is to develop the habit of checking vehicle conditions and speed limit signs to avoid major losses for minor gains. These rules significantly enhance safety during long-distance journeys.

What does extended braking distance mean?

When the brake pedal is pressed and braking occurs, if the distance exceeds the standard braking distance, it is called extended braking distance. Reasons for extended braking distance: Issues with brake pads or brake discs: First, the tread pattern of the tires may not provide the same grip as new tires. The brake discs and brake pads engage during braking to achieve the braking effect. Wear and tear occur every time the brakes are applied. Replacing the brake pads or brake discs can resolve this issue. Issues with brake fluid: Brake fluid is also crucial because it has a certain level of hygroscopicity. Over time, un-replaced brake fluid can absorb small amounts of moisture from the surrounding air, forming water vapor. While the fluid itself is incompressible, any gas that enters the fluid can be compressed. If the brake fluid contains water vapor, the braking force will be significantly reduced, affecting driving safety. This can also lead to soft braking. Replacing the brake fluid can solve this problem.

What lights should be used when meeting on narrow roads or bridges?

When meeting non-motorized vehicles on narrow roads or bridges at night, low beam headlights should be used. On roads without central barriers or center lines, drivers should switch to low beam headlights when meeting oncoming vehicles at a distance of more than 150 meters at night. When meeting non-motorized vehicles on narrow roads or bridges, low beam headlights should be used. When passing through intersections controlled by traffic signals at night, vehicles should drive with low beam headlights on. The low beam headlights of a car can be adjusted manually using the knob behind the headlight assembly. Park the car 10 meters away from a wall, measure the distances from the low beam to the central axis, from the high beam to the central axis, and from the low beam to the ground. Then move close to the wall and mark the corresponding positions on the wall. Observe whether the light beam deviates left or right, is too high or too low. If the center of the headlight beam does not align with the marked points, it indicates misalignment. Adjust the headlight width by rotating the adjustment knob until the center of the headlight beam aligns with the marks on the wall.

How often should a six-year-old car be inspected in the following years?

Small passenger vehicles require inspection every 2 years after the first 6 years. Vehicles older than 6 years must be inspected annually, while those exceeding 15 years of age require semi-annual inspections. Vehicle inspections include three categories: motor vehicle safety technical inspection, emission inspection, and comprehensive performance inspection. Key considerations for annual vehicle inspection are as follows: 1. Engine: Check whether the engine, chassis, body and attached equipment are clean, complete and functional; whether the paint finish is uniform and aesthetically pleasing; whether major assemblies have been replaced and match the initial inspection records. 2. Braking performance: Verify whether the vehicle's braking performance, steering control, lighting, exhaust and other safety features comply with technical requirements for safe operation of motor vehicles. 3. Vehicle condition: Inspect whether the vehicle has undergone modifications or alterations; verify if the registration details on the driving license, license plate and vehicle records match the current condition and whether any changes have undergone proper approval and modification procedures.

What are the reasons for the SVS light being on, inability to accelerate, and lack of power?

SVS light being on, inability to accelerate, and lack of power can be caused by faults in the engine or automatic transmission, carbon deposits in the throttle, or poor fuel quality. Faults in the engine or automatic transmission: When the ECU or TCU detects issues with the engine or automatic transmission, the SVS warning light will illuminate. The solution is to promptly visit a repair shop for professional diagnostics. Carbon deposits in the throttle: The main cause is the reciprocating motion of airflow during the engine's intake and exhaust strokes. Not only does air get sucked in during intake, but gas reflux during valve overlap can also lead to carbon buildup in the intake tract. The solution is regular maintenance and timely cleaning of carbon deposits. Poor fuel quality: Low-quality fuel can result in weak acceleration, affect the gasoline filter and fuel lines, and may cause poor fuel delivery, leading to acceleration issues. It can also impact the lifespan of the exhaust system's catalytic converter. If the catalytic converter is clogged, it will directly affect the vehicle's acceleration performance, increase fuel consumption, and cause acceleration problems. The solution is to switch to higher-quality fuel.
