What does double flashing refer to?
2 Answers
Double flashing refers to the hazard warning lights. Below are the precautions for using double flashing lights: 1. Driving in foggy weather: Due to poor visibility in foggy conditions, not only should the double flashing lights be turned on, but the fog lights should also be activated to alert passing vehicles. 2. In case of vehicle malfunction or traffic accident: The double flashing lights should be turned on to alert passing vehicles for safety. On highways, if a vehicle stops due to malfunction or accident and fails to use lights and set warning signs as required, it will result in a 12-point penalty. 3. Towing a malfunctioning vehicle: Both the towing vehicle and the towed vehicle should turn on the hazard warning lights to alert passing vehicles that they are in an abnormal state. 4. Temporary parking: Turn on the double flashing lights to alert other vehicles.
While driving, I've encountered several breakdowns on the road, where hazard lights were a lifesaver. They refer to the vehicle's warning lights, with both turn signals flashing simultaneously, used to alert other drivers in emergencies such as breakdowns, accidents, or traffic jams. For example, last month during rainy weather when my tire blew out, I immediately pressed the red triangle button on the dashboard, and the flashing lights made the cars behind slow down from a distance, preventing a major disaster. Many drivers underestimate this feature, turning minor incidents into major ones; in reality, breaking down on the highway without hazard lights can easily cause rear-end collisions and also violates traffic rules. During routine car checks, I also make sure the hazard lights are functioning properly, ensuring quick response in emergencies. This feature is cleverly designed—just a simple press activates it, all for the sake of driving safety. After making it a habit, I prioritize using it in any dangerous situation, reducing potential risks.
