What does the car gecko mean?
1 Answers
The term "gecko" is a homophone for "protection," "avoiding misfortune," and "ensuring blessings." Sticking a "gecko" emblem on a car is a way to seek good luck, similar to how some people tie a red ribbon to a new car. There's also a reassuring interpretation: geckos are reptiles, and no matter how fast they crawl, their short legs limit their speed. Putting a "gecko" sticker is a way to remind drivers behind to stay patient and drive slowly. Below are some driving tips: 1. Check the rearview mirrors: Always use turn signals and slow down when turning or changing lanes. Before turning, always check the rearview mirrors—left turns mainly require checking the left mirror, right turns the right mirror, and both require checking the interior rearview mirror. 2. Don’t focus solely on the front of the car: On open roads, look straight ahead about 100 meters, avoiding fixation on the immediate front of the car. 3. Use the clutch: When decelerating at speeds above 40 km/h, there's no need to press the clutch immediately; wait until the speed drops to around 20 km/h before engaging the clutch. 4. Steering: Turn the wheel slowly for high-speed turns and quickly for low-speed turns.
