Car indicator 'off' is the button to turn off the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system. The Vehicle Stability Control system is enabled by default, and you can turn it off by long-pressing this button. If you don't want to use these assist systems, simply press the 'off' button to deactivate them. Many cars are equipped with a Vehicle Stability Control system, but the names may vary depending on the brand, model, and technology provider. For example, Honda calls it VSA, Toyota calls it VSC, Nissan calls it VDC, and BMW calls it DSC. The Vehicle Stability Control system significantly improves vehicle handling safety and driving convenience. In emergency situations such as sharp turns, sudden acceleration, or hard braking, the system can quickly detect the situation and take appropriate braking measures, such as controlling each tire individually while reducing engine output to maintain vehicle stability.

Is the speed limit for pickup trucks on highways 120 or 100 km/h?

Pickup trucks cannot exceed 100 km/h when driving on highways. Here are the specific details regarding speed limits: 1. Speed regulations: The speed limit for small passenger vehicles on highways is 120 km/h, while the speed limit for trucks is 100 km/h. In China, pickup trucks are classified under the truck category, so their maximum speed on highways is 100 km/h. 2. Penalties for speeding: For small vehicles, speeding less than 20% results in a warning. Speeding between 20-50% incurs a fine of 200 RMB and 3 penalty points. Speeding between 50-70% results in a fine of 1,000 RMB, 6 penalty points, and possible revocation of the driver's license.

How much fuel is consumed per kilometer with 8 liters per 100 kilometers?

8 liters per 100 kilometers translates to 0.08 liters per kilometer. Below are specific details about fuel consumption: 1. Fuel consumption depends on road conditions: Urban driving, short trips, and stop-and-go traffic can all lead to increased fuel consumption. 2. Fuel consumption depends on driving habits: Aggressive braking, fluctuating speeds, prolonged engine idling, frequent acceleration, and long-distance driving at low gears with high speeds can all increase fuel consumption. 3. Principle of vehicle fuel consumption: Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is an indicator for vehicles. Driving below the optimal speed range increases fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, while driving above it has the opposite effect. If the engine speed is maintained within the same safe range, the hourly fuel consumption remains constant regardless of the vehicle's speed.

Does the Steering Wheel Control the Front Wheels or Rear Wheels?

Except for some special vehicles, the steering wheels of ordinary cars and trucks generally control the front wheels. Here is more extended information about automotive steering wheels: 1. Method of operating the steering wheel: If the steering wheel is viewed as a clock face, the correct hand position should be the left hand holding between 9 and 10 o'clock, and the right hand holding between 3 and 4 o'clock. 2. Working principle of the steering wheel: The function of the steering wheel is to convert the force applied by the driver to the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. 3. Reason for not controlling the rear wheels: Controlling the rear wheels with the steering wheel is very unstable, especially with single rear-wheel steering, which has extremely poor stability and becomes difficult to control at high speeds.
