I've seen many people get confused before, probably you're referring to a "dad car"—the type of vehicle dads typically drive, usually meaning family-oriented cars that are reliable and practical, like SUVs or compact vans. Our old Honda CR-V is a classic dad car—smooth and safe to drive, with a spacious trunk that can fit strollers and toys, plus decent fuel efficiency, making it worry-free. These cars focus on practicality and space rather than being flashy like sports cars, but they're super convenient for school runs. In my opinion, most Japanese and German compact SUVs fall into this category, with affordable maintenance and long-term usability. If your dad is car shopping, I'd suggest checking out the Toyota RAV4 or Volkswagen Tiguan—they have great reputations, hold their value well, and come with solid safety features.

Should the steering wheel be fully turned after returning it halfway when reversing into a parking space?

The key point in reverse parking is judging the 30 cm distance between (the car body/rear wheels/door handle) and the corner of the parking space. At this time, you need to turn the steering wheel back one full turn and continue reversing slowly. But if this distance is not equal to 30 cm (too narrow or too wide), you need to adjust the car body before turning the steering wheel. Here are the solutions when the distance is less or more than thirty centimeters: 1. The distance between the car body and the corner of the parking space is too narrow: At this time, you need to turn the steering wheel back halfway. If you find that the distance is too narrow when reaching the corner, you need to straighten the steering wheel, let the car tilt into the parking space, open up this distance, and then fully turn the steering wheel. 2. The distance between the car body and the corner of the parking space is too wide: At this time, you need to keep the steering wheel fully turned to shorten the distance, and only turn it back when the appropriate distance is reached.

Is the turn signal lever up for left or right?

Turning the signal lever upwards activates the right turn signal, while moving it downwards activates the left turn signal. Here is some relevant information: 1. Introduction: The turn signal is a crucial lighting system in a car. When driving normally, you should generally activate the turn signal in advance when changing lanes or making a turn. Turning on the signal early alerts drivers behind you, thereby improving safety during driving. 2. Lighting systems: Cars also have many other critical lighting systems, such as headlights, fog lights, and brake lights. Brake lights are particularly prone to damage, and if they malfunction, they can easily lead to rear-end collisions.
