Correct method for parking an automatic transmission vehicle: 1. Press the brake pedal to slow down and come to a complete stop. 2. After stopping, shift into N (Neutral) gear. 3. Engage the parking brake. 4. Release the foot brake and ensure the vehicle is stationary. 5. Press the foot brake again and shift into P (Park) gear. 6. Turn off the engine. Correct method for starting an automatic transmission vehicle: 1. Turn on the power supply, then start the engine. 2. After ignition, press the brake pedal, shift into D (Drive) gear, release the parking brake, and gently press the accelerator to start moving. 3. After starting, accelerate appropriately according to road conditions. Introduction to various gears in automatic transmission vehicles: 1. P stands for Park, used when parking. 2. R stands for Reverse, used when reversing. 3. N stands for Neutral, used when starting the engine. 4. D stands for Drive, used when the vehicle is moving forward. 5. L stands for Low, mostly used for climbing or descending slopes. 6. S is similar to 2nd gear, only shifting between 1st and 2nd gears.

What documents are required for vehicle inspection now?

Failure to carry relevant documents during the annual inspection may result in the inability to endorse the vehicle license. Traffic police remind that the inspector's ID card must be presented during the inspection, otherwise the vehicle license cannot be endorsed and the annual inspection compliance label cannot be printed. If the owner is not handling the procedure, the inspector's ID card can be used instead. Here is additional information: Relevant regulations: Vehicle annual inspection refers to a mandatory test for all vehicles that have obtained official license plates and vehicle licenses, equivalent to an annual physical examination for the vehicle according to the "Technical Conditions for Motor Vehicle Operation Safety". The 6-year exemption policy applies to the following vehicle types: non-operational large, small, and mini cars, and non-operational small and mini passenger vehicles (the term "non-operational" in this measure does not include: police, fire, ambulance, engineering rescue, converted from operational to non-operational, or converted from taxi to non-operational).

What are the causes of noise in the Velite 6 PHEV?

"The noise in the Velite 6 PHEV is mainly tire noise. Causes of tire noise: Air noise caused by the airflow between tire tread gaps and the disturbance of air around the tires. Vibration of the tire body and tread parts. Road noise caused by uneven road surfaces. Solutions: Choose quiet tires with finer tread patterns. Adhere a layer of cotton fabric to the inner side of the tire guard plate. Drive at a slower speed. Functions of tires: Support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. Transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the car's power, braking, and passability. Work together with the car suspension to mitigate impacts during driving and dampen vibrations. Prevent severe vibrations and early damage to car components, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, and reduce driving noise.

How to Judge Left and Right Distance for Beginners Driving on the Road

For beginners driving on the road, the method to judge left and right distance is: observe the rearview mirror to see if the car behind is too close, or to check if the vehicle behind is a large truck. When the reflection of the car in the rearview mirror occupies two-thirds of the mirror, it indicates that the following car is very close to your vehicle. Therefore, it is crucial to maintain a safe distance at this time and avoid overtaking or changing lanes, as it can easily lead to danger. The methods to judge the distance between the front of the car and a pedestrian are: 1. When the front of the car appears to move from the ground to the person's feet or heels and stays there, the distance between the front of the car and the person is 3 meters; 2. When the front of the car rises to the height of the person's knees, the distance between the front of the car and the person is 1 meter.

What are the consequences of not scrapping a motor vehicle?

Consequences of not scrapping a motor vehicle: It will affect the renewal of the driver's license or annual inspection.

The process of scrapping a vehicle: 1. Fill out the scrapping application form, which requires the owner's signature and fingerprint; 2. Register and review the application; 3. The owner can deliver the vehicle to a qualified recycling company with the vehicle scrapping notice; 4. After verifying the vehicle scrapping notice, the recycling company will dismantle the vehicle, take photos, and issue a scrapped vehicle recycling certificate; 5.

Is the reversing radar ultrasonic or electromagnetic wave?

Reversing radar uses ultrasonic waves because they have better directivity. Ultrasonic waves are sound waves with a frequency higher than 20,000 Hz. They have good directionality, strong penetration ability, and are easy to obtain concentrated sound energy, making them suitable for distance measurement, speed measurement, cleaning, welding, crushing stones, sterilization, and disinfection. In contrast, electromagnetic waves are commonly used for data transmission. By utilizing ultrasonic waves for echolocation, the distance between the car and obstacles can be detected, providing the driver with corresponding information. During reversing, warning sounds indicating distance will be emitted, allowing the driver to perform rational operations based on the warnings to achieve smooth parking. The reversing radar mainly consists of three parts: ultrasonic sensors, a controller, and a buzzer. When it operates, the ultrasonic sensors emit ultrasonic waves outward. When these waves hit an obstacle, they bounce back and are received again by the ultrasonic sensors. The controller then calculates the distance between the car and the obstacle based on the time taken for the ultrasonic waves to be emitted and reflected back. Finally, the buzzer emits warning sounds to alert the driver.
