What is the direction of the car when setting off firecrackers for a new car?
3 Answers
There is no specific requirement for the direction of the car when setting off firecrackers for a new car. Below is an introduction to quasi-new cars: 1. Introduction: Quasi-new cars, also known as near-new cars, refer to vehicles that have been used for a short period but have already entered the market for trading. Since the condition of quasi-new cars is not much different from that of brand-new cars, and some vehicles are still within the original warranty period, many consumers have their concerns about buying used cars alleviated. 2. Advantages: Because quasi-new cars are still in the break-in period, they are generally driven with more care by consumers, resulting in good condition and relatively low mileage. Especially for mid-to-high-end used cars, since the owners usually have them as their second vehicle and are experienced drivers, the condition of these cars is generally better. 3. Inspection: Check for any peeling of the car body paint film, new marks on the surface paint, and any excess paint around the exhaust pipe, trim, and windows, as these could indicate that the car is a refurbished vehicle.
Regarding the direction of setting off firecrackers for a new car, I think it depends on traditional customs. In many local traditions, the front of the car should face the main gate or the east, symbolizing smoothness and good fortune. Older folks often say this ensures the owner a safe journey and abundant wealth. For example, when I first bought my car, my neighbor Old Zhang specifically reminded me to point the car’s front toward the house entrance, avoiding the toilet or dead corners, as that could bring bad luck. When the firecrackers go off and the smoke disperses with the wind, having the direction right really sets a good omen. Of course, this varies from person to person—younger generations in cities might not care much, but when seeking blessings, it’s best to follow the old customs. Just remember not to set them off too close to the car to avoid damaging the paint. After all, it’s all about celebrating good fortune.
Setting off firecrackers to celebrate a new car purchase? As someone who's driven for years, I suggest not parking the car directly facing the firecrackers. Accidents can happen, like flying debris scratching the car paint or igniting the tires. Safety first—it's best to park the car facing an open area or a spacious roadside spot. Last time, I saw a young guy light firecrackers right in front of his car, and it left a small dent on the bumper—what a shame! New cars deserve care; keep some distance, and the direction doesn’t matter as long as the car stays unharmed. When celebrating with friends, don’t just focus on the fun—check the surroundings beforehand to ensure everyone enjoys it safely. While new car ceremonies are great, don’t forget basic fire safety awareness.
