Driving along the edge line at 30 centimeters is the optimal distance for parallel parking. As long as you find the correct direction and the right points, you will definitely get into the parking space. The key is to ensure that the car does not cross the line or touch the boundary when finally parked in the space. Below are the steps for parallel parking at 30 centimeters: 1. Drive until the left front corner of the parking space appears in the right rearview mirror, then stop. 2. Reverse, and when the left front corner disappears from the right rearview mirror, turn the steering wheel fully to the right. 3. After straightening the wheel, continue to look at the left rearview mirror. When the left rear wheel is about to touch the line, turn the steering wheel fully to the left. Whether the left rear wheel touches the line or not affects the left and right distance after entering the parking space. As long as you don't turn too early or too late, you can get into the space, though the width on both sides may vary.

What is the fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5?

The official fuel consumption data of the Hongqi H5 from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is as follows: the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5-1.5T is 6.2L/100km; the comprehensive fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5-1.8T is 6.4L/100km. Below is extended information about the fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5: 1. The fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5 is considered very excellent among its peers. The reason why the Hongqi H5 is fuel-efficient is that the engine uses an efficient thermal management system, and the engine block has been lightweighted, reducing the overall vehicle weight. The tuning of the Aisin 6AT transmission is also focused on economy, keeping the upshift RPM within a lower range. 2. According to actual measurements, the average fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5-1.5T model is 8.9L/100KM, with a range of 8.1L-10.5L; the average fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5-1.8T model is 9.6L/100KM, with a range of 8.5L-11L. The measured data shows that the fuel consumption of the Hongqi H5 is at a mid-level, not excessively high. 3. In fact, factors such as vehicle weight, tires, wind resistance, and load can also affect fuel consumption. Therefore, to achieve better fuel economy, it is advisable to avoid high engine RPM operation and to release the throttle to let the vehicle coast downhill. Replacing low rolling resistance tires can also help save fuel to some extent.

How Long After Getting a Driver's License Can You Drive on the Highway?

Generally, drivers can drive on the highway after completing a one-year probationary period upon obtaining their driver's license.

If a driver in the probationary period wishes to drive on the highway, they must be accompanied by a driver who has held a license for the same or higher vehicle class for at least three years. For those driving specially modified small automatic passenger vehicles for the disabled, the accompanying driver must hold a license for small automatic passenger vehicles or higher. 2. If a driver commits a traffic violation during the probationary period, resulting in an extension of the probationary period by one year, they must wait for two years before driving on the highway.

How to Start a Car Engine?

Here are the steps to start a car engine: 1. When starting, turn the ignition key to the ON position and wait for 5-8 seconds before turning it to the start position to crank the engine. The purpose of this is to allow the fuel pump to engage and operate before starting, ensuring that the fuel system has built up sufficient fuel pressure through the pump to provide the appropriate amount of fuel for engine ignition. 2. Once the engine starts successfully, immediately release the ignition key to let it automatically return to the ON position. 3. If the engine fails to start, avoid continuously cranking the starter for more than 5 seconds. Also, wait at least 15 seconds before attempting to start again to protect the battery and starter.

Do You Need to Press the Clutch When Shifting to Neutral?

Shifting to neutral requires pressing the clutch. Not pressing the clutch can cause the following issues: 1. Difficulty in shifting gears; 2. Excessive wear of the synchronizer inside the clutch, leading to damage due to shifting impact. The method to shift to neutral is: release the accelerator, press the clutch, and gently move the gear lever into neutral. Neutral gear refers to the state where the vehicle's gear lever is not engaged in any forward or reverse gear, completely separating the transmission from the engine. In manual transmissions, neutral is located in the middle position, while in automatic transmissions, it is marked with an 'N'. The clutch is installed between the engine and the transmission and is a component directly connected to the engine in the vehicle's drivetrain. Its functions include ensuring smooth vehicle starting and enabling seamless gear shifting.
