Curve driving using the hood view method refers to observing the hood during the S-curve driving test in Subject 2 of the driver's exam. When turning left, watch the right corner of the hood align with the left line, and when turning right, watch the left corner of the hood align with the right line. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-curve, is a key assessment point in Subject 2 of the driver's test. The requirement is to drive the vehicle along an S-shaped road of specified width without pressing the edge lines, while smoothly controlling the steering. The main trick for Subject 2 curve driving is to master the principle: left point aligns with the right line, and right point aligns with the left line. Below is a supplementary explanation of the hood view method for curve driving: 1. For a left turn, immediately turn the steering wheel one full circle to the left when the left vertex of the hood touches the right yellow edge line. 2. After completing the first turn and preparing for the second right turn, straighten the steering wheel when the right vertex of the hood touches the right yellow line. 3. When the rounded point at the left 1/3 of the hood touches the left yellow line, turn the steering wheel one full circle to the right. 4. Once the front of the vehicle exits the curve, observe the rearview mirror. When the rear of the vehicle is about to exit the curve, straighten the steering wheel and drive out of the curve driving test area.

Can Old and New Antifreeze Be Mixed?

Old and new antifreeze cannot be mixed unless they are of the same brand. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas, and mixing them could lead to chemical reactions between the additives, rendering them ineffective. How to Choose Antifreeze: The basic indicators of antifreeze are its freezing point and boiling point. On the market, antifreeze comes in several specifications with freezing points such as -15°C, -25°C, -30°C, and -40°C. Generally, it's advisable to choose an antifreeze with a freezing point at least 10°C lower than the lowest temperature in your region. Antifreeze Replacement Cycle: For vehicles that run for long periods, such as taxis, high-quality antifreeze should generally be replaced once a year. For vehicles with shorter running times, replacement can be done every two years or every 30,000 kilometers. To prevent excessive foam formation, which can reduce the heat exchange efficiency between the antifreeze and engine components, ensure the product is within its validity period when adding it. Long-lasting antifreeze can have a validity period of up to three years. If suspended particles, sediment, or signs of deterioration or discoloration are observed in the antifreeze, it should be replaced promptly, and the system should be cleaned.

Is It Normal for a Newly Replaced Battery to Get Hot While Charging?

It is normal for a newly replaced battery to get hot while charging. Reasons why the battery heats up during charging: During charging, the battery's charging current is generally high, causing the electrolyte inside to heat up and boil, which results in some temperature rise—this is normal. Additionally, the battery itself has internal resistance, and the passage of current naturally generates heat. If the battery becomes excessively hot (to the point of being too hot to touch), it may be due to improper charging practices or a potential issue with the battery itself. This can lead to water loss in the battery, shortening its lifespan. Precautions during charging: A car battery getting hot during charging will not explode, but it can damage the battery. This may be caused by severe sulfation or overcharging, in which case charging should be stopped immediately, and the sulfation should be addressed promptly. Typically, charging takes about 8-10 hours. If using a low current, it may take around 12 hours to fully charge. However, it is important to note that you should not wait until the battery is completely drained before charging. It is recommended to charge when the remaining battery level is around 70%, as this usually takes only 6-8 hours to fully charge. Avoid overcharging.
