The insured vehicle is the one covered by the insurance policy. The third-party vehicle is the one that was hit in an accident. Below are some relevant introductions about driving a car: 1. Precautions: Do not drink alcohol before driving. It is common knowledge that driving under the influence is prohibited. Avoid wearing headphones while driving as they can muffle external sounds and interfere with your judgment. Ensure your car is regularly maintained before hitting the road, and always check the vehicle's condition before each drive. 2. Good habits: It's advisable to walk around the car and inspect its exterior and tires for any abnormalities before driving. Once inside, first adjust the steering wheel position, then the seat. Ensure your driving posture is properly set before starting the engine and shifting into gear to begin your journey.

When I first started learning to drive, I was completely confused by insurance terms. The 'insured vehicle' is actually the car we drive ourselves, and that's what the insurance company covers. As for the 'third-party vehicle,' it refers to the other car we accidentally hit in an accident. I remember the first time I reported an accident, I didn't quite understand my own vehicle's insurance and ended up arguing with the other party, dragging things out for a long time before it was resolved. Third-party liability insurance is quite important—having enough coverage can save you from big payouts. Now, before I hit the road, I always take a quick look at my policy to make sure my own car is well-maintained and that my third-party coverage is high enough to give me peace of mind. For new drivers, chatting more with fellow car enthusiasts about their experiences can help you stay safe and avoid unnecessary headaches.

Having worked in the auto repair industry for over a decade, I deal with accident vehicles every day. The 'marked vehicle' refers to our own repair shop's car, the owner's precious vehicle sent in for repairs. The 'third-party vehicle' typically means another car involved in the accident. Last week, I repaired a rear-end collision case where the marked vehicle belonged to our client, which hit a luxury car - the third-party vehicle's repair costs were covered by insurance. Many disputes arise from not understanding these concepts, so it's crucial to distinguish insurance documents clearly. I recommend regular vehicle inspections and ensuring third-party liability insurance is valid. Don't panic when accidents happen - clarify responsibilities and follow proper procedures. No matter how high the repair costs, choose reliable insurance coverage and practice safe driving.

As a car owner with elderly and children in the family, I'm particularly concerned about driving safety. The 'subject vehicle' refers to our daily family car, which is covered by insurance. The 'third-party vehicle' means the other vehicle that might be hit in an accident, and any damage to it is considered under this category. Last time when I was dropping off my kid at school, I had a minor collision at an intersection. Fortunately, the subject vehicle wasn't badly damaged, and the repairs for the third-party vehicle were fully covered by insurance, which was a big relief. I always prioritize regular car maintenance, checking tires and brakes, and ensuring sufficient coverage for third-party liability. Safe driving is the top priority for family safety. Understanding these terms can reduce stress, and I often exchange experiences with friends and relatives.

What are the hazards of glazing?

After a vehicle undergoes glazing treatment, other beauty treatments cannot be used to protect the paint surface, and only glazing can be continuously applied. Explanation: Glazing involves covering the car's paint surface with a layer of glaze, whose main components are derived from petroleum. Through the high-speed vibration and friction of a polishing machine, the glaze penetrates into the paint to form a protective layer, effectively safeguarding the paint. Benefits of glazing: The non-stick properties of glaze make the paint surface less prone to contamination, keeping it clean. After glazing, the glaze layer increases the hardness and brightness of the paint surface, effectively protecting it from minor scratches. It also provides some resistance to temperature effects on the paint, along with UV protection, acid rain resistance, oxidation resistance, anti-static properties, corrosion resistance, and wash durability. It effectively reduces the roughness of the paint surface, minimizes friction with the external environment, and better protects the paint.

Can Motorcycle Tubeless Tires Get Damaged?

Tubeless tires won't leak air as long as puncturing objects are not removed. Advantages and disadvantages of tubeless tires: Tubeless tires are more durable than traditional pneumatic tires, making them more suitable for long-distance and high-speed driving. They offer better dynamic balance performance and improved driving comfort. However, poor quality, damaged tire casings, weak sidewalls, and low lateral tolerance can lead to reduced load capacity, potentially causing some tires to lose air suddenly. Tubeless tires: Except when punctured, tubeless tires generally do not deflate on their own. Therefore, it's essential to use a pressure gauge to check and maintain the required pressure during inflation, rather than relying on the feel of regular tires to determine if inflation is needed. The chassis is specifically designed to accommodate jacks and clamps in appropriate positions. Then, by using a torque wrench in a counterclockwise direction, the nuts can be loosened at an angle to replace the tire. When using sharp objects with tube tires, avoid punctures, stabs, and contact with acids, alkalis, or oil stains, as these can accelerate rubber degradation.

Why does the automatic transmission keep staying in third gear?

It may be caused by internal failure of the gear shift assembly preventing gear engagement. Transmission module abnormality: This could be due to a malfunction in the transmission's internal control module. Another possible cause is a faulty gear position switch in the transmission. While depressing the clutch pedal again, quickly shift the transmission into a lower gear (these two actions should be performed simultaneously). As you press the accelerator pedal, slightly faster lift the clutch pedal. Shifting techniques: Avoid incomplete gear shifting - forcing the gear lever when shifting incompletely can easily damage gears. This not only damages components but may also lead to vehicle accidents. After moving the gear lever to neutral, avoid rocking it back and forth. Many people habitually rock the gear lever after shifting to neutral, unaware that the unstable neutral position can cause wear on components like shift forks.

Do You Need to Replace the Oil Filter When Changing Motorcycle Oil?

Replacing the oil filter is not mandatory when changing motorcycle oil. Oil Filter: The oil filter, also known as the oil filter element, does not need replacement if it uses a mesh screen. The oil filter is designed to remove impurities such as dust, metal particles, carbon deposits, and soot from the oil, thereby protecting the engine. Oil filters can be categorized into full-flow and bypass types. A full-flow filter is connected in series between the oil pump and the main oil passage, filtering all the lubricating oil entering the main passage. A bypass filter, on the other hand, is connected in parallel with the main oil passage and only filters a portion of the oil delivered by the pump. Cleaning and Replacement Intervals: The air filter should be cleaned or replaced based on the motorcycle model and road conditions. For scooters, it is recommended to clean the filter every 1,000 kilometers and replace it every 3,000 kilometers. If road conditions are poor, these intervals should be shorter. For standard motorcycles, cleaning is generally required every 5,000 kilometers, making maintenance more convenient.

What is the speed limit during heavy rain?

When driving in rainy conditions, the speed should not exceed 60 kilometers per hour. Damage to the vehicle body: Driving in heavy rain can cause damage to the vehicle. After being soaked in the rain, water not only remains on the surface of the vehicle but also seeps into the gaps beneath the body. While driving in the rain, mud and dirt from the road can also splash into these gaps. When rainwater mixes with this dirt, it forms sticky residues that adhere to the gaps and hide in hard-to-reach areas. If not cleaned properly, this can lead to rust on the vehicle body. Engine stalling in the rain: If the car stalls while driving in the rain, do not attempt to restart it immediately. If the water level has submerged the exhaust pipe when the car stalls in water, restarting the engine can cause water to be sucked into the engine, leading to hydro-lock and severe engine damage. In such cases, the engine may need to be replaced entirely rather than repaired. Always remember: if the car stalls in water, do not attempt to restart it a second time.

What is the problem when the Geely Boyue suddenly stalls and fails to start?

Geely Boyue fails to start possibly due to damaged spark plugs. Battery dead or faulty: In low temperatures, the battery's output power decreases due to increased electrolyte viscosity, reduced permeability, and heightened resistance, making it difficult for the starter to drag the engine and reach the minimum starting speed, affecting engine ignition. Check the battery voltage with a multimeter or directly test with a new battery. Insufficient fuel: Discovering no fuel in the car due to incorrect dashboard display. Some vehicles have inaccurate fuel gauge pointers; when the fuel warning light comes on, promptly add fuel. Otherwise, the vehicle may struggle to start, especially in winter when temperatures are very low. You can press the fuel pipe while starting to feel for fuel pressure.
