The correct operation method for the steering wheel is: 1. Place both hands with appropriate force at the nine o'clock and three o'clock positions on the steering wheel; 2. Naturally grip with fingers inward and extend thumbs naturally along the edge of the steering wheel. More details are as follows: 1. The steering wheel is a wheel-shaped device used to control the direction of cars, ships, and airplanes. Its function is to convert the force applied by the driver on the edge of the steering wheel into torque, which is then transmitted to the steering shaft. It mainly consists of a skeleton, foam, and the driver's airbag. 2. The working principle of a steering wheel lock: The steering wheel lock is a mechanical lock composed of a lock handle, lock base, and lock rod. Its shell is installed on the lock handle, with one end of the lock handle equipped with a lock rod. When in use, the positioning fork and hook of the steering wheel lock are secured on the steering wheel rim to restrict the rotation of the steering wheel, achieving an anti-theft effect.

I believe the most important thing about steering correctly is safety first. When driving, I always use the push-pull method: left hand at the 9 o'clock position and right hand at the 3 o'clock position. When turning, one hand pushes while the other pulls, ensuring smooth and steady movements. Especially on sharp turns or highways, this method helps avoid arm crossing that could lead to loss of control and also reduces tire wear. Don’t just focus on the steering wheel when turning—keep your eyes on the road ahead and mentally estimate the turning radius. On rainy days when the road is slippery, steer more gently and slowly to prevent skidding and accidents. I’ve stuck to this method for over a decade and never had any steering issues—friends often say my driving is steady. Practice more in open spaces by making circles to improve your feel for the wheel.

Can You Claim Depreciation for a New Car That Has Been Hit?

According to relevant laws in China, compensation for traffic accidents generally does not include vehicle depreciation fees, only covering the costs of repairing the damaged vehicle. However, in judicial practice, depreciation fees can be claimed under certain special circumstances, such as when a new car parked at a 4S dealership and not yet sold is damaged. There are three key points to note when inspecting a new car: Check the paint surface: Pay special attention to the uniformity and smoothness of the seams. It is best to compare two cars of the same model. The gaps between the doors, bumper, and engine hood should be consistent. Be cautious if the gaps are too large or differ in width from other vehicles. Check the tires: The tires of a new car should have no damage to the sidewalls, and the front tires should show no signs of punctures. Ideally, the tread hairs should be intact on both front and rear tires, or at least visible on the rear tires. If no tread hairs are visible on either set of tires but the odometer shows only a few kilometers, this is abnormal. Check the nameplate: Each vehicle's nameplate corresponds to a unique engine number and chassis number. Verify these numbers against the certification codes to ensure they match. Also, check the manufacturing date on the nameplate; the time between the manufacturing date and the delivery date should not exceed three months.

Is Baodiao Brand Motorcycle Nationally Recognized?

Baodiao brand motorcycle is nationally recognized. There are 3 key points for motorcycle maintenance: Spark plug maintenance: The spark plug is a critical component of the motorcycle engine. Normal combustion of the air-fuel mixture is essential for proper engine operation. Different engines require different spark plug models, primarily varying in heat range and thread size, so it's crucial to use the specified spark plug model. For normal engine combustion, after removing the spark plug for inspection, the electrode should appear reddish-brown. If it appears black, indicating carbon buildup, this means the air-fuel mixture is too rich and combustion is incomplete, requiring carbon removal. Air filter maintenance: The air filter is the respiratory system of the motorcycle. If clogged with dust, the intake resistance increases, reducing engine power output, increasing fuel consumption, and making the engine harder to start and more prone to stalling. More seriously, dust entering the cylinder can accelerate wear on engine components. Oil filter maintenance: During the lubrication process, the oil pump draws oil from the sump and first pressurizes it through the oil filter. The filtered clean oil is then delivered to the cylinder head, crankshaft, and transmission components. If the filter is too dirty, oil filtration efficiency decreases, reducing oil supply and causing inadequate lubrication to various parts, leading to excessive wear.

What to Do If Paint Gets on the Car?

The solutions for removing paint from a car are: 1. Spray paint remover on the affected area (paint remover is a liquid that quickly dissolves paint, effectively removing paint stains from the car); 2. Let it sit for five minutes (allowing the paint remover to fully react with the paint on the car); 3. Finally, use a cloth to wipe the painted area of the car. Precautions for car washing include: 1. Avoid using high water pressure, as it can cause the water flow to carry sand and dirt on the paint surface, impacting the paint layer and damaging the car's paint; 2. Do not wash the car too frequently—washing it 2 to 3 times a week is sufficient, as frequent washing can accelerate paint surface oxidation.
