The reasons for the EPC light on the car dashboard are: 1. Brake light failure: The EPC warning light will appear when the vehicle's brake lights are not working; 2. Throttle failure: If there is an issue with the engine's throttle or its wiring, the EPC light will illuminate; 3. Brake switch damage: If the brake switch is excessively worn or malfunctions, the EPC light will also turn on; 4. Clutch switch failure will also trigger the EPC light. ESP, which stands for Electronic Stability Program in Chinese, analyzes vehicle driving state information from various sensors and then sends correction commands to systems like ABS and EBD to help maintain dynamic balance. ESP can keep the vehicle in optimal stability under various conditions, with particularly noticeable effects in cases of oversteer or understeer.

Do I still need to renew my driver's license after applying for an electronic driver's license?

Reason: The electronic driver's license has the same legal effect as the physical driver's license and can be used nationwide within its validity period. However, when the validity period of the driver's license expires, the physical driver's license must be renewed.

Does the deployment of car airbags count as a major accident?

Deploying car airbags counts as a major accident. Reasons why airbag deployment is considered a major accident: Car airbags are a safety protection device designed to minimize passenger injuries when the vehicle experiences severe impacts. Therefore, airbags only deploy in emergency situations, specifically when the vehicle undergoes intense collisions to protect passengers. Compared to other malfunctions, airbag deployment is classified as a major accident. Methods to avoid accidents while driving: Do not rush through intersections, especially when making right turns. In many cities, right turns do not have traffic signals, and drivers often proceed directly. However, adjacent non-motorized lanes may have cyclists or electric scooter riders who may not strictly follow traffic rules or assume drivers would not dare to hit them. Therefore, when approaching a right-turn intersection, always stop to let pedestrians pass first or carefully observe the situation in the right-side non-motorized lane. Never rush for that one minute.

Does Using the Car Heater Consume Fuel?

Using the car heater does not consume fuel. The principle behind why the heater doesn't consume fuel: The car heater utilizes the heat from the engine's cooling system as it dissipates heat from the engine. A small fan directs this heat into the car's interior. Even if the heater vent is closed, this heat would still dissipate outside the car, so using the heater does not increase fuel consumption. Precautions when using the car heater: When parked and waiting or resting, using the heater with the windows tightly closed is extremely dangerous, as it can easily lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, especially when sleeping in the car. Therefore, it's advisable to turn off the engine during prolonged stops. If you must use the heater, keep the windows slightly open to ensure proper air circulation inside the car.

How to Operate a Manual Transmission When Turning?

Manual transmission operation methods when turning: 1. Pay attention to road signs and slow down early. At road intersections, there are usually overhead directional signs on one side of the road. Follow these prompts to decelerate in advance when turning. Choose the correct lane based on the signs to enter the turning position. Do not change direction abruptly, and never alter your route after crossing solid lane markings. 2. While observing the road ahead, also be mindful of blind spots on both sides to maintain full situational awareness. 3. If traveling at higher speeds, you can depress the clutch, apply gentle braking, shift to a lower gear, and use inertia to coast slowly. When the speed decreases to match the appropriate gear range, release the clutch pedal and resume normal driving.
