When a breakdown occurs, the 'hazard warning lights' must also be activated. Below is the relevant introduction: Regulations: If a motor vehicle breaks down on the road and needs to stop to fix the problem, the driver should immediately turn on the hazard warning lights and move the vehicle to a place where it does not obstruct traffic; if it is difficult to move, the hazard warning lights should remain on continuously, and warning signs should be set up in the direction of oncoming traffic to increase the warning distance. If necessary, the police should be called promptly. Details: When driving at night and the headlights are on, the 'position lights' are also turned on. The 'position lights' do not need to be turned on separately or specifically. In case of a breakdown, the 'hazard warning lights' must also be activated to alert vehicles behind. Additionally, a 'warning triangle' must be placed about 100 meters behind the vehicle to warn approaching vehicles. All occupants of the vehicle should move outside the traffic lane.

What are the steps for car waxing?

Car waxing involves the following steps: 1. Wash the car thoroughly, preferably using a dedicated car wash solution to ensure it is completely clean. 2. Dry the car. After washing, use a drying cloth to thoroughly dry the car, as water on the paint surface makes waxing difficult. Then, move the car to a shaded area to prepare for waxing. 3. Apply wax. Use a round sponge specifically designed for solid car wax to apply the wax evenly on the paint surface. Avoid applying too thick a layer; a thin coat is sufficient. During application, use the sponge to make circular motions on the car body, creating a fish-scale effect with the wax on the paint. 4. Let it dry. After application, wait for 5-10 minutes to allow the wax to dry completely. Meanwhile, cover the remaining wax for future use. 5. Polish. Use a microfiber towel to polish the paint surface, similar to shining shoes, to remove excess wax until the car shines like new. This concludes the entire car waxing process.

Points for Deduction in Reverse Parking?

There are four points for deduction in reverse parking: 1. Not following the prescribed route or sequence, deduct 100 points. 2. The vehicle body crosses the line, deduct 100 points. 3. Failing to enter the parking space, deduct 100 points. 4. Stopping midway, deduct 100 points. Notes for reverse parking: 1. Speed: The vehicle speed during the entire operation should not be too fast; excessive speed may cause missing the reference points, untimely steering wheel turning, leading to crossing the line. 2. Slowly release the clutch: When encountering the full lock point, slowly release the clutch to avoid stopping midway. 3. Steering wheel turning: When turning the steering wheel, remember this principle: 'Better to turn early than late.' 4. Steering wheel turning range: After the vehicle body enters the parking space, the speed should not be too fast, and the steering wheel turning range should not be too large; turn the steering wheel towards the side that is wider. 5. Time: After the new regulation reform, reverse parking must be completed within 210 seconds, and stopping for more than 2 seconds will deduct 5 points.

What is the general wading depth for sedans?

Sedans generally have a wading depth of 15 centimeters. Below are the specific details: 1. Wading: Ensure the vehicle is driven at a low speed and constantly check the depth of the accumulated water. Manual transmission models should try to use the 1st gear, maintaining steady throttle for smooth passage, while automatic transmission models should also try to engage the forced low gear or snow mode to increase vehicle torque and prevent tire slippage. Avoid sudden driving actions and stalling midway. After exiting the water, apply the brakes several times consecutively to quickly evaporate the moisture on the brake discs and ensure the vehicle's braking performance. 2. Precautions: If the vehicle stalls due to water intake while wading, remain calm and immediately turn off the ignition switch. Do not attempt to restart the engine, as this can cause significant damage to the engine, and insurance companies may deny the claim. Then, quickly disconnect the negative terminal of the battery to prevent short circuits in the vehicle's electrical components due to water ingress. Finally, call for a tow truck and report the incident to the insurance company.

How often does a C1D driver's license need to be reviewed?

C1D is a combined driver's license that includes both a C1 license and a D license. The upgraded C1D driver's license is equivalent to a newly obtained C1 license and does not require annual review. Both the C1 and D driver's licenses have validity periods divided into three types: 6 years, 10 years, and long-term validity. For the C1D license, the first review is conducted in the sixth year after initial issuance, and the second review is conducted ten years after the first review. Regulations on the timing of reviews: The first review for a passenger car is conducted when it reaches six years. Non-operational small and micro passenger vehicles, including family cars that are over 6 years but less than 10 years old, require a review every two years. For vehicles that have just reached six years, the review requires driving the vehicle, carrying the ID card, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle and vessel tax or tax exemption certificate, and compulsory traffic insurance policy to the inspection station for vehicle testing. After passing the inspection, a certification form will be issued, and finally, this form along with the carried documents must be submitted to the relevant window to obtain the annual inspection sticker.

Why don't gas stations allow fueling into containers?

It is unsafe and prone to accidents. During transportation, friction between oil and plastic containers can generate static electricity. However, since plastic is non-conductive, it may cause sparks that could ignite the gasoline. Below are some relevant regulations about gas stations: 1. No smoking: 'No open flames' signs are ubiquitous at gas stations. For those accustomed to taking a smoking break while parked, this habit must not be carried into gas stations. This is because the concentration of gasoline vapor in the immediate area increases during refueling, creating a potential fire hazard if exposed to open flames. 2. No cell phone use: The primary safety concern with using mobile phones at gas stations stems from the sudden increase in signal strength when a call connects. This may generate electronic friction with the station's equipment, potentially igniting fuel vapors. While the friction intensity is low and the probability of danger is minimal, the theoretical risk exists. Therefore, for absolute safety, mobile phone use is prohibited at gas stations. Additionally, the signal fluctuation during call connection may interfere with the electronic equipment operation at gas stations. To ensure proper functioning of these devices, drivers should refrain from using mobile phones on the premises.

Why Does a New Driver's Car Drift on the Highway?

Most cases of a new driver's car drifting are caused by the driver themselves. Excessive Nervousness: Being overly nervous leads to excessive steering wheel movements. Limited Field of Vision: A narrow field of vision can cause the car to drift unconsciously. Steering Wheel Issues: Incorrect steering wheel calibration or misalignment. Reference Points: Disorganized reference points or failure to find suitable ones. Methods to Drive Straight: Look far ahead on the road, keep the steering wheel straight, and find reliable reference points. The most important thing is to practice frequently to develop a feel for the car. As a car owner, the real way to prevent drifting is to practice more. New drivers may not have a strong sense of the road or the car, which cannot be taught in driving school. It's best to find an empty road to practice on, as more practice will lead to improvement. During this time, you can ask a friend to help remind you or drive a car equipped with a lane departure warning system.
