When driving in rainy weather, you should turn on the headlights, clearance lights, and rear position lights. Here are some additional details: 1. Maintain a safe distance: It is crucial to keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front when driving in the rain. Wet roads can make it difficult to stop suddenly at high speeds. Driving at a lower speed allows for more braking time and helps prevent accidents. Stay away from large trucks and heavy vehicles. When passing through waterlogged areas, slow down and proceed with caution. If the water level exceeds half of the tire height, there is a risk of water entering the vehicle and engine, which can lead to serious consequences. 2. Important notes: Never use hazard lights ("double flashing"). Hazard lights are warning signals that every vehicle is equipped with and should only be used in very dangerous situations, such as when there is an accident ahead or when temporarily stopping on the main road. They should not be used during normal driving, as misuse can send wrong signals to surrounding vehicles and cause accidents.

Is it serious if the small iron block on the wheel hub falls off?

It is not serious if the small iron block on the wheel hub falls off. Below are specific explanations regarding the small iron block falling off: 1. Function: The small iron block on the wheel hub is used for tire dynamic balancing. If it falls off, it needs to be reinstalled by removing the wheel, inserting a lead block of the corresponding weight in the same position, performing wheel dynamic balancing again, and then reinstalling it. 2. Impact: If it is not replaced after falling off, it will affect the comfort of driving. Over time, it may cause vehicle shaking, deviation, abnormal tire wear, and increase safety hazards. The car wheel is an assembly consisting of the tire and the wheel hub. Due to manufacturing processes, the weight distribution of various parts of the wheel is uneven. When the car rotates at high speed, dynamic imbalance occurs, leading to unstable driving and steering wheel vibration. To avoid or eliminate this phenomenon, weight is typically added to the side of the wheel to correct the balance of the wheel's parts.

Will water drip under the chassis when the car's air conditioning is on?

Water will appear under the chassis when the car's air conditioning is on. The details are as follows: 1. Function of the air conditioning drain outlet: During air conditioning operation, the evaporator continuously absorbs heat and condenses moisture from the surrounding air into water during the heat exchange process. This water is discharged through the air conditioning drain outlet, which is why a puddle of water appears under the car after the air conditioning has been running for a while. You only need to check whether the car's air conditioning is on. 2. Water accumulation: The car's air conditioning produces condensate during the cooling process, and the condensate drain pipe is located under the chassis. During the rainy season, passing through mud or standing water can also block the drain hole, leading to the same consequences as a blocked engine compartment drain hole—water may flow back into the car, causing water accumulation on the floor.

Under what circumstances is a U-turn allowed at a red light?

When the center line of the road becomes dashed near the intersection or there is a U-turn passage in the central barrier, a U-turn is allowed at a red light. Below is relevant information about U-turns: 1. Regulations: Motor vehicles are not allowed to make U-turns at locations with no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, as well as at railway crossings, pedestrian crossings, bridges, sharp curves, steep slopes, tunnels, or sections prone to danger. Motor vehicles can make U-turns at locations without no U-turn or no left-turn signs or markings, but must not obstruct the normal passage of other vehicles and pedestrians. 2. Considerations: At any intersection, if there are dedicated U-turn signals or ground markings, always follow their instructions, which are usually located in the leftmost lane. Generally, as long as there are no no U-turn signs or separate U-turn signals, motor vehicles can make U-turns at any time without affecting normal traffic flow and ensuring safety. Typically, the central barrier on regular roads will change from a solid line to a dashed line near intersections, allowing vehicles to make U-turns in this area.

Can the old license plate be used after replacing the car?

According to relevant laws and regulations, when the old car's license plate has completed the motor vehicle transfer or cancellation registration, the old license plate can be used on the new car. However, the following conditions generally need to be met: 1. The old license plate must have been used for more than three years; 2. The old license plate must be used within six months after the transfer or registration of the vehicle; 3. All traffic violation records of the old car must be cleared. Below is additional information: 1. A license plate, also known as a vehicle registration plate, is a plate attached to the front and rear of a vehicle, usually made of aluminum, plastic, or sticker material, displaying the vehicle's registration number, registration area, or other basic information. License plates serve as a unique identifier for each vehicle, allowing identification of the province, city, or county to which the vehicle belongs. The vehicle management office can trace the owner of the vehicle through the license plate. 2. Except for the first two characters, which must comply with national regulations, the rest of the license plate number can be freely chosen.

Is There Any Impact When Parking a Car in a Watery Area?

Parking a car in a watery area does have an impact. Here are the details: 1. Car Audio: An overly humid environment can make it difficult for the CD player to read discs, especially affecting the chips inside the car audio system. These chips become very fragile in a humid environment, leading to distorted sound output. 2. Spare Tire: To save space, the spare tire is usually placed in a corner where it can easily accumulate dust. If the underground garage remains cold and damp for a long time, these corners may develop mold, which can then corrode the spare tire and tire-changing tools. Parking Precautions: 1. Clean and maintain the car before parking; 2. Park in a garage or, if possible, in a dry and shaded area; 3. Regularly check the tire pressure and inflate the tires if the pressure is insufficient. Pay attention to signs of tire aging; 4. When parking, stay away from trees and billboards.

What is the Slow Down Sign?

Slow down sign is a very simple designed sign with a "Slow" character in the middle, straightforward and clear, on a yellow triangular background with black borders. It is used to remind drivers to slow down and drive carefully. This sign is usually placed in sections of the road where drivers need to slow down in advance. The most common places for slow down signs include school zones, pedestrian crossings, slippery road sections during rainy days, entrances and exits of certain institutions, road construction areas, and sections with heavy pedestrian traffic. When driving in these areas, it is necessary to slow down in advance, observe left and right, confirm safety, and then proceed with the vehicle. The slow down sign is placed in these locations mainly because these areas are prone to traffic accidents, reminding drivers to slow down to prevent traffic incidents. Whether driving a vehicle or doing anything else, life safety is always the top priority. If you encounter this sign, drivers should slow down and observe carefully. When driving, always pay attention to the signs on both sides of the road, as they are all useful. Some sections may have a large sign indicating that the upcoming road section is a high-accident area.
