When your car is hit by someone else's vehicle, first check if the other party has any damage. If not, then inspect your own car. If your car is in good condition, you need to take proper care of it. Identify the person who hit you and don't let them leave, as this can help minimize the damage caused by the collision.

A few days ago, my car was rear-ended, and I was completely stunned on the spot. I immediately turned on the hazard lights and got out to check, only to find the other driver also in a daze. I quickly reminded him to pull over to a safe spot, while taking out my phone to capture panoramic photos and specifically recording videos of both license plates and the collision points. My heart was still pounding, but I remembered to take a photo of the other driver's license and get his phone number, then immediately called 122 to report the accident. When the traffic police arrived, they instructed us to exchange insurance information, so I directly filed a claim with my insurance company. These past few days, the car has been at the 4S shop for damage assessment and repairs, and I've kept electronic copies of all the repair documents. In a collision, safety is the top priority—never argue in the middle of the road, as it's even more dangerous with other vehicles approaching from behind.

What is the method for tightening a tire valve core?

The method for tightening a tire valve core is to turn it clockwise inward and then put on the valve cap. The functions of tires are: 1. To transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force to achieve vehicle operation; 2. To support vehicle loads; 3. To reduce and absorb vibrations and impact forces during driving, preventing severe vibrations from damaging vehicle components. Tire maintenance methods include: 1. Regularly cleaning stones stuck in tire treads; 2. Minimizing exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Promptly checking tire pressure; 4. Paying attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly inspecting front wheel alignment; 6. Adopting careful driving habits by choosing smooth road surfaces, avoiding objects that may puncture or scratch tires, and steering clear of chemical spills that could corrode tires.

What does the three locks on an off-road vehicle mean?

Off-road vehicle three locks refer to three differential locks, which can significantly enhance the off-road performance and escape capability of the vehicle. The three locks on an off-road vehicle are: front axle, center, and rear axle, totaling three differential locks. The main features of an off-road vehicle include a non-load-bearing body, four-wheel drive, high ground clearance, tires with good traction, elevated exhaust pipes, high horsepower, and sturdy bumpers. Precautions when driving an off-road vehicle include: 1. Remember that mud splashing and wheel spinning are major taboos in off-roading. Know when to retreat. If individual wheels start spinning in the mud, stop immediately; 2. To maximize the traction of all four wheels, gently press the accelerator with your right foot. Sudden acceleration will only cause the wheels to spin violently and lose traction.

What are the effects of a faulty car carbon canister?

Car carbon canister failure affects the vehicle's emissions. The function of the car carbon canister solenoid valve is to reduce air pollution caused by fuel evaporation emissions while improving fuel efficiency. When the car starts, the solenoid valve opens, releasing the adsorbed fuel vapor into the intake manifold to enter the engine for combustion. Solutions for a damaged carbon canister solenoid valve include: 1. Cleaning the fuel tank exhaust system; 2. Cleaning or replacing the carbon canister solenoid valve. The working principle of the carbon canister solenoid valve is to control the purging effect of the carbon canister through the modulation of electrical pulse width. The ECU computer, based on different engine operating conditions, grounds the solenoid valve circuit at a certain frequency to turn it on or off. The ECU computer controls the vacuum of the purging carbon canister by operating the normally closed solenoid valve.

Should You Depress the Clutch or Release the Throttle First When Shifting Gears?

When shifting gears, you must first release the throttle before depressing the clutch. The clutch in a car serves to engage and disengage the engine from the wheel transmission system. This means that when you depress the clutch, the engine's transmission is disconnected from the wheels, and the engine's power is no longer transmitted to the wheels. If the throttle is not released after depressing the clutch, the engine continues to operate, which is not only ineffective but may also damage the engine. The maintenance methods for brakes are: 1. High-temperature resistance protection to prevent corrosion of the braking system, avoid brake pads from seizing due to high temperatures, and eliminate brake squealing; 2. Clean the brake discs, brake drums, and any parts of oil stains, dirt, and friction dust to maintain good heat dissipation of the brake discs; 3. Regularly replace brake fluid; 4. Regularly check the thickness of brake pads or brake shoes.
