If the electronic handbrake cannot be released after pressing it, the owner can try fastening the seatbelt inside the car, starting the ignition, shifting to D gear, and lightly pressing the accelerator pedal. The electronic handbrake will then automatically release. There is no need to panic excessively. Unlike mechanical handbrakes, which may be forgotten to release when driving, electronic handbrakes can generally be released automatically. Here is some additional information: Electronic handbrake: The electronic handbrake is actually the latest technology for achieving parking braking through electronic control. Its working principle is the same as that of a mechanical handbrake. It uses the friction generated between the brake disc and brake pads to control the parking brake. The difference lies in the control method, which has changed from a mechanical handbrake lever to an electronic button.

What does acceleration g-value mean?

Acceleration g-value is the unit of gravitational acceleration, with a value of approximately 10 meters per second squared. Here is some relevant information about vehicle speed: 1. Vehicle travel speed: Vehicle travel speed refers to the distance a vehicle travels per unit of time, simply referred to as speed, commonly measured in kilometers per hour or meters per second. 2. Vehicle operating speed: Vehicle operating speed is the average speed during the total duty time of a vehicle (including driving time and stopping time). It is an important indicator for measuring vehicle usage efficiency and transportation efficiency. Its level depends on the vehicle's average technical speed (average speed during driving time) and the amount of stopping time.

What does BSM malfunction mean?

BSM malfunction refers to a Blind Spot Monitoring system failure. Here are the relevant details: 1. Radar: The radar inside the rear bumper may malfunction due to mud or dust accumulation. Owners can clean the rear bumper and restart the vehicle to check if the warning persists. 2. BSM: This stands for Blind Spot Monitoring system, which alerts drivers when vehicles approach from adjacent lanes behind, assisting drivers in checking rear-side areas during lane changes. The Blind Spot Monitoring system provides reassurance in heavy traffic conditions by using rear-facing digital infrared cameras mounted on door mirrors to monitor vehicle flow on both sides. When a vehicle enters the blind spot of the rearview mirror, the system alerts the driver via a warning light on the inner A-pillar.

What are the effects of changing to wider wheels on a car?

The effects of changing to wider wheels on a car include: 1. Reduced ride comfort: Wider and thinner tires produce more road noise, which is particularly noticeable with some performance tires, affecting the quietness inside the car; 2. Impact on acceleration and braking performance: Larger wheels naturally weigh more, leading to increased unsprung weight. This makes the vehicle's suspension less responsive to road bumps and increases the rotational inertia of the wheels. The classifications of car wheels include: 1. Steel wheels: Simple manufacturing process, relatively low cost, and strong resistance to metal fatigue; 2. Alloy wheels: Lighter weight, lower inertial resistance, high manufacturing precision, and minimal deformation at high speeds, which helps improve the car's straight-line driving performance and reduces tire rolling resistance.

What is the maximum speed limit for motor vehicles when passing through sharp curves?

Motor vehicles should not exceed 30KM/h when passing through sharp curves. The following are precautions for driving motor vehicles: 1. Maintain a safe speed: While driving on the road, do not exceed the speed indicated by speed limit signs or markings. Always maintain a safe speed and avoid speeding. 2. Keep a safe distance: Drivers should always maintain a safe longitudinal and lateral distance from other vehicles, drive cautiously, and prevent traffic accidents. 3. Approach intersections with caution: Intersections are areas with complex traffic conditions. Drivers should slow down when approaching an intersection, observe the traffic situation ahead, and proceed with caution only after confirming safety.

How fast can you actually drive on an elevated highway with a speed limit of 80?

When the speed limit is 80, you should only drive below 80 and not exceed it. However, in actual enforcement, no penalty is imposed for speeds not exceeding 10% of the limit, meaning you won't be penalized for driving up to 88 km/h on an 80 km/h limit. Additional information: 1. The dangers of speeding: The government imposes speed limits on certain road sections, and speed cameras are ubiquitous. The penalties for speeding are also severe. 2. The speed displayed on the dashboard is slightly higher than the actual speed: On average, the actual speed is about 5 km/h lower than the dashboard reading, so there's no need to panic. Just drive safely within the speed limit.

Does keeping a vehicle registered under your name without deregistration have any impact?

Keeping a vehicle registered under your name without deregistration does have impacts. The following are specific impacts: 1. Traffic management department regulations: If the owner of a motor vehicle fails to complete the deregistration within the specified time, the traffic management department of the public security authority will announce the invalidation of the vehicle registration certificate, license plate, and driving license. 2. Insurance claim rejection in case of accidents: Vehicles and license plates announced as invalid cannot continue to be used. If driven, in the event of a traffic accident, the driver will bear full or primary responsibility, insurance companies will refuse to compensate or insure, and it will also affect the subsequent inspection of the driver's license. The vehicle management department will also suspend the registration of newly purchased vehicles.
