In general, this situation is the responsibility of the at-fault driver. The at-fault driver can stop the car and negotiate compensation with the other party. If you scratched the paint of someone else's car, you can also resolve the issue by filing an insurance claim, but this is usually not cost-effective for both car owners.

Are headlights the same as low beams?

Headlights are not the same as low beams. Headlights is a general term referring to the lighting devices installed on both sides of the front of a vehicle for illuminating the road during night driving, including high beams, low beams, turn signals, etc. Headlights can be either two-lamp system or four-lamp system. The two-lamp system integrates high and low beams into one bulb, with one on each side; while the four-lamp system separates high and low beams, with two on each side. The illumination effect of headlights directly affects nighttime driving operations and traffic safety. Therefore, traffic management authorities worldwide have legally established lighting standards for automotive headlights to ensure safety during night driving. Thus, the use and maintenance of vehicle lights are extremely important.

What are the impacts of high engine braking RPM?

The main impact of high engine braking RPM is that it can cause certain damage to the engine, as it exceeds the load the engine can bear. However, if the RPM remains within four to five thousand, it generally does not affect the engine. Additional information: 1. Engine braking refers to the process of using the engine's resistance to slow down the vehicle. When the actual driving speed of the car exceeds the speed it should have under the current gear and throttle, it enters the engine braking state. 2. During gear coasting, the engine RPM usually does not rise too high. After releasing the throttle, it will not exceed the normal driving RPM. Since coasting is a deceleration process, the RPM will gradually decrease. As for long downhill driving, if you want to coast in gear, both the speed and RPM will increase progressively, requiring a higher gear or steeper road conditions.

What does 'cancel' mean in a car?

CANCEL is used to deactivate the cruise control, SET is to set the current speed as the cruising speed, and RESUME is to restore the original cruising speed. Cruise control system is also known as speed control device, speed control system, or autonomous driving system. When the CANCEL button is pressed during cruising, the cruise control will be temporarily suspended, and the CRUISE indicator light above the water temperature gauge will turn off. Its function is to automatically maintain the vehicle speed as set by the driver without the need to press the accelerator pedal, allowing the car to travel at a fixed speed. Installing a cruise control system in a car enables the driver to avoid controlling the accelerator pedal during long highway drives, reducing fatigue and unnecessary speed changes, which can save fuel consumption. The working principle of the cruise control system is that the cruise control component reads the pulse signal from the speed sensor, compares it with the set speed, and issues commands to mechanically adjust the throttle opening via the servo to keep the vehicle at the set speed. Other button functions in the car are as follows: Fuel tank opening button: This button is used to remotely open the fuel tank cap from inside the car. Vehicles equipped with this button allow the driver to open the fuel tank cap from inside the car. ESP switch: This is used to turn the vehicle's ESP on or off. The vehicle's ESP system is in the working state by default. Reverse radar button: This is used to turn the reverse radar system on or off as needed. The driver can press this button to manually control the operation of the reverse radar. Central locking button: This is the control button for the central door lock system. The driver can press this button to simultaneously lock or unlock all doors. Air conditioning button: In extreme temperatures during summer and winter, drivers and passengers often turn on the air conditioning for comfort. However, incorrect operation of the air conditioning button can affect its effectiveness. Wiper button: Wipers are commonly used in rainy weather and when the windshield is dirty. Front and rear hood buttons: The front hood is rarely opened, usually only for maintenance and repairs, while the trunk is opened more frequently. These two buttons are generally located on the left side of the driver's position. Lane departure warning switch: Pressing this button activates the lane departure warning function, which alerts the driver when the vehicle crosses lane markings. MODE button: Pressing this button switches between audio modes such as CD, radio, or Bluetooth. Window lock button: Pressing this button allows only the driver to control the window operation, effectively preventing children in the front passenger or rear seats from opening the windows.
