The solution to a sudden car tire blowout is: 1. Control the direction and slow down the speed; 2. Gradually pull the vehicle to the right and stop; 3. Quickly place a triangle stand 100 meters behind the car; 4. Replace the spare tire and quickly exit the highway. The causes of a car tire blowout are: 1. Tire leakage; 2. Excessive tire pressure; 3. Insufficient tire pressure; 4. Severe tire wear. Tires are circular elastic rubber products installed on various vehicles or machinery for rolling on the ground. They are usually mounted on metal rims to support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, achieve contact with the road surface, and ensure the vehicle's driving performance.

I remember my first experience with a car tire blowout was on a highway late at night. I was really nervous but forced myself to stay calm. I gradually eased off the accelerator, firmly held the steering wheel to keep the car in its lane, and then slowed down using gentle braking to avoid skidding from sudden stops. I found an opportunity to move to the shoulder safely, immediately turned on the hazard lights to alert vehicles behind me. After getting out of the car, I placed a warning triangle 50 meters behind the car to prevent rear-end collisions. I checked the condition of the blown tire and tried to replace it with the spare using a jack and tools, finding the process time-consuming and laborious, but safety comes first. I regularly check tire pressure and tread wear to reduce the risk of blowouts. If changing the spare tire is too difficult, I just call for roadside assistance—never stay in a dangerous spot for too long.

(2) Public electric buses, interprovincial long-distance passenger vehicles and large buses, Beijing B license plate taxis (excluding rental vehicles), postal service vehicles, vehicles holding tourist bus operation certificates issued by the municipal transportation administrative department, and unit shuttle buses and school buses approved by the municipal public traffic management department.

What is the length of a seatbelt retractor?

The retractor of a car seatbelt is generally about 1 meter in length. Here is some relevant information: 1. Seatbelt: A seatbelt is a safety device used in equipment, such as when riding in aircraft or performing high-altitude work or stunts, to ensure safety. The main materials are polyester, polypropylene, and nylon. A seatbelt does not only refer to the webbing; besides the webbing, it also includes other components assembled together. 2. Consequences of a loose seatbelt: When an accident occurs, the seatbelt pre-tensioning device activates. If the seatbelt is too loose, the likely consequences are: the occupant may slip out from under the seatbelt; or, the person may have already hit the airbag while the seatbelt, due to excessive slack, fails to tighten in time. This means the seatbelt does not absorb part of the impact force as intended, leaving all the burden to the airbag.
