When all vehicle lights suddenly go out during night driving, you should try to turn on the hazard warning flashers, gradually slow down, and pull over to the side of the road. Even if the hazard warning flashers cannot be activated, you should avoid sudden braking, as this can easily lead to a rear-end collision. Precautions for night driving: 1. Speed: Whether driving during the day or at night, speed is an important factor to consider. However, nighttime driving speeds should generally be slower than during the day. 2. Lights: During night driving, both the front and rear lights of the vehicle should be turned on. When making a turn, if there is a vehicle behind, the turn signal should be activated in advance to avoid rear-end collisions. 3. Increase following distance: During night driving, the driver's visibility is reduced compared to daytime, and they are more likely to encounter dangerous or emergency situations. Therefore, the driver must be prepared to stop at any time. To prevent accidents, it is important to maintain a safe following distance to avoid collisions with the vehicle in front.

Is D Gear Flashing a Major Issue?

D gear flashing is a major issue. The D gear is a widely used forward gear in automatic transmission vehicles. Its primary function is to enable the transmission to automatically select the appropriate gear in real-time through the collaboration of the transmission's computer and corresponding mechanical structures while the vehicle is moving forward, thereby eliminating the need for manual gear shifting. The gears in an automatic transmission vehicle include: 1. P gear (Park), used for long-term parking of the vehicle; 2. R gear (Reverse), engaged when the vehicle needs to move backward; 3. N gear (Neutral), engaged when the vehicle is parked for a short period without turning off the engine; 4. S gear (Sport mode), which makes the vehicle's driving more sporty; 5. M gear (Manual mode), where gear shifting is manually performed by the driver when the gear lever is shifted into M.
