In the event of a scratch, you should immediately choose to call the police and let the traffic police be responsible for finding the responsible party. Here is relevant information about scratches: If a scratch occurs in a paid parking lot: You need to call the relevant property management. If a vehicle is scratched during the custody period, it is due to inadequate care by the parking lot, and they should bear corresponding responsibility. Generally, the time to report to the police is within 48 hours after the incident. If a scratch occurs in a free parking area: After calling the police, you need to contact the insurance company, which will send a specialist to take photos for evidence. Parking precautions: Try to park in formal parking lots. Try to park in areas with surveillance to avoid unnecessary losses. During the thunderstorm-prone season, try to avoid parking under trees or in low-lying areas to prevent tree collapses and flooding. Place valuables in the trunk or under the seats to avoid attracting thieves who might break the window to steal.

What is the symbol for the handbrake being engaged?

The symbol for the handbrake being engaged is a bracket with a small circle inside, which contains an exclamation mark. In some vehicles, the small circle may have the letter 'P' instead. When this warning light illuminates on the dashboard, it indicates that the handbrake is engaged. The handbrake is a frequently used device in daily driving. It is essential to engage the handbrake properly when parking to prevent the vehicle from rolling away. The handbrake is typically used for both short-term and long-term parking. Many modern vehicles now use electronic handbrakes instead of traditional handbrake levers. Electronic handbrakes usually have two motors on the rear wheels. If the warning light does not illuminate on the dashboard after engaging the handbrake, it may indicate a malfunction, and you should visit a repair shop or 4S store for inspection. Some drivers may find their handbrake too loose, causing the vehicle to roll even after tightening the handbrake lever. In such cases, the handbrake needs to be repaired. Before driving, always remember to release the handbrake. Many careless drivers forget to release the handbrake while driving. When parking, always ensure the handbrake is properly engaged. Traditional handbrake levers usually have a cable at the back, which can become loose over time. In such cases, the handbrake cable may need tightening or even replacement if it breaks. When parking, try to avoid stopping on slopes, as the vehicle may still roll even after engaging the handbrake.
