Here are specific methods for dealing with a scratched car when the culprit cannot be found: 1. Use a dashcam: Many dashcams have a feature that allows them to continue working after the car is parked, operating at a very low power consumption. If the car is maliciously scratched while parked, the recorded evidence can be used to report to the police, who can then help identify the responsible party. 2. Seek help from security guards or property management: If the car is parked in a paid parking lot, you can ask the property management for assistance in investigating the incident. They may be able to use on-site surveillance footage to identify the person responsible. 3. If parked in an area without surveillance: You can call 122, which is the public traffic accident reporting hotline. After calling, traffic police will usually arrive at the scene to provide assistance.

Can You Shift to P Gear at a Red Light?

It is possible to shift to P gear at a red light, but it is not recommended for drivers to do so. If the car is shifted into P gear and is rear-ended by another vehicle, the transmission of the driver's car may be damaged. Therefore, it is advisable to stay in D gear with the handbrake engaged or shift directly into N gear when waiting at a red light. Automatic transmissions have both N gear and P gear, both of which can be used when parking. When shifted into N gear, there is no locking mechanism to secure the transmission gears, so the car can still move if the handbrake is not engaged. However, P gear is different—it has an internal locking mechanism that secures the transmission gears once engaged. In this case, the car cannot move even without the handbrake being applied.

Do I Need to Drive to Handle Traffic Violations?

Handling traffic violations does not require driving. Methods for handling traffic violations: Traffic violations can be handled by the vehicle owner in person, delegated to someone else to process at the traffic police station, or resolved independently online by checking the points and accepting the penalty. Precautions for handling violations: Violations can be processed either all at once or selectively, and you may raise objections to the violations and apply for administrative reconsideration. If there are no objections to the violations, after completing the deduction of driver's license points, you will receive a violation processing notice and a fine ticket. You can then take the violation ticket to the designated payment bank to pay the fine.

What is the minimum turning radius of a car?

The minimum turning radius of a car is 6 meters. Pre-departure vehicle inspection: Before setting off each day, conduct a comprehensive check of the vehicle, including checking for oil or water leaks, measuring tire pressure to ensure it's appropriate, inspecting the engine oil condition to verify its color is normal and the oil level is correct. Safe driving: Use seat belts properly. In the event of a severe collision, seat belts provide protection no less effective than airbags. Avoid fatigued driving and take breaks every 2 hours. Obey traffic rules: Especially on highways, do not speed. Speeding may not only result in penalties from traffic police but, more importantly, is unsafe.

What is the normal tire pressure for the Nissan X-Trail while driving?

The normal tire pressure for the Nissan X-Trail while driving is between 2.3 and 2.5. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The hazards of excessive tire pressure are: 1. Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; 2. Accelerated wear on the central tread pattern, shortening the tire's lifespan. The hazards of insufficient tire pressure are: 1. Heavy steering wheel and tendency to drift; 2. Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption. The Nissan X-Trail measures 4675mm in length, 1820mm in width, 1722mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2706mm, and is equipped with a CVT transmission.
