Large trucks have blind spots primarily due to two reasons. First, their massive size, and second, unlike passenger cars, the front and rear wheels of large trucks do not follow the same path. This is a major factor contributing to blind spots, perhaps even the most significant one. Large trucks have numerous blind spots, specifically in the following areas: 1. Front Blind Spot: Typically, an area about 2 meters long and 1.5 meters wide from the front of the truck to behind the cab is a blind zone. 2. Right-side Blind Spot: The right-side blind spot is arguably the most dangerous among all blind spots of a large truck. 3. Left-side Blind Spot: The left-side blind spot is mainly near the rear of the truck. Additionally, the side front near the A-pillar is also a blind spot. 4. Rear Blind Spot: As expected, the entire rear area is a blind spot for large trucks.

What does the exclamation mark on the Zotye T700 display indicate?

When an exclamation mark appears on the car's dashboard, it can indicate one of five possible issues: general malfunction, automatic transmission failure, brake system failure, abnormal tire pressure, or lighting malfunction. Below is a detailed analysis of each scenario: General malfunction: A triangle with an exclamation mark inside indicates that the car's general performance or certain components and functions have malfunctioned. Possible causes include parking sensor failure, fuel cut-off system intervention or malfunction, external light failure, or engine oil pressure sensor failure. It is recommended to visit a 4S shop for inspection to identify the source of the problem. Automatic transmission failure: A yellow gear with an exclamation mark inside is the automatic transmission warning light, indicating a transmission malfunction or insufficient transmission fluid. The transmission fluid should be replaced promptly. Brake system failure: A circle with parentheses and an exclamation mark in the middle represents a brake system warning, signaling either a brake system malfunction or low brake fluid level. Immediate inspection of the brake system is necessary to prevent accidents. Abnormal tire pressure: An exclamation mark with a horizontal line below parentheses indicates the tire pressure monitoring warning light. This light illuminates when the tire pressure is too low. Check the tire pressure and adjust it to the normal range. Lighting malfunction: A yellow bulb with an exclamation mark is the lighting malfunction indicator, alerting you to a faulty light. Solution: Visit a 4S shop as soon as possible for inspection and repair. Alternatively, you can perform a self-check, focusing on commonly used bulbs such as turn signals, fog lights, and interior lights to identify the issue.

What is the actual fuel consumption of the Xingyue L?

Xingyue L fuel consumption ranges from 6.8 to 7.8L. Below is relevant information about factors affecting fuel consumption: Driving habits and road conditions: Fuel consumption is greatly influenced by driving habits and road conditions. Avoid aggressive acceleration - gradual acceleration from a start is most fuel-efficient. To save fuel, avoid heavy throttle application during starts, as this can increase fuel consumption by 2 to 3 times compared to normal acceleration. Frequent braking increases fuel consumption: Maintaining proper following distance to avoid frequent braking saves more fuel. Without adequate distance, you'll often need to brake on roads. When braking, automatic transmission vehicles downshift, requiring the engine to work harder to regain speed from lower gears. Starting from rest or in low gear forces the engine to consume significantly more fuel.
