Automatic transmission vehicles have the reverse gear labeled as: R. There are six gear positions on an automatic transmission car, listed from top to bottom as: P, R, N, D, S, L. Below is an introduction to the gear positions of an automatic transmission vehicle: 1. P-Parking, Parking Gear, Start Gear: When the vehicle is parked and not in use, the gear is in this position, where the wheels are mechanically locked to prevent rolling. 2. R-Reverse, Reverse Gear: Used when reversing. 3. N-Neutral, Neutral Gear: Used for temporary stops (e.g., at a red light). Note that this gear position indicates neutral, and to prevent the vehicle from rolling on a slope, the brake must be engaged. 4. D-Drive, Forward Gear, also known as Drive Gear: Used when moving forward.

Is overtaking only allowed from the left side?

Overtaking must be done from the left side; otherwise, it constitutes a traffic violation and may result in penalties. Here is relevant information about overtaking: Definition of overtaking: Overtaking refers to the process where a following vehicle changes lanes to the rear side of the vehicle in front, passes it, and then returns to the original lane. The lane typically used for overtaking is the inner lane, which is closer to the center of the road and farther from the shoulder. Dangers of improper overtaking: The right side is a blind spot for left-hand drive vehicles, with severely limited visibility. The vehicle being overtaken may not notice a violating vehicle on the right, making it prone to collisions with vehicles overtaking from the right when changing lanes to the right.

Will I be fined if one brake light is broken?

Driving with a non-functioning brake light may result in a warning or fine. Here are specific details about brake lights: 1. Introduction: Brake lights are generally installed at the rear of the vehicle, with red as the main color to enhance light penetration. This ensures that following vehicles can easily detect when the front vehicle is braking, even under low visibility conditions, thereby helping to prevent rear-end collisions. 2. Principle: Power passes through a fuse to the brake switch. When the brake pedal is pressed, the switch connects, sending electricity to two brake lights and one high-mounted brake light, completing the circuit through the negative line connected to the vehicle body.

Which Gear to Use When Going Downhill with an Automatic Transmission?

When going downhill with an automatic transmission, you can simply use the D (Drive) gear. Here are some relevant details: Overview: An automatic transmission, as the name suggests, does not require the driver to manually shift gears. The vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. Gear Introduction: Typically, an automatic transmission car has six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), D (Drive), S (Sport), and L (Low). Driving an automatic car primarily using P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive) gears can fully meet the needs of general driving. However, in certain special driving conditions, other functional gears may be required. Therefore, by choosing the correct control method, an automatic transmission car can perform even better than a manual transmission car.

Do I need to turn on the parking lights when temporarily parking on the roadside?

Temporary parking on the roadside requires turning on the parking lights. Below is relevant information about temporary roadside parking: 1. Definition: Vehicles briefly stop on the right side of the road in the direction of traffic on non-prohibited road surfaces without the driver leaving the vehicle. The term "temporary" does not specify a fixed duration. Any brief stop where the driver remains in the vehicle is considered temporary parking. However, if traffic officers or the driver deem it obstructive, the vehicle must move promptly to avoid hindering others. 2. Relevant regulations: Doors must not be opened and passengers must not enter or exit before the vehicle comes to a complete stop. Opening doors must not obstruct other vehicles or pedestrians. Parking is prohibited in areas with pedestrian guardrails (green barriers), crosswalks, construction zones (except for construction vehicles), and opposite obstacles.

What to Pay Attention to for New Cars in Stock for 6 Months

Identify whether it is a flooded vehicle and check for any unusual odors inside the car. Here is relevant information: 1. Check if there is any musty smell in the air conditioning system: If there is, request a replacement of the cabin air filter. Verify whether the production dates of the window glass are consistent, and inspect the front and rear windshields for signs of replacement, for the same reason as the first point. 2. Examine the vehicle's paint surface for noticeable color differences compared to recently manufactured new cars: Most 4S store parking lots are open-air. Exposure to sun and rain is unavoidable, and acidic rainwater can cause some corrosion to the paint. However, stock vehicles without orders are rarely washed, so the condition of the paint will not be ideal.

What Causes Slight Vibration in the Car Seat at Idle?

The reasons for slight vibration in the car seat at idle are: 1. The throttle is dirty or the fuel injector has excessive carbon deposits. When there is too much carbon buildup inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by the cold start injector will be largely absorbed by the carbon deposits, resulting in an overly lean mixture during cold starts; 2. Poor performance of the ignition system or suboptimal spark plug firing conditions; 3. Abnormal fuel pump pressure or incorrect readings and poor performance of the intake pressure sensor; 4. Aging engine mounts. Engine mounts are essentially the shock absorption system of the engine, responsible for absorbing minor vibrations during engine operation. If the engine mounts are faulty, these vibrations will be transmitted to the steering wheel and the interior of the car, causing shaking at idle.
