Automatic cruise control is the button with a small arrow on the left side of the steering wheel. Here are some precautions regarding cruise control: 1. Do not use cruise control on winding roads. 2. Do not use cruise control on slippery surfaces. 3. When driving on steep slopes, adjust the accelerator pedal according to the slope to maintain speed. 4. When going downhill, you may need to change gears according to the slope. 5. After completely exiting cruise mode or restarting the vehicle, the speed memory will be cleared, and the 'resume' function cannot be used to restore the previously set speed.

I remember using cruise control for my daily commute made driving much easier. Generally, the cruise control buttons are located on the right side of the steering wheel, easily accessible but not obstructive. Common buttons include an ON or CRUISE switch to activate the system, a SET button to lock in the speed, and sometimes RES (resume) or speed adjustment buttons. The layout varies slightly by brand—Toyota might place them at the lower right of the wheel, while BMW may integrate them into a multifunction button cluster on the spoke. It’s best to engage cruise on open highways for steady speed control, avoiding crowded roads for safety. If unsure about button locations, check the car manual or search for a diagram online. Regular maintenance should include checking steering wheel button responsiveness to prevent lag or failure. When I switched cars, I took time to adapt to the new layout—once familiar, driving became effortless again.

When driving a new car, I quickly got the hang of the cruise control buttons. Simply put, they are prominently located near the steering wheel. Most cars have them set on the right side of the steering wheel. For example, the Honda Accord has a button labeled "CRUISE"—press it to turn the system on/off, then use SET to adjust the speed. Modern SUVs like the RAV4 might integrate the controls into the touch-sensitive area on the wheel spokes, requiring a bit more attention. For first-time use, it's recommended to try the buttons while parked to avoid distractions on the road. The typical operation process involves turning the system on with the power button, accelerating to the desired speed, and pressing SET to lock it in. Use the CANCEL button to deactivate. If the settings don’t work or the speed is incorrect, pull over and check to ensure no other buttons were accidentally pressed. Upgraded smart cruise control systems have more streamlined buttons but follow similar logic—always prioritize road safety while enjoying the convenience.

What is the speed limit on Jiaozhou Bay Bridge?

Jiaozhou Bay Bridge has a speed limit of 80 km/h, with some sections limited to 100 km/h. Here are the relevant details: Official speed increase: The maximum speed limit on Jiaozhou Bay Bridge was previously 80 km/h, which many drivers considered too low. Recently, some sections of the bridge have officially increased their speed limits. Using the Hongdao Interchange as the boundary, the eastern sections remain at 80 km/h, while the western sections have been adjusted from 80 km/h to 100 km/h for passenger vehicles. Important notes: This is the first speed increase since Jiaozhou Bay Bridge opened to traffic two years ago. Currently, only certain sections of the bridge have increased speed limits, not the entire length. Traffic police have installed speed limit signs, and drivers must pay attention to these signs to avoid speeding. In addition to adjusting speed limits, this change also affects lanes for large vehicles. Jiaozhou Bay Bridge has three lanes in each direction, and large vehicles are prohibited from using the leftmost lane.

How Long Can a Plugged Tubeless Tire Last?

3-5 months. A plugged tubeless tire can typically last for 3-5 months, and if repaired well, it may last one or two years. After that, the damaged area might start leaking again, requiring re-repair or direct replacement. Plugging a tire essentially involves using an awl to insert a glue-coated rubber strip directly into the tire puncture to seal the leak. Below is relevant information: Maintain specified tire pressure: Tubeless tires are made of high-quality rubber, offering good elasticity and flexibility, with a wide tolerance for pressure variations. Even at high pressure, they don't feel as stiff as conventional tires, so a pressure gauge must be used for checks. Unlike standard tires, tubeless tires won't naturally lose air unless punctured. Therefore, always use a pressure gauge to check and maintain the specified pressure during inflation, rather than relying on feel as with conventional tires. Avoid punctures: When using tubeless tires, avoid punctures from sharp objects and contact with acids or alkalis. Contamination by oils can also accelerate rubber degradation. Keep the tires clean to prevent rubber aging and extend their service life.

Can I Take the Theory Test Without Enrolling in a Driving School?

You can take the theory test without enrolling in a driving school, but students who register with a driving school generally receive more convenient services. Firstly, they don't need to schedule the test themselves—the driving school will help some students book the test for the same time slot and provide shuttle buses to the test center. Note that not every city allows self-study for direct examination. Cities where you can obtain a driver's license without enrolling in a driving school: As of now, the pilot regions in China that have opened self-study for direct examination include Tianjin, Baotou, Changchun, Nanjing, Ningbo, Ma'anshan, Fuzhou, Ji'an, Qingdao, Anyang, Wuhan, Nanning, Chengdu, Qiandongnan, Dali, and Baoji. Regulations on self-study for direct examination of driver's licenses: On December 10, 2015, the General Office of the State Council forwarded the "Opinions on Promoting the Reform of the Motor Vehicle Driver Training and Examination System" issued by the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Transport. The document proposed that pilot regions with the necessary conditions should allow self-study for direct examination of small car drivers, fully liberalize cross-regional examination, license renewal, replacement, and verification, and strive to make the process of learning to drive and obtaining a license more convenient and efficient for the public.

Can the Subject 4 Test Be Scheduled in Different Locations?

No. Since the driver's license must be applied for in the place of household registration, the Subject 4 test must be taken at the local vehicle management office. According to Article 36 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": The vehicle management office shall arrange the test according to the scheduled test location and time. After passing the Subject 1 test, the applicant can schedule the Subject 2 or Subject 3 road driving skills test. In some areas, applicants can simultaneously schedule the Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests and take them consecutively upon successful scheduling. Below is relevant information: Introduction: Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theoretical test or driver's theoretical test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the "Ministry of Public Security Order No. 139 of the People's Republic of China," the Subject 3 test was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civilization knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which assesses "driving ethics." Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called the Subject 4 test, although officially, there is no Subject 4. Test Content: The test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations, with a total score of 100 and a passing score of 90.

What are the four key technologies of autonomous driving?

They include key technologies such as environmental perception and sensor fusion, intelligent connected V2X, high-precision maps, and human-machine interaction technology (HMI). Here are the relevant introductions: Environmental Perception: The sensing system of autonomous driving needs to collect information around the vehicle and then make decisions (turning, changing lanes, accelerating, decelerating). Environmental perception includes the vehicle's own status, roads, pedestrians, traffic signals, traffic signs, traffic conditions, surrounding vehicles, etc. Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) Technology: Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technology is a new generation of information and communication technology that connects vehicles with everything. Here, V represents the vehicle, and X represents any object that interacts with the vehicle. Currently, X mainly includes vehicles, people, roadside traffic infrastructure, and networks. High-Precision Maps: High-precision maps possess accurate vehicle location information and rich road element data, which can help vehicles anticipate complex road information such as slope, curvature, and heading. Compared to traditional maps, they offer higher real-time performance. Human-Machine Interaction (HMI) Technology: Human-machine interaction technology, especially voice control, gesture recognition, and touchscreen technology, will be widely adopted in the global future automotive market. The ultimate goal of designing human-machine interaction screens for autonomous vehicles is to provide a good user experience, enhancing the user's driving pleasure or operational experience during driving.

Will Insurance Companies Compensate for Vehicles Damaged by Natural Disasters and Flooding?

Insurance companies compensate for vehicles damaged by natural disasters and flooding under certain conditions. If you have purchased vehicle damage insurance, according to relevant insurance regulations: the insurance company will compensate for vehicle damage caused by natural disasters (except earthquakes), including lightning strikes, storms, tornadoes, heavy rain, floods, ground collapse, cliff collapse, avalanche, hail, mudslides, landslides, tsunamis, and other disasters. No Compensation for Secondary Startup After Flooding: The insurance company will not compensate for losses caused by starting the insured vehicle in water that submerges the exhaust pipe or by improper operation after the vehicle is submerged, leading to engine damage. In other words, if the vehicle is started again after being submerged, causing damage, the insurance company will not be responsible for compensation. Therefore, when a vehicle is submerged in water, remember not to start it again to prevent water from flowing back and damaging the engine, as the insurance company will not compensate for such damage. Precautions for Driving in Rainy Weather: When driving through water at low speed, always use a low gear, maintain steady throttle, and pass through slowly. Do not stop or shift gears midway, as this can easily cause the vehicle to stall and damage the engine. When driving at low speed in heavy rain, due to the increased water on the road and reduced friction between the tires and the road surface, it is essential to reduce speed appropriately, hold the steering wheel steady, and prevent the vehicle from losing control.
