Currently, there are no highways in China with a speed limit of 140. Precautions for driving on highways: 1. Pay attention to traffic regulations and affix the novice driver sign; 2. Find an experienced driver to accompany you; 3. Inspect the vehicle before entering the highway; 4. Be aware of the speed limit when driving on the highway; 5. Pay attention to signs, markings, and warning signs; 6. In case of emergency stops or accidents, ensure safety; 7. When exiting the highway, merge lanes in advance. Highway driving precautions include: 1. The driver and front-seat passenger should fasten their seat belts, and the driver should not use a mobile phone; 2. Avoid sudden steering wheel movements while driving at high speeds; 3. Do not change lanes arbitrarily; when changing lanes or overtaking, turn signals must be activated in advance; 4. Only use adjacent lanes for overtaking and return to the driving lane immediately after overtaking; vehicles must not straddle or drive on lane dividers; 5. Do not reverse, drive against traffic, make U-turns or turns across the central divider, conduct test drives, or drive training vehicles; do not overtake or park on ramps; 6. Maintain a distance of at least 100 meters between vehicles; when the speed is below 100 km/h, the distance from the vehicle in front can be appropriately reduced but must not be less than 50 meters.

I remember when driving on highways in Europe, some sections have a speed limit of 140 kilometers per hour, such as certain parts of the German Autobahn. The roads are wide with fewer cars, allowing for faster driving. However, driving at such high speeds really requires full concentration, maintaining a safe distance, and not tailgating, otherwise, accidents can be severe. In China, highways generally have a speed limit of 120 km/h, not as high as 140, so it's important to remind everyone traveling abroad to pay close attention to speed limit signs and not to confuse them. At high speeds, wind noise is particularly loud, and wearing headphones or lowering the windows might distract attention. Plus, on rainy days when the roads are slippery, never accelerate. Personally, I always make it a habit to check tire pressure and brake responsiveness before driving. Safety should always come first when driving on highways.

Last year, I went on a self-driving trip to Italy, where there were sections of the highway with a speed limit of 150 km/h. Driving there felt exhilarating, almost like flying, with open views and few cars. However, you had to strictly follow the rules, or the hefty fines wouldn't be worth it. In Europe, the highway network is well-developed, and driving at high speeds is quite an experience. Coming back to China, where the speed limit is 120 km/h, it feels quite conservative in comparison. Other similar places, like Poland, might have speed limits around 130 km/h, approaching 140 km/h, but the specifics vary by country. When planning a road trip, it's best to check map apps or local regulations rather than relying solely on intuition, especially for beginners who shouldn't recklessly test high-speed driving as it lowers safety margins. Be extra cautious when traveling with family, as high speeds can easily cause motion sickness—pack some snacks and water to help manage it.

A speed limit of 140 km/h is only implemented in a few regions, such as certain areas in Europe with excellent road conditions. This setting primarily considers safety factors: straight roads with low traffic volume and low accident rates. Driving above the speed limit carries high risks—at 140 km/h, the braking distance is significantly longer than at 120 km/h, making it harder to react to sudden situations. I often remind friends not to pursue thrills while driving, especially on highways where fatigue should be avoided, and speed should be reduced further under poor nighttime visibility. China’s common speed limit of 120 km/h is more reasonable, prioritizing public safety. When choosing highway routes, check the weather forecast—avoid speeding during heavy wind or rain. Also, regularly inspect tire wear or aging to prevent issues. Safe driving is the real way to peace of mind.

I've noticed that speed limits of 140 km/h are more common on highways in Europe, such as those in Germany. The setting of speed limits is linked to engineering design and local regulations: higher speeds are only permitted on roads that are wide, have fewer curves, and strong signaling. In China, road standards typically limit speeds to 120 km/h, based on safety considerations in design speed. While driving at high speeds can be exhilarating, it's essential to ensure that the car performs well, with responsive brakes and sufficient power. Modified or older cars might not be stable. Different countries have different regulations, reflecting their traffic development and safety awareness. When driving on foreign roads, it's important to read the manual first and not drive recklessly. Regular maintenance like changing the engine oil and checking tires can improve stability at high speeds. At higher speeds, vibrations increase, so adjusting the car's systems for stability can make the ride more comfortable.

Is there a warning icon for low windshield washer fluid?

Windshield washer fluid, also known as wiper fluid, generally does not trigger a warning in most vehicles when running low. However, some higher-end models may display a symbol resembling a windshield spray or a low washer fluid warning on the instrument panel. Below is more information about windshield washer fluid: 1. Concept: Windshield washer fluid is a consumable automotive product. High-quality windshield washer fluid primarily consists of water, alcohol, ethylene glycol, corrosion inhibitors, and various surfactants. It is commonly referred to as glass water. 2. Functions: Windshield washer fluid typically features wetting, penetrating, and solubilizing properties, enabling effective cleaning and dirt removal. The presence of alcohol and ethylene glycol significantly lowers the freezing point of the liquid, providing antifreeze protection and quickly dissolving frost.

What are the tips for the 100-meter gear shifting operation in Subject 3?

There are the following tips for the 100-meter gear shifting operation in Subject 3: 1. Gear control: When the driver starts the vehicle from the 100-meter starting line, the gear should be accurately shifted into first gear. 2. Steering wheel control: It is necessary to control the steering wheel with one hand (left hand). Because during the 100-meter gear shifting operation, the right hand is always operating the gear lever (shift lever) and has no time to assist the left hand in controlling the steering wheel. 3. Gear lever control: The driver's right hand should always hold the gear lever, which can shorten the time for gear shifting. 4. Clutch control: During the process of upshifting, except for the acceleration process in first and second gears, there is basically no acceleration process in other gears. After upshifting, the driver only needs to lift the clutch pedal to the highest point and then quickly press the clutch pedal again to perform the next upshift action.

Can a 60-volt car be equipped with a 48-volt battery?

60-volt cars cannot be equipped with 48-volt batteries. Introduction to Automotive Batteries: Automotive batteries are an indispensable part of vehicles. The batteries used in cars include traditional lead-acid batteries and maintenance-free batteries. These batteries use lead-calcium alloy grids, which reduce water decomposition and evaporation during charging. The sealed structure of the battery case minimizes the release of sulfuric acid gas. Precautions for Battery Usage: Reduce electrical consumption when the engine is off; clean and replace the battery regularly; vehicles should be used periodically. Even when the car is restricted or not in use, it should not be left idle for extended periods, as this will gradually deplete the battery's charge.

Is It Normal for a New Car to Have Strange Noises Inside?

It is not normal for a new car to have strange noises inside; new cars generally do not produce unexplained noises. Here are a few reasons why a new car might have strange noises: 1. Improper operation by the owner: Such as inaccurate gear shifting, half-engaged gears, or pressing the accelerator with the handbrake engaged, etc., which can cause loud strange noises while driving the new car. 2. The engine oil dipstick not being tightened after use: The coolant cap not being properly closed after adding coolant can also cause strange noises in the new car. 3. Fuel system malfunction: The new car has been parked for a long time after purchase, some even in an open environment. Long-term outdoor parking can allow water molecules to seep into the fuel system, causing malfunctions.
