Depending on the number of lanes, from left to right, they are sequentially designated as the overtaking lane, fast lane, and slow lane (travel lane). Overtaking lane: Located in the innermost (leftmost) lane of the highway. An overtaking lane is only set when the road meets the standards for a bidirectional six-lane highway. The overtaking lane is provided for vehicles that are overtaking or traveling at the required speed. However, some drivers occupy the overtaking lane for extended periods, forcing vehicles that need to overtake to do so from the relatively slower travel lane. This increases the speed difference between the overtaking vehicle and the vehicle being overtaken, raising the risk of accidents. Fast lane: In a two-lane same-direction configuration, the left lane is the fast lane, and the right lane is the slow lane. For three or more same-direction lanes, the leftmost lane is the fast lane, the middle lane is the travel lane, and the rightmost lane is the slow lane. The middle lane may also serve as a fast or slow lane, while the far right may only have a travel lane without a slow lane, or there may be no fast lane at all. Travel lanes and slow lanes can be designed separately, but fast lanes cannot be designed alone—meaning that in same-direction lanes, the presence of a fast lane implies the existence of a travel lane or slow lane. Slow lane (travel lane): A travel lane consists of lanes, which are sections designed for single-file vehicle traffic. Travel lanes include only driving lanes and overtaking lanes, excluding special-purpose lanes like steep slope lanes or speed change lanes. Due to their different functions, these are not counted as part of the travel lane. Therefore, in China, the width of a travel lane is calculated by multiplying the number of lanes by the lane width.

Are There Specifications and Models for Antifreeze?

Antifreeze does not have specifications or models. Below is an introduction to the functions of antifreeze and precautions for its use: Functions of Antifreeze: The full name of antifreeze should be antifreeze coolant, meaning a coolant with antifreeze function. It provides anti-corrosion protection for cooling system components, prevents scale formation, avoids reducing the heat dissipation effect of the radiator, and ensures the engine operates within the normal temperature range. Precautions for Using Antifreeze: Use antifreeze that meets quality standards and is within its validity period, avoid diluting it with water, vehicles using antifreeze can add distilled water, deionized water, or cold boiled water, and do not use if particulate precipitation occurs.

How to Remove Adhesive Residue After Peeling Off Car Film?

Methods to remove residual adhesive from car film: Use organic solvents or industrial alcohol; use a hairdryer to soften the adhesive on the glass; use cotton or a cloth dipped in vinegar; gently wipe with a cloth soaked in ethyl acetate. Methods to remove old car film from car glass: Directly peel it off: Low-quality film is easier to handle, as its adhesive strength is not particularly strong, making removal relatively simple. High-quality car film is more difficult to remove and may require professional help or purchasing specialized tools with some experience. Remove with vinegar: Evenly apply vinegar to the adhesive with a cotton swab. Through the glass, you can immediately see the vinegar slowly spreading between the glass and the adhesive. Then, use the cotton swab to scrape back and forth over the adhesive. Soon, the adhesive will start to peel off, leaving minimal residue on the glass. A quick wipe with paper will restore the glass to a clean, shiny state. Remove with essential balm: Initially, there is no obvious reaction when essential balm comes into contact with the adhesive. Persistently apply the balm to the adhesive, then scrape with a cotton swab. Gradually, the adhesive will soften, and parts of it will start to come off. With continuous application and scraping, the reaction speeds up, and the adhesive can be completely removed in about 2 minutes. Remove with alcohol: Brush alcohol onto the adhesive on the glass, and you will immediately see the adhesive slowly soften and dissolve. Gently peel it off by hand, and the adhesive will come off cleanly from the glass.

What is the ground clearance of the 2019 CR-V?

19 CR-V has a minimum ground clearance of 193 millimeters. The minimum ground clearance of the CR-V refers to the distance between the lowest point (excluding the wheels) and the supporting surface, which is used to indicate the vehicle's ability to pass over obstacles such as rocks and tree stumps without collision. A higher ground clearance of the CR-V means better off-road capability, but if the ground clearance is too high, the stability at high speeds will decrease. The Honda CR-V is a classic urban SUV model produced by Dongfeng Honda. It is equipped with Michelin Latitude series SUV tires and comes with two engine options: a recalibrated 2.0L and 2.4L. The dimensions of the CR-V are 4585 mm in length, 1855 mm in width, and 1679 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660 mm. Generally, the ground clearance of sedans ranges between 110 mm and 150 mm, while SUVs have a ground clearance between 200 mm and 250 mm. However, the ground clearance of the CR-V is not static; it also depends on the load condition. Therefore, changes in the CR-V's load should be considered when evaluating ground clearance. When selecting a vehicle, ground clearance can be one of the reference factors. The choice should depend on the vehicle's intended use and road conditions. For well-paved urban roads, a vehicle with lower ground clearance can enhance stability and comfort. For long-distance travel or driving in areas with poor road conditions, a vehicle with higher ground clearance is preferable to avoid scraping or damaging the undercarriage.

What to Do When Encountering Emergencies While Driving

Solutions for emergencies encountered while driving: Brake Failure: During driving, due to improper driving methods or poor vehicle quality, brake failure can easily occur. In the event of brake failure, the first priority is to stop the vehicle by any means necessary. Avoid keeping the car in a high gear. You can first press the accelerator to shift to a lower gear, then reduce the throttle. Throughout this series of operations, pay attention to the direction of the vehicle to avoid injuring pedestrians. Skidding: While driving, especially on rainy days, skidding is particularly prone to occur. If skidding occurs, to prevent rollover, the first step is to reduce speed by gradually decreasing the throttle. Then, steer the wheel in the opposite direction of the skid until the skidding stops before resuming normal driving.

How Long Can a Dash Cam Save Recordings?

The duration a dash cam can save recordings depends on the capacity of its memory card and the set video resolution, typically ranging from 3 days to about a week. Generally, the larger the memory capacity, the longer the storage time. Taking 1080P video quality as an example, a 16GB memory card can usually record for 100 minutes, a 32GB card for 200 minutes, and a 64GB card for 400 minutes. Currently, dash cams on the market record in a loop. The recorded videos are segmented into clips of certain durations, such as 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, or 10 minutes, and stored in the memory card. When the memory card is full, newly recorded videos will directly overwrite the oldest video clips, ensuring continuous recording without interruption due to insufficient storage space.
