According to relevant laws in China, in the event of a collision between a reversing vehicle and a straight-moving vehicle, the reversing party is generally held fully responsible. Below is relevant information: 1. When parking in a parking lot, first estimate the width of the parking space, check for any obstacles behind, whether there are vehicles parked on either side, and whether the length suits your vehicle model. If visibility is poor at night, it's best to step out and observe the exact position before reversing. 2. When reversing, try to choose to reverse from the left side (when conditions permit). The left side makes it easier for the driver to observe. During the reversing process, first check the rear and then pay attention to the side mirrors. The horizontal distance on the right side should be larger than on the left. Because the turning radius of the front wheels is larger than that of the rear wheels, the front of the car will swing outward when reversing. If this is not taken into account, the right side is prone to scratches.

Can I claim insurance for a cracked car windshield?

If there is no accident and it's just the glass that is damaged, you can only claim compensation if you have purchased separate glass breakage insurance. Here are some relevant details about car windshields: 1. Introduction: Car windshield damage falls under separate glass breakage insurance, which covers compensation when the front windshield or window glass is broken alone. General car insurance typically requires comprehensive damage, and if only the glass is broken, it will not be compensated. 2. Causes of spontaneous cracking: Spontaneous cracking of car windshields usually occurs at the edges of the glass, caused by the heating and cooling process during laminated glass manufacturing. The glass develops internal tensile stress and surface compressive stress, which remain stable when balanced. If unbalanced, spontaneous cracking can occur. If a car windshield is exposed to intense sunlight and then comes into contact with cold water, the extreme temperature change can also cause the glass to crack. If the front windshield cracks spontaneously, you should immediately pull over and stop the car.

Do You Need to Press the Brake Pedal All the Way Down When Driving an Automatic Transmission Car?

When driving an automatic transmission car, you do not need to press the brake pedal all the way down. Here is some relevant information about braking in automatic transmission cars: 1. Introduction: (1) The gear shifting actions in an automatic transmission car are controlled by the TCU (Transmission Control Unit), and there is no need to press the brake pedal. In manual mode, the TCU performs gear shifts automatically based on the shift curve, while the driver determines the timing of the shift. (2) To prevent accidental shifting from P (Park) to D (Drive) or R (Reverse), automatic transmission vehicles are equipped with a shift lock function, which requires the brake pedal to be pressed before shifting from P to any other gear. 2. Precautions: Lightly pressing the brake pedal will prompt the computer to downshift automatically based on engine load and vehicle speed. It is not advisable to frequently or rapidly press the brake or accelerator pedal all the way down in an automatic transmission car. The automatic transmission relies on the engagement and disengagement of clutches and brakes for power transmission. Frequent rapid pressing or pressing all the way down can cause abrupt speed changes, leading to instant locking or incomplete disengagement of the brakes and clutches. This can result in severe wear and damage to the automatic transmission's mechanical components, as well as increase the temperature of the automatic transmission fluid (ATF), thereby shortening its service life.

Is There a Time Limit for Subject 2?

There is no overall time limit for Subject 2, but certain individual tasks have specified completion times. Below are the relevant details for Subject 2: 1. Introduction: (1) Exceeding 210 seconds for reverse parking into a garage results in failure. (2) Exceeding 90 seconds for parallel parking results in failure. (3) Taking your eyes off the direction of travel for more than 2 seconds during driving results in failure. (4) Failing to start within 10 seconds when there are no other vehicles or pedestrians affecting passage ahead results in failure. 2. Test Items: The test items for small vehicles (C1/C2) include reverse parking into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (commonly known as an S-curve).
