Generally, the instructor is responsible when a training vehicle is damaged. Here is a detailed analysis of the situation: 1. Instructor is in the vehicle: The instructor's presence helps ensure safety and allows for timely handling of issues. However, in sudden situations, anyone's reaction may be limited, and accidents may still occur. In such cases, the repair costs are usually the responsibility of the instructor. 2. Instructor is not in the vehicle: If the instructor is not in the vehicle, it constitutes dereliction of duty, and both the instructor and the driving school must bear responsibility. 3. Other situations: Malicious damage by the student. If the student causes severe damage to the vehicle due to reckless operation during practice, despite the instructor's proper guidance, the student should compensate for the repair costs.

Can a 125cc motorcycle use car engine oil?

125cc motorcycles cannot use car engine oil. Here is a detailed explanation of the reasons why 125cc motorcycles cannot use car engine oil: 1. Different structures: A car's engine is lubricated separately from other components, while a motorcycle's engine shares lubrication with other parts. Therefore, car engine oil and motorcycle engine oil operate on different principles. Improper use may cause wear to the motorcycle. 2. Different cooling effects: A car engine dissipates heat using a radiator, whereas a motorcycle relies solely on air cooling, which is significantly less effective. Additionally, a motorcycle's oil capacity is smaller than a car's, further limiting its cooling performance. As a result, the cooling requirements for motorcycle engine oil differ from those of car engine oil. 3. Different lubrication effects: Motorcycles generally operate at higher RPMs than cars, so the oil used in motorcycles must meet specific lubrication requirements. Using car engine oil without consideration may lead to excessive wear on the motorcycle.

What is the difference between 91v and 94v?

Here is a detailed introduction to the differences between 91v and 94v: 1. Load Index: 91 indicates a tire load index of 615kg, while 94 indicates a maximum load capacity of 670kg. 2. Similarity: The 'V' in both refers to the speed rating, with a maximum speed of 240km/h. Below is additional information about tire functions: 1. Load-bearing: Supports the entire weight of the vehicle, withstands the vehicle's load, and transmits forces and moments in other directions. 2. Transmission: Transmits traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheel and the road surface, improving the vehicle's power, braking, and off-road capabilities. Works with the vehicle's suspension to mitigate impacts during driving and dampen vibrations. 3. Vibration damping: Protects vehicle components from severe vibrations and premature damage, adapts to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduces driving noise, and ensures safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.

What are the precautions for parking in snowy weather?

Precautions for parking in snowy weather are as follows: Do not use the handbrake: In snowy or rainy weather, after driving, there may be some water accumulation in the brake discs and calipers. If the handbrake is applied, the accumulated water may freeze when the temperature drops at night. When starting the vehicle the next day, this can easily damage the braking system. Depending on the slope of the road, you can choose to leave the car in forward or reverse gear. For automatic transmission cars, bricks or wooden blocks can be placed under the wheels. Protect the headlights and windows: After a night of snowfall, the windshield may be covered with a thick layer of snow, making it troublesome to clean the next morning. Before parking, you can place a large dry towel on the glass, so that the next morning you can simply remove the towel. At the same time, the headlights should also be protected. In snowy weather, the low temperature can cause snow on the headlights to freeze, making it difficult to clean when needed. Avoid using car covers if possible: Many people buy car covers for their vehicles, but it is best not to use them in heavy snowfall. The accumulated snow can become very thick and heavy, making it difficult to remove the cover when you need to use the car. Even if you manage to remove the cover forcibly, it may damage the cover.

What Causes the Handbrake Warning Light to Illuminate?

When the brake system fault indicator light in a car illuminates, it indicates that there may be a fault in the system. If the brake warning light comes on, you can first check whether the brake pads have worn to their limit or if there is an issue with the ABS sensor (such as wiring contact or the sensor itself). Severely Worn Brake Pads: Brake pads come in two types: those with sensor wires and those without. For those with sensor wires, when the brake pads wear down to the limit, the sensor wire automatically completes the circuit, triggering the fault light. Brake pads without sensor wires do not provide an automatic warning, but they produce a metallic scraping sound (often described as a "grinding" noise) to indicate that they need replacement. Low Brake Fluid Level: Brake fluid plays a crucial role in the car's braking system. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the force applied is transmitted by the piston in the master cylinder through the brake fluid to the wheel cylinders at each wheel, causing the brake pads to contact the wheels and stop the vehicle. Insufficient brake fluid can also lead to noticeably reduced braking power, and in severe cases, a complete loss of braking force. This issue can be resolved by promptly replenishing the brake fluid.

Is it okay to hit an illegally parked car and run away?

It is considered a hit-and-run behavior. While the other party's illegal parking is a violation subject to administrative penalties, you should still compensate for the damage caused to their vehicle according to your liability. Here's how to handle the situation: 1. Take photos as evidence: No matter what vehicle you're using, if you hit someone else's parked car, never flee just because the owner isn't present. At the accident scene, you should immediately take these three photos: one of the scratched area, one of each side of the vehicle body, and one each of the front and rear of the car. These photos can serve as evidence of the damage caused by the scrape and prevent the owner from falsely claiming other damages for extortion. 2. Call the traffic police and insurance company: In case of a scrape, immediately call the traffic police or your insurance company and wait for professionals to arrive to photograph and assess the vehicle damage. This can prevent the owner from inflating the price for private settlement and subsequent extortion attempts, while ensuring reasonable compensation. If you have insurance, this is when your insurance company should step in to handle the relevant claims, so you don't have to worry about paying out of pocket.
