Why Should Right-Turning Vehicles Yield to Left-Turning Vehicles?

Right-turning vehicles should yield to left-turning vehicles because the turning path of left-turning vehicle A is longer. If right-turning vehicle B does not yield to the left-turning vehicle, vehicle A would have to remain stopped in the middle of the intersection for a longer time, causing traffic congestion. Below are relevant introductions about road traffic regulations: 1. Penalty: According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," failing to yield as required results in a 3-point deduction. 2. Rules: (1) When there are traffic signs or markings, yield to the party with the right of way. (2) In the absence of traffic signs or markings, stop and observe before entering the intersection, yielding to vehicles coming from the right.

Having driven for over thirty years, this rule is deeply ingrained in my bones. The principle of yielding to left-turning vehicles when making a right turn is primarily rooted in safety considerations. When turning right, the driver's field of vision is relatively unobstructed, allowing you to see vehicles and pedestrians approaching from the left. In contrast, drivers making a left turn must cross the opposing lane during the maneuver, exposing themselves to greater risks. If right-turning vehicles fail to yield, left-turning cars could be struck or cause traffic chaos. I've witnessed numerous minor collisions at intersections in my hometown's small city due to this, but once everyone consciously adhered to the rule, accidents significantly decreased. This regulation also enhances overall traffic efficiency, ensuring smoother flow at intersections. Particularly during rainy days or low-light nighttime conditions, prioritizing left-turning vehicles becomes even more critical, as they require additional time to cross the road. Thanks to this design, urban commuting has become safer and more stable.

Why doesn't the BYD Han DM use blade batteries?

Actually, it's because the Han DM has an additional power system, making it difficult to reserve a large amount of space to ensure its range, performance, and other conditions are met before using blade batteries. Therefore, the Han DM version uses the traditional BYD lithium iron phosphate battery. Since its launch, the Han series currently has two types of power models: one is the Han EV, and the other is the Han DM (plug-in hybrid). The model features a wheelbase of over 2.9 meters, low fuel consumption, pure electric driving capability, high performance with a 0-100 km/h acceleration in 4.7 seconds, and a price of less than 240,000 yuan.

BMW 5 Series Upgrade and Modification for Keyless Comfort Access System?

Comfort Access, also known as keyless entry, primarily enables the vehicle to detect the key without altering the original car key. Simply by carrying the key and approaching the vehicle, the system will activate upon proximity to the door. Once detected, the owner only needs to reach into the unlocking sensor area, and the door will automatically unlock (accompanied by a flash of the emergency lights), allowing entry into the vehicle. Conversely, after turning off the engine and exiting the vehicle, a simple touch to the locking sensor area will automatically lock the doors (with the emergency lights flashing once again).

Is the 1.6L engine in Changan Oushang X5 a Blue Whale engine?

No, it is not a Blue Whale engine. According to the data provided by Changan's official website, the 1.6L engine used in the Changan Oushang X5 is the JL478QEP model. Below are the differences between turbocharging and naturally aspirated engines: 1. Power: Under the same displacement, turbocharged engines provide stronger power than naturally aspirated ones. 2. Maintenance: The stronger power of turbocharged engines may lead to faster performance and reliability degradation compared to naturally aspirated engines, and the later maintenance costs are usually slightly higher. 3. Fuel consumption: In terms of fuel consumption, under the same displacement, turbocharged engines are more fuel-efficient when frequently driven on highways.
