The roof molding of the eighth-generation Accord does not leak water. Below is a detailed introduction to the functions of the roof molding: 1. Aesthetic Covering: The roof molding serves an aesthetic covering purpose. Its presence or absence can indicate the welding process of the vehicle body. Experienced experts can even estimate the diameter of the weld nugget based on the width of the roof molding, which is the most important parameter reflecting the welding strength of the vehicle body. If the roof and side panels are joined using laser welding technology, due to energy focusing, the weld seam width is less than 1mm, reducing overlapping sheet materials and requiring welding on only one side of the flange (single-sided welding), resulting in good appearance quality. In this case, there is no need to install a roof molding. 2. Rainwater Guidance: The molding does not have a waterproof function but can help guide rainwater.

Can You Practice Driving Without Passing Subject 1 in Driving School?

In principle, you cannot practice driving without passing Subject 1. Familiarity with traffic rules is a prerequisite, as only after mastering them can you drive better on the road. Therefore, theoretical knowledge must be learned and the exam passed first. However, to save time, some driving schools like 58 Auto may allow students to practice driving while simultaneously preparing for Subject 1. It's best to consult with the driving school for specifics. Below is an introduction to the driving license test subjects: Subject 1 tests knowledge of road traffic safety laws and regulations; Subject 2 is the field driving skills test, including reverse parking and parallel parking; Subject 3 is the road driving skills test, covering preparations before starting and straight-line driving; Subject 4 is the safe and civilized driving common sense test, open to individuals aged 18 and above.

What are the detailed introductions of BYD's eco and sport modes?

Here are the detailed introductions of BYD's eco and sport modes: 1. EV+ECO mode is the energy-saving mode in pure electric drive. In this mode, the car uses electric power to drive, and the onboard computer adjusts the engine parameters to reduce engine efficiency, thereby saving energy. This is the most energy-efficient mode for the vehicle. 2. EV+SPORT mode is the sport mode in pure electric drive. In this mode, electric power is used to provide energy, and the onboard computer adjusts the engine parameters to improve engine efficiency, thereby enhancing vehicle performance. 3. HEV+ECO mode is the energy-saving mode in hybrid drive. The vehicle uses a combination of electric power and fuel as hybrid power sources. The onboard computer adjusts the engine parameters to reduce engine efficiency, thereby saving energy. 4. HEV+SPORT is the sport mode in hybrid drive. The vehicle uses a combination of electric power and fuel as hybrid power sources. The onboard computer adjusts the engine parameters to increase energy consumption and enhance horsepower. This is the mode with the highest energy consumption.

Do Automatic Cars Use Handbrakes?

Automatic cars do use handbrakes. The correct way to use a handbrake: 1. When pulling the handbrake, the button on the handbrake lever will move back and forth due to the spring inside. To prolong the lifespan of the spring and the button, press the button with your thumb while pulling the handbrake. 2. Avoid yanking the handbrake abruptly, as this can damage it over time. The correct method is to pull the handbrake gently and smoothly until you hear a clear clicking sound. The handbrake, professionally known as an auxiliary brake, operates differently from the main brake system. It uses a steel cable connected to the rear brake shoes to apply braking force to the vehicle. Prolonged use of the handbrake can cause the steel cable to undergo plastic deformation, which is irreversible. This long-term usage can reduce its effectiveness and increase the handbrake's travel distance.

How many seat belts are there in the back of a car?

If the car is a 5-seater, there are usually 3 seat belts in the back seat. The seat belt in the middle position of the back seat comes in two forms: one is a two-point type, and the other is a three-point type. The retraction points of these two types of seat belts are different from those of the seat belts on the two sides, so they are often overlooked. Here are the correct ways to use seat belts: When using a seat belt, first adjust the height of the seat belt. The shoulder belt must cross the middle of the shoulder. In the event of sudden braking, if the seat belt is too high, it will strangle the neck, and if it is too low, it cannot prevent the body from leaning forward. Moreover, the waist belt must be fastened below the abdomen, especially for pregnant women and overweight people. Incorrect usage can easily lead to injuries.
