In the last article, the editor took everyone on a journey of "Seven A Swords Under Tianshan" and solved the problem of [selection of headlights]. Unexpectedly, one wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen. Just as the car owners are riding on the "Baoqi Mao" with bright eyes, preparing to gallop on the battlefield, an ambush army appears in the middle of the road. Before they can see clearly, they already know that this person It is the famous "Headlight Killer"! It blinded the editor's titanium eyes... Well, romance is romance. The use of car lights is indeed very important. Wrong use of high beams can even endanger the lives of yourself and others. Today, the editor will talk about 5 safe use tips for vehicle lights.
1. Don’t be lazy when using lights during the day
Many car owners are lazy when using lights during the day and don't turn on them if they can. The editor knows that people don’t buy spicy strips just to save on electricity bills, but because they have little awareness and are lazy! In fact, the safe driving of vehicles during the day is inseparable from the cooperation and cooperation of various vehicle lights.
Veteran drivers... all know that during the day, the turn signal is most used.
Everyone on earth knows that turn signals are needed to convey information when a vehicle starts, stops, changes direction and lane. But the cruel reality tells the editor that many drivers now don’t even turn on the turn signal! (Have you forgotten the coach’s roar back then? Do you have to have the police give you a ticket to be happy?!). The turn signal is an important "mouthpiece" for your car to convey information. If you are too lazy to use it, your car will be equivalent to a mute, and the risk factor will skyrocket!
The turn signal also takes into account the hazard indicator function (commonly known as double flash). After pressing the switch, the turn signals in all directions outside the car will flash at the same time to remind everyone to pay attention to the car. If you encounter an emergency or find something abnormal in your car, remember to turn on the double flashers first and then pull over.
In addition to the turn signals, high beams are also used when driving during the day. At this time, they are mainly used as a warning "flash light". When the vehicle speed is fast or the warning target is far away, flashing lights may make it easier for the other party to pay attention than honking the siren. Of course, if your car has daytime running lights, they can be turned on to improve vehicle recognition and safety.
2. Don’t overuse lights at night
Here’s the key point: Night is the peak time for everyone to use car lights, and it’s also the time when traffic accidents are most likely to be caused by abuse or misuse of lights. Let’s take a look at what are the tips for using lights when driving at night?
(1) In the evening when the weather turns dark and the street lights are not on, the car's width lights should be turned on. The width lights in front of the car are white or warm, and behind the car are red with low brightness. It is also best to turn on the width indicator lights when temporarily parking on the roadside with poor lighting.
(2) Here comes the protagonist. As the big brother, headlights are almost synonymous with car lights. Of course, headlights are divided into two types: low beam and high beam. Low beam is a law-abiding little daughter-in-law who doesn't cause trouble and is very capable. Most of the time, low beam can be used for night lighting. However, high-beam headlights have numerous disadvantages, and can even be aggressive. Improper driving may lead to car crashes and fatalities.
Attention! When driving on normal roads at night, just turn on the low beam headlights. So under what circumstances should you turn on the high beam? The editor has summarized the suggestions from experienced drivers. Basically, two conditions must be met: First, the road is dim and the lighting is seriously insufficient. At this time, no other vehicles or pedestrians can be seen within the low beam range, which cannot satisfy your driving requirements. " monitoring” requirements.
Don't abuse high beams for the so-called wide field of vision. Whether there is an oncoming car or when following a car, (the rearview mirror will reflect all the high beams of the car behind you into the driver's eyes). The brightness of the high beams And the angle will dazzle the driver and lose most of his field of vision. To put it bluntly, it means temporary blindness. I believe everyone knows the consequences of a blind driver.
3. Avoid using flashy lights in foggy weather
Fog lights are a color maniac. The fog lights I have seen on the street include blue, pink, green, yellow... and no less than six or seven types. Since we are talking about color, be careful not to use red lights on the front of the car and white lights on the rear. This will make it difficult for people to identify the front and rear of your car. Do not use green lights for the entire vehicle. Stop at red lights and go at green lights. Do not mislead others. The penetrating power of blue lights is the weakest. I don’t know what the owners of blue fog lights think. Pink is okay for safety, but why does pink feel like a special industry...
4. There are restricted areas for using lights on rainy days
Finally, let’s talk about rainy days. Try not to turn on the fog lights and high beam lights on rainy days, but turn on the width lights.
On rainy days, the road surface is wet, causing the specular reflection to be much greater than the diffuse reflection. Your car lights cannot illuminate the road clearly (it is completely white). At this time, turn on the wide beam or low beam and slowly drive away. I believe those who have studied physics We all understand that no matter what lights are turned on at this time, they will not have much effect on road lighting. Turning on high beams or fog lights will only cause glare and danger to other vehicles.
5. A little guide to self-protection
When the car behind you turns on high beam for a long time, in order to avoid light stimulation, you should change the angle of the rearview mirror in time to reduce the dazzling feeling.
When meeting a car, the driver's vision will drop instantaneously due to the light of the opposite vehicle, and the visibility will be low. At this time, the driver's eyes can avoid the direction of the axis of the illuminated light, use a visor to block it, or equip it with an anti-glare mirror, which will provide certain anti-glare effects. Effect.
6. Use limericks for lighting
In order to make it easier for everyone to remember the basic rules for using car lights, the editor specially found a practical limerick. In fact, in the final analysis, it is still a matter of safety awareness. Stay safe in your heart and be happy forever!
