Yesterday, a friend sent a private message to Brother Meow and wrote a long paragraph. He hoped that Brother Meow would talk to you about the problem of abusing lights, because the problem of abusing lights when using a car is still quite serious. Today, Brother Miao will respond to this friend's request and analyze the more common problems of misuse of lights in daily use of cars. I hope it can attract everyone's attention and use lights in a civilized and rational manner.
First of all, the easiest thing to abuse is double flash. Brother Miao found that double flashing has become a universal tool in daily use of cars. No matter what happens, double flashing should be turned on immediately. Especially when the visibility is poor in foggy weather, many drivers will immediately think of double flashing instead of double flashing. Fog lights, many drivers even don’t know about fog lights and think that fog lights have been cancelled. But in fact, our country’s automobile standards clearly stipulate that as long as the car can be sold legally, it must be equipped with rear fog lights.
Since fog lights are red and have stronger penetrating power than yellow double flashes, when visibility is poor in rainy and foggy weather, fog lights should be used first before double flashes. If everyone uses double flashers and a car breaks down and uses double flashers, it will be difficult to judge whether the car is moving or stopped, and it may easily cause a traffic accident.
In the second case, the abuse of high beam lights is also relatively common. Although sometimes you may forget to return the high beam after using it, this is understandable. Including Brother Meow himself sometimes forgets to return the high beam after using the high beam, but the car on the opposite side flashes for you. The light prompts. At this time, you must check whether the high beam is off and affecting other people's homes. Then you must turn the high beam back on in time.
In addition, some friends adjust the low beam to a higher level, so even though they turn on the low beam, when others see it, it does look like a high beam. In this case, it is recommended that you adjust the height of the headlights appropriately. When using it, if the low beam is really too high, lower it a little to avoid disturbing other people.
There are also some friends who think that their lights are not bright enough, so they change the bulbs to brighter ones, but without adding a lens, the scattering of the bulbs is particularly serious. Even though you turn on the low beam, because the bulbs are very bright and flashing, other people will not notice them after they are turned on. It will also think that you are using high beam. Brother Meow does not advocate this kind of behavior. If you want to change the lights, I suggest that you must test it before officially going on the road.
The third situation is the misuse of turn signals. Do not turn on the turn signal when changing lanes, turn on the turn signal while changing lanes, or leave the turn signal off after changing lanes. This will give a serious wrong signal to the car behind you, because the turn signal is a very important signal light in a car. If If everyone doesn't pay much attention to this aspect, it is very easy for the car next to them to misjudge and cause a traffic accident.
So before turning, you are not required to strictly follow the rules. Turn on the turn signal for at least three seconds to give the car behind you time to react. After all, the turn signal is not telling you that I am turning, but telling you that I am going to turn. is the real purpose of the turn signal.
The fourth situation is the misuse of fog lights. Turn on the fog lights under any circumstances, especially when driving in the city at night. The visibility is already very good. If the car in front turns on the fog lights, you really have the urge to poke his lights because of the fog lights. The light is particularly dazzling and will make you feel particularly uncomfortable. It is good to develop the habit of using fog lights, but you must remember to turn off the fog lights in time after using them, otherwise the cars behind you will really suffer.
