Car lights are not only used for lighting, but also as a means of civilized communication. Through the correct use of light language, the purpose of preventing traffic accidents and driving safely can be achieved. Below we will introduce 8 kinds of light languages that are commonly used in daily driving. Let’s learn them together.
8 commonly used lantern languages
1: Overtaking or the car in front does not move after the green light turns on. Signal: The headlights flash once.
2: It is found that there is a problem with the neighboring car. Light language: The headlights flash three times.
Three: When encountering strong lights at night, the eye light language: double flashes of the headlights as a reminder, double flashes of light to express dissatisfaction
Four: When driving, the light language should be: "Agree" when the headlights flash, "Reject" when the headlights flash continuously.
5: The car behind you is following too closely. Light language: Brake lights are on intermittently.
Six: Remind pedestrians or non-motorized vehicles to pay attention to the light language: continuously flashing headlights change from low beam to high beam.
Seven: Emergency braking: turn on the double flash in time
Eight: Thank you: double flash for three seconds
In addition to being used as a warning in emergency situations, the double flashing indicator light can also be used to express "thank you." Especially on congested road sections, when the car behind us gives way to us when merging, we can turn on the double flash for three seconds to express our gratitude.
What are the differences between various types of car lights? How to turn on them?
By looking at the pictures, we can easily find that there are some ingenuities in the design of these light signs. Some novice friends find it difficult to remember, so let’s analyze the memory tips of the light signs themselves.
Low-beam headlights: The circle on the logo represents the headlights, and the downward sloping lines represent light. Why are they sloping downward? Of course they are shining on the road in front, otherwise how can you drive at night if you can't see the road? Usually in For urban use.
High beam: The same circle represents the car light, and the horizontal line represents the light. Why is this light straight? High beam, as the name suggests, if you want to shine farther, the light must be directed straight ahead. It is usually used in the wild or in the suburbs where there is insufficient lighting from street lights.
Fog lights: The circle represents the car light, the horizontal line represents the light, and the curve represents the fog. In foggy days, the light does not shine far, so there is a curve on the logo blocking the light. Think about it, is this the truth? Regarding the front and rear fog lights, that would be better Remember: the light in the front is the front fog light, and the light in the back is the rear fog light. Is it simple? It is usually used in rain, fog, and snow. In extreme weather, it is best to turn on the fog lights instead of the double flash lights.
Width indicator light: As the name suggests, isn't the width indicator light a light that indicates the width of the car? Similarly, the circle represents the car light, and the horizontal line represents the light. The light is distributed to both sides. Isn't it just like the four left and right lights of a car that are turned on to indicate the width? Usually Use it just after night falls.

There are two types of mainstream car light switches on the market, one is represented by German cars, and the other is represented by Japanese cars. Let’s first look at the car lights represented by German models:
As shown in the picture, just turn the switch clockwise to the desired light position. For fog lights, you need to press the fog light button. Press and hold it to turn on. For the fog lights in the second picture, you need to twist the switch to the width indicator light or low beam light, and then pull it outward. Pull it once to turn on the front fog lights, and pull it twice to turn on the front and rear fog lights.
Let’s take a look at the car light switches represented by Japanese cars:
The leftmost piece belongs to the knob switch. The light is based on the position facing the horizontal line. From bottom to top, it is: off, width indicator light, low beam light, and light automatic. The knob on the right is the fog light and emergency warning light. The switches, from bottom to top, are: off, front fog lights, rear fog lights, and emergency warning lights. The top one is the high beam, and the arrow means pushing it forward. No matter what kind of car it is, the high beam switch is pushed forward.
