The turn signal is a warning light that reminds the surrounding vehicles and pedestrians to avoid when the motor vehicle is turning. When the turn signal is turned on, the light will flash repeatedly, which is to attract the attention of the surrounding people and avoid traffic accidents. Car owners must develop the habit of turning on the turn signal when driving on the road, and do not drive blindly.
● Under what circumstances do you need to turn on the turn signal?
The turn signal is the most commonly used light, which can clearly indicate the direction you are about to drive to the surrounding vehicles. However, in the process of driving, I found that many car owners do not turn on the turn signals very much, and even some car owners do not know when to use the turn signals, which brings great safety hazards to driving. Therefore, it is very necessary to clarify the use range of turn signals. Specifically, there are the following situations:
Tips:The main purpose of turning on the turn signal is to inform the rear vehicle that you are going to turn and pay attention to avoidance. Therefore, when preparing to turn, the lights should be turned on 10-20 seconds earlier, leaving enough time for the driver behind to react.
●How to check whether the turn signal is turned on in the car?
Judging whether you have turned on the turn signal is actually very simple, just look at the instrument to see if there is a turn indicator as shown in the figure above. This indicator is used to show the position of the vehicle's turn signals. Normally off. When the car owner turns on the turn signal, the indicator light will turn on the turn indicator in the corresponding direction at the same time. After the turn signal goes out, the indicator light will automatically turn off.
●Where is the turn signal switch? How to turn it on?
The turn signal switch is usually installed on the left side of the steering wheel, and its operation method can be attributed to the words "up" and "left". Indicates to turn left.However, with the development of automobiles, many automobiles have increased the double flashing light switch."One Touch Three Flashes"speed dial function.The driver only needs to lightly "tap" the stalk, and the turn signal will flash three times and then automatically go out.soWhen the car owner changes lanes and overtakes, he can save the trouble of turning off the turn signal.
Unlike conventional turn signal switches, Ferrari 458's turn signal switches are special and are mounted on the steering wheel.
●Precautions for the use of turn signals
We must have encountered the situation of "turning on the lights without turning, turning without turning on the lights" in the process of daily driving.Facing the former, sometimes it may be just a simple misunderstanding.andIn the face of the latter, we can only appeal to him to improve his moral quality, or to overhaul his steering lights in time. In addition, what are the things that need to be paid attention to in the daily driving process?
1. Turn off the double flash and then turn on the steering (no steering priority function)
Many models do not have the steering priority function, so if you want to turn on the steering when the double flash is turned on, you should first turn off the double flash and then turn on the turn signal switch.
2. Can quickly identify whether the turn signal is faulty
The turn signals are divided into contact-type flashers and non-contact-type flashers. When the contact light is faulty, the corresponding turn indicator on the dashboard will not flash, and when the non-contact turn signal fails, the corresponding indicator light will flash faster. Therefore, the car owner should pay more attention to the change of the flashing frequency of the flashing indicator light during the driving process. If the above phenomenon occurs, it indicates that the flashing light is out of order.
Summarize:As a signal light, the main responsibility of the turn signal in the daily driving process is to prompt the surrounding vehicles, indicate the direction you are about to drive, and let other vehicles pay attention to avoid collisions.Therefore, whether it is turning, merging, startingstillWhen parking, as long as you turn the vehicle to leave the original lane, even if you temporarily borrow half the lane to overtake or avoid, you must turn on the turn signal in advance. This is the basic principle of safe driving.
