Misunderstandings in the use of car lights[汽车维修知识]

carAs the special language of the car, the light directly reflects the driving direction of the car, the motivation and intention of the driver. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of driving, it is necessary to ensure that the lights are complete, effective and used correctly. 1.Turn on the high beams wantonly
Many drivers like to drive with high beams for a long time at night, thinking that driving is safer. In fact, this has certain drawbacks. Because the high beam is too dazzling, it will cause a "blind spot" in the driver's vision for a long time, which can easily lead to a traffic accident. Vehicles that like to turn on high beams are mostly large trucks, minibuses, and taxis. Some small cars (including some off-road vehicles) also like to turn on high beams.
2.Use shoddy car lights
When some drivers change their car lights, they are greedy to buy cheaply and use fake and inferior car lights, which poses a hidden danger to safe driving. A qualified lamp must pass 14 test standards such as light distribution, moisture resistance, shock resistance, durability, and sealing, and counterfeit and inferior products often cannot withstand any of these tests.for exampleFog lightsNot eye-catching enough, headlights are dazzling and dazzling, small lights are often changed and often broken, such shoddy lamps will seriously threaten the safety of driving.
3. Use "Posting must be bright"
Some drivers use a so-called "sticking must be bright" car lights to wire, hoping to improve the lighting effect of the car lights. It is generally composed of 13 blue self-adhesive plastic stripes with varying widths. The width of the stripes is between 1.50～12 mm. The stripes change from narrow to wide from top to bottom. The interval between the stripes is 8 mm. The area It is 400 mm × 180 mm. Through the test, it can be proved that the "sticking must be bright" multiples increase the falseness of the car light. The "sticking must be bright" not only can't make the car lights brighter, but it will help.
4.Driving at night without lights
Many drivers do not turn off the lights (that is, do not turn off the high beam) when driving at night, which is easy to cause accidents. Because if one party takes the initiative to turn on the lights, the other party does not, often irritating the party who takes the initiative to turn on the lights. Even the two formed a strong high beam contrast, resulting in unclear vision and unclear judgment. Especially in complex sections such as narrow roads, narrow bridges, and dangerous roads near the mountains, the consequences are even more disastrous.
5.It is safer to turn on the front and rear fog lights when driving at night
Many drivers turn on the front and rear fog lights when driving at night, thinking that this is safer. In fact, it will be more dangerous to do so, especially the white beam of the front fog lamp is very strong, affecting the vehicle driving on the opposite side will also affect your own safety. Fog lights can only be used in bad weather, day or night.
6.The bigger the bulb power, the better
Some drivers want to improveHeadlampThe brightness of the lamp is replaced by a vacuum lamp with higher power.As a result, when driving at night, the brightness has not increased, but decreased, and after turning on the headlightsAccumulatorThe discharge is serious.This is because the power of the replaced headlamp is too large, which makesDynamoCaused by severe overload.
7.Use the alarm indicator as an insurance light
Modern cars are installed with variousmonitorOr alarm devices (such as oil pressure under-pressure alarm light, brake fluid level alarm light or non-charging indicator light, etc.). These indicator lights can assist the driver in correctly judging the state of the vehicle during driving. However, some drivers relax their inspection of the vehicle and use the warning indicator on the dashboard as a safety light, thinking that as long as the warning light is not on (or does not alarm), it means that the vehicle is safe and secure. In fact, not calling the police does not mean insurance. Because the alarm mission undertaken by the car alarm lamp is only to alarm a certain part or some aspects of the fault, it cannot alarm other parts and parts of the system. For example, the alarm for insufficient brake fluid level only reports that the brake fluid level is insufficient, but cannot give fault alarms on the degree of wear of the brake shoes and whether the brake system components are working.
In addition, the alarm indicator itself may also cause malfunctions, such as a light bulb burned out. At this time, although the alarm indicator does not give an alarm, the operation of the controlled machine or component has been abnormal or has failed. Therefore, the warning lights cannot guarantee safe driving, and it is necessary to check the controlled parts and parts.
