I know the question has nothing to do with safety, but since it is supposed to be general and independent of the manufacturer, I put it here. For the current occasion, I have again dealt with the topic of fuel saving. In addition to the already known and easily understandable tips, this one also came to me under: “Accelerate with a lot of gas – then the throttle valve is wide open, and the engine can breathe freely and sparingly – and switch up as early as possible. n 2000 revolutions put in the higher gear and kick heavily on the accelerator pedal, saves the most. Who brings the engine with little gas on high speeds, fires the money out to the exhaust.” Now my question: Is it really petrol-saving, undertouring to give full gas, instead of coming with little gas into slightly higher speed ranges? Maybe it’s up to me, but I actually have the feeling (and the consumption indicator confirms that) that I consume more fuel when I use low-speed petrol. At least at the moment you almost step into the void (an average motorized petrol engine is set up) because the idea “less gas would have been enough” and the lay-like assessment “more gas=more fuel consumption”. If, for example, I want to overtake the motorway in the 5th gear and push the accelerator properly, the anzeze often more than if I switch back to the 4th and then can accelerate much better. Is this only because the on-board computer assumes that I will drive the next 100 km like this? Or is this fuel saving wisdom really nonsense? I would also be interested in whether you can actually drive all new engines underboard without any problems, and then should also give full throttle. Does for vehicles without e-gas actually still apply only 3/4 gas because of the fatter Gemis Chs?

Left-wing accident
As in the insurance forum, here is the story of my first accident. So now it has happened. After almost 3 years I have come into the bad situation. I drive a straight road with good insight to all sides (especially forward) and want to turn left into a parking lot. From a distance I see another guide driving suspiciously slowly (not faster 10 km/h) and a driver of stubbornly to the right (so to his driving banner or footpath) looking t. He looks in my opinion at the entrance (to a house) which is about 1 meter before my desired entrance to the parking lot. If he wants to drive in there, we would not hinder each other or disturb each other. Since I have been rolling blinking for some time and he is getting slower, so I think (unfortunately wrongly) that he wants to bend in there and drive himself slowly into my entrance. My rear wheels were just at the height of the edge of the boron, as the In my opinion, he was not able to avoid it at all. In my opinion, he would have to get a debt, because he did not have it all the time to look at the road. That I am ultimately to blame, is not a question for me and I accept that too. Therefore, it would be If you hold back from me in your contributions with blame assignments. I know myself that I should have waited! But you can expect a little more attention from other road users as well. Because at exactly the same place a child was threatened only a few days ago. Schud has a driver who looked dreamily into the surroundings. Apparently there must be something interesting about the high-rise, that something like this at this place often pass Rt. How would you assess the situation or act in my position?

I filed a complaint today.
Today such a *** forced me to complete the braking with intent. I was on the left on a two-lane road in Cologne, while it was stumbling on the right. 200 meters further the road became one-lane. So I had the intention to classify myself at the end of the left lane via zipper, as the legislator also provides. But the ***, which was on the right, probably did not fit and he pulled about 2-3 car lengths in front of me without warning on my track and has me to a full brake was forced. I got 0.5-1 meters behind him honking to stand, whereupon he only gesticulated wildly and then grinned stupidly through the mirror. He then stopped me to the end of the left, 2nd track from driving past him by driving exactly between the two tracks. So I then threaded 2-3 cars further behind him. At the next intersection he was then right in front of me again and started to fry around with his hands again, unfortunately there was no After that he gave the right rubber and ran through the city at well over 80km/h, until he was stopped in a tunnel by a Dutchman, who drove at less than 50km/h. Then he drove very close, gave him the light horn several times and then overtaken him despite overtaking and oncoming traffic, which also had to brake and evade. The police recorded the message from me this evening (mark and vehicle). yp I wrote them down), but said that a coercion would not be detectable, because I could not call any witnesses and because he could also have “accidentally” switched to my track. So they only wrote an OWi ad because of the lane change and the thereby necessary full braking on my part and the push and overtaking in case of overtaking with overtaking with danger of the oncoming traffic. But the latter probably falls away, if none of the other harmed ones reports. clear that he can talk out of it very easily, because I could not clearly identify the driver, but now I feel a little better. Maybe he has already noticed because of such behavior or is still noticeable in the future. Then he can run for a few months.

Flying fists in traffic jam
20. October 2005 HILFSEINSATZ IN SCHNEECHAOS Flying fists in traffic jam When nothing is going on in winter and thousands of motorists are stuck on the motorway, then the rescue services move out with hot drinks and blankets. SPIEGEL ONLINE: Mr. Leitner, what traffic jam was the worst in your career as a Red Cross helper? Leitner: That was a traffic jam on the A8 motorway here in Bavaria, to the border towards Salzburg, the night from 3 to 4 February 2005. Nothing more, on a length of 30 kilometers, the cars got stuck because of the heavy snowfall. It stormed like at the North Pole. … SPIEGEL ONLINE: As a motorist, you never see the start of the traffic jam in which you stand. Tell us: Is there a start? And who is there? Leitner: In winter, these are mostly trucks from southern countries that run through with summer tires and stay stuck on the first snowy slope and cross each other. The cars behind it can still be so well equipped with winter tires and snow chains, that doesn’t help at all. SPIEGEL ONLINE: They are certainly in a good mood when a truck from Italy is standing in front of them… Leitner: The nerves are quickly blank. The ones in the back, they are ignorant, they don’t know what’s going on at all. But the very front, they see the culprit. There are already hand-wrapped arguments. That’s why the highway police are fast. The THW then tries to drag the trucks up the slope. And that often takes a lot of hours. … Addendum from me: While the THW in the front of the truck is unloading the left-over trucks, the crazy truck drivers are driving towards all tracks in the back and are also hanging (even seen on the Bayern TV) (the responsible THW man was about to lynch the truck drivers … Request from me: The police should not let the truck drivers in front of the angry car driver they protect, but prevent them in advance – preventively – from blocking the motorways in the snow – then there is no trouble with car drivers who are on the road in winter with winter tires

Sitting, lying or anything in between??
Moin moin… If I look at the drivers in such a way, then you will notice the different types: On the one hand there is the fraction, which can hardly be seen, because they maintain their usual sunbed position also while driving the car, lie almost horizontally on the down-screwed backrest, so that they can just between the steering wheel wreath with the fingertips still accessible and BMW-3er.Tacho through. If they were to crash under the belt, they would slip through it and stay stuck upside down in the pedal room. And all this to look cool? On the other hand, there are those who screw your seat down as far as possible, but like a fakir on the needle board, touch the steering wheel with one hand, almost with the sparsely overgrown chin. They themselves sit almost on the backrest To read the tank watch of the “dunted” A small parking ramper would be immediately acknowledged with two cut-outs. Straps are not possible here either, the belt would not be that long. My theory is that the types are only sitting in order to get a higher splint feeling (look at the front edge of the bonnet). Of the various possibilities to hold a steering wheel quite apart, which occurs in all car driver classes… (right arm out of the window, left hand at 9 o’clock ) Like k ommts, that correct sitting in the car is above all not perceived by a fraction more uncertain and faster “first” tuner at all? For the above reasons? I would be interested in what you say about it and how you sit.

Please flash right at the descent!
One can see it again and again: A turning foreway, on the front road comes a car and … … bends the front road, without blinking … blinks, although straight ahead is continued (is especially annoying, if in the direction of the blinking is also an inlet / junction. Thought earlier, that this is still a follow-up effect of the “old” regulations, according to which this was so prescribed, so that the only “old hares” do so, who had already made their rags, than the so n In the meantime, however, the regulation has been exactly the opposite for x years (in turn of the VS following PLICHT, while driving straight ahead, it is not only “opis with hat”, but also and especially younger drivers who do so. grmbl…

Winter tire tests – irritating results
I’m still looking for suitable winter tyres for my Audi A3 Sportback. Actually, I wanted the Dunlop Winter Sports 3 D in 225/45 R17. Unfortunately, not available in this format at the moment. Well, so I got out various winter ice tests (Powercar, Good Ride, Auto Bild sportscars) as well as looking for information on the net. What’s irritating now are the strangely different test results. For example, the Pirelli Sottozero (in 225 format) cuts in the Powercar test in No.5 2 006 in third place – second place on wet, so he loses a year later clearly in the dimension 205, and is now suddenly very bad on wet. The “good ride” in issue 10/07 classed the Piirelli again as good at wet. What then? How serious can one take the tests, and are the shown differences (Aqauaplaning e.g. 76.7 k/mh at the best tire to maybe 72.3 k/mh) really so serious? Greeting Swallow
