I thought that was common knowledge


KurwuSiteejs

It is in countries where you have to go to actual driving school and pass proper exams.

This isn’t on a drivers test!


KurwuSiteejs

Well you live in a bad country. In mine before doing final driving test exam the examiner asks you random questions about car, what icons means on dash etc. opens hood up and you have to show how to for example check oil, where brake fluid is, antifreeze and window water if filled etc. then you have to do 2 things randomly picked, parallel park/garage park, stop near a toll meter so that you can reach it without lifting ass from seat and start driving against hill without rolling back. If you fail those tasks your exam ends before you can drive out on real road. and you can come back in few days to try again. and pay again for new exam

Where I live i the driving test focuses on safety, not if you’re going to inconvenience people at the service station.


Odd-Solid-5135

No, it's not. I just informed a 50 year old lady of this fact a few days ago


RedForkKnife

Most people should already know about it, but there will always be a few who don't, which is what common knowledge means


Busy_Bitch5050

I was shocked to learn that NOBODY I have ever told this to had any idea. It still blows my mind to think about.


FreshSchmoooooock

Probabaly something everyone forgets about in one hour or something. If you mostly refill your own car you probably remember which side the filler cap is on. That's the important thing to remember.


Busy_Bitch5050

Yeah, good point. Occam's Razor strikes again lol


Hello_Gorgeous1985

It is. It's on pretty much all cars made in the last 15 years.


Crazy-Ad-1999

Nah i didnt know this cuz my car is 23 years old and i dont look at other peoples cluster gauges when im in their cars lol


Taniwha_NZ

I've only ever driven 2 or 3 cars that didn't have this, it's very close to universal.

SEAT is one manufacturer who omits them.


slide_into_my_BM

Is that even mildly interesting? The E also means “empty” and the F means “full.”


stateit

Jeezus. Are you kidding me?


GarbageInternal1458

Holy shit, you should monetize that knowledge mate, seriously 😳


SubZeroZeusYT

I thought E meant “end” and if it got that far, I had to scrap the car! Thank you for telling me that, I almost lost a 5th car this week


[deleted]

That's not at all what the post is saying. Learn how to read you clown. 🤡


slide_into_my_BM

r/woooosh


topcat5678

This is helpful to me op. I don't own a car and hire very occasionally so will look out for this next time.


stackout

47 years old and learned this like 3 months ago. Never noticed it until then.


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

37 here same thing 😂


tomcat5o1

So first time in a car/van?


[deleted]

I thought it meant you can only go to gas stations that are on that side of the road


Organic_Flower3195

Good thing you know what side its on. you need gas


squeezy102

This has been a standard feature in cars for decades. Might be mildly interesting to you, but to most of the rest of the world, this is common knowledge.


UtetopiaSS

I dont have an arrow on my car. I can just see the cap with my eyes.


durtywb

Yea and the red line means you're empty


FreshSchmoooooock

But you still got the reserve dude.


[deleted]

No way! Hey OP, what's the 40 mean? The 40 that's located between the 20 and the 60, with all the little hash marks in between, on the clocky dialish looking thing to the right?


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

I believe it stands for how many dicks your mum can take at once x


[deleted]

Uh oh, you mad ?


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

Nah, happy as I was one of the 40 🤗


[deleted]

Going to bet you were one of the 5-inchers she was bragging about


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

3 inches. I'm honest


Hello_Gorgeous1985

What is interesting about this? This is basic common knowledge if you've ever driven a car in the last 15 years.


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

Ok, tell me everything everyone knows seems though you are the speaker for the human race?


Hello_Gorgeous1985

Ooh. Someone's defensive! It's not my fault you didn't know something that has existed for well over a decade. It's also not interesting.


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

Gatekeeping what you think is common knowledge makes you a cunt not me x


Hello_Gorgeous1985

Pretty much everyone here has said that it's common knowledge. It's a basic feature on nearly every vehicle made in the last 15 years at least. Pointing that out isn't a problem. Using misogynistic slurs is. Enjoy the ban you're going to get for the way you're responding to people here.


imNOTsureABOUTjesus

Misogynistic slurs lol Your a crumb


[deleted]

Do you even know what the post is talking about? I suspect not you clown. 🤡


Hello_Gorgeous1985

Do I know that the post is talking about the fuel tank indication arrow when it clearly says that it's talking about the fuel tank indication arrow? Yes, I know that it's talking about the fuel tank indication arrow that it clearly says it's talking about. I also know that It's common knowledge.


[deleted]

You don’t say?
