What is the ritual of offering sacrifices to the car god?

When the car arrived at his door, the grand car presentation ceremony began. People will bring fruits, fish and other sacrifices and put them on the altar in front of the gate. Later, some superstitious people will also prepare incense sticks and paper money. When the time is right, they will light incense sticks and burn paper money.

Generally, these things are done by the elderly at home. They will say something while burning paper money, which probably means that they hope that the car god can bless their families to travel safely and drive well.

Some people died at home, while others drove to the side of the road. For some drivers who drive big trucks, it is also necessary to sacrifice their cars after they bring new cars. Drivers will drive their cars, take their families and fill a table with sacrifices at the crossroads. They will burn paper money, light incense and set off firecrackers here. The scene was very lively.
