The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulates that on the day of the Subject 1 make-up exam, candidates can take the exam twice. If they fail the first time, they can take a second make-up exam for free. If they still fail the second time, the Subject 1 exam is terminated, and they can only reschedule the exam after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for Subject 1 is 90 points. The exam consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the exam and end the test. Subject 1 exam content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Special knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: During the Subject 1 exam, candidates should pay attention to their attire. No slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the exam room. Upon entering the exam room, the identity verification station will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aimed at you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first time, there is a make-up exam on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the exam invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject exam can be taken once, and if you fail, you can take a make-up exam once. If you do not take the make-up exam or still fail the make-up exam, the exam is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five exam attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test scores remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge exam. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), there is no such thing as Subject 4.

I just got my driver's license last year, but I failed the first subject test. My instructor said I could arrange a free retake immediately. I was nervous again, misread the questions, and still didn't pass. Later, I signed up for a third attempt and had to pay the exam fee before finally passing. There doesn't seem to be a limit on the number of retakes, but each attempt must be at least ten days apart. I recommend practicing more with the questions on the 'Driving Test Treasure' app during revision—don’t just memorize answers, but understand the rules. A solid foundation in Subject 1 ensures safer actual driving, avoiding accidents caused by sudden braking. Friends say this test seems simple but actually focuses on details. Treat each failure as practice and gradually master the techniques. Now that I drive to work daily, I better understand the importance of rules. Taking the test multiple times is actually an opportunity to gain experience.

Back when I worked at the driving school, I often explained the rules for retaking the Theory Test (Subject 1). After failing the exam, most places allow one free retake opportunity; if you still don't pass, you can register for unlimited retakes, but you'll need to pay the registration fee each time. The key is not to take it lightly—Subject 1 tests theoretical applications, such as traffic signal recognition, which directly relates to safe driving. If students fail, they should practice more with mock tests to familiarize themselves with question variations. The traffic authorities encourage retakes until you meet the standard, ensuring everyone understands the rules to prevent accidents on the road. I've seen people pass only on their fourth attempt, but they ultimately succeeded in getting their license and driving safely.

The make-up exam rules for Subject 1 are flexible. If you fail the first time, you can retake it, with more than two opportunities. The policy aims to strengthen knowledge mastery, and the interval between retakes is usually a few days. I recommend making good use of question bank resources, such as online platform practice questions, which cover various scenarios. Don't underestimate the exam—it teaches you how to handle emergencies and avoid accidents. After the exam, reflect on your mistakes to improve your chances of passing next time.

Driving license tests vary slightly across regions. For the supplementary test of Subject One, there is generally one free retake after a failure. If unsuccessful, you can continue to retake the test by paying fees, theoretically with no limit. The rules are designed to ensure road safety, testing the understanding of traffic signs and regulations. I have noticed that the difficulty of the questions has increased in recent years, requiring candidates to study more diligently. Make full use of driving school or app tools and practice until you are familiar. This is related to your reaction speed when driving, so don't skimp on that time.

Where is the fuel pressure regulator 2 located on the Audi A6 2.0T?

The fuel pressure regulator 2 on the Audi A6 2.0T is located inside the fuel filter, next to the right rear wheel. Working principle: The fuel pressure is regulated by the coordinated operation of a spring and the vacuum in the chamber. The function of the pressure regulator is to maintain a constant pressure in the fuel line. If the fuel pressure is too low, the injector may spray fuel too weakly or not at all. If the fuel pressure is too high, it may damage the fuel line or the injector. Inside the pressure regulator, there is a diaphragm that controls the opening and closing of the pressure valve. Normal fuel pressure for Audi A6L 2.0: The low-pressure side fuel pressure is approximately 4 bar at idle.

How to Conduct Annual Inspection During the Six-Year Exemption Period for New Cars?

For new cars within the first six years of purchase, there are mainly two methods for annual inspection. Below is a detailed introduction to the new car annual inspection: 1. On-site Processing: The car owner should bring the required documents directly to the local vehicle management office to apply for the annual inspection label, which is free of charge. The necessary documents include the original and duplicate of the vehicle license; the ID card of the vehicle owner; the compulsory traffic insurance policy of the motor vehicle; and the tax payment or tax exemption certificate for the vehicle and vessel tax. If the process is entrusted to someone else, the original ID card of the agent and a written power of attorney signed by the vehicle owner are also required. 2. Online Processing: Using the mobile app "Traffic Management 12123" for the annual review of exempted vehicles is more convenient and faster. Due to the digitization of the annual inspection label, upon successful annual review, the system will issue an electronic certificate of inspection qualification, which has the same effect as the paper annual inspection label.
