An expired ID card cannot be used for the exam. You can first apply for a temporary ID card and use it to take the exam. The Subject 4 exam consists of 50 questions, mainly in the form of case studies, images, and animations, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civics knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Because this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called the Subject 4 exam. Officially, there is no such term as Subject 4. If you fail Subject 4, you do not need to retake the previously passed subjects (Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3). You can schedule a retake on your own without paying additional fees. There are no scheduling restrictions, but the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete the exam within this period, the passed subject scores will become invalid.

Why Are There Water Droplets at the Car Air Conditioning Vents?

Here are the reasons for water droplets at the car air conditioning vents: Air Conditioning Too Cold: Moisture in the air condenses on the outside of the vents, creating a phenomenon resembling white smoke. Moisture can also condense on the plastic casing of the evaporator or the outer surface of the plastic ducts delivering cold air, leading to dripping. Models with poor insulation on the evaporator's plastic casing or the plastic ducts for cold air delivery are more prone to this issue. High Humidity: Excessive humidity inside the car can also easily cause the above problem. Blocked Drainage Pipe: If the drainage pipe of the evaporator's plastic casing is blocked, water may overflow when the level gets too high, causing dripping inside the car. Damage: Cracks in the evaporator's plastic casing or loose drainage pipes can also result in water dripping inside the car. Leakage: A cracked small heater core inside the dashboard can cause engine coolant to leak.

Can Plug-in Hybrids Use New Energy Vehicle Indicators?

Plug-in hybrids can use new energy vehicle indicators, as plug-in hybrid vehicles are classified as new energy vehicles. Plug-in hybrid vehicles use new energy license plates. The powertrain of a plug-in hybrid vehicle consists of a combination of an engine and an electric motor. The electric motor and battery pack in such vehicles directly contribute to driving the car, hence they are considered new energy vehicles. Below is an introduction to related content: 1. Plug-in hybrid vehicles primarily use electricity as the main driving method, with fuel as a backup. Compared to hybrid vehicles, plug-in hybrids are truly new energy vehicles. 2. Generally, the battery in a plug-in hybrid vehicle can provide a range of up to 100km.

Can You Drive a Right-Hand Drive Car in China?

In mainland China, you cannot drive a right-hand drive car. Below are the relevant details: Relevant Regulations: Since the announcement by the Ministry of Public Security, right-hand drive cars or cars converted from right-hand drive to left-hand drive are not eligible for registration. Approval for converting right-hand drive to left-hand drive is strictly prohibited. Existing right-hand drive cars are subject to clearance. For right-hand drive cars that have already been licensed and reached the scrapping standard, owners are urged to complete the scrapping procedures as soon as possible, and no extensions for scrapping will be approved. For licensed right-hand drive cars that have not yet reached the scrapping standard, they are allowed to continue driving on the road until they meet the scrapping standard, after which the aforementioned regulations apply. Reason for Left-Hand Drive: Because China's traffic rules require driving on the right side. If the steering wheel is on the right, the driver cannot see the traffic and road conditions behind. Therefore, it must be on the left. In some countries where driving is on the left side, the steering wheel is on the right.
