C1 and E licenses cannot be taken together. You must wait at least one year after obtaining a C1 driver's license before applying for an E license. Age requirements for C1 driver's license: The minimum age for a C1 driver's license is 18 years old, with no upper age limit. However, applicants over 70 years old must pass tests for memory, judgment, and reaction abilities. Vehicle types permitted with C1 license: The C1 driver's license allows driving small and mini passenger vehicles, light and mini cargo vehicles, as well as light, small, and mini special-purpose vehicles. Small passenger vehicles must have a seating capacity of 9 or fewer people. Vehicles not permitted with C1 license: The C1 license does not permit driving large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, or trams. Additionally, the C1 license does not allow driving vehicles with more than 9 seats or trucks with a total length exceeding 6 meters.

Can a Temporary ID Be Used for Subject 2 Driving Test?

A temporary ID can be used for the Subject 2 driving test. However, if you need to use a temporary ID due to the absence of a regular ID, you must inform the driving instructor in advance and follow the driving school's arrangements for the test. According to Article 19, Paragraph 1 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," "first-time applicants for a motor vehicle driving license shall fill out an application form and submit their identity proof." Therefore, a temporary ID can be used to take the Subject 2 test. One important note: the validity period of a temporary resident ID is three months. You can take the Subject 2 test within this period, but you will not be allowed to enter the test site if the ID has expired. Make sure to take the test within the validity period of the ID. If the temporary ID expires due to special circumstances, you should apply for a formal ID or a new temporary ID as soon as possible. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment and refers to the field driving skills test. For small vehicles (C1/C2), the test includes five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start and stop, right-angle turn, and curve driving (commonly known as the S-curve). Some regions may have a sixth item, such as highway card collection. According to Article 25 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), as of June 1, 2021, the hill start and stop item is no longer required for C2 and C5 license tests. For large vehicles (AB licenses), Subject 2 includes 16 items: reverse parking, continuous obstacle passage, curve driving, highway simulation test, width-limited gate, bumpy road, single-plank bridge, narrow road U-turn, hill start and stop, parallel parking, highway emergency handling, mountain road simulation, right-angle turn, rain and fog weather simulation, highway tire blowout simulation, and tunnel simulation driving.

What does highway ETC refer to?

Highway ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) translates to electronic toll collection, which is a non-stop toll collection system. On highways, there will be one or more ETC lanes. The ETC charging method: through the microwave-specific short-range communication between the on-board RFID tag installed on the vehicle's windshield and the microwave antenna on the ETC lane of the toll station, using software networking technology to conduct background settlement processing with the bank, thereby achieving the purpose of vehicles passing through the toll station without stopping to pay the toll. Banks install this type of ETC express card with the principle of 'pass first, pay later'. ETC application conditions are as follows: Provide the original and photocopy of the vehicle owner's valid ID card and vehicle license. The photocopy of the driving license needs to include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp; Postal credit card application form, this credit card is used to bind the ETC card. After obtaining the credit card, swipe it twice and bring the POS slip to the designated postal outlet to receive and install the ETC on-board device for free, with no charges during the process; Must be between 18 and 60 years old; Own a vehicle under personal name. Below are precautions for installing ETC: Do not block the view, it's best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large inclination angle of the windshield, resulting in a smaller driver's field of vision. If ETC installation does not consider this, it will increase the driver's blind spots. Install it on the right side behind the rearview mirror to avoid blocking the view. Do not affect charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power, but generally does not need to be charged or have its battery replaced because there is a solar panel on its back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and do not place it where the solar panel can be easily blocked. Once installed, do not remove it casually: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal guide rod, connected to a switch below. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal guide rod in. If it is removed casually, the anti-removal guide rod will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable, requiring a visit to the ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Precautions for using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device failure of the vehicle in front, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic sensing and paying for the vehicle in front; The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. If the speed is too fast, the vehicle device information cannot be read, leading to charging failure; When using a debit card to bind ETC, insufficient balance will also cause charging failure.

Do I Need to Press the Clutch When Starting the Car in Subject Three?

No need to press the brake, just press the clutch to start the car and slowly release the clutch. When preparing to get in the car, pay attention to the correct procedure. First, report to the examiner, then request a vehicle inspection. Be mindful of your movements during this process, as there may be cameras monitoring. If your actions are not up to standard, you may be directly judged as failing, so ensure your movements are proper. After the inspection is complete, get into the car. Precautions for Subject Three: Do not panic when starting; stay steady: First, press the clutch, shift to first gear, turn on the left turn signal, honk the horn, check the rearview mirror, and look back to confirm safety. Then, release the handbrake and slowly release the clutch to start. If you are on an uphill slope, make sure to press the brake before releasing the handbrake, reach the semi-clutch point, then release the brake and start. Accurately judge traffic light timing: When approaching an intersection, if you cannot accurately calculate the remaining time of a red light, the best approach is to wait for the next green light. Use the brake correctly: Even in emergencies, stay calm and avoid confusing the accelerator and brake pedals. While driving, always control your speed. In emergencies, you can press both the clutch and brake simultaneously. Additionally, when passing bus stops or schools, generally apply the brake lightly when about 30 meters away from the target. When approaching a turn, always brake early to reduce speed. Shift gears correctly, ensuring speed and gear match: When performing gear shifts, always maintain a match between speed and gear. Generally, 0-15 km/h corresponds to 1st gear, 15-25 km/h to 2nd gear, 25-35 km/h to 3rd gear, 35-40 km/h to 4th gear, and 40-55 km/h to 5th gear. During gear shifts, it is best to shift sequentially and avoid skipping gears.

Why Shouldn't You Coast in Neutral Gear?

Here are the reasons why coasting in neutral gear is not recommended for vehicles: When coasting in neutral, the engine stops running, causing the air compressor to cease operation. Since vehicles require frequent braking, the compressed air in the air reservoir continuously depletes, potentially leading to brake failure. It can easily damage the transmission. Most transmissions use rolling bearings extensively. While coasting in neutral, the transmission's secondary shaft rotates, but the constant-mesh gears remain stationary. As a result, these gears cannot agitate the gear oil inside the transmission, causing bearings (especially those positioned higher and relying on splash lubrication) to receive inadequate lubrication. This leads to premature wear of bearings and gears. Braking distance and time increase. Some drivers, aiming to save fuel, depress the clutch and let the engine stall while coasting. When they suddenly release the clutch pedal after descending a slope to restart the engine, power is transmitted in reverse: drive wheels → axle shafts → differential → final drive → propeller shaft → transmission secondary shaft → synchronizer → clutch. The sudden engagement of the clutch with the stationary flywheel subjects the clutch to immense shock loads, potentially damaging the clutch friction plates. According to China's "Road Traffic Safety Law," coasting in neutral downhill or after stalling is illegal. Descending slopes at high speeds without gear resistance increases brake wear and may cause skidding. This regulation was specifically implemented to reduce accidents. Modern electronic fuel injection systems primarily rely on signals from the throttle position sensor and crankshaft speed sensor, with the engine control unit (ECU) determining fuel injection volume. In most vehicles, the ECU commands the fuel pump to stop supplying fuel when coasting in gear. However, when coasting in neutral, the ECU interprets signals from these sensors as indicating an idle state and continues injecting fuel into the cylinders, resulting in wasted fuel. Important Notes: Coasting in neutral doesn't necessarily save fuel because modern vehicles use electronic fuel injection, where the ECU controls fuel injection volume based on the throttle position sensor. When the accelerator is pressed hard, the throttle opens wider, prompting the ECU to increase fuel injection. When the accelerator is released, the throttle returns to the idle position, and the ECU stops fuel injection. If the gear is shifted to neutral, the engine continues injecting fuel to prevent stalling, resulting in idle fuel consumption.

What Causes Heavy Steering Wheel in Crown?

Crown steering wheel becomes heavy due to the following reasons: Lack of lubrication in the steering gear: When the car's steering gear lacks lubrication, symptoms such as steering jamming and heavy steering wheel may occur. In this case, lubricating oil should be added, and the power steering fluid may need to be replaced if necessary. Low tire pressure: When the car's tire pressure is too low, the contact area between the tire and the ground increases, leading to greater resistance during driving, which makes the steering wheel feel heavier. In this situation, the tires should be inflated promptly. Battery depletion: After prolonged battery depletion, the steering wheel loses the assistance from the motor. In this case, the battery needs to be recharged.
