The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" clearly stipulates that the Subject 1 test can be taken twice on the same day. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 test for that day is terminated, and the applicant must wait ten days before scheduling another test. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for Subject 1 is 90 points. The test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 test content includes: driver's 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; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 test precautions: Candidates should pay attention to their attire; no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination 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 examination room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, find your seat, and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available the same day; if you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, queue to collect your score report and sign it; unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject test allows one retake if the initial attempt fails. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the test is terminated, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests have only five attempts each. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test is failed, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge tests. The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include the term "Subject 4."

Can an A1 driver's license be used until age 65?

No, it can only be used until age 60. Here are the relevant details: Introduction to Age-Based Downgrading: According to driver's license regulations, drivers aged 60 or above are not permitted to operate large buses, tow trucks, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, trolleybuses, or trams. This means that holders of A-class, B-class, N, or P licenses aged 60 or above must downgrade to C1 or C2 licenses. Even if the downgrade procedure is not completed, they cannot continue driving the aforementioned non-compliant vehicle types. Introduction to Application Requirements: C-class licenses can only be obtained at age 18, while B-class licenses require at least 3 years of C1 driving experience, and A-class licenses require at least 5 years of B-class license possession. This means an A-class license can be used for a maximum of 34 years, and a B-class license for up to 39 years.

Is it considered hit-and-run if you leave immediately after hitting a guardrail?

Leaving after hitting a guardrail is considered hit-and-run. The penalties for hit-and-run and the handling methods for hitting a guardrail are as follows: Penalties for hit-and-run: For hit-and-run, the penalties range from deducting 12 points, a fine, and up to 15 days of detention for minor cases, to revocation of the motor vehicle driver's license and a lifetime ban from re-obtaining it, or even imprisonment for severe cases. Handling methods for hitting a guardrail: After hitting an isolation guardrail, it is necessary to report to the police promptly and compensate for the damage. As for the specific penalties for hit-and-run after hitting an isolation guardrail, the severity of the situation is key. If it is only a minor scrape on the guardrail and the perpetrator has a good attitude, then the issue is not significant. However, if the guardrail is hit or damaged, affecting the safety of other drivers, the consequences can be severe.

Does a Broken Taillight Cover Need to Be Replaced?

A broken taillight cover cannot be repaired and needs to be replaced with a new one. The impacts of a broken taillight cover and the reasons for water ingress in the taillight are as follows: Impacts of a Broken Taillight Cover: If a broken taillight cover is not replaced, water will enter the taillight during rain, leading to more severe malfunctions. Additionally, some car lights are integrated units where the cover cannot be detached. In such cases, a damaged cover necessitates replacing the entire taillight, which can be costly. Therefore, it is important to protect your car's light covers while driving to minimize the risk of damage. Reasons for Water Ingress in Taillights: During regular use, if water enters the taillight, it is mostly due to aging seals around the cover. In this situation, replacing the cover or the entire taillight is also required.

Can Good Engine Oil Improve Power?

Good engine oil can enhance engine power. Below is relevant information about engine oil: Functions of Engine Oil: Engine oil is a lubricant for engines, with a density of approximately 0.91×10kg/m3. It serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption. It is often referred to as the 'blood' of a car. Engine oil consists of two main components: base oil and additives. The base oil is the primary component of the lubricant, determining its fundamental properties, while additives compensate for and improve any deficiencies in the base oil, imparting new characteristics. Additives are an essential part of the lubricant. Classification of Engine Oil: Engine oils on the market can be broadly categorized into mineral oil and synthetic oil based on their base oil (vegetable oil is not considered due to its scarcity). Synthetic oils are further divided into full synthetic and semi-synthetic.

How many RPM does the Civic CVT reach when flooring the accelerator pedal momentarily?

The Civic CVT reaches 3000 RPM when flooring the accelerator pedal momentarily. Reasons why drivers are not recommended to use flooring the accelerator pedal: Using flooring the accelerator pedal not only compromises driving safety but also damages the car's engine and transmission, increasing fuel consumption. If wheel spin occurs, the operation should be stopped immediately. At this point, the vehicle speed is generally not high, and to prevent further loss of control, do not blindly apply the brakes. Simply lifting the accelerator pedal completely and refraining from accelerating can generally restore control. Then, decide whether to apply the brakes based on the situation. Long-term use of flooring the accelerator pedal can have the following effects on the car: First, when the car is still in a cold state, the engine oil cannot effectively lubricate all components. Although the oil can reach various parts instantly when the engine starts, these are residual old oil, which is not only minimal in quantity but also at a low temperature and high viscosity, making it unsuitable for immediate driving. If flooring the accelerator pedal is applied at this time, the engine operates under load without sufficient protection, potentially causing irreparable damage to components. Second, shifting gears only when the RPM reaches the redline during driving can harm the transmission. The redline on the tachometer is set by the manufacturer to indicate the transmission's maximum tolerance. Prolonged redline shifting can easily accelerate gear wear. Third, the manufacturing standards of different car manufacturers vary, and some cars are of poor quality and unsuitable for long-term aggressive driving. Long-term aggressive driving tests the vehicle's fuel supply system, lubrication system, cooling system, etc., requiring a comprehensive assessment of whether the vehicle can withstand such driving. At least the above conditions must be considered to make a basic judgment on whether the vehicle will be affected by long-term aggressive driving. To prolong the car's lifespan, minimize the use of flooring the accelerator pedal. Fourth, domestic traffic and road conditions do not allow for unrestricted flooring of the accelerator pedal. When the vehicle speed increases rapidly, the next step often becomes hard braking. Like hard acceleration, excessive braking can also reduce the lifespan of brake pads and the motor.

What is the full score for Subject 2, and what is the passing score?

Subject 2 has a full score of 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. The following conditions must be met to pass the exam: ① For applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required; ② For other types of driving licenses, a score of 80 is required. The test items for small vehicles C1 and C2 include reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope (canceled for C2), turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (commonly known as the S-curve) as five mandatory items (some regions have a sixth item: high-speed card collection). The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving on a curve, turning at a right angle, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling. If you fail the Subject 2 exam on the first attempt, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the exam process is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of rescheduling for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five times. If the fifth rescheduled exam is still failed, the results of other previously passed subjects will be invalidated.
