For the exam, you only need to bring your ID card. The admission ticket and other documents are handled by the driving school, which will distribute them during the exam. Electronic IDs cannot be used for the exam. If you don't have an ID card, you can apply for a temporary ID card, which has the same validity as a regular ID card. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," you can take the Subject 1 test twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free. If you fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 test will be terminated, and you can only reschedule the exam after ten days. The Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. The Subject 1 test is computer-based and lasts for 45 minutes. Subject 1 test content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; 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: Candidates should pay attention to their attire and are not allowed to wear slippers. Electronic devices and bags are not allowed 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. In the exam room, the identity verification area will assign seats. After finding your seat, start the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it 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 result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the exam will be terminated, and you must reschedule. 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 driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test results 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 driving knowledge. The safe 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 Subject 4. The exam duration is 45 minutes.

When I just passed my driver's license test, I remember that for the theory test (Subject 1), I didn't need to bring any files at all. The driving school instructor said just bringing an ID card was enough, as the test center had an automated system to verify information. The files are records of driving lessons, which are handed over to the coach during practical training for subsequent subjects. Subject 1 only tests theoretical knowledge, with all questions on the computer, so candidates just need to go in empty-handed to answer. A friend of mine was worried about bringing them and even made a special trip to the driving school to ask, only to find it was unnecessary. Before the test, it's better to focus on practicing questions rather than worrying about what to bring. The key is to steadily pass the score threshold—studying traffic regulations is far more useful than fussing over files.

How to Solve the Problem of Weak Airflow in Car Air Conditioning?

There are several reasons for reduced airflow in car air conditioning: 1. Check the air conditioning filter. A dirty filter with poor permeability can obstruct air circulation, leading to weak airflow. In such cases, it's necessary to replace the filter promptly. 2. Clean the air conditioning evaporator: The evaporator surface accumulates moisture during operation, which over time can trap dust and severely block airflow. 3. Turn the switch to the highest setting: Some car owners believe that setting the air conditioning to the highest level increases fuel consumption. However, setting the airflow to maximum has minimal impact on fuel consumption. If the airflow still feels weak, adjust the switch to the highest setting. 4. Activate the internal circulation mode: Enabling internal circulation allows air to circulate within the car without drawing in external heat, creating a cooler sensation and reducing external resistance, which relatively increases airflow.

What are the requirements for purchasing duty-free imported vehicles in Hainan?

Only vehicles for operational purposes can apply for duty-free status. This not only requires the purchasing enterprise to be engaged in transportation or tourism industries, but also mandates that the vehicles must be used specifically for these two sectors. Below are detailed explanations: 1. Hainan's zero-tariff policy only applies to 'operational vehicles': It is explicitly stated that the policy primarily targets 'operational vehicles,' meaning it is unrelated to personal interests. Moreover, the policy does not completely lift restrictions and is likely to impose strict limitations on vehicle usage, quantity, technical specifications, etc. 2. A 10% vehicle purchase tax is levied in Hainan: According to the 'Vehicle Purchase Tax Law,' the current vehicle purchase tax rate is 10% of the vehicle's selling price (excluding tax), with a value-added tax rate of 13%. 3. New energy vehicles are exempt from purchase tax: From January 1, 2021, to December 31, 2022, new energy vehicles purchased are exempt from the vehicle purchase tax. New energy vehicles exempt from purchase tax include pure electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid (including range-extended) vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles.

What to Do If the Rear Taillight Cover of the Car Is Broken?

There are several solutions for a cracked rear taillight cover: 1. Small cracks: Depending on the severity of the crack, if it is still functional, continue using it for a while. 2. Glue repair: Simple repairs can be made using glue and plastic. 3. Check the wiring: Inspect the wiring of the taillight; if it is affected by short circuits during rain, replace the cover. Related knowledge about car lights: 1. No separate replacement: The taillight cover cannot be replaced separately because auto parts stores do not sell individual components, so the entire assembly must be replaced. 2. Warranty period: The warranty for car lights is often only 3-6 months. Since lights are considered wear-and-tear parts, the maintenance manual usually states in small print that while the entire car has a three-year warranty, the headlights often only have a warranty of 3 to 6 months or 5,000 kilometers.

Is it necessary to apply rear window film?

Applying rear window film is necessary for the following reasons: 1. Cooling: It provides heat insulation and blocks UV rays from the sun, which can also help reduce air conditioning consumption to some extent. 2. Privacy: It ensures a certain level of privacy inside the car. Typically, cars with window film make it difficult to see inside from the outside while allowing clear visibility from the inside out. Post-application precautions include: 1. Sun-drying the vehicle after application: Whether it's the front or rear window, after applying the film, it's advisable to expose the car to sunlight for a period to help the film dry faster, ensuring it doesn't affect subsequent use. Generally, about a week of sun exposure is sufficient. 2. Avoid rolling windows up and down: After applying the film, try not to roll the windows up or down for at least three days. This is because there may still be moisture between the film and the glass, and rolling the windows during this period can cause the edges of the film to peel off. 3. Avoid attaching items to the windows: For one month after application, refrain from attaching strongly adhesive labels to the window film to prevent partial peeling.

Is Anti-Lag System Harmful to the Car?

Anti-lag system does cause certain harm to the car. Essentially, anti-lag is an engine tuning method derived from drag racing. Since it deliberately ignites the air-fuel mixture outside the combustion chamber, anti-lag is essentially equivalent to what is commonly referred to as misfiring. The effects of anti-lag on the car: 1. Heat absorption: The anti-lag system not only reduces turbo lag but also has another advantage. Gasoline itself is highly volatile and can absorb part of the engine's heat. When highly volatile gasoline enters the engine and exhaust system, it can effectively lower the engine temperature. 2. Increased durability: Turbocharged race cars need to burn a very rich air-fuel mixture. Although this leads to high fuel consumption, it can reduce engine temperatures, thereby increasing engine durability from this perspective. 3. Disadvantages: However, the drawbacks are also unavoidable. The powerful force and high temperature generated by the explosion of the rich air-fuel mixture in the exhaust system will increase the load on parts such as the exhaust manifold, turbocharger exhaust-side blades, and valve surroundings, shortening the service life of the turbocharger, exhaust system, and engine exhaust valves.

Is It Harmful to Run the Car Air Conditioner for Two Hours While Idling?

It can cause some damage to the car, but the impact is not too severe. The car won't break down, but there may be some engine wear, potentially requiring earlier oil changes and maintenance. Here are the relevant details: 1. Car Air Conditioning: The car air conditioning system is designed to regulate and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the vehicle to optimal levels, providing a comfortable environment for passengers and reducing travel fatigue. It also creates better working conditions for the driver, playing a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. 2. Precautions: This consumes a significant amount of fuel. It is not recommended to run the air conditioning while idling for extended periods. Prolonged use of the air conditioning in recirculation mode can lead to deteriorating air quality inside the car, with increasing levels of carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides, which can pose health risks and even endanger lives.
