C1 driver's license probation period demerit points will not extend the probation period. However, if you accumulate 12 demerit points during the probation period, your driver's license will be revoked. For Class A or Class B licenses, the permitted driving level will be downgraded. Below are precautions during the driver's license probation period: 1. Highway driving requires accompaniment: During the probation period, you cannot drive on highways alone. If a probationary driver operates a motor vehicle on a highway, they must be accompanied by a driver who holds a corresponding or higher-class driver's license for more than three years. The accompanying driver should sit in the front passenger seat to provide guidance. Failure to have an accompanying driver or if the accompanying driver does not meet the requirements will result in a fine. 2. Display probationary sign: You must display a probationary sign when driving during the probation period. If you borrow or rent a car during probation, you must also affix the probationary sign as required; otherwise, you cannot drive. 3. Accumulating 12 demerit points: Accumulating 12 points requires retaking the tests. Although demerit points can be incurred during the probation period, extra caution is advised to avoid accumulating 12 points. If you accumulate 12 points during probation, your driver's license will be revoked, meaning you must re-register and retake all tests from the beginning, including Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3.

What does Level 5 autonomous driving mean?

Level 5 autonomous driving refers to full self-driving capability, where no driver intervention is required. The vehicle may not even have traditional driving controls like a steering wheel, accelerator, or brake pedals. Instead, it relies entirely on the vehicle's onboard computer for perception and decision-making to operate the car. This level of automation enables all-weather, all-terrain autonomous driving and can adapt to changes in environmental conditions and geographical locations. The driver can focus on resting or other tasks. In the SAE Levels of Driving Automation published by SAE International (Society of Automotive Engineers), besides Level 5 autonomous driving, there are five other levels. Level 0 represents manual driving, where, according to SAE's definition, the driver is fully responsible for all driving operations, including steering, braking, and acceleration. The vehicle only executes commands, so this level is not considered autonomous driving. Level 1 is driver assistance, where the driver still needs to operate the vehicle, but safety systems like Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) provide assistance. The driver must keep hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road. Features such as adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and automatic braking in luxury brands like Volvo and Mercedes-Benz fall under Level 1 autonomous driving. Level 2 is partial automation, where the vehicle can simultaneously control acceleration, deceleration, and steering. This means adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping systems can work together. Most automakers have already achieved Level 2 autonomous driving technology. Level 3 is conditional automation, where the vehicle can handle acceleration, deceleration, and steering in specific environments without driver input or monitoring of the surroundings. However, the driver must remain attentive and ready to take over if the system encounters a situation it cannot handle. The Audi A8 is the world's first production car capable of Level 3 autonomous driving on public roads. Level 4 is high automation, where the vehicle can operate without any driver intervention but may have limitations, such as speed restrictions or operating in predefined areas. It typically relies on real-time road data to support functions like automated valet parking, platooning, and obstacle avoidance in real-world scenarios. Autonomous driving demand analysis: The essence of autonomous driving technology is to replace human labor in specific scenarios with artificial intelligence, improving efficiency and reducing labor costs. Its underlying logic is similar to industrial robotics—"machines replacing humans"—and will profoundly impact industries like automotive transportation, logistics, and commercial services. Thus, labor cost savings directly reflect the economic value of autonomous driving technology. All vehicles that do not require human operation fall under the autonomous driving category. Based on scenario openness, driving speed (divided by 20 km/h), and cargo type, autonomous driving applications can be categorized into open vs. closed, high-speed vs. low-speed, and passenger vs. freight dimensions. High-speed, open-scenario autonomous driving is the most technically challenging and has the greatest potential but remains far from commercialization and profitability. In contrast, autonomous driving in restricted environments has lower technical barriers and faster commercialization. Fully mature autonomous driving models are rare, with Tesla being one example. Additionally, the market categorizes driving modes into six levels: Level 0 (manual driving), Level 1 (driver assistance), Level 2 (partial automation), Level 3 (conditional automation), Level 4 (high automation), and Level 5 (full automation). Currently, the highest commercially available level is Level 2, and for safety reasons, human intervention is still required.

Is on-site attendance required for Subject 1?

Learning to drive, Subject 1 is a theoretical knowledge test, and according to regulations, it is mandatory to attend training classes organized by the traffic police department. The following is relevant information about the Subject 1 theoretical knowledge test: 1. Professionals from the traffic police department conduct the classes, which helps in solidifying the knowledge. This way, when encountering situations while driving in the future, you will know how to handle them. You can also ask questions if you don't understand, which is beneficial for better passing the exam; 2. Attending training classes at driving schools also provides some assistance in passing the exam; 3. Self-study at home is also a good method. If you lack confidence, you can do more practice questions at home; 4. In summary, if regulations require attending training classes at the traffic police department, then it's best to study seriously. If there are no such local regulations, attending training classes at driving schools is preferable. Although self-study at home can also help pass the exam, the knowledge may not be deeply ingrained, and you might feel at a loss when encountering situations while driving in the future.

Which is Cheaper, 92 or 95 Gasoline?

Gasoline 92 is cheaper. Generally, the smaller the label, the cheaper it is. The price difference between 95 and 92 gasoline is usually around 8%. The differences between 95 and 92 gasoline are as follows: Different Octane Numbers: 95 gasoline consists of 95% isooctane and 3% n-heptane; 92 gasoline consists of 92% octane number and 8% n-heptane. Different Anti-knock Properties: Gasolines with different labels have different octane numbers. The higher the label, the higher the octane number, and the better the anti-knock property of the gasoline. Here are other aspects of gasoline: These two types of gasoline cannot be mixed, as it will lead to a large amount of combustion residues remaining. Over time, this will cause the engine to accumulate a lot of carbon deposits, affecting power, increasing fuel consumption, and disrupting the normal operation of the engine. Gasoline appears as a transparent, flammable liquid, obtained from petroleum refining through different gasoline components such as straight-run gasoline, catalytic cracking gasoline, and catalytic reforming gasoline. After refining, it is blended with high-octane components and mainly used as fuel for spark-ignition internal combustion engines in automobiles.

What are the hazards of installing an OBD lock car window lifter?

The hazards of installing an OBD lock car window lifter are as follows: The disadvantages of an OBD window lifter are quite obvious. When the first window of the car has already reached the closed state within 5 seconds, the controller cannot determine the disconnected state and will continue to supply power to the window motor, causing the motor to operate under overload conditions for a long time. Below is relevant information: 1. Window lifter: A window lifter refers to a device that automatically closes the windows for the owner when they forget to do so after getting out of the car, also known as an automatic window lifter, to prevent forgetful owners from having their cars stolen due to leaving windows open. 2. Activation method: The window lifter, also known as a window closer, car automatic window closer, car window lifter, or car automatic window lifter, only takes effect after the car key is turned off, and the window closing function only works once.

Should the Engine Be Turned Off When Adding Windshield Washer Fluid?

Adding windshield washer fluid does not require turning off the engine, especially during extremely cold seasons like winter. If the engine is turned off and the hood is opened in cold conditions, the windshield washer fluid pipe may freeze and break. Here are some precautions when adding windshield washer fluid: 1. Dilution of windshield washer fluid: Generally, windshield washer fluid does not need to be diluted, but concentrated types require dilution, as do solid windshield washer fluids. 2. Avoid using tap water: Tap water contains many impurities, which can accumulate in rubber pipes over time, affecting normal spraying. Long-term use may increase friction between the windshield and wipers, causing scratches on the glass. Plain water can only remove dust superficially and lacks the ability to thoroughly clean dirt and insect residue on the windshield.

What is the free travel of the brake pedal?

The free travel of the brake pedal is set to ensure that there is no brake drag and to completely release the brake. The following is a related introduction about the free travel of the brake pedal: 1. Function: To prevent the brake pads and brake discs from becoming too tight and overheating, which could lead to brake failure. Without free travel, braking would be very uncomfortable and could even cause the wheels to lock up on their own. 2. Brake pedal free travel: To measure, place a straightedge between the brake pedal and the floor of the cab. Press the brake pedal down by hand and note the reading on the straightedge when free resistance is encountered. Then release the pedal and observe the reading again. The difference between the two readings is the free travel of the pedal. 3. Adjustment: The free travel of the brake pedal should be 1 to 8mm. If the free travel does not meet this specification, check whether the bolt of the pedal arm shaft and the installation of the master cylinder are loose, or whether the components are excessively worn. If any issues are found, tighten or replace them as necessary.
