The duration of vehicle painting depends on the size of the area to be painted: 1. Small areas: Small area painting can be completed in half a day, while a full car paint job takes two days. 2. Baking or natural drying: Generally, in summer when temperatures are high, the paint can dry in two days; in winter, the drying time depends on the temperature and can take up to four to seven days. If baking is used, it only takes two hours. Precautions for car painting are as follows: 1. If the car has just been painted, avoid contact with water and dust on the freshly painted areas. 2. It's best not to drive the car out in rainy weather, as the fresh paint is still delicate and can be marked by rain, some of which cannot be removed by polishing. It's advisable to park in a garage at night. 3. Avoid contact of the freshly painted areas with chemicals and oil stains.

When starting a manual transmission car, should you engage the gear first or release the handbrake first?

When starting a manual transmission car, you should engage the gear first, then release the handbrake. As a beginner, the reason for engaging the gear before releasing the handbrake during startup is primarily for safety considerations. When starting, the driver may not know whether the ground is level. If it's on a slope, releasing the handbrake first would leave the car in a neutral coasting state, causing the vehicle to roll in the direction of the slope without any braking, which could easily lead to a safety accident. However, if you engage the gear first and then release the handbrake, the car in first gear will receive a force from the engine idle speed. This force can prevent the vehicle from rolling backward in neutral, effectively avoiding potential dangers. Therefore, the correct starting procedure for a manual transmission should be: press the clutch, press the brake, engage the gear, release the handbrake, release the brake, lift the clutch, and start moving. The sequence for stopping is the opposite of starting. When parking, you should first apply the handbrake and then shift to neutral. This ensures the vehicle won't move to the greatest extent possible. This is because many people tend to release the clutch and brake after shifting to neutral. If the gear isn't properly engaged in neutral or the parking spot is on a slope, the vehicle may move.

Can Subject 4 be Taken in Advance?

Subject 4 cannot be taken in advance. In principle, you must take the exam at the same location where you registered. The Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test (Subject 4) can only be taken after passing the Subject 3 Road Driving Skills Test. Candidates who fail the exam can directly apply for a retake, and their previously passed road driving skills test scores remain valid. There is no limit on the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 and Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test (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, and no additional fees are required for the retake. Currently, there is no scheduling limit for the Safety and Civilized Driving Theory Test. However, the driving skills test permit is valid for three years. If an applicant fails to complete the test within the validity period, their previously passed subject scores will become invalid. Notes for the Subject 4 Exam: Sit upright to ensure your face can be captured by the camera; you do not have to answer questions in order, but each question allows only one selection—once an answer is clicked and confirmed, it cannot be changed; if you answer 5 questions incorrectly before completing the exam, the system will automatically terminate the session and notify you of the failure, requiring you to reschedule a retake; after the new driving test regulations, the exam format has changed—multiple-choice questions increased from 5 to 10, so be careful not to miss or over-select options.
