There is no limit to the number of attempts for the Subject One driving test. The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulates that you can take the Subject One test twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free a second time. If you still fail the second attempt, the Subject One test will be terminated, and you can only schedule another test after ten days. Subject One, also known as the Subject One theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test format is computer-based, with a time limit of 45 minutes. For the Subject One driving test, a score of 90 is required to pass. There are 100 questions, consisting of single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject One test content includes: driving 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 One test precautions: During the test, candidates should pay attention to their attire—no sandals 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, locate your seat, and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, 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 One test. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the test will be terminated, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject Two and Subject Three have only five attempts each. Subject Two and Subject Three tests must be scheduled ten days later. If you fail the Subject Three safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject One refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. Subject Two refers to the field driving skills test. Subject Three is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge test. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject Three, so it is commonly referred to as Subject Four. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), there is no such thing as Subject Four.

There is no limit to the number of attempts for Subject 1 exam. You can retake it unlimited times until you pass. However, each scheduled exam session offers two chances: the first is the official exam, and if you fail, you can immediately take a free retest. If you still fail the retest, you need to reschedule and pay the fee to take the exam again. I recommend practicing more mock questions before each exam, especially reviewing the wrong answers repeatedly. The 45-minute exam duration is sufficient, so don’t panic. The system will immediately notify you when you answer incorrectly, and maintaining composure at this point is crucial. You must complete all subjects within three years of registration, or your results will expire. Therefore, it’s best to prepare continuously while the material is fresh.

I have a lot of experience with the driver's license test. For the theoretical exam (Subject 1), you can keep retaking it until you pass. Just pay and schedule each attempt, though you get two answering chances per exam. If you fail the first try, don't leave immediately—the examiner will let you sit for a makeup test right away. I've seen people pass after seven or eight attempts, mainly because traffic rule questions can be confusing. I recommend using the "Driving Test Guide" app to practice—it updates its question bank quickly with new regulations. Focus especially on fine-related questions and sign recognition. Remember to bring your ID card for the exam, and stop answering once you hit 90 points—don't change already-confirmed answers.

There is no limit to the number of retakes for Subject 1, but each scheduled payment only allows two exam attempts. If you fail the first time, don't leave the testing area—start the second attempt immediately on the spot. Note that the retake uses the same set of questions, so avoid repeating mistakes from the first attempt. Testing centers usually schedule multiple sessions daily, and you can rebook as early as the next day. Focus especially on speed limits and penalty point standards for violations, as these sections have the highest error rates. Reviewing the exam process posted at the testing center before the exam can help reduce nervousness.

There is no limit on the number of attempts for Subject 1. If you fail, you can simply retake it by rescheduling and paying the exam fee again. However, each test session at the exam center gives you two answering opportunities, meaning you pay once but get two tries. Based on experience, those who consistently score above 95 in mock tests usually pass on their first attempt. If your scores hover around 85, be cautious—don’t rush to book the exam. Instead, print out your frequently missed questions and focus on mastering them. Pay special attention to the new dedicated EV signage questions, as the question bank evolves annually. Lastly, remember to silence your phone before entering the exam hall.

Should ETC be activated or installed first?

ETC should be installed first and then activated. The installation process of the ETC device on the windshield is as follows: Upon receiving the device, first check if the ETC card and the electronic tag (OBU) are damaged. Press the anti-tamper button on the back of the OBU, and the red light will briefly illuminate. The OLED screen will display "Tag Invalid" or "Please Insert Card," indicating the device is functioning normally. Clean the front windshield to ensure the surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Then, peel off the adhesive backing of the OBU and attach it to the installation position. Press firmly for 2-3 minutes to remove any air bubbles. Insert the ETC card with the front side facing the driver and the back side facing the windshield, ensuring the chip is inserted into the OBU device. ETC activation method: Insert and remove the ETC card twice in succession until the electronic tag screen displays "Bluetooth On." If "Tag Invalid" appears when inserting and removing the card twice without the electronic tag attached, this is normal and does not affect activation. Alternatively, you can directly press the button on the top of the electronic tag to enable Bluetooth. Turn on your phone's Bluetooth and open the corresponding mobile app (usually a download QR code is provided on the electronic tag). Navigate to the device activation interface. Click "Connect Device" and wait patiently for the "Connection Successful" prompt. Once connected, upload a photo of the vehicle's front to complete the activation.

Can You Make a U-Turn on a Single Yellow Line on the Road?

A single yellow line, if solid, strictly prohibits crossing for actions like overtaking, turning, or making a U-turn. Under normal driving conditions, you should not cross the line unless under special circumstances. If the single yellow line is dashed, you may overtake or make a U-turn as long as it is safe to do so. Circumstances under which a U-turn is permitted include: Presence of a U-turn signal or sign: If there is a traffic signal allowing U-turns at an intersection, you may make a U-turn when the U-turn signal is green. If there is a U-turn sign or a lane marking indicating U-turns, you may proceed with a U-turn after ensuring the safety of yourself and others. No U-turn sign but left turns are allowed (no prohibition signs for U-turns): At intersections where left turns are permitted and there are no signs or markings prohibiting U-turns, vehicles may make a U-turn. It is important to note that the maneuver should not disrupt the normal flow of other vehicles and must follow the left-turn signal. If making a U-turn at an intersection with a left-turn waiting area, you may first enter the waiting area when the straight signal is green and proceed with the U-turn once the left-turn signal turns green. U-turns are allowed at dashed lines: Whether the dashed line is white or yellow, U-turns are permitted. For double yellow lines with one solid and one dashed, check if your side is the dashed line. If it is, you may make a U-turn if safe; if it is solid, U-turns are not allowed.

Car Light Signals Reference Table?

Car light signals reference table refers to a comprehensive guide of car light signals. The following is an introduction to the car light signals reference table: 1. When the light turns green but the car in front doesn't move or when you want to overtake: flash the headlights once. This is commonly used when the car ahead is driving slowly on the road and the driver behind intends to overtake, or when at a traffic light that has turned green but the car ahead still hasn't moved, flashing the headlights once serves as a reminder to the driver ahead. 2. When encountering strong glare from headlights at night: flash twice as a reminder. This is commonly used when meeting another car at night, and the other car is still using high beams, causing glare. The affected driver needs to flash the headlights twice to remind the other driver to switch to low beams. 3. When there is a problem with a neighboring car: flash the headlights three times. This is generally used when the trunk or door of the neighboring car is open, or when the tire pressure is insufficient, to remind the neighboring car to pull over and check for potential safety hazards. 4. When a car needs to merge: a single flash indicates agreement, while continuous flashing indicates refusal. This is commonly used when a car in the same direction is changing lanes or when a car from another lane is merging onto the main road. 5. When the following car is too close: intermittently illuminate the brake lights. This is commonly used during driving when the car behind is following too closely, increasing the risk of a traffic accident, so the brake lights are used to remind the following car to maintain a safe distance.

How often should the throttle be cleaned on a Sagitar?

The throttle cleaning interval for the Sagitar, as specified in the maintenance manual, is recommended every 15,000 to 30,000 kilometers. The exact timing depends on factors such as the vehicle's operating environment, fuel quality, and air filter replacement schedule. The reasons for cleaning the throttle are as follows: 1. As the vehicle accumulates mileage, carbon deposits naturally build up, and the throttle is particularly prone to carbon accumulation. 2. Increased carbon deposits can thicken the throttle plate. Given the throttle's precise control, even minor carbon buildup can disrupt the air intake volume, causing it to deviate from the engine computer's requirements. This leads to poor combustion, reduced engine power, and increased fuel consumption. 3. In more severe cases, carbon buildup can cause throttle sticking, resulting in symptoms like sluggish acceleration, engine vibration, higher fuel consumption, or even stalling. Therefore, regular throttle cleaning is essential.

How much tire pressure should a car have in summer?

According to the season, the general tire pressure in summer is 2.3kg for the front tires and 2.5kg for the rear tires; in winter, it's 2.5kg for the front tires and 2.7kg for the rear tires. The exact values may vary slightly depending on the vehicle model and style. It is necessary to refer to the standard tire pressure chart on the car. The standard tire pressure chart can usually be found in the following places: the vehicle user manual, the label near the driver's door (near the B-pillar), the drawer next to the driver's seat, or the fuel tank cap door. Excessive tire pressure: If the tire pressure is too high and significantly exceeds the standard pressure, the tire's friction and adhesion will decrease, affecting braking performance, causing steering wheel vibration and deviation, and reducing driving comfort. At the same time, it accelerates the wear of the central tread pattern, shortens the tire's lifespan, increases body vibration, and indirectly affects the lifespan of other components. Insufficient tire pressure: If the tire pressure is too low and significantly below the standard pressure, it increases the friction coefficient between the tire and the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption. It also makes the steering wheel heavy and prone to deviation, among other factors that are detrimental to driving safety. Insufficient tire pressure increases the movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling.

Is Engine Restoration Protection Fluid Useful?

Engine restoration protection fluid has certain benefits. It can effectively reduce wear and corrosion of engine components, inhibit the formation of deposits such as gum and sludge, and form an extremely thin yet highly pressure-resistant and wear-resistant protective layer on metal surfaces. This prevents oil oxidation, thickening, and acidification, thereby protecting engine parts and extending engine life. It also effectively reduces noise caused by friction or degraded oil lubrication performance. Engine restoration protection fluid, also known as engine protectant, is used when a gasoline engine is in the break-in period or when hydraulic lifters produce abnormal noise. Simply mix it with engine oil according to the specified ratio and add it to the engine crankcase.
