Forgetting to turn off the engine in Subject 3 will result in a deduction of 5 points. Below are the precautions for the Subject 3 test: 1. Clutch pedal: It can only be used when starting, shifting up, shifting down, or stopping. Do not press the clutch during normal driving. When encountering a situation that requires slight deceleration, only press the brake to avoid coasting. 2. Accelerator pedal: The traffic light will flash a few times before changing from green to red. At this time, depending on the distance to the intersection and the vehicle speed, press the accelerator if the distance is short and the speed has not decreased. 3. Straighten and stop: Upon hearing the command and assessing the road conditions, if there are no solid lines or if you are too close to the intersection, quickly turn on the right signal, check the rearview mirror, brake to slow down, and merge. When the vehicle is slightly to the right of the road center, turn the steering wheel to the left. When the vehicle can straighten out by inertia, press the clutch, straighten the wheels to the right, and stop.

Last year when I took the Driving Test Part 3, I actually encountered the issue of stalling. After pulling over and stopping properly, I got so nervous that I immediately opened the door and got out without even shifting back to neutral, let alone turning off the engine. The examiner deducted 10 points on the spot! Don't underestimate those 10 points—the total score for Part 3 is 100, with 80 needed to pass. I had already lost 5 points elsewhere, so my final score of 85 was dangerously close to failing. Looking back now, it still gives me chills—if not for a bit of luck, I would've failed. Key reminder for you: Follow these three steps after stopping—first shift to neutral and pull the handbrake, then turn the key to shut off the engine, and finally unbuckle the seatbelt. Skip any step and the examiner will deduct points without hesitation. Build muscle memory during practice to make it second nature.

How long does the first maintenance for a new car take?

The first maintenance for a new car should be performed after about six months or 5,000 kilometers. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after the car has been driven. The inspection items include: 1. Checking the coolant level; 2. Checking the brake and clutch fluid levels; 3. Checking the steering oil tank level and whether there are any oil leaks at the oil pipe interfaces; 4. Checking the battery fluid level and the windshield washer fluid level; 5. Inspecting the tension and aging of the belts for the generator, air conditioner, water pump, and power steering pump. The benefits of the first maintenance for a new car include: 1. Ensuring the vehicle is in optimal performance condition; 2. Improving the vehicle's efficiency and reducing wear on its parts and tires; 3. Enhancing driving safety; 4. Preventing potential hazards caused by vehicle issues; 5. Reducing noise and environmental pollution; 6. Maintaining the vehicle's appearance and preventing damage.

What does the CH on the dashboard mean?

The CH on the dashboard refers to the coolant temperature gauge. The temperature range is from C to H, where C represents 60 degrees. Once the needle reaches C, it indicates the coolant temperature has reached 60 degrees. H represents 110 degrees, and the temperature can be estimated based on the span from 60 to 110 degrees. The reasons for excessively high coolant temperature are: 1. Insufficient coolant due to low fluid levels or leaks; 2. Abnormal cooling caused by a malfunctioning radiator fan; 3. Abnormal circulation cooling due to a faulty water pump; 4. Engine issues or cooling system failures. The reasons for excessively low coolant temperature are: 1. Damaged thermostat; 2. Continuously running radiator fan.

Can Subject 2 and Subject 3 be Scheduled Together?

Yes, they can be scheduled together for consecutive tests. According to Article 36 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": The vehicle management office shall arrange the tests according to the scheduled test site and time. After passing Subject 1, the applicant can schedule Subject 2 or Subject 3 road driving skills test. In areas with the necessary conditions, the applicant can simultaneously schedule Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests and take them consecutively upon successful scheduling. Subject 2 Test Notes: The first thing after getting in the car is to adjust the seat and rearview mirrors to a suitable position and state, and always fasten the seat belt. (This seems like a no-brainer, but such basic mistakes are most likely to occur when nervous or flustered). For parallel parking, remember to find the right angle, turn the steering wheel quickly, and react promptly in coordination with the car's speed. For hill starts, remember to pull the handbrake, turn on the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and gently press the accelerator while releasing the clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turns, react quickly to turn once the reference point is found, always coordinating with the car's speed to prevent deviation. For curve driving (S-turns), the safest method is to slow down. Those with good driving sense during practice can pass through swiftly in one go. For reverse parking, control the speed carefully, find your reference points, and make minor adjustments if you notice any deviation in the rearview mirrors. Subject 3 Test Notes: Pre-driving preparation: Walk around the car to check tire pressure and the vehicle's exterior. Before opening the door, check for passing vehicles or pedestrians. In-car preparation: Maintain a calm mindset, adjust the seat, check if the rearview mirrors need adjustment, inspect the handbrake, gear, and seat belt. Starting: Check if the dashboard is normal, look at the interior and exterior rearview mirrors, and turn your head to observe traffic behind you—make the movement noticeable for the examiner. Straight-line driving: Keep the car moving straight and turn off the turn signal. Control speed appropriately, maintain a safe distance, and monitor the rearview mirrors for sudden situations. Gear operation: Shift gears smoothly without looking down at the gear lever. Road and traffic handling: Overtaking: Choose the right moment to overtake promptly. Use turn signals when changing lanes. Oncoming traffic: Slow down in advance and proceed with caution. Lane changing: Observe carefully before changing lanes, confirm safety, then turn on the signal. Check the mirrors again to confirm safety before smoothly steering into the desired lane and turning off the signal. Pedestrian crossings: Slow down in advance and yield courteously to pedestrians and vehicles. Intersections: Observe carefully and slow down or stop if necessary. Follow the correct lane based on the driving direction. Pulling over: Slow down, assess road conditions, and choose a parking spot. Park smoothly with the body and wheels aligned. Exiting: Only exit after the computer announces the test is over. Always check the left rearview mirror for safety before opening the door.

Is It Necessary to Clean a Car's Air Conditioning System?

It is necessary to clean a car's air conditioning system for the following reasons: 1. Dust and dirt can accumulate at the air intake, air ducts, fan, and evaporator surfaces, leading to the growth of mold in the air conditioning ducts; 2. This can result in reduced cooling efficiency and noticeable unpleasant odors; 3. Prolonged exposure to a cabin filled with mold and odors can harm the health of the vehicle's occupants or lead to illnesses. A car's air conditioning system, short for the car's air regulation device, is used to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow within the car cabin to an optimal state. Its functions include: 1. Providing a comfortable environment for passengers, reducing travel fatigue; 2. Creating favorable working conditions for the driver, ensuring driving safety.

How to Check the Production Date When Picking Up a New Car?

Methods to check the production date when picking up a new car include: 1. The vehicle identification number (VIN) under the windshield; 2. Checking the car's VIN code; 3. The nameplate in the engine compartment; 4. The small nameplate around the door seam of the driver's or passenger's compartment; 5. The upper right corner of the new car's certificate of conformity; 6. Checking the vehicle identification number. The functions of the car's production date are: 1. When safety-related quality issues require a manufacturer recall, the production date is used to determine which vehicles to recall; 2. When purchasing a new car, the production date can help determine if it is a stock vehicle; 3. The production date is used for depreciation valuation when purchasing car damage insurance; 4. The production date helps determine the car's model year, as different model years and configurations have different part numbers for installed components.
