According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," Subject 4 consists of 50 questions, each worth 2 points, totaling 100 points. Questions 1-10 are true/false; questions 11-40 are single-choice; and questions 41-50 are multiple-choice. The exam includes question types such as image analysis, animated case studies, and textual descriptions. The scope of Subject 4 covers driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions; identification of common traffic signs, markings, and hand signals; accident rescue and hazardous material handling knowledge; comprehensive judgment of violations and case analysis; emergency avoidance knowledge; safe driving knowledge; and driving ethics and civilized driving knowledge. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," there is no limit to the number of attempts for Subject 1 and Subject 4 exams. If the first attempt on the same day is unsuccessful, a retake can be conducted immediately. If it still fails, a new appointment is required, and no retake fee is charged. However, it should be noted that the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant fails to complete the exam within the validity period, the passed subject scores will be invalidated. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory exam or driver theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts: the road test and the addition of a safety and civilization knowledge exam, commonly referred to as "Subject 4." Subject 4 is the colloquial term for the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge exam and is not a separate subject. Since this exam is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly referred to as the Subject 4 exam. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety and civilized driving knowledge exam is conducted after Subject 3. Subject 4 Exam Notes: Exam Duration: The exam lasts 30 minutes, and incorrect answers totaling 12 points (6 questions) will terminate the exam. Number of Questions: Depending on the type of license being tested, 50 questions are proportionally selected from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank. Small vehicle licenses draw from 800 questions, while large vehicle licenses draw from 1,023 questions, with each question worth 2 points. Question Types: The questions include single-choice (including true/false) and multiple-choice. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The exam also includes animated questions, image-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and textual description questions. Retake Notes: If Subject 4 is not passed, only Subject 4 needs to be retaken. The driving school will schedule the retake, with no limit on the number of retakes. No retake fee is required for Subject 4. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3, with Subject 3 divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam; and Subject 3 refers to the road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge exam.

The Subject 4 test consists of 50 questions in total, all of which are multiple-choice, with each question worth 2 points, making the full score 100. The passing score is 90. This test mainly focuses on safe and civilized driving knowledge, with fewer questions than the 100 in Subject 1, but it places more emphasis on practical road safety and handling unexpected situations. For example, the questions cover practical knowledge such as traffic rules, accident prevention, and civilized etiquette. I believe that during preparation, it's important to practice with mock tests to familiarize yourself with the question bank structure, which helps reduce nervousness during the actual exam. The vehicle management office usually provides official study materials before the test to help candidates efficiently grasp the core content and ensure passing on the first attempt.

Can Lead-Acid Electric Vehicles Be Replaced with Lithium Batteries?

Electric vehicles with lead-acid batteries can be replaced with lithium batteries. Here are the details: 1. If replacing lead-acid batteries with lithium batteries, it is necessary to ensure that the voltage remains the same as the original lead-acid batteries. Additionally, the charger must be replaced with a dedicated lithium battery charger. However, there is another issue: improper installation or quality problems with the lithium battery may damage the controller. 2. When replacing lead-acid batteries with lithium batteries, the size of the battery compartment must also be considered. Generally, lead-acid battery compartments are relatively large, while lithium batteries are smaller. This factor must be carefully considered during replacement. If the gap after installation is too large, it can easily cause the smaller batteries to shake, reducing their lifespan. 3. Compared to lead-acid batteries, lithium batteries are less stable. If exposed to water or mishandled, there is a high risk of explosion. Another point to note is that lithium batteries have a multi-cell structure, meaning if one cell has an issue, it can affect the overall quality.

What to Do When 12 Points Are Deducted from Your Driver's License?

The solutions for having all 12 points deducted from your driver's license: 1. Large passenger and cargo vehicles: If a driver of a large passenger or cargo vehicle has all 12 points deducted, their highest-level driving qualification will be revoked. The driver must go to the local vehicle management office within 30 days to downgrade their driver's license. If the driver fails to complete the downgrade and license replacement within the specified time, the traffic management department will revoke their driving qualification for that vehicle type. 2. Ordinary small passenger vehicles: Owners of ordinary small passenger vehicles must report to the issuing authority of their motor vehicle driver's license or the traffic management department within 15 days to participate in a seven-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. After passing the exam, they will regain their driver's license. 3. Note: If your driver's license is confiscated, you must report to the traffic management department for study within 15 days from the date of confiscation; otherwise, your license will be directly revoked.

In which years were China III vehicles produced?

China III vehicles generally refer to cars produced between 2007 and 2011, with the nationwide implementation date starting from July 1, 2007. According to Announcement No. 5 of 2006 by the National Environmental Protection Administration, 'Announcement on the Release of New Motor Vehicle Models and Engine Types Meeting the National Phase II and Phase III Emission Limits for Motor Vehicles,' the China III standard mainly applies to light gasoline and diesel vehicles under 3.5 tons, equivalent to the Euro III standard. The so-called China III standard refers to China's third-stage vehicle emission standard. The national third-stage emission standard is equivalent to the Euro III emission standard, meaning the pollutant content in exhaust emissions is similar to Euro III levels. The difference is that new vehicles must be equipped with an OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) system. The characteristics of the OBD system include an increased number of detection points and detection systems, with oxygen sensors installed at both the inlet and outlet of the three-way catalytic converter. Compliance is fully ensured through real-time monitoring of vehicle emissions, guaranteeing stricter enforcement of the Euro III emission standard. Compared to China II vehicles, China III vehicles are more fuel-efficient. Models around 5 tons save approximately 1 liter per 100 kilometers, while 10-ton models save about 2 liters. However, this applies primarily to long-distance and stable driving conditions. For short-distance operations, the impact on fuel consumption is minimal. China's emission standards are categorized as follows: China I, China II, China III, China IV, China V, and China VI. As of December 31, 2018, the national standard for light gasoline vehicles was China V. The China VI emission standard is implemented in two phases: Phase 1: Starting from July 1, 2020, all vehicles sold and registered must comply with the China VI A standard. Phase 2: Starting from July 1, 2023, all vehicles sold and registered must comply with the China VI B standard. Some cities may advance the implementation of the China VI emission standard for light vehicles to January 1, 2019.

What is the function of gasoline additives?

Fuel additives are useful. The chemical composition of fuel additives contains cleaning agents that can effectively clean or inhibit carbon deposits in the engine, addressing issues such as insufficient power and fault codes caused by fuel quality. The specific functions of fuel additives include: removing carbon deposits and cleaning the fuel system; enhancing power; saving fuel; preventing corrosion, rust, lubrication, and noise reduction; cleaning carbon deposits and gum deposits in the engine intake and fuel injectors; and using corrosion inhibitors, anti-knock agents, and combustion improvers to prevent corrosion, resist knocking, and improve combustion efficiency. In the era of multi-point fuel injection, the main component of fuel additives was mostly PIBA (polyisobutylene amine), a polymer with a polyether main chain and an amine end group, which could remove some gum deposits. However, in the era of direct injection, due to the high-temperature and high-pressure environment (combustion chamber) of direct injection vehicles, volatility is poor, leading to rapid formation of deposits. Therefore, adding traditional fuel additives to direct injection vehicles not only fails to clean combustion chamber carbon deposits but also significantly increases carbon buildup. Nowadays, most fuel additives contain PEA (polyether amine), which can continue to clean under high-temperature conditions, making it suitable for direct injection engines and more effective in removing carbon deposits. Additionally, most current fuel additives include gasoline cleaning components that effectively clean gasoline, prevent oxidation, and improve energy efficiency. The national standard for fuel additives is GB19592-2004. Only those that meet this standard are considered legitimate fuel additives, so consumers should pay attention when purchasing.

Who manufactures the Ford 8AT transmission?

Ford independently manufactures the 8AT transmission, which boasts advantages such as high torque capacity, excellent fuel economy, and minimal shift shock. Differences: The 8AT is an improved version based on the 9AT transmission jointly developed by Ford and General Motors. Although the 8AT has one less gear set compared to GM's 9AT, the impact is not very significant for transversely mounted engines. On the contrary, it offers higher stability. Shift Logic: The 8AT's shift logic is clearer, avoiding shift shock caused by frequent gear changes. The 8AT transmission excels in upshift speed, with a close-ratio gear setting that delivers more responsive upshift performance.
