According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Subject 4 consists of a total of 50 questions, each worth 2 points, totaling 100 points. Questions 1-10 are true/false questions; questions 11-40 are single-choice questions; and questions 41-50 are multiple-choice questions. The exam includes various 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, recognition of common traffic signs, markings and gestures, accident rescue and hazardous material handling, comprehensive judgment of violations and case analysis, emergency avoidance knowledge, safe driving practices, and driving ethics and civilized driving knowledge. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," there is no limit to the number of attempts for Subjects 1 and 4. If the first attempt on the same day is unsuccessful, a retake can be conducted immediately. If the retake is also unsuccessful, a new appointment must be made, and no additional fees are required for the retake. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the driver's skill test permit is three years. If the applicant fails to complete the test within this period, the results of any previously passed subjects will be voided. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, Subject 3 was divided into two parts: the road test and the addition of a safety and civilization knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4." Subject 4 is the colloquial term for the safety and civilization driving knowledge test under Subject 3 and is not a separate subject. Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly referred to as the Subject 4 test. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety and civilization driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3. Subject 4 Exam Notes: Exam Duration: The exam lasts 30 minutes. If 12 points (6 questions) are lost during the test, the exam will be terminated immediately. Number of Questions: Depending on the type of license being tested, 50 questions are randomly selected from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank. For small vehicle licenses, questions are drawn from a pool of 800, while for large vehicle licenses, they are drawn from a pool of 1,023. Each question is worth 2 points. Question Types: The exam includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The exam also features 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, and there is no limit to the number of retakes. No additional fees are required for Subject 4 retakes. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3, with Subject 3 further divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; and Subject 3 refers to the road driving skills and safety and civilization driving knowledge test.

When I was getting my driver's license, I specifically asked my instructor. There are about 1,700 questions in the Subject 4 question bank, with slight variations possible in different regions. During the computer test, the system randomly selects 50 questions, all of which are true/false and multiple-choice. Our instructor said you need to practice continuously for a week, especially those questions about safe driving and emergency handling, which appear very frequently. It's recommended to use a driving test APP for chapter-by-chapter practice, and first master the 200+ questions in the accident handling section. Recently, defensive driving questions have been added, so special attention should be paid to methods for dealing with sudden situations.

Why Can't the Car Windshield Washer Spray in Winter?

If the windshield washer fluid doesn't spray, it may be due to low fluid level. Here are the reasons and solutions for windshield washer fluid not spraying in winter: 1. If the washer fluid is full but still doesn't spray, the nozzle might be clogged with dust. Try using a fine needle to unclog the nozzle. Considering it's winter, the reservoir or pipes might also be frozen. After warming up the car sufficiently, try parking it in the sun. If it starts spraying, it means you need to switch to a higher-grade antifreeze washer fluid. If there's no sound from the motor when trying to spray, and the wipers don't work either, check if the fuse is blown or the motor is damaged. If none of these are the issue and the washer fluid still won't spray, consider the possibility of the pipes being clogged with debris. 2. If the washer nozzle is clogged, you can use a needle or thin wire to unclog it. Locate the nozzle position and gently pry it up with a screwdriver—the nozzle is a snap-fit structure and doesn't require much force. Once the nozzle is lifted, you'll see a small hose connected underneath. Remove the nozzle from the hose directly, but be careful not to let the hose fall into the car, as you would then need to remove the entire panel to retrieve it.

What are the techniques for shifting gears in a manual transmission car?

Techniques for shifting gears in a manual transmission car are as follows: 1. Seating posture technique: Novices often sit too far forward. After becoming familiar with the vehicle, adjust the seat to the correct position. Place your right foot lightly on the brake pedal, with an obtuse angle of about 120 degrees or more between the thigh and calf (for comfort). When pressing firmly, the thigh and calf should not form a completely straight line; just ensure sufficient and comfortable extension. 2. Starting technique: Unlike automatic transmission cars, when starting a manual transmission car, remember to press the clutch all the way down with your left foot, engage first gear, place your right foot lightly above the accelerator, slowly release the clutch while simultaneously releasing the handbrake and gently pressing the accelerator. After slowly lifting the clutch with your left foot a little, immediately press the accelerator lightly to achieve a smooth start. 3. Hill start technique: The so-called "half-clutch" state may not be suitable for all car models. Therefore, before releasing the clutch on an uphill slope, you need to give some throttle, which is the so-called "double acceleration": after the first acceleration, lift the clutch, pay attention to the changes in the engine sound, stopping the left foot when there is a change is key, and simultaneously accelerating ensures a smooth start. Slowly releasing the handbrake and stabilizing the left foot are crucial for a smooth start.

Can a China 4 Emission Standard Vehicle Be Transferred?

Can a China 4 Emission Standard Vehicle Be Transferred? Generally, there are no restrictions on the emission standards for used cars being transferred locally. As long as the vehicle has not reached the mandatory scrapping standard, it can be transferred normally. However, if the used car is being transferred from another region, it must comply with the local emission standard policies to be eligible for transfer. Below is relevant information: 1. Cities where China 4 vehicles can be transferred: Generally, cities implementing the China 5 standard do not allow the transfer of such vehicles, nor can they process the transfer procedures. Except for Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Shandong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hebei, and Liaoning, China 4 vehicles in other regions can generally be processed for transfer. Of course, it is best to consult the local vehicle management office before the transfer to avoid unnecessary legwork. It should be noted that China 5 vehicles cannot be registered in some provinces or cities. 2. Personal presence is not always required for transfer: The transfer of a vehicle does not necessarily require the owner to be present. If the owner cannot personally handle the transfer procedures for some reason, they can authorize someone else to handle the vehicle's file transfer and relocation procedures. The owner needs to write a power of attorney, which should include a photocopy of their ID card and signature, and provide the original ID card, vehicle registration certificate, and driving license to the authorized person for processing at the vehicle management office.
