How many times can I retake the Subject 1 exam if I fail?

There is no limit to the number of times you can take the Subject 1 exam. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," you can take the Subject 1 exam twice on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it for free a second time. If you fail the second attempt as well, the Subject 1 exam for that day will be terminated, and you can only schedule another exam after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer and has a time limit of 45 minutes. To pass the Subject 1 driving test, you need a score of 90 or above. The test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1 exam content: 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 1 exam precautions: During the exam, candidates should dress appropriately—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. Upon entering the exam room, you will be assigned a seat at the identity verification counter. Once seated, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. An unsigned score report is considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not attend the retake or fail it again, the exam for that subject will be terminated, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 only allow five exam attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills exam. Subject 3 consists of two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

When I failed the driving test theory exam (Subject 1) last time, I asked my instructor if I could retake it multiple times. He said there's no national limit on retakes—you can keep retesting until you pass, but after each failure, you must wait 7 days to reschedule and repay the fee (I remember it was over 100 RMB each time). I also checked online data and found that the 2023 updated rules are more flexible—some regions now offer online mock question banks, so practicing more on the app can help you pass. Don’t stress too much; the exam mainly covers traffic signs and safety basics, though the content keeps evolving. I recommend watching real intersection videos before the test—it’s easier to memorize rules that way. If you fail the first time, treat it as practice, stay calm, and prioritize safety above all.

Why is the newly replaced battery still not durable?

There are two reasons why the newly replaced battery is not durable: motor issues or battery issues. More details are as follows: Motor issues: The longer the motor is used, the weaker the magnetic effect inside the motor becomes, leading to demagnetization of the motor. Once the motor is demagnetized, both speed and power will decrease during use. Even with a new battery, it cannot perform as well as the old one. This is a problem related to the aging of electric vehicle components and has nothing to do with the battery itself. It is a normal situation, so there is no need to suspect that the newly installed battery is of poor quality. Battery issues: As loyal users of electric vehicles, many owners will notice that current electric vehicle batteries are not as durable as before. In fact, this is normal. Electric vehicle batteries have undergone "weight reduction and cadmium-free" treatments, which have reduced their durability. In the past, batteries could last up to 10 years, but now they generally last only 2 years, and some may not even last 2 years.

What Causes Abnormal Noise When the Engine Just Starts?

It is caused by a fault in the carbon brushes inside the starter motor. Below is an introduction to the reasons for abnormal noise when the engine just starts: Reasons for abnormal noise: Over time, the engine belt may age and slip, producing a squeaking sound; loose engine mount bolts can cause improper engine support installation. If the engine mount bolts are loose, you can locate and tighten the specific screws yourself. If the belt is loose or aged, causing a buzzing sound, you can replace it with a new one. If there is a fault in the carbon brushes inside the starter motor, you should seek professional help at a 4S shop and avoid disassembling the engine yourself. Maintenance awareness: With high mileage and prolonged use, the engine valves and hydraulic components will experience a certain degree of wear. When the wear becomes excessive, abnormal noises may occur. To resolve this issue, the cylinder head needs to be disassembled to replace these components. A way to mitigate this problem is to change the oil regularly. Avoid overusing engine oil, as excessive use can degrade its lubrication effect, thereby accelerating the wear of valves and hydraulic components. During cold starts, due to the viscosity and poor fluidity of the oil, operational noise may occur in the short term, and slight noise may be heard when moving parts come into contact.

Is the renewal date of the driver's license after adding a driving category based on the old license renewal date?

Renewal date is still calculated based on the date of obtaining the driver's license, i.e., the initial issuance date is the standard for applying for renewal. Below is a detailed introduction to driver's license renewal: 1. The first 12 months after a motor vehicle driver initially applies for a motor vehicle driver's license or adds a permitted driving category is the probationary period. The date of obtaining the license is only used to determine the probationary period; 2. Motor vehicle drivers should apply for renewal at the vehicle management office of the driver's license issuing authority within 90 days before the expiration of the motor vehicle driver's license; 3. If a motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the six-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, they will be issued a motor vehicle driver's license with a ten-year validity period; 4. If a motor vehicle driver has not accumulated 12 penalty points in any scoring cycle during the ten-year validity period of the motor vehicle driver's license, they will be issued a long-term valid motor vehicle driver's license.

Which parts need to be replaced during car maintenance?

Car maintenance requires replacing the oil filter, engine oil, brake pads, and cleaning carbon deposits. Car maintenance, also known as vehicle servicing, refers to the preventive work of regularly inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car. The main components replaced during car maintenance are as follows: 1. Oil filter: The oil filter can filter out some impurities in the engine oil. Over time, the oil filter can become clogged with impurities, thereby failing to effectively lubricate the engine. 2. Engine oil: Prolonged use of engine oil can cause it to become too thick, reducing its ideal lubrication effect. If the oil is not changed for a long time or is insufficient, it may lead to engine cylinder seizure. 3. Brake pads: Brake pads are a crucial component of a car. If the brake pads malfunction, the consequences could be severe. To eliminate such risks early, it is necessary to check whether the brake pads need replacement during car maintenance. Generally, the lifespan of brake pads is around 40,000 to 50,000 kilometers. 4. Cleaning carbon deposits: After driving a certain distance, the car engine will accumulate a significant amount of carbon deposits. It is advisable to clean these during maintenance, as carbon deposits can reduce the vehicle's power, increase fuel consumption, and significantly degrade the driving experience.
