C1 and C2 driver's license tests allow a maximum of five scheduling opportunities for Part 3. If you fail during the test, you will have one immediate retest opportunity. Passing the retest on the spot is equivalent to passing the test. In other words, there are a total of 10 test attempts for small vehicle driver's license exams. Below are the contents of the Part 3 driving test: 1. Road driving skills test content: Vehicle preparation, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. 2. Safe and civilized driving knowledge test content: Safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.

I passed the driving test (Subject 3) on my third attempt. At first, I kept failing due to nervousness. Actually, you can take Subject 3 up to five times, with one official test per scheduled exam day and a free retake if you fail. If all five attempts are unsuccessful, you have to re-register and start from Subject 1, which wastes both time and money. A friend of mine passed on his fourth try—he advised practicing more on driving school’s simulated roads instead of relying solely on family cars, staying calm (unlike my shaky hands), and paying extra attention to details like lights and parking during practice to boost confidence on test day!

I understand that the driving test regulations are very clear: the third subject (Road Test) allows a maximum of five exam attempts, with each attempt including one main test on the day and possibly one retest. If all five attempts fail, the candidate must reapply and start over from the first subject (Theory Test). The limit on the number of attempts is to encourage everyone to take training seriously and avoid casual attempts. I recommend practicing more with the driving school's training car to familiarize yourself with road conditions before the exam, which can help reduce nervousness and mistakes during the test. In terms of costs, each exam attempt requires a fee, so being well-prepared can save a lot of money and time. Remember not to delay too long, as exceeding the time limit will require retaking the exam!

What is the HOLD light?

HOLD light is the gear lock indicator light. When the HOLD light is on, it indicates that the gear is locked in a specific position. When driving uphill or on icy/snowy roads that require low-gear operation, you can activate HOLD to lock the transmission in second gear. The button for this switch is located in the middle of the gear lever. Pressing it again will deactivate the function. Normally, it's not recommended to use this feature as it may harm the transmission. Automatic gear lock is a forced downshift key, used when gears get stuck or during towing. When HOLD is activated, the parking brake system will automatically engage each time the vehicle comes to a complete stop after braking. You'll feel a release of pressure on the brake pedal, at which point you can release the pedal without worrying about the vehicle rolling. Working principle of gear lock indicator light: The transmission control unit uses this sensor to detect the gear selected by the driver and performs corresponding control actions. Relationship between neutral switch and gear position switch: In older vehicles, the P (Park) and N (Neutral) switches were connected in series with the starter motor switch, meaning the engine could only be started in these two positions. In newer vehicles, the control unit identifies the neutral signal first, then decides whether to engage the starter motor.

Here are the specific reasons for engine shaking during warm idle: 1. Fuel system issues: Typically caused by fuel line blockages leading to poor fuel supply, manifested as engine shaking, unstable idle, or stalling while driving. Fuel pump failure can also cause engine shaking. To diagnose fuel pump problems, disconnect the fuel line and check fuel flow rate and volume. 2. Electrical system issues: Check whether spark plugs are worn, if gaps are uniform, or if gaps have changed. Additionally, malfunctioning distributors can cause engine shaking. 3. Mechanical reasons: Inspect engine operation for abnormal sounds or valve noise. Check belt condition for looseness.

What Causes Difficulty in Removing the Car Key?

Car key difficulty in removal can be attributed to the following reasons: 1. P gear not properly engaged: When exiting the vehicle, the gear was not shifted to P or the P gear did not fully engage, possibly obstructed by an object, thus failing to trigger the electronic sensor. 2. Steering wheel locked: The steering wheel was not returned to its proper position when parking, causing an abnormal lock. The solution is to insert the key, attempt to turn the steering wheel left and right while twisting the key, which will release the steering wheel lock. 3. Obstruction in the key slot: The solution involves removing the obstruction, starting the car, shifting the gear again to ensure it is fully engaged, after which the key can be removed.
