There are a total of 6 instances where turn signals are required in Subject 2: When starting the vehicle, turn on the left turn signal; When starting on the slope, turn on the left turn signal; During parallel parking, turn on the right turn signal when the vehicle passes the parking spot and stops 30 cm from the curb before preparing to reverse; Before shifting into reverse gear during parallel parking, turn on the left turn signal because the steering wheel will be turned fully to the right, causing the front of the car to shift left; Before exiting the parking spot during parallel parking, shift into drive gear and turn on the left turn signal, then turn it off promptly after exiting; When entering the right-angle turn area, turn on the left turn signal and turn it off promptly after completing the turn. Penalties for incorrect use of turn signals are as follows: Failure to use or incorrect use of turn signals before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. Turning the steering wheel within less than 3 seconds of activating the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for disqualification, 20-point deductions, 10-point deductions, and 5-point deductions. The test is passed under the following conditions: ① For large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The test items for small vehicles C1 and C2 include reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, slope parking and starting (canceled for C2), right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curves) as mandatory items (some regions also include a sixth item: highway card collection). The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include stake driving, slope parking and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing through a width-limited gate, passing through continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

What are the effects of turning off the engine without shifting to P gear?

Turning off the engine without shifting to P gear can damage the transmission and engine. It is recommended to shift to P gear before parking and turning off the engine. The following are specific details about P gear: 1. Principle: Mechanically locks the output shaft of the transmission to secure the vehicle and prevent it from moving. 2. Vehicle parking sequence: After the car has come to a complete stop on a flat road, shift the gear from D gear to P gear, then engage the handbrake to complete parking, and finally turn off the engine. 3. Safe parking: If you brake directly without shifting to P gear, the vehicle may lose its necessary braking ability. The safest and most secure practice is to shift to P gear after the vehicle has come to a complete stop.

Can I register a car purchased in another city?

It is possible to register a car purchased in another city. Below are the specific details for out-of-city registration: 1. Conditions for out-of-city registration: There is no difference between registering a car in another city and registering it locally. To register a car in another city, you will need a temporary residence permit or proof of residence from that location, along with the necessary materials for vehicle registration. Once these are prepared, you can proceed with the registration at the local vehicle management office. 2. Temporary license plates for new cars: After purchasing a car in another city, it is essential to obtain temporary license plates before driving the car back to your home city. Similarly, if you buy a car locally but need to drive it to another city, temporary license plates are required. Temporary license plates have an expiration date, and you must complete the formal registration process within their validity period. You can apply for temporary license plates up to three times.

Is it better to buy a car with full payment or a loan?

It is recommended to buy a car with full payment if you have the financial means, as it is more cost-effective. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Buying a car with a loan: When purchasing a car with a loan, you are required to buy insurance from the 4S store, along with additional fees such as deposits, interest, and handling charges. Buying a car with a loan is significantly more expensive than paying in full, which is why sales consultants at 4S stores tend to recommend financing—it increases their commission. Additionally, early repayment is considered a breach of contract. 2. Car purchase plan: If you are buying a car, it is best to list out each expense and compare them to get a clear picture. With the current competitive market, the discounts are quite attractive, so if you can pay in full, avoid taking a loan.

How to Start a Volvo Car?

Volvo car starting method: 1. First insert the key and turn on the power; 2. Step on the brake, shift to N gear to ignite, then shift from N gear to D gear; 3.

What is the Difference Between Auto Start-Stop Batteries and Regular Batteries?

Start-stop batteries have a higher number of usage cycles and a longer lifespan compared to regular batteries. Their plates are harder than those in regular batteries, and the active material is less prone to shedding, making them suitable for vehicles equipped with start-stop systems. Additionally, the start-stop function can be modified via ECU to 'default off,' requiring manual activation to take effect. Further details are as follows: 1. Start-stop batteries: These batteries are manufactured using stamping processes due to higher technical requirements. Start-stop batteries have a larger capacity and can charge and discharge rapidly. Ordinary lead-acid batteries cannot handle multiple high-current discharges in a short time, as their separators do not allow rapid ion passage. 2. Conditions for start-stop shutdown: The conditions for start-stop shutdown are stringent: low battery charge, low air temperature, low water temperature, fog lights on, distance from the last activation to the current stop being less than 300 meters, or engine speed not reaching above 1800 RPM from the last activation to the current stop.
