Corolla tires need to be replaced every 5 years or 60,000 kilometers. Here is the extended content: 1. Check the tire surface for obvious damage, bulges, deformations, punctures, cracks, etc. Excessive debris should be cleaned promptly. If visible cracks or cuts are present on the tire sidewall, they may lead to air leaks or even tire blowouts in the future. 2. Inspect the wear condition and whether the tread is aging. Those familiar with basic tire knowledge know that each tire has a wear indicator mark, which serves as a reference for tire wear. When the tread depth wears below 1.6mm, the tires should be replaced. For household cars, tires can generally be replaced every 60,000 kilometers or 5 years, but tires with severely worn treads should be replaced earlier.

Why is my application for the Subject 1 exam still under review?

When applying for the Subject 1 exam online, the reservation status typically shows whether it was successful or not within 24 hours. If the reservation page continues to display "under review," it indicates that the reservation was unsuccessful, and you need to cancel and reapply. Below is an introduction to the driving test subjects: 1. Subject 1: The exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. The structure of the exam question bank and the basic question types are determined by the Ministry of Public Security, while provincial traffic management departments under the public security authorities establish the exam question bank for their respective provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) based on local conditions. 2. Subject 2: The field driving skills test, which includes: reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, driving along a curve, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject 2 consists of nine mandatory items: reversing into a parking space, turning at a right angle, parallel parking, driving through a tunnel, stopping to take a card, driving along a curve, making a U-turn on a narrow road, emergency stopping, and stopping and starting on a slope. 3. Subject 3: The road driving skills test, which includes basic items such as: preparing to drive (walking around the vehicle counterclockwise, fastening the seat belt, turning on the left turn signal, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, and honking the horn), starting, driving straight, changing lanes, passing through intersections, pulling over, passing through pedestrian crosswalks, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. 4. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving knowledge, which tests related knowledge on safe and civilized driving.

How long after passing Subject 1 will Subject 2 become invalid?

According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the validity period of the study driving certificate is three years, but the expiration date must not exceed the upper age limit for application. Applicants must complete the Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests within the validity period. If the tests are not completed within the validity period, the passing scores of already completed subjects will become invalid. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test format is computer-based, with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 consists of 100 single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 test 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 test precautions: During the Subject 1 test, students should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the examination room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned seat and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect your score sheet and sign it—failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times Subject 1 can be scheduled. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if failed. If the retake is not attended or is failed, the test session ends, and the applicant must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five test attempts, and rescheduling must be done at least ten days later. If the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test is failed, the passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge test. 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."

Why is there a hump in the middle of the rear seats of a car?

The reason for the hump in the middle of the rear seats is to reserve space for four-wheel drive and to increase strength. Reserving space for four-wheel drive: Many SUV models and rear-wheel-drive vehicles have to make a hump in the rear seats to reserve space for the drive shaft. In comparison, front-wheel-drive vehicles have a lower hump because they do not need to accommodate a large component like the drive shaft, only needing to reserve space for components such as the exhaust pipe and muffler. Increasing strength: Vehicles with a rear seat hump do not necessarily have higher body strength, but some models increase the hump to enhance body strength. These two aspects are not contradictory, as many models add a steel beam in the middle of the rear seats to increase strength. Increasing the height between the car chassis and the ground: Because the chassis of a family car cannot be too close to the ground, as it would threaten driving safety. Early German car manufacturing used a frame structure, the most important feature of which was to ensure the integrity of the car body during collisions, thereby protecting passengers inside. Due to the structural nature of the frame, the middle of the rear seats was raised. Therefore, German and American cars often have a more noticeable hump in the middle of the rear seats, while Japanese and Korean cars have less of one. Arranging the exhaust pipe and drive shaft requires a certain hump in the rear seats of a car. Family cars are generally front-wheel-drive vehicles, lacking a drive shaft, so some cars may not have a hump in the middle of the rear seats. However, rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles must use a drive shaft to power the rear axle. This raises an issue: the exhaust pipe also needs to pass through the middle of the chassis. Arranging both together is not feasible, so a groove is designed to accommodate the drive shaft and exhaust pipe. The groove design enhances the hardness of the chassis, improving the overall safety of the vehicle. As a result, there is a hump in the middle of the rear seats, making the car's layout more reasonable and the chassis safer. For safety reasons, car manufacturers may have the capability and technology to change the layout of the rear seat hump. However, they do not do so because the groove design of the chassis and the frame design of the entire vehicle are intended to ensure the quality and safety of the car. Even though this design increases manufacturing and design costs, for a car, the most important thing is to withstand collisions without deformation while on the road and to protect the lives of passengers.
