How Soon Can You Take the Subject 4 Test After Passing Subject 3?

There are three scenarios for the Subject 4 test timing after passing Subject 3: taking it directly in the afternoon of the same day; no appointment required within 9 days—you can take the Subject 4 test at the designated location with your ID within 9 days of passing Subject 3; or scheduling after 10 days, where success depends on current test-taker numbers, student priority, and temporary test center arrangements. Subject 4, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It covers 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-traffic-accident procedures. Subject 4 Test Notes: Test Duration: The test lasts 45 minutes, and answering 5 questions incorrectly (10 points) will terminate the session. Question Count: 50 questions are randomly selected from the Subject 4 question bank based on the type of license being tested, with each question worth 2 points. Question Types: The test includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions, featuring animation-based, image-based, scenario-recognition, and text-based questions. Retake Notes: Failing Subject 4 only requires retaking Subject 4, scheduled by the driving school without retake limits or fees. Subject 4 Test Tips: Strengthen weak areas by identifying error causes. For marked questions, avoid memorizing answers—review regulations, textbooks, or references to understand mistakes. Categorize and summarize questions, referring to the question bank's analysis to identify similar questions. For example, traffic signs like "Pedestrian," "Walking," "Pedestrian Crossing," and "Caution: Pedestrian Crossing" are easily confused—group them for clarity. Use memorization techniques: Many questions involve numbers—organize them for easier recall. There are three main driving test subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3 (which has two parts). Subject 4 is the colloquial term for the "Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test" under Subject 3, not a separate subject. Subject 1 covers traffic laws and regulations; Subject 2 assesses field driving skills; Subject 3 evaluates road driving skills and safety knowledge, with the latter taken after Subject 3.

I just passed the Subject 3 test, and it feels amazing! My driving school instructor told me that I can schedule the Subject 4 test right after passing Subject 3. On the day of the test, I immediately applied for the Subject 4 appointment on the driving school app, and it was scheduled for the following week—super convenient. After passing, make sure to log in to the Traffic Management 12123 app to check the appointment time or contact your driving school for assistance. Subject 4 is a written test, so practicing with mock questions is crucial. I spent half an hour daily on the mobile question bank, and the results were excellent. Remember, taking Subject 4 as soon as possible after passing will help you get your driver's license faster—don't delay too long. The entire process of getting a driver's license can be exhausting, but stay confident and act promptly.

As an experienced driver, I'd like to share some insights: After passing Subject 3, you can usually take Subject 4 shortly after. On the day I passed, I took my score report to the DMV to apply for Subject 4. The scheduling depends on local arrangements, typically within a few days to a week. The key is to review traffic safety knowledge in advance—the question bank isn't difficult but requires focused memorization. I recommend using the 'Driving Test Prep' app for practice to avoid nervous mistakes during the exam. Waiting too long might lead to rustiness, so act promptly after Subject 3—mastering safety knowledge early brings early benefits. Vehicle regulations concern driving safety, and Subject 4 is a crucial step for reinforcement. After years of driving, I've gained deeper appreciation for the importance of safe driving.

From the driving school's perspective, after passing Subject 3, students can directly apply for the Subject 4 exam. Typically, they can schedule it on the same day or the next day, depending on the traffic management office's scheduling notice. We assist students with the booking process or guide them through the operation on the 12123 traffic management app. The Subject 4 question bank covers topics like road traffic safety, and one week of review is sufficient. Students should promptly check the app or SMS notifications to avoid missing the exam time. If the exam goes smoothly, the process of obtaining the driver's license can be twice as fast. Prepare the required paper materials in advance to avoid delays in the driving process. Safety knowledge is the foundation of daily driving, so it's best to strike while the iron is hot.

What is the fuel tank capacity of a Xiali in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of a Xiali is 37 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased a Xiali can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for Xiali is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.1L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 607 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.

What Causes the Loud Noise from the Car Fan?

The loud noise from the car fan is mainly caused by three reasons. Below is a detailed explanation of these three causes: 1. Exhaust fan blades: The exhaust fan, driven by an electric motor, rotates the blades to drive airflow, facilitating air exchange between indoor and outdoor environments as part of an air conditioning appliance. When the blades of the exhaust fan inside the air conditioner become deformed, it can result in a louder noise, and it is recommended to replace the exhaust fan. 2. Exhaust fan motor: The purpose of exhaust is to remove stale indoor air and regulate temperature, humidity, and comfort. If the motor of the exhaust fan inside the air conditioner is damaged, it can lead to a louder noise, and it is recommended to replace the exhaust fan. 3. Excessive debris: If there is a significant amount of debris inside the air conditioner, it is advisable to clean the air conditioner.

Where to Place the ETC Tag?

The ETC installation position is generally in the upper middle part of the front windshield horizontally, while for large vehicles such as trucks and buses, the installation position is in the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be at a height of no less than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with factory-installed or aftermarket explosion-proof films, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC should be installed in the microwave skylight strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply, the vehicle owner must provide original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle registration certificate. If the application is made by a proxy, the proxy's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle registration certificate should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is required, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. Documents required for company vehicles: An introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the proxy; original vehicle registration certificate; the vehicle for which ETC is to be applied. Below are the precautions for ETC installation: Do not obstruct the driver's view; it is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have a large tilt angle of the windshield, resulting in a smaller driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it will increase the driver's blind spot. Install it behind the rearview mirror on the right side to avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement, as it has a solar panel on the back for self-charging. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Do not remove it randomly once installed: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. Once the electronic tag is installed on the windshield, the anti-removal lever will be pressed in. If removed randomly, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. You will then need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. Points to note when using ETC: The ETC transaction sensing range is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic toll deduction for the wrong vehicle; the recognition speed for ETC lanes is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information and toll deduction failure; when using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

How to Use the Handbrake, Lift or Lower?

When starting, the handbrake needs to be lowered, and when parking, the handbrake needs to be pulled up. Additional Information: 1. Remember to Engage the Handbrake When Parking: Some drivers forget to engage the handbrake after parking, resulting in the car moving without a driver and causing accidents. Especially on slopes, ensure the car is in gear and the handbrake is engaged, waiting for the vehicle to stabilize before exiting. 2. Handbrake is Often Used in Conjunction with Neutral Gear: Even during brief stops like at red lights, engaging the handbrake can prevent the car from rolling on uneven roads and give your right foot a short break. Use nearby stationary objects as a reference to check for any movement. 3. Lower the Handbrake When Starting: When starting the car, make sure to lower the handbrake. Remember to press the button and ensure it is fully lowered. Many beginners forget to release the handbrake, which can cause damage to it.
