It's best to seek assistance from an instructor to help identify the parallel points. Below are detailed instructions for reversing into a garage: 1. Definition: Reversing into a garage became a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license after 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to maneuver the vehicle within a confined space. This is a key evaluation point in the driver's test, requiring the candidate to correctly reverse the vehicle into the garage from both sides while in motion. 2. Test Evaluation Criteria: Failure to follow the prescribed route or sequence results in disqualification. If the vehicle body crosses the line or fails to enter the garage during reversing, the candidate is disqualified. Exceeding the 210-second time limit for completing the maneuver leads to disqualification. Each instance of stopping midway deducts 5 points.

How many points are deducted for consecutive lane changes?

Consecutive lane changes will result in a deduction of 3 points. Requirements: Changing lanes carries certain risks, so it must be done cautiously and under safe conditions. Indication: When a lane change is needed, turn on the turn signal 3 seconds in advance or use hand gestures to alert vehicles behind. Lane Change: Observe through the interior and exterior rearview mirrors, look back in the direction of the lane change to check the traffic conditions behind, judge the safe distance of the vehicle, control the driving speed, and ensure that it does not hinder the normal driving of vehicles behind in the current lane and other vehicles in the lane you are about to enter. Then, safely change lanes and turn off the turn signal after completing the lane change.

Is the same instructor used for Subject 2 and Subject 3?

Generally, there are no special circumstances, and the same instructor teaches both Subject 2 and Subject 3. This is because when students enroll in a driving school, the instructor usually continues to guide them until they obtain their driver's license. Subject 2 test items: The first item is reversing into a parking space, the second is parallel parking, the third is stopping and starting on a slope, the fourth is making a 90-degree turn, and the fifth is driving on a curved path. Subject 3 test items: The Subject 3 test items include: pre-test preparation, vehicle starting, driving straight, straight-line gear shifting, left turns, right turns, passing through traffic light intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, overtaking, using lights during night driving, and pulling over to park.

What Causes Exhaust Gas in the Crankcase?

The reasons for exhaust gas generation in the engine crankcase include: 1. Piston ring wear: Severe wear of piston rings or cylinder liners, or issues with the breather; 2. Overfilling of oil: Excessive oil filling during refueling can also lead to increased exhaust gas emission from the crankcase; 3. Gas from the air pump: If the air pump is used for engine oil cooling, gas from the air pump might also be a cause. Functions of the engine crankcase ventilation system: 1. Preventing oil deterioration; 2. Preventing leakage from crankshaft oil seals and crankcase gaskets; 3. Preventing atmospheric pollution by various oil vapors.

How Long Does a Vehicle Annual Inspection Take?

Vehicle annual inspection takes approximately 2-3 hours. Below are the details regarding vehicle annual inspection: Vehicle annual inspection schedule: For cars and blue license plate minivans, within the first six years after new vehicle registration, inspection is required every two years; after six years, it becomes an annual inspection; after ten years, inspection is required once a year, and after fifteen years, twice a year. For trucks, after registration, inspection is required annually, and after ten years, twice a year. Regulations on vehicle annual inspection: If a vehicle is found by traffic police on the road without annual inspection, the owner will be fined or the vehicle will be impounded. Meanwhile, in insurance contracts, vehicles that have not undergone timely annual inspection are considered unqualified, and no compensation will be provided in case of a car insurance accident.

Are 7-seater vehicles also exempt from inspection for 6 years now?

Yes, they are exempt from inspection for six years. New regulations for 7-seater vehicle inspections in 2021: 1. Non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles with 7 to 9 seats within 6 years are included in the exemption range. 2. For non-operational mini and micro passenger vehicles over 6 years but under 10 years, the inspection frequency is adjusted from once per year to once every two years. Below is additional information: 1. Three situations where the exemption policy does not apply: minivans; vehicles that have been legally penalized for illegal modifications; vehicles involved in traffic accidents causing casualties. Additionally, vehicles that have not completed registration procedures for over 4 years since the date of manufacture are not eligible for the 6-year exemption policy. 2. Documents required for annual inspection: owner's ID card; original vehicle registration certificate; valid compulsory traffic insurance policy; proof of vehicle and vessel tax payment (or exemption) for the current year (vehicle and vessel tax proof is generally included in the compulsory traffic insurance policy).

What are the adverse effects of overfilling engine oil in a truck?

The adverse effects of overfilling engine oil in a truck are as follows: 1. Increased fuel consumption and reduced power: If excessive lubricant is added, violent agitation of components will occur during engine operation, increasing internal power loss. The elevated oil level also increases crankshaft resistance, leading to greater oil churning loss. This results in reduced power output, higher fuel consumption, noticeable sluggish acceleration, and increased noise during driving. 2. Decreased engine power: Significantly more oil entering the combustion chamber leads to increased carbon deposits, raising piston movement resistance and reducing engine power. 3. Failed emission standards: Increased oil entering the combustion chamber worsens exhaust emissions. In severe cases, it may cause catalytic converter poisoning and damage. 4. Oil leakage: Vigorous oil agitation raises crankcase pressure. Prolonged pressure on crankshaft oil seals accelerates aging and deformation, ultimately causing lubricant leakage while shortening its service life.
