When approaching a traffic light, gently apply the brake while maintaining a safe following distance to bring the vehicle to a smooth and gradual stop. After coming to a complete stop, engage the parking brake and shift the gear into neutral.

How to Distinguish Between the Accelerator and Brake Pedals?

Here are the specific methods to distinguish between the accelerator and brake pedals: 1. Automatic transmission models: The leftmost pedal is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. Automatic transmission models do not require manual gear shifting, as the car shifts gears automatically, so there is no clutch pedal—only the accelerator and brake, both controlled by the right foot. During driving, the left foot should not rest on the brake pedal. 2. Manual transmission models: The middle pedal is the brake, and the rightmost is the accelerator. Manual transmission models have three pedals, arranged from left to right as follows: clutch pedal, brake pedal, and accelerator pedal. In manual transmission models, the clutch pedal should only be pressed with the left foot when shifting gears; during normal driving, the left foot should not rest on any pedal. Both the brake and accelerator are controlled by the right foot.

Why was the Zhonghua V7 discontinued?

Poor owner feedback: After exceeding 20,000 kilometers, problems emerged continuously. The engine vibrated noticeably, even more severe than a three-cylinder engine, and jerking was also very pronounced. Within just a few months, numerous quality issues appeared. Initially, there was abnormal noise when braking, followed by abnormal noise from the rear suspension. The window seals also lifted, and the windows would rebound when closing, requiring multiple attempts to shut properly. The headlights would sometimes suddenly stop working. Here are the specific details of the Zhonghua V7: 1. Vehicle Positioning: The Zhonghua V7 is the flagship SUV model under the Zhonghua brand, with dimensions of 4702mm × 1932mm × 1753mm and a wheelbase of 2770mm. 2. Powertrain: The Zhonghua V7 is equipped with a 1.6T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 204 horsepower and a maximum torque of 280 Nm. The transmission system includes a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. 3. Features: Standard features across all trims include front seatbelt reminder, ESP, ABS, electronic brake-force distribution, traction control, brake assist, hill-start assist, hill descent control, electronic parking brake, AutoHold automatic parking, collision emergency system, engine immobilizer, rear parking sensors, 360° panoramic camera, power windows for all doors, and automatic door locking while driving. Mid-range models and above add multiple driving modes (Normal/Economy/Sport), front parking sensors, pre-collision safety system, and automatic emergency braking.

What does simulated 10-speed mean?

Simulated 10-speed refers to a transmission that has 10 forward gears during operation, typically found in CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) systems. Here's a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of CVT transmissions: 1. Advantages: CVT transmissions are compact, structurally simple, easy to maintain, and provide smooth operation. They are primarily used in Japanese, Korean, and some domestic vehicles. CVT transmissions allow the engine to consistently operate within an optimal RPM range, making vehicles equipped with them generally more fuel-efficient. 2. Disadvantages: The drawbacks of CVT transmissions include lower torque capacity and susceptibility to slippage. As a result, CVT transmissions are usually paired with small-displacement engines. High-displacement engines with greater torque output typically require AT (Automatic Transmission) systems instead.

What Insurance Must Be Purchased for a New Car?

New cars must have compulsory traffic insurance. Below is a detailed introduction to car insurance: 1. Compulsory Traffic Insurance: Compulsory traffic insurance is a legal requirement that every car owner must purchase. It provides the most basic insurance claims when a traffic accident occurs. In the event of an accident, compulsory traffic insurance can help the car owner cover the economic compensation that would otherwise be difficult to pay. The compensation amount for compulsory traffic insurance is determined based on the car owner's proportion of responsibility in the accident and whether it caused personal injury or death. 2. Vehicle Damage Insurance: Vehicle damage insurance refers to situations where the insured or an authorized driver causes an insured accident while driving, resulting in damage to the insured vehicle. The insurance company will provide compensation within reasonable limits. The premium for vehicle damage insurance is closely related to the purchase price of the car and the number of seats. 3. Third-Party Liability Insurance: Third-party liability insurance covers situations where an accident causes personal injury, death, or direct property damage to a third party other than the driver and passengers of the insured vehicle. The insurance company will provide compensation according to regulations.

What items are required for Subject 4?

For the Subject 4 exam, you only need to bring your ID card; no other items are required. The Subject 4 exam consists of 50 questions, primarily presented in the form of case studies, images, and animations. The total score is 100, with a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civics knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is colloquially called the Subject 4 exam. Officially, there is no such term as Subject 4. If you fail Subject 4, you do not need to retake the previously passed subjects (Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3). You can schedule a retake on your own, and no additional fees are required for the retake. There are no restrictions on the number of retakes, but the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete the exam within this period, the scores of the previously passed subjects will become invalid.
