Renting a car requires a driver's license as well as an ID card. Without a driver's license, you cannot rent a car. During the rental period, the primary driver must hold the original driver's license that meets the driving qualifications and the corresponding auxiliary translation documents, and the original driver's license must be within the valid period. Below is additional information: 1. Most car rental companies require the driver to have held the license for at least one year, and for certain special vehicle models, the driver must have held the license for two or even three years or more. Please check the order terms for the selected vehicle group for details. 2. Some foreign car rental companies have age restrictions for drivers, such as those under 25 years old needing to pay a young driver risk fee. Specific regulations vary depending on the foreign car rental company.

Why Can't I Check My Driver's License Exam Scores?

The reason you can't check your driver's license exam scores is that obtaining the license indicates the completion of the learning phase, so online platforms naturally don't retain exam scores. How to check scores after obtaining the license: After passing all subject exams, the relevant records of driving skill learning and score sheets will be sealed together into the driving test archive, which is then kept by the Vehicle Management Office. If you want to check your driving test scores after obtaining the license, you can only do so by inquiring about the driving test archive at the Vehicle Management Office; it cannot be checked online. Process for checking scores at the Vehicle Management Office: Generally, if you have already obtained your driver's license, you can check your driving test scores at the Vehicle Management Office where the license was issued by presenting your ID card. Explain the situation to the staff, and they will naturally retrieve the driving test archive for you.

Does BMW Generally Need Engine Removal After Water Wading?

It depends on the situation. If the engine stalls suddenly in water, removal is necessary. Short-term immersion while the engine is off is generally fine, but it's best to have it inspected at a 4S dealership. Flood-damaged Vehicles: Flood-damaged vehicles refer to cars that have been submerged in water, typically involving water exposure to the engine and transmission, with immersion depth exceeding wheel and seat levels, or prolonged contact between underbody components and water. Such vehicles pose significant risks as their electrical systems are prone to short circuits and potential fires. Post-flood Inspection Methods: Visible mud lines on the middle pillars between front and rear doors indicate the vehicle's submersion height. If mud is found after prying open the rubber seals around front/rear windshields with a screwdriver, it confirms complete submersion. Water levels exceeding the hood also classify as full submersion.

What are the gears of the Buick Regal automatic transmission?

P (Parking Gear): When this gear is engaged, the transmission locking mechanism activates, so it should only be engaged after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. 2. R (Reverse Gear): Engage the reverse gear when the vehicle needs to move backward. Note that the vehicle must be completely stopped before shifting into reverse. 3. N (Neutral Gear): The neutral gear is located after the reverse gear. When engaged, the engine's power is not transmitted to the wheels, and it is generally used for short-term parking. 4. D (Drive Gear): Used when the vehicle is moving forward. The drive gear is located below the neutral gear. 5. M (Manual Gear): In manual mode, the driver needs to shift gears manually. Typically, pushing the lever up shifts to a higher gear, and pushing it down shifts to a lower gear. Manual mode can enhance the driving experience.
