Auto insurance does not necessarily pay exactly the assessed damage amount. If the actual incurred costs (such as vehicle repair fees, victim medical expenses, and property losses) are higher than or equal to the assessed amount, the claim will be settled based on the assessed amount, meaning you get what was assessed. However, if the actual costs are lower than the assessed amount, the claim will be settled based on the actual incurred costs. More details about vehicle damage assessment insurance are as follows: 1. Introduction 1: Vehicle damage assessment involves a scientific and systematic professional inspection, testing, and investigation to comprehensively analyze the collision and accident scene, followed by a scientific and systematic estimation of the repair costs. 2. Introduction 2: The actual vehicle repair costs and the victim's actual medical expenses may differ from the "estimated damage assessment." They might match exactly, but in most cases, the actual incurred costs will be higher or lower than the assessed amount.

Why Does Practicing Driving Become More Confusing?

Here are the reasons why practicing driving can become more confusing: Mindset: Many students have strong self-esteem and are unwilling to accept that junior students might perform better than them. They also tend to seek quick success and instant benefits. Constantly changing methods: Switching methods without sticking to one makes it hard to determine which approach works best. It's better to master one method thoroughly, practice repeatedly, communicate with peers when encountering issues, and consult the coach frequently. Inconsistent practice: It's crucial to strike while the iron is hot—saving time and effort. Avoid practicing sporadically, like coming today and then again after half a month, as this leads to forgetting previously learned techniques. Weak foundation: Without a solid foundation, confidence dwindles as training progresses, making it easier to get nervous during exams.

Does Touching the Line with the Rear of the Car in Subject 2 Mean Immediate Failure?

Touching the line means the car body crosses the line. In the Subject 2 exam, crossing the line with the car body results in a 100-point deduction, leading to failure of the current test. In addition to the car body crossing the line, other actions that result in a 100-point deduction include failing to park properly in reverse, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, and exceeding the allotted time. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deductions, 10-point deductions, and 5-point deductions. The test is passed if the following conditions are met: ① For applicants of large passenger vehicles, trailers, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. If a candidate fails the Subject 2 test, they are allowed one immediate retake. If the candidate does not take the retake or fails the retake, the current test is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of test attempts for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five. If the fifth attempt is still unsuccessful, the results of other previously passed subjects will be invalidated.

How to Reset the AdBlue Warning Light?

The method to reset the AdBlue warning light is quite simple—just refill the diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), commonly known as automotive urea, vehicle urea, or automotive environmental urea. Below are the details related to the AdBlue warning light: 1. Automotive Environmental Urea: AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid, also referred to as automotive environmental urea. When the AdBlue warning light appears on the dashboard, it’s necessary to check and replenish the urea. Not all diesel vehicles require automotive urea; only those equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) exhaust after-treatment technology need it. 2. Principle: AdBlue is stored in a urea tank mounted on the chassis. The urea tank supplies the solution to a dosing unit (DU) installed on the chassis. The DU is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM). The DU uses compressed air from the vehicle’s system to generate an AdBlue spray, which is delivered to the nozzle in the engine’s exhaust system through a highly precise metering and pumping system.

Is There Any Danger if the Vehicle License Is Leaked?

Leaking vehicle license information is not serious and generally poses no major issues. Below is relevant information: Vehicle License Plate Replacement: To replace a vehicle license plate, the owner must present their original ID card and the vehicle registration certificate (the large green booklet issued at the time of registration). Without these two documents, the plate cannot be replaced. If someone is acting on behalf of the owner, they must present their own original ID card, the owner's original ID card, and the vehicle registration certificate. The vehicle license alone is not sufficient. Risks of Information Leakage: The biggest risk of leaking vehicle license information is that the vehicle could be cloned by others. Regulations clearly state: For vehicles confirmed to have been cloned, traffic violation records incurred during the period of cloning can be voided, and the owner may apply for a new license plate number and vehicle license.
