There is no voice prompt for gear shifting in Subject 3. During the test, the voice system will only announce "Please complete the gear shifting project." Upon hearing this, the examinee must smoothly shift from second gear to fourth gear and then back down to second gear in sequence. There are no voice prompts during the gear shifting process, but it must be completed within a limited distance. For example, when using first and second gears, the driving distance cannot exceed 500 meters. Items in Subject 3 without voice prompts: It is understood that in Subject 3, there are no voice announcements for passing pedestrian crossings, school intersections, or public transportation stops. Examinees must apply the brakes themselves and handle these sections independently. Therefore, it is essential to remember the route clearly during the subsequent test and not rely solely on voice announcements. During the test, it is advisable to drive slowly, stay observant, and prepare in advance for entering intersections to minimize unexpected situations. Notes: Additionally, other items in Subject 3, such as vehicle preparation, starting, driving straight, changing lanes, turning left, turning right, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making a U-turn, simulating nighttime driving, and parking by the roadside, all have voice announcements. Examinees only need to complete the corresponding operations based on the prompts. However, it is worth noting that driving test requirements may vary slightly between regions, and voice announcements may differ accordingly. It is best to clarify these details with the local driving school instructor.

Is the R8 the Only Supercar in BBA?

The Audi R8 is the only supercar in BBA (Benz, BMW, Audi). Others like the BMW i8 and Mercedes-Benz SLS have already been discontinued, while models such as the Mercedes GTR only offer mid-range performance. Therefore, the Audi R8 is generally considered the only supercar in BBA. The Audi R8 is a mid-engine, two-seater sports car introduced by the German automaker Audi in 2006, with a top speed of 316 km/h. It is Audi's first mass-produced mid-engine supercar, developed on the Lamborghini Gallardo platform, combining Audi's winning experience from various motorsport events, cutting-edge technology, and a groundbreaking design that defies convention. The Audi R8 is Audi's first mass-produced mid-engine supercar, built on the Lamborghini Gallardo platform. Its powerful V8 and V10 engines, full-time all-wheel-drive system, and Audi's all-aluminum space frame structure give the R8 outstanding dynamic performance. Performance: The mid-mounted 420-horsepower V8 engine in the Audi R8, combined with quattro and direct fuel injection technology, delivers 309 kW of power. This enables the new Audi R8 to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds, with a maximum engine speed of 8,250 rpm, peak torque of 430 Nm, and a top speed of 301 km/h.

Can Tesla Cars Drive on Highways?

Tesla cars can drive on highways. However, before driving on the highway, it's essential to check the vehicle's range to avoid getting stranded. Make sure to clearly understand the range and then plan the next service area accordingly. This way, you can monitor the battery level and prevent sudden shutdowns on the highway. Below is additional information about Tesla's battery lifespan: 1. Tesla is a high-end electric vehicle, and its lithium-ion batteries typically last up to 8 years without issues, as they come with an 8-year warranty. With current advanced technology, lithium-ion batteries have a long lifespan. 2. Based on lithium battery warranty principles, the battery retains 80% capacity within 800 charge cycles and 50% within 2000 cycles. Assuming a Tesla battery provides 500 kilometers per charge and is charged once a week (about 60 charges per year), 2000 charge cycles would allow the battery to last over 30 years. If well-maintained, even after 30 years, the battery could still provide 250 kilometers per charge, which is sufficient for non-long-distance travel.

Why does neutral coasting occur in Subject 3?

The reason for neutral coasting in Subject 3 is: The car is not engaged in any forward gear while moving, but remains in the neutral position, using inertia to coast. After the car's speed decreases, a higher gear is engaged to gradually accelerate and increase speed. Precautions for the Subject 3 test are as follows: 1. Lane change: When the student hears "Please change lanes," the turn signal should be activated, and the steering wheel can only be turned after the signal has been on for 3 seconds. 2. Straight-line driving: Students should try to look as far ahead as possible to maintain a straight path. Once straight-line driving begins, the steering wheel should not be turned arbitrarily, nor should the solid lane line be crossed. 3. Slow down: When passing through crosswalks, school zones, bus stops, or straight intersections, students should lightly press the brake pedal to slow down.

What does ACC mean on a dash cam?

ACC on a dash cam is the abbreviation for Adaptive Cruise Control, which is generally used in vehicles. Controlled by the vehicle's central control system, ACC is responsible for detecting the presence of vehicles ahead, automatically maintaining a safe distance from the preceding vehicle, and can apply automatic braking in emergency situations. The following are the functions of a dash cam: Recording travel routes: It can record the places the vehicle has been to and passed through. Reconstructing accident scenes: In the event of a collision, it can record the scene at the time of the accident, facilitating claims. Protecting the vehicle: Some dash cams are equipped with sound detection features. When parked, if someone touches the vehicle, it will automatically start recording, making it easier to report and claim later. Some have motion detection activation, automatically starting recording when an object passes through the detection area, making it convenient to gather evidence for claims. Description of dash cam keys is as follows: Video recording mode: After pressing the power on/off key or connecting the charger, the dash cam will automatically enter recording mode and start recording. At this time, the blue indicator light flashes. Press REC/SNAP to stop recording, and the indicator light stays on. Press the MENU key to enter the main menu. Photo mode: After turning on, press the MODE key to select and enter photo mode, then press REC/SNAP to take a photo. Press the MENU key to enter the submenu. Preview mode: Press the MODE key to enter preview mode, press UP and DOWN to select video files or photo files, press REC/SNAP to play or pause, and press MODE to exit preview. Date and time settings: In the video recording interface (when stopped), press the menu key, then press the MODE key, select Item, press MENU or REC to enter the next MENU, press MENU or REC to select the setting item. In the date and time setting interface, press REC or MENU to proceed to the next setting, use UP/DOWN to adjust year/month/day and time, and press MENU or REC to confirm and exit after setting. Generally, dash cams automatically turn on when the vehicle starts and automatically turn off after the engine is turned off, but they can automatically record for 3 to 6 hours after the engine is turned off: Powered by the cigarette lighter, these dash cams usually have built-in lithium batteries. When the vehicle is not started (ACC is off), they will record for a while using the lithium battery before shutting down. Dash cams connected to the battery and ACC power supply use the battery for power, with ACC only used for power detection. Generally, such dash cams also stop working when ACC is off. Some dash cams allow control over this shutdown time, and customers can request longer recording times after shutdown, but this is a personalized requirement. If the dash cam is directly powered by the battery instead of ACC, it will continue recording after the vehicle is turned off, which will definitely consume power. Generally, dash cams consume 12V, 200ma. If the vehicle battery is 60AH, theoretically, it would take 60/0.2=300 hours (over 12 days) to deplete the battery. A typical vehicle battery needs at least 30% charge reserved (up to 8.5 days of recording) to ensure normal startup. The exact duration can be calculated based on the battery used in the vehicle.

What is the safe driving distance on highways during snowy conditions?

Snowy roads are slippery, and the braking distance is longer than on dry asphalt roads; visibility is low in snowy conditions, so the safe distance should be controlled according to visibility. Visibility below 200 meters: the speed should not exceed 60 km/h, and a minimum distance of 150 meters should be maintained from the vehicle ahead in the same lane to ensure safety. Visibility below 50 meters: the maximum speed should be 20 km/h, and you should exit the highway at the nearest exit. Longer safe distance: In adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow, or fog, where visibility is low, the road is slippery, and vehicle load affects performance, the safe distance should be longer than on dry asphalt roads. The safe distance on snowy or icy roads is three times that on dry roads. Due to slippery roads in snowy conditions, stay updated on road conditions and minimize driving if possible. When driving on icy or snowy roads, stay focused, maintain a safe distance, drive at a low and steady speed, and avoid unnecessary lane changes or overtaking. When braking, use intermittent braking or downshift to reduce speed. When turning, slow down and increase the turning radius. Anticipate situations and reduce speed in advance, avoiding sharp turns or sudden braking. Snow-covered or icy roads have low friction coefficients, reducing braking efficiency and increasing the risk of skidding. When driving through sharp curves or slippery roads prone to skidding, strictly control your speed. If the vehicle skids, do not sharply turn the steering wheel or apply emergency brakes. Maintain a low and steady speed while driving in snowy conditions, avoiding unnecessary lane changes or overtaking. When starting on icy or snowy roads, gently accelerate and slowly release the clutch. During driving, maintain a safe speed and distance, and follow existing tire tracks when possible. Avoid driving on snow-covered or unknown road sections.
