It can be scheduled from Monday to Friday, depending on the appointment time. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Exam content: Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theoretical exam 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: besides the road test, a safe and civilized driving test was added, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called the Subject 4 exam. However, there is no official term "Subject 4" in the actual regulations. 2. Exam format: The test paper consists of 50 questions, mainly in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc. The total score is 100, with a passing score of 90.

As a driving school instructor, the most frustrating issue we face when helping students schedule the Subject 4 test is this misconception. Many assume there are fixed exam dates, but in reality, it entirely depends on the local DMV's scheduling. I advise students to immediately log into the Traffic Management 12123 APP after passing Subject 3. By accessing the 'Exam Appointment' section, they can view available slots for the next ten days. In big cities, tests are usually available daily, but weekends get booked especially fast. Smaller towns might only open two days a week. The key is to book early—the system allocates seats based on your queue position. Last week, our student Xiao Wang learned this the hard way by waiting until Thursday to book, ending up with a slot the following Wednesday. With the summer break surge, it's best to avoid end-of-month rushes. Remember to bring your ID card, and don’t lose your score sheet—you can get your license the same day after passing.

When I first got my driver's license last year, I was also confused about the timing for Subject 4. After checking the 12123 APP for three days, I found that Beijing Haidian test site offers 3-4 sessions on weekdays, with afternoon slots being easier to book than mornings. However, Changping test site only opens on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The most surprising was Tongzhou test site, which even had a 6 PM session. Once, I booked a Wednesday morning test, but due to a system glitch, it was postponed to Friday—proving there's no fixed schedule. From my experience, Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the easiest to book, avoiding the Monday and Friday rush. I recommend booking five days in advance and choosing less popular test sites for higher success rates. Also, remember not to wear slippers to the exam—my friend got turned away for that once.

Student drivers should pay special attention to time management. Test centers near university towns are usually concentrated from Wednesday to Friday, and you can generally book a slot within a week if you avoid finals season. Remember to practice questions on the driving test app in advance and only take the test when your score exceeds 92. Last month when I took the test in Suzhou, I found that the industrial park test center added special weekend sessions. But note that student IDs cannot replace ID cards—my roommate made a wasted trip because of this. Recently, evening test sessions have been added, allowing you to finish by 7 PM and still make it back to campus before curfew.

What are the requirements for new drivers on the highway?

When driving on the highway, a passenger with at least three years of driving experience must accompany the new driver in the front seat. Here are some relevant tips: 1. Speed: You don't need to drive too fast, but try to maintain a steady speed. On roads with a speed limit of 100, you can keep your speed between 80-90, as this range is more manageable for new drivers. On roads with a speed limit of 120, maintain a speed of 90-100, as these roads usually have better conditions. Stay in the middle lane and try to drive at a constant speed. 2. Following too closely: New drivers may not react well to emergencies or handle them effectively, so it's safer to keep a distance of about 200 meters from the vehicle in front. Additionally, avoid following large vehicles, as they can obstruct your view of the road ahead.

According to Article 78 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law," highways must indicate the speed limits for each lane. The maximum speed must not exceed 120 kilometers per hour, and the minimum speed must not be lower than 60 kilometers per hour. Article 67 states that pedestrians, non-motor vehicles, tractors, wheeled special machinery vehicles, articulated buses, full trailers, and other motor vehicles with a design speed of less than 70 kilometers per hour are prohibited from entering highways.

If the vehicle exceeds the speed limit by more than 20% but less than 50%, the driver will be penalized with 6 demerit points.

Why is the left side of the car body lower than the right side?

The reasons for the left side of the car body being lower than the right side are as follows: 1. There may be a problem with the shock absorber on one side of the car. 2. Or there may be an issue with the tire pressure of the car. Additional information: 1. Introduction to shock absorbers: Shock absorbers are wear-prone parts during car use. The performance of the shock absorbers directly affects the smoothness of the car's ride and the lifespan of other components, so the shock absorbers should always be kept in good working condition. 2. The reason for installing shock absorbers: To quickly dampen the vibration between the frame and the body, and to improve the smoothness and comfort of the car's ride, shock absorbers are generally installed on the car's suspension system. The most widely used type in cars is the double-acting telescopic shock absorber.
