Parallel parking should maintain a distance of approximately 30 cm from the side line. Below are specific details about parallel parking: 1. Previous parallel parking method: Four poles were placed on the ground to symbolize the four corners of the parking space. One criterion for successful parking was whether the vehicle entered the space smoothly without touching these poles. 2. After the implementation of the new traffic regulations: Parallel parking no longer uses poles; instead, ground markings are used to define the parking space boundaries. For learners obtaining a C1 driver's license, the length of the parallel parking space is 1.5 times the vehicle length plus 1 meter. Drive the vehicle to a position parallel to the parking space, then reverse into the space without any pauses. As long as the vehicle is parked within the marked boundaries without crossing the side lines, it is considered a pass.

Is there any impact when changing from 185 tires to 195 tires?

Yes. The impacts of changing from 185 tires to 195 are as follows: 1. Increased driving difficulty: The increased friction makes the steering wheel heavier during driving, and tire noise and fuel consumption also rise. 2. Higher risk of rollover: The change interferes with the geometric dimensions of the car body and suspension design, significantly increasing the turning radius, especially during sharp turns where the car is more prone to rollover. The centrifugal force from the car's tilt can lift the inner wheels off the ground. 3. Data inaccuracies: This can alter driving data, causing abnormalities in the vehicle's systems. For example, ABS, ESP, mileage, and fuel consumption are calculated based on the original tire's outer diameter. Changing the tires without the system being able to make correct judgments can affect driving performance.

What is the most suitable position to adjust the rearview mirror for reverse parking?

The most suitable position to adjust the rearview mirror for reverse parking is to maintain a vertical angle where the sky and ground each occupy half of the mirror's view, and a horizontal angle where the car body occupies about 1/4 of the mirror's surface. Below is some relevant information about reverse parking: 1. Overview: Reverse parking became a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license after 2013. It assesses the driver's ability to maneuver the vehicle in a confined space. Reverse parking is a key evaluation point in the driver's test, requiring the driver to correctly reverse the vehicle into a parking space from both sides while in motion. 2. Evaluation criteria: (1) Failure to follow the prescribed route and sequence results in disqualification. (2) If the car body crosses the line or fails to enter the parking space, it results in disqualification. (3) Exceeding 210 seconds to complete the reverse parking results in disqualification. (4) Each instance of stopping midway deducts 5 points.

Can a car be found without GPS?

If a car does not have GPS, it is impossible to check or view the driving trajectory of the vehicle. Even traffic police departments cannot accurately locate the vehicle, but they can track the general movement of the vehicle through the "Sky Net" system and traffic monitoring systems. The following situations indicate that the driving recorder installed by the vehicle owner or driver does not comply with national standards: 1. The installed driving recorder lacks an RS232 serial data interface, or the interface is damaged or non-standard, making it impossible to connect with detection equipment to collect data. 2. The installed driving recorder has an RS232 serial data interface, but after connecting with detection equipment, no data is displayed.

Crossing the line or not entering: If the car body crosses the line or fails to enter the parking space, it is disqualified. 3. Time limit exceeded: Not completing the reverse parking within 210 seconds results in disqualification. 4. Stopping midway: Each instance of stopping midway deducts 5 points. Note: Candidates who fail the reverse parking test are allowed one retake.
