Test knowledge: The Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. 2. Skills test content: The road driving skills test for Subject 3 generally includes: vehicle preparation, light simulation test, starting, straight driving, gear shifting operations, lane changing, pulling over, going straight through intersections, left turns at intersections, right turns at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, and nighttime driving.

As someone who's been through the driver's license test, never stomp on the accelerator pedal like stepping on a spring during Test 3! Remember, maintaining a steady speed is what puts the examiner at ease. My driving instructor always yelled during practice: 'The accelerator isn't an on/off switch!' For instance, on straight road sections, gently press the accelerator with your right foot as if holding hot soup, feeling the car glide steadily at 30km/h. But you must ease off the gas and prepare to brake before lane changes or turns, especially when approaching school zone signs - lift your foot completely. On test day, I saw a candidate in the next lane fail instantly for rushing through a crosswalk with sudden acceleration, making the safety officer's face turn green. I recommend practicing pedal sensitivity by wrapping a tennis ball in a sock and tying it to the accelerator. I can still recall the awkward days of practicing clutch-accelerator coordination with my knees pressed against the steering wheel.

Can You Practice Driving in the Snow?

You can practice driving in the snow. Precautions for practicing driving: When students practice driving at the driving school, they need to pay attention to the way of holding the steering wheel, and secondly, pay attention to the use of the car brake, clutch, and accelerator. They must fasten their seat belts when getting into the car and be proficient in the operation and use of the lights. Only training vehicles can be used for practice driving. Private cars cannot be used as training vehicles for people who have not obtained a driver's license. Driving test standards: The content of the subject one test in the driver's license test is the assessment of traffic regulations and related knowledge, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90 or above. The content of the driver's license test is divided into subject one, subject two, subject three, and subject four. Each subject test has two chances. If both chances fail, the test will be terminated. After passing the subject one test, subjects two and three should be passed within three years.

What is the appropriate speed for novice drivers on the road?

New drivers who have just obtained their driver's license can drive at speeds of 20 km/h or 40 km/h, but it should be determined based on the road's speed limit. For example: On a road with an 80 km/h speed limit, it is advisable to drive around 60 km/h, otherwise, it may cause traffic congestion or rear-end collisions. If you are not yet familiar with driving at higher speeds, it's best to drive slower to ensure safety. Precautions for novice drivers on the road: Choose an experienced driver to accompany you: It's best for new drivers to have an experienced driver in the passenger seat to provide advice and reminders during the drive. Practice on roads with less traffic: It's recommended to practice on roads with fewer pedestrians and vehicles first, starting at lower speeds. Once familiar, you can gradually increase the speed and learn to observe road conditions, including changes in pedestrians and vehicles. Familiarize yourself with the car as soon as possible: It's important to quickly get accustomed to the car's steering wheel, accelerator, brakes, and other controls so that you can accurately judge how to respond in emergency situations.

Does modifying brakes require registration?

Registration is required. After changing the brake calipers, you must register the modification at the vehicle management office within ten days. Otherwise, the vehicle will definitely fail the annual inspection and may be mistakenly judged as an illegal modification by traffic police. If you only repaint the brake calipers, re-registration is generally not required, but specific policies may vary by region. To be safe, it's best to call ahead for confirmation. Below are relevant details: Legal behavior: Strictly speaking, modifying brake calipers is legal, so traffic police will not check it. However, it is essential to choose reliable brake calipers. After modification, the vehicle's braking performance should be tested to ensure it meets national standards (see details below). If it does not meet the standards, further adjustments are needed. Precautions: If the braking performance improves after modifying the calipers, there are no significant drawbacks, so there's no need to worry too much. It's important to note that stronger braking performance is not always better. Excessively strong braking can reduce ride comfort because the brakes become too sensitive, potentially causing motion sickness among passengers.

What is the fuel consumption of the 2009 Civic?

2009 Civic is equipped with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automatic transmission. Its fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Automatic transmission model: The combined fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is approximately 8.7 liters. 2. Manual transmission model: The fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 7.9 liters. Relevant information about car fuel consumption is as follows: 1. Constant speed fuel consumption: This refers to the fuel economy indicator when the car is driving at a constant speed on a good road surface. Since constant speed driving is a basic operating condition for cars on highways, and this type of fuel consumption is easy to measure, it is widely adopted. 2. Road cycle fuel consumption: This is the fuel economy indicator measured when the car is driven in repeated cycles according to specified speed and time regulations on the road, also known as multi-condition road cycle fuel consumption. In the speed and time regulations, each cycle includes various driving conditions, and specifies the gear shifting time, braking and stopping time, as well as the values of driving speed, acceleration, and braking deceleration for each cycle.

How many points can be added through legal learning?

Legal learning can add up to 6 points. Function of legal learning point reduction: Legal learning point reduction is about deducting existing points on the driving license, not adding points to the license, nor is it a substitute for penalty points. The points obtained for free through legal learning are used to clear penalty records. For example, if you were penalized 6 points for a violation, passing the legal learning exemption test will clear these 6 points and start anew. Regulations on legal learning point reduction: How many points can be deducted after legal learning point reduction depends on how many points the driver had before the legal learning exemption, but the cumulative deduction cannot exceed 11 points. Whether participating in legal learning point reduction or not, the driving license only has 12 points. Legal learning point reduction can only deduct existing penalty points on the license, not increase the total points to 18.

Can a motorcycle pass inspection after installing crash bars?

Motorcycles can pass inspection after installing crash bars. Function of crash bars: Crash bars are installed on the frame and serve to create an angle with the ground when the bike falls or tips over, providing a buffer against the ground and preventing the rider's legs from being pinned under the bike. Without crash bars, the fairings or engine of a motorcycle may come into direct contact with the ground during a fall, easily crushing the legs. Crash bars are undoubtedly a lifesaver in stationary falls. Classification: Common types of crash bars on the market include straight bars and racing bars. Racing bars are more suitable for beginners and riders who don't lean into turns, offering stronger protection. Straight bars provide less protection than racing bars but offer better maneuverability. It is recommended that beginners install racing bars after purchasing a motorcycle. Once they become more skilled, they can consider switching to straight bars or not using crash bars at all. Controlling your right hand is the best guarantee of your safety.
