Should You Step on the Gas When Overtaking in Subject Three?

1 Answers

When performing an overtaking maneuver in Subject Three, you should lightly press the gas pedal. If you don’t accelerate while changing lanes to overtake, the speed will be too low, causing a mismatch between the gear and speed, which will result in an immediate failure during the test. Upon hearing the voice prompt "Please complete the overtaking action," the candidate should turn on the left turn signal (for more than 3 seconds) and simultaneously observe the traffic situation behind through the left rearview mirror. Only after confirming it is safe should the candidate turn the steering wheel to the left and enter the left lane to overtake. Below are some tips for the Subject Three test: Follow the voice instructions: Listen carefully to the voice prompts during Subject Three and act accordingly. Do not perform any actions before the voice prompt ends; wait until it finishes before proceeding. Pay attention to special zones: In many areas, the voice prompts no longer remind candidates of special zones such as school areas, bus stops, and crosswalks. However, candidates must still slow down or yield based on the project signs and road markings. In school zones, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, keeping the speed below 30 km/h. At bus stops, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, maintaining a speed below 30 km/h. Before a crosswalk, slow down by applying the brakes within 30 meters, and stop to yield if pedestrians are crossing.

Will the Car's Second Gear Automatically Pop Out When Engaged?

The car's second gear will not automatically pop out when engaged, because once the gear is properly engaged, the transmission will lock that gear in place. Downshift after deceleration: Before upshifting, increase the vehicle speed; before downshifting, release the throttle to reduce the speed first. Before shifting gears, the clutch pedal must be fully depressed, and the gearshift lever should be operated gently, quickly, smoothly, and accurately. Master the timing of gear shifting: Shift gears when the engine speed is around 2000 RPM. First press the accelerator, then depress the clutch, and the clutch will not be forcibly disengaged. Then proceed to shift gears. The downshift sequence is based on the vehicle speed. Depending on the car's condition, generally, when the engine speed drops below around 1500 RPM, a downshift is needed. Make the gear shifting action continuous: Depress the clutch fully in one motion, and engage the gear in one step. Familiarize yourself with the gear positions. If you encounter difficulty engaging a gear, shift to neutral, release the clutch briefly, depress the clutch again, and then you can engage the gear.

What does the off button in the car mean?

Car's off button is the deactivation switch for the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. This system is enabled by default and can be turned off by long-pressing this button. Many vehicles are equipped with this system, but naming conventions vary across different brands and technology providers. For instance, Honda calls it VSA, Toyota refers to it as VSC, Nissan names it VDC, and BMW labels it DSC. Despite the different names, their working principles are essentially similar - they all serve as active safety features. The system operates by detecting when the rotational speed difference between left and right wheels exceeds the computer's preset threshold, which the system interprets as vehicle skidding or fishtailing. It then responds by applying individual wheel braking and reducing engine torque output to control and prevent skidding or fishtailing situations. The off button also integrates functions of the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist System (BAS), Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR), and Traction Control System (TCS).

Vehicle Steering Wheel Usage Tips?

Here is the correct way to hold the steering wheel: 1. Imagine the steering wheel as a circular clock face. Place your left hand at the 9 o'clock position and your right hand at the 3 o'clock position, forming a posture similar to 9:15 or 10:10 on a clock. Gently grip the steering wheel with both hands, keeping your thumbs naturally extended along the edge of the wheel, while the other four fingers should lightly wrap around the wheel from the outside inward. 2. When turning the steering wheel, use your left and right hands to push the wheel to naturally steer the vehicle. For a right turn, your left hand should grip the wheel and rotate it from the 9 o'clock position to the 12 o'clock position, while your right hand slides from the 3 o'clock position to the 12 o'clock position. Then, your right hand should grip the wheel and pull it downward from the 12 o'clock position to the 6 o'clock position. At the same time, your left hand slides from the 12 o'clock position to the 6 o'clock position on the opposite side of the wheel and grips it. At this point, the wheel has rotated half a turn in your hands. For sharper turns, simply repeat the above steps. To return the wheel to the straight position after turning, rotate it in the opposite direction. The principle for a left turn is the same as for a right turn.

Why is the clutch stiff?

Clutch stiffness is most likely caused by a broken or jammed return spring in the clutch master cylinder. Here is some relevant information about the clutch: Clutch: The clutch is located inside the flywheel housing between the engine and the transmission. The clutch assembly is secured to the rear plane of the flywheel with screws, and the output shaft of the clutch is the input shaft of the transmission. While driving, the driver can press or release the clutch pedal as needed to temporarily disconnect or gradually engage the engine and transmission, thereby cutting off or transmitting the power from the engine to the transmission. Principle of releasing the clutch: The principle of releasing the clutch is: "slow at first, fast in the middle, and coordinated at the end." When initially pressing down, it should be done quickly and all the way to the bottom. When lifting the pedal, the free travel should be quick, but slow when nearing contact. At the semi-engagement point, pause briefly before releasing completely. The key to this process is finding the semi-engagement point accurately. To control the vehicle speed effectively, use the semi-engagement point as the dividing line—lifting quickly above it and lowering slowly below it, adjusting to find a speed that suits you.

Is Japan Left-Hand Drive or Right-Hand Drive?

Japanese cars are right-hand drive. Here is more information about right-hand drive vehicles: 1. Right-hand drive: This means the driver's seat is positioned on the right side of the car's cabin. In right-hand drive vehicles, the driver sits on the right, and the car drives on the left side of the road. Conversely, in left-hand drive vehicles, the driver sits on the left, and the car drives on the right side of the road. In China, the steering wheel is on the left side, generally referred to as left-hand drive. 2. Habit: In Chinese cars, the gearshift is on the right side, while in right-hand drive vehicles, it is on the left side. Even with an automatic transmission, it can feel unfamiliar to use. 3. Road planning: In China, road design gives right turns higher priority than left turns. Since the driver sits on the left, the right-side view is relatively narrower. To avoid accidents, right turns have higher priority. In contrast, right-hand drive vehicles give left turns higher priority.

Engine Overheating and Stalling Due to Water Shortage?

Timely solutions for engine overheating and stalling due to water shortage: 1. Find a safe spot to pull over, let the vehicle idle, and do not turn off the engine. 2. Open the hood to increase airflow. After the water temperature drops, slightly loosen the radiator cap to release internal steam before fully opening it. 3. Check if the coolant is sufficient and top it up if needed. 4. If there are leaks in the radiator hoses or faults like a malfunctioning thermostat, call for roadside assistance. Consequences of engine overheating due to water shortage: 1. Decreased engine air intake efficiency—higher temperatures reduce air density, lowering actual air intake. 2. Overheating raises underhood temperatures, further reducing engine air intake capacity. 3. Water shortage causes abnormal combustion, increasing knock risk and reducing engine power. 4. Thermal degradation of engine components and altered component clearances. 5. High engine temperature triggers the dashboard coolant warning light, sometimes accompanied by white smoke from the engine bay.
