The classification of vehicles is primarily based on parameters such as wheelbase and vehicle length. Vehicle classes are mainly divided into subcompact cars, compact cars, midsize cars, and full-size cars. Dimensions for each vehicle class: Subcompact cars: The wheelbase of subcompact cars ranges between 2350mm and 2600mm, with a body length between 3700mm and 4450mm. Compact cars: The wheelbase of compact cars ranges between 2500mm and 2750mm, with a body length between 4300mm and 4750mm. Compact cars are the preferred choice for family vehicles, meeting daily commuting needs with relatively low operating costs, making them the mainstream models in the domestic market. Midsize cars: The wheelbase of midsize cars ranges between 2650mm and 2950mm, with a body length between 4600mm and 5000mm. Midsize cars are often used for business purposes in the domestic market. Full-size cars: The wheelbase of full-size cars exceeds 2900mm, with a body length exceeding 5100mm.

How Does the Airbag Deployment Work?

Airbag deployment works as follows: sensors detect the intensity of a car collision and transmit the sensed signal to the controller. The controller receives and processes the signal from the sensors. When it determines that airbag deployment is necessary, it immediately sends an ignition signal to trigger the gas generator. Upon receiving the ignition signal, the gas generator rapidly ignites and produces a large amount of gas to inflate the airbag. Precautions for using airbags include: 1. Airbags must be used in conjunction with seat belts; 2. Maintain an appropriate distance from the airbag while seated; 3. Do not place objects in front of, above, or near the airbag; 4. Maintain good driving habits to ensure a certain distance between your chest and the steering wheel.

What are the penalty standards for making a U-turn in Subject 3?

Failing to correctly observe traffic conditions and choose the appropriate time for a U-turn will result in disqualification; selecting an inappropriate location for a U-turn will result in disqualification; failing to signal before making a U-turn will result in disqualification; if the U-turn obstructs the normal passage of other vehicles or pedestrians, 10 points will be deducted. Below are the precautions for making a U-turn in Subject 3: 1. Note 1: During the Subject 3 test, a U-turn must be performed in first gear. Apply the brake to slow down, and when the speed is sufficiently reduced, press the clutch to shift to a lower gear. 2. Note 2: When the vehicle is traveling in the middle lane, a U-turn must be made at the upcoming intersection, which requires changing lanes. To avoid obstructing left-turning vehicles, the U-turn should be made from the leftmost lane.

What is the method for shifting gears in a motor vehicle?

The method for shifting gears in a motor vehicle is as follows: when shifting, keep your five fingers together, lightly grasp the gear knob, and use your forearm to guide your hand in shifting. When shifting up, use the lower part of your palm to engage the gear, and when shifting down, use the four fingers of your right hand (excluding the thumb) to disengage the gear. Apply gentle and slow force when shifting, avoiding excessive force to prevent jumping to another gear. Precautions for shifting gears: When shifting, first press the clutch pedal all the way down before touching the gear lever. First disengage the gear and return to neutral, then move to the desired gear position. Pause briefly in front of the corresponding gear position before applying slight force to engage the gear. When accelerating and shifting, use the "double-clutch method." For upshifting, follow the principle of "press (clutch), shift (neutral), press (clutch), shift (higher gear)," quickly pressing the clutch pedal twice. When decelerating and shifting, release the accelerator, lightly press the brake, and monitor the speedometer. When the speed reaches the lower gear range, maintain light pressure on the brake, press the clutch, and shift gears. After shifting, simultaneously release the clutch and brake. Additionally, when shifting, pay attention to timing—correct, smooth, and agile operation is essential. Avoid rushing the process. During driving, unless under special circumstances, do not skip gears when upshifting.

Within how many meters should a roadside parking be completed?

After the examiner issues the instruction to park by the roadside, the parking should be completed within 80 meters. When temporarily parking on the right side, the driver must not leave the vehicle immediately and should quickly drive away if obstructing traffic. Parking is not allowed at intersections, railway crossings, curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, or within 20 meters of these locations. Additionally, parking is prohibited in sections with pedestrian guardrails (hedges), crosswalks, construction areas, or opposite obstacles. The steps for roadside parking are as follows: Upon hearing the instruction to "park by the roadside," first determine the parking position, then turn on the right turn signal and steer the wheel 90 degrees to the right. When the middle of the front of the car aligns with the roadside, quickly turn the steering wheel more than 180 degrees to the left. When one-third of the front of the car aligns with the roadside, straighten the steering wheel. If the car deviates, always keep one-third of the front aligned with the roadside and make slight adjustments. When the car body is parallel to the roadside, park at a distance of 10 to 30 centimeters from the roadside.

How to Turn Off the Continuously Flashing Turn Signals?

There is a turn signal switch located below the steering wheel. Pushing it downward activates the left turn signal, upward activates the right turn signal, and the middle position turns it off. More related information is as follows: 1. Turn signals are the most critical devices representing a car's dynamic information: Installed at the front and rear of the vehicle, they are activated when the car turns, providing safety assurance. For safety, please use turn signals as required to allow others to anticipate the car's movement and make accurate judgments. 2. Types of turn signals: Turn signals use flashers to achieve light blinking, mainly categorized into resistance wire type, capacitor type, and electronic type. 3. Added 'one-touch three-flash' quick function: With the development of automobiles, many cars now have a 'one-touch three-flash' quick function added to their hazard light switches.
