Here are the mnemonics and tips for the Subject One test: True/False questions: In true/false questions, those containing "quickly," "emergency braking," or "sharp turn" are all wrong. Multiple-choice questions: In multiple-choice questions, those containing "slow down and yield," "stop and yield," "bear civil liability," "slow down and avoid," "stop and avoid," "hold the steering wheel with both hands," "use engine braking to slow down," or "shift to a lower gear" are all correct. Additionally, options with "ensure safety" are correct, while those with "does not belong to" are wrong. Expressway: The minimum speed on an expressway is 60 km/h, and the maximum does not exceed 120 km/h. If there are two lanes in the same direction, the speed range for the right lane is 60-100 km/h, and the left lane is 100-120 km/h. If there are three lanes in the same direction, the speed range for the far-right lane is 60-90 km/h, the middle lane is 90-110 km/h, and the far-left lane is 110-120 km/h. Overtaking must always be done from the left side.

When preparing for the written driving test, I often used number mnemonics, such as speed limits: 120 km/h maximum for cars on highways, 50 km/h on urban arterial roads, and 30 km/h in school zones. Plus, the catchy rhyme for traffic signs: 'Blue for guidance, yellow for warning, red for prohibition'—easy to remember and not boring. During study, I did lots of mock tests on mobile apps, completing several sets daily and reviewing mistakes repeatedly. Key points to remember clearly include alcohol limits—never exceed the standard, safety comes first. Also, keep a relaxed mindset; get a good night's sleep before the test and don’t stress. The whole preparation process made me realize there’s logic behind every rule, and after driving, I better understood the importance of safety.

As an experienced driver looking back, it's crucial to grasp the fundamental rules in Subject 1. Mnemonics like 'turn left towards the center, turn right towards the roadside' help remember turning positions. For techniques, don't just memorize questions—think about why these rules exist in real driving scenarios, such as yielding to pedestrians at crosswalks. Common pitfalls include accident handling procedures and highway entry/exit methods. Practice with real exam questions and keep simulated tests under 30 minutes. Stay calm—don't worry about passing on the first try; familiarity comes with practice. You'll find this knowledge truly practical when driving post-exam.

Focus on a few key mnemonics: For vehicle distance, 'stop within 200 meters in light rain, stop within 50 meters in heavy rain'. When yielding, 'yield to the right at triangular signs'. The learning technique is to tackle each module separately, such as traffic signals and safety knowledge, mastering each part before taking full practice tests. Download an exam app, take more mock exams, and familiarize yourself with the interface to reduce mistakes. Don’t stay up all night before the exam; ensure you get enough rest. With enough practice, the exam will naturally feel easier.

When helping my child prepare for the written driving test (Subject 1), I emphasized safety mnemonics like 'Don't drink and drive, don't drive after drinking,' and clearly explained the 0.08 BAC standard. Techniques included parental coaching: watching traffic rule animations together, using stories to remember signs (e.g., the no U-turn sign resembling a prohibition symbol). We practiced extensively with free question banks and reviewed frequently missed questions. I encouraged a positive mindset—viewing failure as experience if they didn’t pass. These rules are protective charms when driving, fostering safety habits from childhood.

I just passed the written driving test (Subject 1), relying on mnemonics like 'Stop at red, go at green, slow down at yellow light' and memorizing speed limit numbers. During preparation, I practiced daily with an average of 30 questions, screenshotting wrong answers for review. My strategy focused on high-frequency test points such as emergency procedures and intersection right-of-way rules. The mock exam app was extremely helpful for practicing real-scenario reactions. Before the exam, I took deep breaths to stay calm; passing boosted my driving confidence—all traffic rules ultimately serve to protect lives.

What are the effects of adding a small amount of gasoline to a diesel car?

If a diesel car has only added a small amount of gasoline, it can still be driven, but the power may decrease or the engine may experience shaking. Below is relevant information about engine oil: 1. Grade introduction: S indicates suitability for gasoline engines, with N being the highest grade for gasoline engine oil. C indicates suitability for diesel engines, with F being the highest grade for diesel engine oil. 2. Oil introduction: Engine oil, also known as engine lubricant (English name: Engine-oil), has a density of approximately 0.91×10³ (kg/m³). It serves to lubricate and reduce friction, assist in cooling, seal against leaks, prevent rust and corrosion, and provide shock absorption for the engine. It is hailed as the 'blood' of the car. Engine oil consists of two parts: base oil and additives. The base oil is the main component of lubricating oil, determining its basic properties, while additives can compensate for and improve the shortcomings of the base oil's performance, granting it certain new properties, making it an important component of lubricating oil.

What are the impacts of registering a motorcycle under a company name?

Only the right to use is granted, and tasks such as vehicle inspection and handling traffic violations must be processed through a third party, which can be quite troublesome. Below are the differences between company-registered and privately-registered vehicles: 1. Different payment responsibilities: For company-registered vehicles, the company should pay the purchase price. For privately-registered vehicles, the individual usually pays the purchase price. 2. Different property ownership: Company-registered vehicles should belong to the company's purchased assets. Privately-registered vehicles usually belong to the individual's purchased assets. 3. Different impacts on creditors: Vehicles registered under a company name are considered corporate assets, and creditors of the company's external debts can legally apply to preserve or execute these assets. Vehicles registered under a personal name are considered personal property, and generally, creditors of the company's debts cannot apply to preserve or execute these assets.
