Does the New Emgrand have an anti-collision beam?

New Emgrand has an anti-collision beam. Here is the relevant introduction about the Emgrand's anti-collision beam: 1. The role of the front bumper anti-collision beam: to protect the fenders, radiator, engine hood, and headlights. The front bumper's anti-collision beam can distribute the energy generated by any form of offset or frontal collision as evenly as possible to two energy-absorbing brackets, allowing the energy to be absorbed by the energy-absorbing brackets to the greatest extent, and the collision force can be evenly transmitted to other energy-absorbing components. 2. The role of the rear bumper anti-collision beam: to reduce damage to the trunk, tailgate, taillight assembly, and other components in the event of an accident.

How to Take the Driving Test (Subject 3) in a Different Location?

To take the Subject 3 driving test in a different location, the student only needs to bring their ID card and photos to the local vehicle management office in the city where they registered for the test to fill out the required forms. There may be an additional fee for taking the test in a different location, but this should be confirmed with the local vehicle management office. Below are some additional tips for the Subject 3 test: 1. Light Simulation: During the light operation, the student should hold the steering wheel at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions with both hands and use other fingers to switch between high and low beams. If one hand needs to leave the wheel to operate the lights, the other hand must still hold the steering wheel. If both hands leave the wheel, even briefly, the test will result in an immediate failure. 2. Lane Change: When changing lanes, turn on the turn signal and wait for 3 seconds before turning the steering wheel. If the driver is on a single-lane road, lane changes are not permitted. 3. Straight-Line Driving: To drive straight, keep your vision focused far ahead. Once straight-line driving begins, avoid turning the steering wheel randomly and do not cross the solid lane lines. Due to the high usage rate of training vehicles, they tend to drift during straight-line driving. Therefore, keep your vision far ahead and make slight adjustments to the steering wheel if you feel the car drifting.

How to Fold Down the Rear Seats in a Golf?

Golf rear seats can be folded down. The rear seat backrests are split-type, allowing each backrest to be folded forward separately to expand the trunk capacity, making it convenient for storing larger items. To fold the rear seat backrests forward, use the separation button, then flip the backrests back. Specific instructions are as follows: 1. Fully press down the headrest: Pull the separation button forward while folding the backrest forward. After releasing the rear seat backrest, the red mark on the button should be visible. 2. Flip the rear seat backrest back: Return the rear seat backrest to its original position by pushing it backward firmly until you hear a locking sound. Once the backrest is locked, the red mark on the separation button should no longer be visible. Check if the rear seat backrest is locked. If not locked, the rear seat safety belt may not function properly.

How often should a new motorcycle undergo annual inspection?

New motorcycles are exempt from inspection for the first six years, with no need for testing or fees. However, every two years, owners must complete an online review via the Traffic Management 12123 platform or visit a nearby traffic police station for verification, primarily to confirm the annual purchase of insurance. After six years, motorcycles must undergo an inspection every two years. Motorcycle inspection includes: 1. Basic setup: Check whether the engine, chassis, body, and auxiliary equipment are clean, complete, and functional, whether the paint is uniform and aesthetically pleasing, whether major assemblies have been replaced, and whether they match the initial inspection records. 2. Safe operation: Verify whether the vehicle's braking, steering, lights, exhaust, and other safety features comply with the "Technical Requirements for Safe Operation of Motor Vehicles." 3. Vehicle modifications: Check whether the vehicle has been modified, altered, or reconstructed, whether the driving license, license plate, and vehicle registration records match the actual condition, and whether any changes have undergone approval and modification procedures. 4. License plate condition: Inspect the license plate, driving license, and enlarged license plate markings on the vehicle for damage, alterations, or unclear handwriting, and determine if replacement is necessary.

Should the Levin turn on auto lights or position lights during the day?

The automatic headlight function of motor vehicles will not activate the position lights during the day. When the vehicle passes through a tunnel, the position lights and low beams will automatically turn on, and the lights will turn off after exiting the tunnel. The automatic headlight function is very convenient to use, operating through a light sensor. Relevant information about vehicle lights is as follows: 1. Introduction: Vehicle lights refer to the lamps on the vehicle, serving as tools for road illumination during nighttime driving and as signaling devices for various vehicle movements. 2. Reverse lights: Reverse lights automatically turn on when the driver shifts into reverse gear. They are white and transparent, primarily serving to alert vehicles behind that the car is reversing.
