There are many situations that can lead to failure, common ones include: not following the examiner's instructions; inability to correctly use lights, wipers, and other common vehicle controls; driving with both hands off the steering wheel simultaneously; inability to reasonably choose driving lanes and speeds according to traffic conditions; prolonged mismatch between gear usage and vehicle speed, causing the engine to run at excessively high or low RPMs. Below is related information: 1. Subject Three: Subject Three, which includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviated term for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's exam. 2. Notes: There are two exam attempts, and if both attempts are unsuccessful, the exam must be rescheduled.

I've been driving for many years, and there are actually quite a few scenarios that lead to failing the Category 3 driving test. The most common ones are starting the car without fastening the seatbelt or adjusting the rearview mirrors properly—examiners will immediately fail you if they see that. Changing lanes without checking the blind spot or forcing your way in without signaling are also major no-nos; hitting an obstacle or pedestrian nearby will definitely result in failure. Speed control is crucial too: going too fast (speeding), too slow (blocking traffic), or tailgating and causing sudden braking all count as dangerous driving. Parking over the sidewalk or curb, especially failing to align properly in parallel parking, will lead to point deductions without hesitation from the examiner. Add stalling the engine to the mix—more than three times, and the test is over. Practicing more on public roads, familiarizing yourself with traffic signals and yielding at crosswalks, can help avoid these mistakes effectively.

What is the wading depth of the Land Rover Discovery 4?

The maximum wading depth of the Land Rover Discovery 4 is 700mm. The wading depth of the Land Rover Discovery 4 is determined by the height of the vehicle's chassis, which is the ground clearance listed in the model's parameter configuration table. Generally, the greater the ground clearance, the higher the chassis, and the higher the safety factor when passing through waterlogged roads. Therefore, in terms of safe wading depth, the advantages of off-road vehicles and SUVs are obvious. However, for most compact and small vehicles with low chassis, the position of the vehicle's air intake should be used as a benchmark when passing through waterlogged roads. If the air intake of the Land Rover Discovery 4 is below the water level during wading, water will be sucked into the engine's cylinders. Since water cannot be compressed like air, it will cause severe damage to the engine's mechanical components (such as connecting rods, pistons, crankshafts, etc.). Therefore, the wading depth should not exceed the height of the engine's air intake. The height of the engine's air intake, and thus the maximum wading depth, can also be increased by installing a snorkel. If wading is unavoidable, the following safe and correct operations should be performed: Before wading, always turn off the auto start-stop function to prevent the vehicle from automatically restarting after stalling in water, which could cause severe engine damage due to water intake. Assess the underwater road conditions based on the passage of preceding vehicles and choose an appropriate entry point. Observe the path taken by other vehicles and follow their tracks at low speed, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration. On roads prone to water accumulation, observe warning water level markers, trees, and other reference points like the wheels and doors of other vehicles to estimate the water depth before deciding whether to proceed. Be aware of your vehicle's safe wading depth. If the water depth exceeds half the height of the tires or the engine's air intake, do not proceed recklessly; consider alternative routes instead.

What does 'mode' mean on a car air conditioner?

The 'mode' on a car air conditioner translates to 'mode' or 'direction'. It is located in the air conditioning control area on the center console and is used to switch between different air outlet modes of the car air conditioner, typically cycling through modes such as foot-level air, face-level air, and windshield defrost. The car air conditioning system is a device that cools, heats, ventilates, and purifies the air inside the cabin. It provides a comfortable environment for passengers, reduces driver fatigue, and enhances driving safety. When the 'mode' button appears on the multifunction steering wheel, it serves as a button to control the switching of car multimedia, allowing users to toggle between modes such as FM radio, AM radio, CD, or USB drive.

What is the installation method for the rear camera of a dash cam?

The installation method for the rear camera of a dash cam is: 1. The wiring inside the car is the same for both - route the power cable along the gap between the windshield and the roof liner, between the passenger side body panel and the roof liner, and between the rear seats and the roof liner, tucking it along the edges; 2. For the rear installation, one method is to mount the rear camera at the top center of the rear windshield, while the other involves routing the cable through the trunk, along the trunk edge, and then mounting it on the license plate light cover, adjusting the angle as needed. A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and related information during vehicle operation. After installation, it can record the entire driving process in video and audio, providing evidence for traffic accidents.
