The test items for the manual transmission driving test (Subject 3) include: light simulation, left and right turns, straight-line driving, gear shifting (upshifting and downshifting), driving with upshifts, meeting with motor vehicles, pedestrian crossings ahead, and school zones. When passing through intersections, it is essential to perform left and right observation actions, and always decelerate when turning. Then, pull over to park, and before getting out of the car, always check the left rearview mirror first. Below are the specific details regarding the driving distance in first gear for Subject 3: 1. Specific requirements for driving distance: During the driving test for Subject 3, the same driving session must not exceed 50 meters in first gear, 150 meters in second gear, and the cumulative distance in first and second gears must not exceed 200 meters. The distance is recalculated after the vehicle stops. Do not shift gears arbitrarily while driving. 2. Precautions for gear shifting in Subject 3: Do not look down at the gearshift; do not shift gears without fully depressing the clutch; do not keep the clutch depressed for a long time; do not skip gears when upshifting. In the moment you look down, you won't know what might happen ahead on the road, and even if you notice something, you may not be able to take timely action. Although this action seems minor, it can easily lead to traffic accidents.

What Size Socket is Used to Remove Spark Plugs?

Spark plugs require different socket sizes based on their diameter. Generally, passenger cars use a 16mm spark plug socket, while vans use a 21mm socket. Japanese cars are an exception, typically requiring a 14mm deep socket. These are reference values - the actual size should always be confirmed with the specific spark plug dimensions. What is a spark plug: A spark plug is a crucial component in gasoline engine ignition systems. It introduces high voltage electricity into the combustion chamber, creating a spark across the electrode gap to ignite the air-fuel mixture. Spark plug composition: Main components include the terminal nut, insulator, terminal stud, center electrode, ground electrode, and metal shell. Main types of spark plugs: Standard spark plugs, projected insulator spark plugs, electrode spark plugs, seat spark plugs, pole spark plugs, and surface gap spark plugs.

What Are the Types of Family Cars?

Family cars can be categorized into the following types: Micro Cars: Generally refers to models with a wheelbase below 2400mm, such as the Chery QQ3, Changan Benben, and Geely Panda. These cars typically have a wheelbase around 2340mm. Even smaller models like the SMART-FORTWO have a wheelbase of only 1867mm. Subcompact Cars: Usually refers to models with a wheelbase between 2400-2550mm, such as the Honda Fit, Toyota Vios, and Ford Fiesta. Compact Cars: Generally refers to models with a wheelbase between 2550-2700mm. This category represents the mainstream of family sedans, including models like the Volkswagen Sagitar, Toyota Corolla, Ford Focus, and Honda Civic. Midsize Cars: Typically refers to models with a wheelbase between 2700-2850mm. These cars are often used for both family and business purposes, such as the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Volkswagen Magotan, and Mazda6 Atenza.

Can a damaged transmission be claimed under auto damage insurance?

There are two scenarios regarding whether a damaged transmission can be claimed under auto damage insurance: first, if the transmission is damaged after a traffic accident, it can be repaired through an insurance claim; second, if the transmission is damaged during normal driving, it cannot be claimed under auto damage insurance. Precautions for transmission use: For manual transmissions, the clutch must be fully depressed before shifting gears up or down. For automatic transmissions, neutral gear (N) should not be used while driving, and switching between D, N, and R gears requires the vehicle to be stationary. After parking the vehicle, first engage the parking brake, then shift to P gear. Location of the transmission: The transmission is located in the vehicle's chassis, specifically behind the engine.

What is the difference between a street motorcycle and a sports motorcycle?

Street motorcycles and sports motorcycles differ in appearance and frame. Differences in appearance: Compared to sports motorcycles, street motorcycles are generally slimmer and more minimalist in design. Most street motorcycles feature single-cylinder engines, while sports motorcycles typically have multi-cylinder engines. Street motorcycles are usually not too heavy, focusing on riding comfort, ease of operation, flexible control, and high-end performance. They often highlight exposed metal components with minimal aerodynamic effects. Models such as cruiser-style bikes and streetfighters can all be classified as street motorcycles. In contrast, sports motorcycles prioritize high-speed performance above all else, sacrificing other elements. They feature extensive full-body fairings covering over 40% of the bike, aggressive riding positions, and lowered centers of gravity to facilitate cornering and combat turbulence and wind resistance at high speeds. Differences in frame: Sports motorcycles generally use aluminum alloy frames, while street motorcycles typically employ steel tube frames. The footpegs and seats on sports motorcycles are usually positioned much higher than those on street motorcycles, but the handlebars are lower. This design enhances visual appeal but makes riding more strenuous, unsuitable for long-distance travel, as prolonged riding can lead to back and waist pain.

What is the distance between the stakes in the motorcycle test?

For the two-wheeled motorcycle test, the distance between stakes is 3 meters, and the distance from the stakes to the sideline is 1 meter. The stake test is evaluated according to the following rules: Failure to follow the prescribed route or sequence, fail; touching or scraping the stakes, fail; vehicle body crossing the line, or two-wheeled motorcycle wheels crossing the line, fail; failing to complete reversing or moving into the designated area, fail; stopping midway or exceeding the prescribed time limit, fail. Number of attempts for the motorcycle test: Within the validity period of the learning driving permit, the number of scheduled attempts for the subject two (off-road driving) and subject three (road driving skills) tests must not exceed five. If the fifth attempt still results in failure, all previously passed test scores will be invalidated.

Do I have to pay out of pocket if my insured car hits someone?

If a car with insurance hits someone, the owner may not necessarily need to pay out of pocket. No payment required: If the compensation demanded by the other party falls within the coverage of the owner's third-party liability insurance and has been fully satisfied, then no out-of-pocket payment is needed. Payment required for excess amount: If the compensation demanded by the other party exceeds the total coverage of compulsory traffic insurance and commercial third-party liability insurance, the owner must pay the excess amount out of pocket. Automobile insurance: Also known as motor vehicle insurance or simply car insurance, it is a type of commercial insurance that covers liability for personal injury or property damage caused by natural disasters or accidents involving motor vehicles. Automobile insurance is a form of property insurance that has evolved and matured alongside the emergence and widespread use of automobiles.
