The following are the sixteen tips related to the B2 Subject 2 driving test: 1. Hill start and stop: After hearing the voice prompt for "hill start and stop," drive the vehicle to the designated spot on the slope and stop. After stopping, the distance between the right front and rear wheels of the vehicle and the road edge line (white line) should not exceed 30 cm, and the vehicle should not press against the road edge line (white line). The frontmost part of the vehicle should be within the yellow line on the road. After 3 seconds, you can start and continue the test until the computer voice prompt "ding-dong" indicates the successful completion of this test item. Key points and tips: Rolling backward after starting and stalling during startup are the most common issues in this item, mainly due to the driver's lack of proficiency in coordinating the clutch, parking brake, and accelerator pedal. 2. Parallel parking: Drive the vehicle in front of the parking space. After hearing the voice prompt "parallel parking," begin the parallel parking test. After reversing into the parking space and stopping, wait for about 5 seconds until the voice prompt "ding-dong" signals the start of the next test item. Key points and tips: Stalling during forward or reverse movement and pressing against the line are the most common issues in this item. 3. Bumpy road driving: Drive the vehicle in a low gear. After hearing the voice prompt "ding-dong, bumpy road driving," the bumpy road test item begins. The voice prompt "ding-dong" indicates the end of this item and the start of the next one. Key points and tips: This item tests the driver's ability to coordinate the brake, clutch, and gear to ensure smooth deceleration and acceleration of the vehicle.

When I was practicing for the driving test's Subject 2, I spent quite some time on it, and I believe the most important thing is memorizing the reference points. These points are visual markers on the car, such as the position of the rear bumper and the corner of the parking space when reversing into a bay. By aligning these with the side mirrors and turning the steering wheel correctly, you can avoid crossing the lines. Speed control should be steady, and don’t release the clutch too quickly during semi-engagement, especially when starting on a slope, as stalling is common—practice more to get the feel. Simulate real test scenarios during training, familiarize yourself with the sequence of each task, and memorize the reference points for parallel parking and right-angle turns. Stay relaxed mentally, treat it like a regular practice session, and don’t panic over minor mistakes—just keep going. Seat adjustment is crucial, as height affects the accuracy of your reference points. Don’t forget to adjust the mirrors and fasten your seatbelt, and use turn signals in advance for extra points. In short, practice makes perfect—just half an hour of daily practice for a week will get you comfortable.

How Deep Can Water Submerge an Engine?

Generally, as long as the water depth does not exceed half of the tire height, drivers can proceed with confidence without worrying about water reaching the engine. Additional Information: 1. The intake pipe is the primary water-sensitive component of a car: The engine's intake pipe is particularly vulnerable to water, which can cause the engine to stall or even become irreparably damaged. 2. Exhaust pipe ground clearance: For standard sedans, the exhaust pipe is typically 20 to 30 cm above the ground, while for SUVs, it ranges from 30 to 40 cm. 3. Tips for driving through water: (1) Follow the lead vehicle: Observe how preceding vehicles navigate the water. If a similar vehicle successfully passes, your car is likely to do the same. If no vehicles are ahead, the driver must assess the water depth carefully before proceeding. (2) Assess water conditions: Areas with waves or whirlpools often indicate large rocks or obstacles, while calm surfaces usually signify deeper water. Uniform, small ripples typically indicate a smoother roadbed below—choose such paths for crossing. (3) Determine water depth: If water rises above the exhaust pipe level, there's a risk of stalling and water ingress. Typically, when water depth stays below half the wheel height, you can cautiously drive through at low speed.

Is Antifreeze the Same as Coolant?

Coolant and antifreeze are not the same thing. The full name of coolant is antifreeze coolant, which is a coolant with antifreeze functionality. As the name suggests, it has two main functions: first, antifreeze, and second, cooling. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding in cold winter conditions, which could otherwise crack the radiator and damage the engine cylinder head. Below is an introduction to coolant: 1. Definition of coolant: The full name should be antifreeze coolant, meaning it is a coolant with antifreeze properties. Antifreeze prevents the coolant from freezing and expanding during cold weather parking, which could crack the radiator and damage the engine cylinder block. However, it is important to correct a misconception: antifreeze is not just for winter use; it should be used year-round. 2. Composition of coolant: It consists of three parts: water, antifreeze agent, and additives. Based on the antifreeze agent used, it can be classified into alcohol-based, glycerol-based, ethylene glycol-based, and other types of coolant. Alcohol-based coolant uses ethanol (commonly known as alcohol) as the antifreeze agent. It is inexpensive, has good fluidity, and is simple to prepare, but due to its low boiling point and tendency to evaporate, it is gradually being phased out.

Can the Subject 4 Test Be Taken in a Different Location?

For individuals applying for C1, C2, or C5 driver's licenses, the Subject 4 test can be taken in a different location. Since June 2019, the Ministry of Public Security has implemented a policy allowing the Subject 4 test to be taken in a different location under the 'National Unified Examination' framework. If you initially enrolled in a driving school in your hometown and have passed some tests but need to change your residence due to work, study, or other personal reasons, you can apply to change the test location. More information about the driver's license test is as follows: 1. To apply for taking Subject 4 in a different location, simply bring your ID card to the local vehicle management office at your current residence to complete the test location change procedure. There is no need to return to the original test location or submit additional documents such as a residence permit or temporary residence permit. 2. You only have one opportunity to change the test location. After the change, all remaining tests and the license issuance must be completed in the new city. The scores of the tests you have already passed remain valid, and you can schedule the remaining tests at your current residence. Once all tests are passed, you can receive your driver's license in the city of your current residence.
