The following documents are required for applying for a Beijing entry permit: 1. Vehicle registration certificate. 2. Proof of compliance with environmental protection requirements. 3. Compulsory traffic insurance certificate. 4. Driver's license. 5. ID card or household registration booklet. 6. Valid annual inspection compliance label. Notes for applying for the Beijing entry permit: 1. During the application process, the vehicle's violation records and fine payment status will be checked. Applications will be denied if there are any unaddressed violations or unpaid fines. 2. Additionally, the environmental protection label has been abolished. There is a dedicated window at the application site for obtaining an environmental protection slip. Staff will conduct an on-site exhaust emission test for vehicles entering Beijing. Upon confirming that the emissions meet the standards, the vehicle owner can exchange the one-time emission compliance certificate for the Beijing entry permit.

I've driven into Beijing quite a few times, and there are several things you must prepare for the Beijing Entry Permit: ID card, driver's license, and vehicle registration certificate – these three are the basic essentials. You'll also need photos of your vehicle, usually front and side views showing clear license plates. Once I forgot to bring them and had to take temporary photos, which wasted time. The emission certificate is also crucial since Beijing has strict environmental policies – your vehicle must meet China VI standards to apply. I recommend using the 'Beijing Traffic Police' app to handle it online in advance by uploading scanned documents, saving you the hassle of queuing on-site. Last year, I got it done in just five minutes via the app. Make sure all materials are complete, otherwise you'll have to start over if rejected. After entering Beijing, pay attention to traffic restriction zones. I often drive on Chang'an Avenue, and having the permit gives me much more peace of mind. It's best to apply one week in advance – the permit is valid for seven days, so plan your trip wisely to avoid expiration.

Are there multiple-choice questions in the driving license theory test (Subject 1)?

The driving license theory test (Subject 1) includes multiple-choice questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions. There are 100 questions in total, with each question worth 1 point, making a total score of 100. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," if you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The test content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 test content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Special knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 test precautions: During the test, candidates should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in a locker before entering the examination room. Inside the examination room, the identity verification desk will assign a seat. Once seated, begin the test, ensuring the camera is properly aligned and adhering to test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, queue to collect your score report and sign it—unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail it again, the test session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 have only five attempts each. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test, the passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge. The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), there is no such thing as Subject 4.

What does it mean when the ESP system is activated?

ESP system activation refers to the computer's self-check. Below are specific details about the ESP system: 1. The Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is a type of traction control system. 2. Within seconds after startup, the computer performs a self-check, and all indicator lights, including the fault light, will illuminate. The self-check lasts only a few seconds before the lights turn off. If any light remains on, it is advisable to visit a 4S store for inspection. 3. The ESP system is essentially a traction control system. Unlike other traction control systems, ESP controls not only the drive wheels but also the non-drive wheels. For example, in rear-wheel-drive vehicles that often experience oversteer, where the rear wheels lose control and cause the car to fishtail, ESP will brake the outer front wheel to stabilize the vehicle. In cases of understeer, ESP will brake the inner rear wheel to correct the trajectory. 4. The ESP system is a crucial component in a vehicle, typically supporting the functions of ABS and ASR. It analyzes data from various sensors about the vehicle's driving state and issues corrective commands to ABS and ASR to help maintain dynamic balance. ESP ensures optimal stability under various conditions, particularly in situations of oversteer or understeer. The system generally requires the installation of steering sensors, wheel sensors, slip sensors, and lateral acceleration sensors. 5. In addition to utilizing the wheel speed sensors and hydraulic modulators from ABS and TCS, ESP also includes an integrated lateral acceleration sensor, yaw rate sensor, and steering angle sensor. These sensors are responsible for measuring the vehicle's rotational movement around its vertical axis and recording the driver's steering intentions. The wheel speed sensors measure the instantaneous speed of the wheels, while the steering angle sensor records the driver's steering input. The yaw rate sensor and lateral acceleration sensor measure the vehicle's rotational movement around its vertical axis and centrifugal forces.

How to Install a Car Belt?

Remove the plastic protective cover under the engine. This facilitates the removal of the main fixed upper bracket on the timing belt side of the engine and loosening the bolts on both sides. Begin loosening the bolts of the main fixed bracket. After removing the protective cover, the timing gears and the brown toothed timing belt are exposed. Turn the engine manually to ensure the marks on both gears align with the scale marks on the engine.

What is the phenomenon of a sedan driving on the road?

Cars driving on the road belong to the phenomenon of rotation. The following are precautions for driving on the road: 1. Maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front: Develop the habit of keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in front. If you encounter a car on the adjacent lane suddenly changing lanes without signaling, you will have sufficient distance to respond calmly. 2. Avoid driving at night: The biggest trouble brought by darkness is visual impairment, so try to avoid driving at night. 3. Other precautions: Turn signals must be used when turning or changing lanes, and always check the rearview mirror before slowing down or turning.
