Body sweeping the line means the vehicle body crosses the line, which results in a deduction of 100 points, leading to failure in the current test. Other actions that also result in a 100-point deduction include the vehicle body crossing the boundary, not entering the parking space, stopping midway, not following the designated route, not driving in the correct sequence, and exceeding the specified time limit. The two subjects have a total score of 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction. The rules for the second subject of the motor vehicle driver's license test state that any of the following actions will result in failure: stopping or rolling back during the test, not following the voice prompts, the wheels crossing the line, or the vehicle body crossing the line. Many learners encounter the issue of crossing the line during the second subject training, and the most common mistake leading to failure is "crossing the line." The main reason for wheels crossing the line is that learners fail to master the correct timing for steering. Apart from missing the right timing, another reason could be that the speed of steering does not match the vehicle's speed. Second Subject Deduction Criteria: Not wearing a seatbelt: 100-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: 100-point deduction. Not using the turn signal (including starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, and parking by the roadside); turning on the turn signal for less than three seconds (note that this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off the turn signal or using it incorrectly: 10-point deduction. Stalling once: 10-point deduction. Reverse Parking: Not following the designated route sequence: 100-point deduction. Vehicle body crossing the line: 100-point deduction. Not completing the reverse parking: 100-point deduction. Before reversing, if both front wheels do not pass the control line: 100-point deduction. Exceeding the 210-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Slope Parking and Starting: After the vehicle stops, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm forward or backward: 100-point deduction. After the vehicle stops, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm forward or backward: 10-point deduction. After the vehicle stops, if the starting time exceeds 30 seconds: 100-point deduction. Wheels touching the road edge line while driving: 100-point deduction. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: 100-point deduction. After the vehicle stops, if the body is more than 50 cm away from the road edge line: 100-point deduction. After parking, not tightening the parking brake: 10-point deduction each time. After the vehicle stops, if the body is more than 30 cm but less than 50 cm away from the road edge line: 10-point deduction each time. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: 5-point deduction each time. Parallel Parking: After the vehicle stops in the parking space, if the body crosses the line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when parking: 10-point deduction. Exceeding the 90-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Touching the parking space boundary line with the body while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Wheels touching the lane boundary line while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Right-Angle Turn: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when turning, or not turning off the turn signal after turning: 10-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Curve Driving: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 100-point deduction. Not driving in second gear or above: 5-point deduction.

Can I take the Subject 4 exam without my ID?

You cannot take the Subject 4 exam without your ID. Here are the specific requirements for the Subject 4 exam: Regulations: Items required for the Subject 4 exam include an ID card, student card, exam records, etc. Some locations may also require a photo for the driver's license. Typically, if the driving school schedules the Subject 4 exam on your behalf, you only need to bring your ID card. Before the driving school organizes a group trip to the vehicle management office for the exam, they will provide the student card and records to the student. Important Notes: It is essential to understand that the ID card, student card, and records are indispensable materials. Missing any one of these will prevent you from taking the Subject 4 exam. Some people schedule the Subject 4 exam online themselves, but due to restrictions on the driving school retrieving records from the vehicle management office, they may not receive the records and thus cannot take the exam. Therefore, if you plan to schedule the exam yourself, you should first communicate with the driving school to see if the records can be retrieved.

Do I need to take off my hat for Subject 2 of the driving test?

You do not need to take off your hat for Subject 2 of the driving test. Below are specific details about Subject 2: Definition: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviation for the field driving skills test. For small cars (C1/C2), the test items include five mandatory components: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-curves). Some regions also include a sixth item: high-speed toll collection. Regulations: Starting from June 1, 2021, the 'stopping and starting on a slope' item will be removed from the Subject 2 test for small automatic transmission vehicle driver's licenses.

What does ACC mean on a car?

ACC on a car stands for Adaptive Cruise Control, which is an intelligent automatic control system developed from the existing cruise control technology. During vehicle operation, the distance sensor (radar) installed at the front of the vehicle continuously scans the road ahead, while the wheel speed sensor collects speed signals. The adaptive cruise system only works when the vehicle speed exceeds 25 km/h, and when the speed drops below 25 km/h, manual control by the driver is required. Through system software upgrades, the adaptive cruise control system can achieve stop-and-go functionality to handle frequent stops and starts in urban driving conditions.

Is 235kpa tire pressure normal?

Tire pressure of 235kpa is normal, as the standard tire pressure range is between 230kpa and 250kpa. Driving with low tire pressure can cause severe tire wear and, in serious cases, may lead to a tire blowout. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tire, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches the tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass, the tire is more prone to punctures, which can lead to internal cracks and blowouts. Solutions for insufficient tire pressure: If no damage is visible, simply inflate the tire to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If a puncture is found during inspection, promptly drive to a tire shop for repair and then reinflate the tire; If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any visible holes, it may be due to a leaking wheel rim. It is recommended to inspect and replace the wheel rim if necessary.

What does it mean when the tire pressure light is flashing?

The reasons why the tire pressure light is flashing: The tire pressure monitoring light comes on due to a punctured tire. This situation usually involves a very slow air leak, which can be measured with a tire pressure gauge. Tire pressure is too high. Driving with low tire pressure for too long. This usually occurs when the pressure in one tire is too low, and high-speed driving increases the tire temperature, causing the pressure to rise. In this case, you need to stop and rest or replace the spare tire promptly. Abnormal tire pressure generally has the following 3 causes: Abnormal tire pressure: The system typically alerts when the pressure is below 1.8 bar or above 3.0 bar. At this point, tire inspection and pressure adjustment are required. Tire pressure monitoring system not reset: After inflating the tires, if the tire pressure monitoring system is not reset in time, it will still record the previous data, causing the tire pressure monitoring light to illuminate. Simply performing a tire pressure reset will resolve this issue. Damaged tire pressure sensor: The tire pressure sensor, which monitors tire pressure, is directly installed inside the tire and connected to the tire inflation valve. If the sensor is damaged due to impact while driving, the tire pressure warning light will also come on. For sensor damage issues, only a complete replacement with a new part is possible.
