Sweeping the line refers to the vehicle body crossing the line. In the Subject 2 driving test, if the vehicle body crosses the line, 100 points will be deducted, resulting in a failed test. In addition to the vehicle body crossing the line, other actions that will deduct 100 points include failing to park properly in reverse, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, and exceeding the allotted time. The Subject 2 test is scored out of 100 points, with criteria for failing, deducting 20 points, 10 points, or 5 points. The test is considered passed under the following conditions: ① For applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, or large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. If a candidate fails the Subject 2 test, they are allowed one retake on the spot. If they choose not to retake or fail the retake, the test is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving test permit, candidates can schedule the Subject 2 and Subject 3 road tests no more than five times. If the fifth attempt is still unsuccessful, any previously passed subjects will be invalidated.

What to Do If Your Car Gets Scratched in a Parking Lot?

If it is a commercial parking lot, whether underground or open-air, the responsible unit of the parking lot should bear the corresponding damage compensation. Here is relevant information about what to do if your car gets scratched in a parking lot: 1. Commercial parking lot scratches: Negotiate with the parking lot. For commercial parking lots, whether underground or open-air, as long as they charge a fee, they should take responsibility for vehicle care. There is no reason to charge without taking responsibility. If your car is scratched and the perpetrator cannot be found, in principle, the responsible unit of the parking lot needs to bear the corresponding compensation for the vehicle damage. 2. Residential parking lot scratches: Negotiate with the property management. Unlike commercial parking lots, the parking fees collected by residential property management are not necessarily vehicle storage fees but more like space rental fees. Therefore, it is important to clarify whether the residential area has signed a parking service management contract with the property management. If there is such a contract, according to the law, the property management is required to provide corresponding services as stipulated in the contract. Therefore, if a resident's car gets scratched or property is damaged, the property management needs to compensate. 3. Free parking lot scratches: Contact your insurance company. Free parking lots do not take responsibility for any vehicle damage. In such cases, you should promptly report the incident to your insurance company. If the perpetrator cannot be found, the insurance company generally has a 30% deductible rate. This means the insurance company will only cover 70% of the assessed damage amount, and the remaining 30% will be borne by the car owner.

Does the Coach Car Belong to the Instructor or the Driving School?

Whether the coach car belongs to the instructor or the driving school depends on the business model of the driving school. In directly operated driving schools, the vehicles are purchased by the driving school. For affiliated or franchised driving schools, some vehicles are bought by instructors and registered under the driving school's name, while others are purchased by the driving school and leased to instructors. Below is an introduction to the driving test subjects: 1. Subject 1: Also known as the theoretical test, it is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. 2. Subject 2: Also known as the small road test, it includes five test items: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving along a curve. 3.

How to Charge a Car Battery?

When a car battery is dead, you can use the jump-start method to charge it. Here are the relevant details about charging a car battery: 1. Method: Connect the dead battery to another car's battery. After transferring power, you can start the engine, and then rely on the internal alternator to charge the battery while the engine is running. 2. Precautions: If the car battery is dead, it should be charged promptly. At home, you can use a battery charger to charge the battery. Typically, the battery capacity of a household car is around 60Ah, and the required charging current is one-tenth of the battery capacity, which is 6A. Charging at this current usually takes about 3-5 hours to fully charge the battery. If using a lower current, it may take around 10 hours to fully charge.

What to Do When a Screw Punctures the Tire?

Here are the steps to handle a screw puncturing the tire: 1. Pull over: Don't panic when encountering this situation. After feeling the car run over a screw, pull over immediately, turn on the hazard lights, and place a safety warning sign behind the car. 2. Check the tire: Do not remove the screw by yourself, as car tires are generally tubeless, and punctures may not cause immediate air leakage, allowing you to drive to a repair shop. However, if you pull it out yourself, the tire will deflate instantly, requiring you to either replace it with a spare tire or contact a 4S shop for repair. First, check whether the tire is leaking air after the puncture. Spray some soapy water on the punctured area to see if bubbles form. If bubbles appear, it indicates air leakage; otherwise, there is no leakage. (1) No air leakage after puncture: Even if there is no air leakage upon inspection, it doesn't mean no action is needed. There might still be minor leakage, and the car can be driven, but at a very slow speed to avoid a blowout on the highway. Drive slowly to the nearest repair shop. (2) Air leakage after puncture: Air leakage can be divided into two scenarios. One is slow leakage after the puncture, in which case you must drive very carefully to avoid high speeds and find a nearby repair shop. If you're on a highway, do not drive and seek roadside assistance instead. If the leakage is severe, do not continue driving, as it could damage the vehicle and cause a traffic accident. Wait for assistance on the spot.

The car air conditioner is working but no cold air comes out. What's the matter?

1. The following are the reasons and solutions for the car air conditioner working but no cold air coming out: 1. Lack of refrigerant: The car's compressor lacks refrigerant and needs to be refilled. 2. Circuit failure: The car's refrigeration system has a circuit failure, and the circuit needs to be checked. 3. Refrigerant leakage: The compressor has a refrigerant leak, and the leak point needs to be checked and repaired. 4. Refrigeration pipeline blockage: The refrigeration pipeline is blocked and needs to be cleaned. 2. The following are the functions of the car air conditioner: 1. Temperature adjustment: This is the main function of the car air conditioner. In summer, the cold air generated by the refrigeration system cools the interior of the car; in winter, except for large commercial vehicles that use independent combustion heaters for heating, other vehicles basically use the car's residual heat for heating. 2. Humidity adjustment: Humidity has a great impact on the comfort of the occupants in the car. The humidity in the car should generally be maintained at 30%-70%. Ordinary car air conditioners do not have the function of adjusting the humidity in the car, and only through the use of ventilation devices or high-end luxury cars equipped with integrated heating and cooling air conditioners can this be achieved. 3. Airflow adjustment: The speed and direction of airflow have a great impact on human comfort. If the air blows directly, when the temperature is suitable, the speed should be limited to a certain range. The speed can be appropriately changed according to the passenger's living environment, age, health status, and habits of cold and heat. 4. Air purification: The quality of the air in the car is an important guarantee of comfort.

What to Do When the Car Won't Start?

The failure to start might be due to the car's steering wheel being in a locked state. Here are some related explanations about the failure to start: 1. The steering wheel is locked: When parking, if the steering wheel is not straightened, it can easily become locked, making it impossible to turn the key and start the car. In this case, simply straighten the steering wheel to start the car. 2. Insufficient fuel: Drivers should regularly check the fuel level in the tank. When the fuel level approaches the warning position, it's necessary to refuel promptly. 3. The car battery is dead: The car battery is also a consumable item and is recommended to be replaced every 2-3 years. If the car won't start due to a dead battery, a jump-start method can be used. First, position the two cars' front ends facing each other (the two cars should be as close as possible). Then, turn off the rescue car's engine to prevent excessive current from burning out the battery cables.
