According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the Subject 4 test consists of 50 questions, primarily presented in the form of case studies, images, and animations. The test is scored out of 100, with a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the theoretical test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 test was divided into two parts: the road test and the safety and common sense test, commonly referred to as Subject 4. It is not a separate subject but is called Subject 4 because it is conducted after Subject 3. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety and civilized driving common sense test is conducted after Subject 3. There is no limit to the number of attempts for the Subject 4 test. If you fail the first attempt on the same day, you can retake it immediately. If you still fail, you need to reschedule the test, and no additional fees are required for retakes. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete the test within the validity period, the results of any previously passed subjects will become invalid. Subject 4 Test Notes: Test Duration: The test lasts 30 minutes. If you make mistakes totaling 12 points (6 questions) during the test, the session will be terminated. Number of Questions: Depending on the type of driving license being tested, 50 questions are randomly selected from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank. For car licenses, questions are drawn from a pool of 800, while for large vehicle licenses, they are drawn from 1,023 questions. Each question is worth 2 points. Question Types: The test includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions. The first 45 questions are single-choice, and the last 5 are multiple-choice. The test also includes animation questions, image questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retake Notes: If you fail Subject 4, you only need to retake Subject 4. The driving school will schedule the retake, and there is no limit to the number of retakes. No additional fees are required for Subject 4 retakes. Subject 4 Test Tips: Strengthen weak areas and identify the reasons for mistakes. For marked questions, do not just memorize the correct answers. Refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference materials to understand the reasons for errors and internalize them. Categorize and summarize questions. Refer to the question bank analysis for classification and identify similar questions. Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so they should be analyzed and grouped. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian attention are very similar and easily confused. Grouping them during study can help avoid mistakes. Find memorization techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarizing these numbers can make them easier to remember. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 3 is divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skill test. Subject 3 refers to the road driving skill and safety and civilized driving common sense test.

Is the owner required for changing the color on the vehicle license?

Changing the color on the vehicle license requires the owner's identification documents. Preparation work: 1. Prepare required materials: The procedure for color change requires few materials - the vehicle license, the owner's ID card, and the vehicle registration certificate (green book). If a friend is handling it as an agent, the agent's ID card must also be brought. 2. Keep the car body clean: Since the vehicle license will be changed, photos and appearance checks will be conducted before processing, similar to the appearance inspection during vehicle testing. Therefore, keeping the car body clean is important, and it is recommended to wash the car in advance. 3. Clear traffic violations in advance: Similar to regular annual inspections, vehicle information and traffic violation records will be verified. Thus, clearing any violations beforehand is essential and should not be forgotten. Application steps: 1. Appearance inspection: The process is the same as for annual inspections, including stamping, taking photos. Any modifications to the appearance that fail the inspection must be restored to the original factory condition beforehand. 2. Fill out the application form: The service hall has a color change application form. After completing it, submit it to the processing window for review and to receive a new vehicle license. 3. Issuance and fee payment: Normally, the new vehicle license can be processed successfully in about half an hour, with only a small fee for the production cost required. Once paid, the entire procedure is completed.

What Causes Weak Airflow in a Car's Air Conditioning System?

Weak airflow in a car's air conditioning system can be attributed to the following reasons: Incorrect Airflow Direction Setting: If the air conditioning is set to blow towards the windshield or side windows, the airflow into the cabin may feel significantly weaker. Blower Motor Malfunction: Short circuits or reduced power in the blower motor can naturally decrease the air volume delivered by the car's air conditioning. If the issue lies with the blower motor, it is advisable for car owners to seek professional assistance from a 4S store or a specialized repair shop rather than attempting DIY repairs. Dirty Cabin Air Filter: A heavily soiled air filter can obstruct the airflow. The cabin air filter is designed to remove impurities from the air entering the cabin. Excessive accumulation of these impurities can impede the airflow from the vents.

Why Is There Abnormal Noise from the Rear Drum Brakes?

Abnormal noise from the rear drum brakes is caused by either the brake shoe friction lining being worn out or uneven tension between the left and right brake shoes. Concept of Drum Brakes: Drum brakes utilize stationary brake shoes inside the brake drum to create friction against the rotating drum, thereby reducing the wheel's speed. When the brake pedal is pressed, the force applied by the foot pushes the piston in the master cylinder, which in turn pressurizes the brake fluid in the hydraulic lines. This pressure is transmitted to the wheel cylinders at each wheel, where the pistons push the brake shoes outward, causing them to rub against the inner surface of the brake drum. This friction generates sufficient resistance to slow down the wheel, achieving the braking effect. Causes and Solutions for Abnormal Noise: 1. Oil or grease contamination between the brake shoes and the drum can cause slipping and produce a sharp noise. Solution: Clean the brake drum and shoes with alcohol to remove the contamination. 2. If the surface of the brake shoes is too smooth, it can also lead to slipping and sharp noise. Solution: Use 800-grit sandpaper to roughen the surface of the brake shoes to increase friction.

Is it allowed to change lanes to the right?

Changing lanes to the right is not allowed, as it violates the prohibition of crossing solid line markings. Below are some techniques for changing lanes to the right: Check the distance on both sides: Keep your car within the two white lines and avoid crossing them. If you are not changing lanes, you generally don't need to check the rearview mirror and can drive normally without worrying about vehicles overtaking from behind. Additionally, look farther ahead and not just in front of your car. Turn on the turn signal before changing lanes: When changing lanes, activate the turn signal in advance. The turn signal is crucial as it informs the vehicles behind that you intend to turn, prompting them to slow down naturally. Check the rearview mirror promptly: After turning on the turn signal, immediately check the rearview mirror and then gradually change lanes in the desired direction. When changing lanes to the right, focus on the right-side rearview mirror. At the same time, check for any pedestrians or vehicles ahead to ensure a safe lane change.
