Where Can I Take the Racing Driver's License Test?

To obtain a racing driver's license, you need to undergo training, and the car owner must have more than two years of driving experience before participating in racing training. The following is an introduction to the racing driver's license: 1. The China Automobile Federation has reformed the racing driver's license training: it has designated three national training bases, namely Shanghai Volkswagen 333 Team, Beijing Automobile Federation Base, and Kunming Honghe Team. The training lasts for 3 days, and after passing the assessment, a temporary Class C license will be issued. 2. Upon passing the assessment, you can obtain a racing driver's license: the racing driver's license is divided into six levels, namely Class E, Class D, Class C, Class B, Class A, and Super Class (for F1 drivers). Only Class C and above can participate in international competitions, Class D can participate in domestic competitions, and Class E can only participate in provincial or municipal competitions or serve as a navigator in national rally races, but cannot participate in national-level competitions. As for the temporary Class C license issued after passing the training, you must participate in at least two national-level competitions within two years to convert it into a formal Class C license.

What does the sight distance on the dashboard mean?

Sight distance refers to the maximum distance at which the driver, from the normal driving position during regular vehicle operation, can continuously see a certain height obstacle on the road surface within the lane ahead or discern traffic facilities and road markings on the highway ahead. The following are details about sight distance: 1. Stopping Sight Distance: The shortest travel distance required for a vehicle moving at a certain speed, from the moment the driver spots an obstacle ahead until the vehicle comes to a safe stop before the obstacle. During stopping sight distance tests, the driver's eye height is set at 1.2m for passenger cars and 2.0m for heavy trucks, with the obstacle's top height on the road ahead at 0.10m. 2. Meeting Sight Distance: On the same lane with oncoming traffic, to avoid a head-on collision, this is the shortest distance required from the moment a vehicle detects an oncoming vehicle until both vehicles safely stop after the driver performs reasonable deceleration maneuvers, preventing a collision. Following common domestic and international practices, meeting sight distance is generally twice the stopping sight distance. 3. Overtaking Sight Distance: On roads where temporarily occupying the opposite lane is necessary to complete an overtake, this is the shortest distance from the moment the overtaking vehicle starts leaving its original lane until it can see the oncoming vehicle, complete the overtake, and safely return to its original lane. During overtaking sight distance tests, the driver's eye height is 1.2m for passenger cars and 2.0m for heavy trucks, with the obstacle's top height on the road ahead at 0.60m, equivalent to the headlight height of the oncoming vehicle (passenger car).

What to Do If It Rains After Car Glazing?

Do not go out in rainy weather. Remember not to wash the car with water within 8 hours after glazing, as the glaze layer has not fully cured during this period, and washing may remove the uncured glaze. Car glazing involves multiple processes that form a protective film on the car's paint surface, similar to the outer coating of pottery like "Tang Tri-Color," providing functions such as UV protection, oxidation resistance, and defense against high temperatures and acid rain. Here are some precautions: 1. Dust: Try to avoid washing the car after glazing, as the product is anti-static. If there is dust, simply wipe it off with a clean, soft cloth. 2. No Waxing: Wax layers may adhere to the glaze surface, and due to the isolation effect of the wax layer, it may affect the glazing results.

What are Headlights, Position Lights, and Tail Lights?

Headlights: Headlights are devices installed on both sides of the front of a vehicle, used to illuminate the road during nighttime driving. The lighting effect of headlights directly impacts nighttime driving operations and traffic safety. Therefore, traffic management authorities worldwide generally regulate the lighting standards of vehicle headlights by law to ensure safe nighttime driving. Additionally, headlights can be either two or four in number, with two being the most common configuration. When headlights are turned on, position lights are automatically activated by default. Position Lights: Position lights are the outermost lights at the front and rear of a vehicle. Large trucks also have position lights on their roofs and sides. Literally, 'position' means warning, and 'light' means outline, so position lights are designed to display the outline of the vehicle, serving as a warning to other vehicles. Position lights are typically installed along the edges of the vehicle's roof, indicating both the height and width of the vehicle. The symbol for position lights is two lights facing opposite directions. Tail Lights: Tail lights are essentially brake lights. When the light switch is turned to the first position, the small lights that illuminate at the front and rear are tail lights (also referred to as evening driving lights, used when it is not completely dark; the next setting after position lights is low beam, while high beam refers to the main headlights). Position lights and tail lights may seem similar, but they serve different purposes. Position lights are installed along the edges of the vehicle's front and are responsible for warning signals, alerting other vehicles to the width of the car. Tail lights, on the other hand, are installed at the rear of the vehicle and emit red light when illuminated. When the brakes are applied, the circuit connects, and the tail lights automatically emit red light. Since brake lights are crucial for vehicle safety, their brightness is significantly higher than that of tail lights—typically more than five times brighter.

Can the Air Conditioning Be Turned On When the Car Is Off?

You can turn on the air conditioning even when the car is off. Here are some additional details: 1. When the car is off, the air conditioning only blows natural air from the blower, as the air conditioning compressor is powered by the engine and stops working when the car is off. 2. The natural air blown by the blower is powered by the battery, and excessive use of the blower may drain the battery over time. 3. When the car is parked with the air conditioning on, the air exchange between the inside and outside is poor, which can lead to oxygen deprivation and health risks. The lack of proper air circulation in a stationary car, especially with the windows closed, can cause people to unknowingly fall asleep and suffer from oxygen deprivation or poisoning.

What are the differences between domestic cars, imported cars, and joint-venture cars?

Here are the differences between domestic cars, imported cars, and joint-venture cars: Different definitions: Domestic cars are designed and manufactured by Chinese people and have independent intellectual property rights. Imported cars are a general term, which can be divided into American-spec cars, Chinese-spec cars, Middle East versions, European versions, etc. Joint-venture cars are projects jointly established by Chinese and foreign investors. Different design concepts: Domestic cars are generally independently researched, developed, and designed by the country. Joint-venture cars adopt foreign design concepts and technologies but are manufactured by domestic workers. Imported cars are entirely researched, developed, and built abroad. Different materials: Domestic cars mainly use domestically produced materials, while joint-venture cars and imported cars mostly use materials produced abroad.
