What is the difference between Lexus ES200 and ES300?

Which One is the Clutch and Which One is the Brake in a Car?

The brake and clutch pedals in a car are located at the foot area. The clutch is on the left, the brake is in the middle, and the accelerator is on the right. The clutch is a disengagement device between the car's engine and the transmission, allowing gear shifts by separating and engaging. Only manual transmission cars have a clutch. The brake is a mechanical braking device that slows down the car, also known as a decelerator. Pressing the brake pedal activates the brake lever, which transmits pressure to the brake pads on the brake drum, clamping the brake disc to slow or stop the car. The accelerator is a device on the internal combustion engine that controls fuel supply. The car engine's accelerator is usually controlled by a pedal, also called the throttle pedal, which regulates fuel supply to the engine. The clutch ensures smooth starting and gear shifting, while the brake slows down or stops the moving car, ensuring stable parking on various road conditions (including slopes) and maintaining steady speed on downhill roads. The accelerator controls engine speed by adjusting the throttle opening, regulating air intake, and allowing the computer to control fuel injection. Correct pedal usage: The left foot controls the clutch pedal, while the right foot controls the accelerator and brake pedals. When shifting gears, press the clutch with the left foot. When not in use, the left foot should rest on the car's floor, not on the pedal. In emergencies, slam the brake to ensure the shortest stopping distance and prevent accidents. When overtaking, press the accelerator firmly, but avoid driving side by side with other vehicles. Generally, the clutch pedal is larger than the brake and accelerator pedals, while the accelerator pedal is the smallest among the three. Braking methods: Continuous braking: If there is an obstacle ahead, release the accelerator early and gently press the brake pedal multiple times while slowing down. This reduces the risks of sudden braking and improves ride comfort. Light-touch braking: This method is often used on rainy or muddy roads, gently tapping the brake pedal like a dragonfly skimming water. It reduces the chance of wheel lockup and loss of control. However, most modern cars with ABS do not require this technique. Note: During emergency braking, avoid steering sharply, especially in vehicles without ABS or EBD, as it may cause skidding or fishtailing, leading to severe consequences. Tips for new drivers: Use turn signals early when changing lanes or turning: Lights and horns are driving language—always communicate your intentions, especially as a beginner. Signal early to ensure safety. Avoid turning or changing lanes immediately after signaling; instead, activate the turn signal in advance to prevent accidents. Overtake cautiously and follow procedures: When overtaking, turn on the left signal in advance and use high/low beams or honk. On roads without a centerline or with only one lane in the same direction, the front vehicle should slow down and move right to give way if conditions permit. The overtaking vehicle should ensure sufficient safety distance, pass from the left, and return to the original lane after maintaining a safe gap, activating the right turn signal. Check surroundings before reversing: Before reversing, inspect the surroundings thoroughly. Do not rely solely on mirrors, parking sensors, or rearview cameras. If someone guides you, they should stand beside the car, not behind it, to avoid being hit. Slow down and observe at intersections: Intersections are complex with vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists from all directions. Always look around (while slowing down) regardless of traffic lights or right-of-way. Ensure no vehicles are rushing through before accelerating. Check for tailgaters before emergency braking: During sudden braking, monitor the following vehicle. Maintain a safe distance from the car ahead to avoid rear-end collisions. Keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead: Road conditions are unpredictable—the car in front may stop suddenly, or pedestrians may dart out. Control your speed and never exceed limits. Also, maintain a safe following distance to react in time. Some drivers change lanes without signaling; sufficient distance allows better response. Slow down and check surroundings when turning:

How Long Does It Take to Upgrade from C1 to B2?

It requires more than three years. Below are the conditions for upgrading from C1 to B2: Hold a small car C1 driver's license for more than 3 years, with no full-point records in the last three consecutive scoring cycles, aged between 20 and 50 years old, no record of causing a fatal traffic accident with equal or greater responsibility; no record of drunk driving; and the driver's license has not been revoked or canceled within the past ten years. C1 is a code for a type of driver's license. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), C1 refers to a driver's license that permits driving small and micro passenger vehicles, light and micro cargo vehicles, as well as light and micro special-purpose vehicles. It also allows driving vehicles under the C2, C3, and C4 license categories. The B2 driver's license permits driving heavy and medium-duty cargo vehicles or large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles. Heavy and medium-duty cargo vehicles are mostly trucks, such as the large dump trucks commonly seen on roads, which fall under the category of heavy-duty trucks. Large, heavy, and medium-duty special-purpose vehicles refer to vehicles equipped with specialized devices or equipment, such as water sprinklers, concrete mixers, fire trucks, etc. Article 14 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states that for first-time applicants of a motor vehicle driver's license, the permitted vehicle types include city buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. For those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to add additional permitted vehicle types, the additional types include large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo vehicles, three-wheeled cars, ordinary three-wheeled motorcycles, ordinary two-wheeled motorcycles, light motorcycles, wheeled self-propelled machinery, trolleybuses, and trams. Article 15 states that for those who already hold a motor vehicle driver's license and wish to add additional permitted vehicle types, they must not have a record of accumulating 12 points in the current scoring cycle and the most recent scoring cycle before the application. For those applying to add medium-sized passenger vehicles, tractors, or large passenger vehicles, the following additional conditions must be met: For adding medium-sized passenger vehicles, the applicant must have held a city bus, large truck, small car, small automatic transmission car, low-speed cargo vehicle, or three-wheeled car license for more than three years, with no record of accumulating 12 points in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. For adding tractors, the applicant must have held a medium-sized passenger vehicle or large truck license for more than three years, or a large passenger vehicle license for more than one year, with no record of accumulating 12 points in the last three consecutive scoring cycles before the application. For adding large passenger vehicles, the applicant must have held a city bus, medium-sized passenger vehicle, or large truck license for more than five years, or a tractor license for more than two years, with no record of accumulating 12 points in the last five consecutive scoring cycles before the application. Students currently enrolled in full-time driving vocational education who have obtained a small car license at school and have no record of accumulating 12 points in the current and most recent scoring cycle before the application may apply to add large passenger vehicles or tractors to their permitted vehicle types.

What does the auto start-stop function mean?

The auto start-stop function allows the vehicle's engine to automatically shut off under certain conditions, such as when waiting at a red light or during temporary stops. When the vehicle needs to continue moving, the driver can give a command by releasing the brake, pressing the accelerator, or turning the steering wheel, and the engine will quickly restart, allowing the vehicle to continue driving. If the vehicle is equipped with an auto start-stop function, it is recommended that the owner understands its characteristics before use. For example, when driving on a steep slope, it is advisable to avoid activating the auto start-stop function. Although the auto start-stop duration is very brief, the engine's start-stop on a slope may result in insufficient brake assistance for the vehicle.
