The first step to get a driver's license is to undergo a medical examination. The medical examination items for obtaining a driver's license include: 1. Age: 18-70 years old. 2. Height: For large buses, tractors, city buses, large trucks, and trolleybuses, the height requirement is above 155 cm. 3. Vision: The naked or corrected vision of both eyes must reach 4.9 or above on the logarithmic visual acuity chart. 4. Color discrimination: No red-green color blindness. 5. Hearing: Able to distinguish the direction of sound with each ear at a distance of 50 cm from a tuning fork. 6. Upper limbs: Both thumbs must be intact, and each hand must have at least three other fingers intact, with normal limb and finger movement functions. 7.

When I first started learning to drive, the first step was to go straight to the driving school to register. I brought my ID card and photos, filled out the forms on-site, and then had to undergo a physical exam, checking basic items like vision, color recognition, and hearing. If you fail the physical exam, everything else is pointless, so myopic friends should remember to wear their glasses. After that, the driving school provided study materials for Subject 1. I spent two to three hours daily practicing on the app’s question bank, focusing on memorizing traffic signs and penalty rules. About a week after registration, you can schedule the Subject 1 test, but it’s advisable not to rush—wait until you consistently score above 95 on the practice tests before taking it. Only after passing can you officially start practical training. The whole process requires good time management; make time to study on weekdays and avoid procrastination.

The first step in getting a driver's license is to ensure you meet the requirements. You must be at least 18 years old to apply for a C-class license, and those over 70 need to pass three additional ability tests. When choosing a driving school, I visited three for comparison, focusing on the size of the training ground and the reputation of the instructors—don't just go for the cheapest option. For registration, bring your original ID card and a 1-inch white-background photo; if you're taking the test in a different location, you'll also need a residence permit. The driving school usually arranges the medical check-up at a designated hospital, which includes a color vision test—those with red-green color blindness will definitely fail. The medical report is valid for three months, so it's advisable to start studying for the written test (Subject 1) as soon as possible, using both mobile apps and printed materials.

What is the function of an automotive power distribution box?

The function of an automotive power distribution box is to facilitate assembly and troubleshooting during repairs. The automotive power distribution box is essentially the car's fuse box, which is located in different positions depending on the vehicle. Different electrical loads such as ignition circuits, headlights, parking lights, horns, and air conditioning use fuses of different colors and specifications for distinction. The reasons for blown fuses in the automotive power distribution box include: 1. Installation of higher-wattage car bulbs; 2. Addition of a multi-way adapter to the car's cigarette lighter socket, leading to simultaneous use of multiple auxiliary devices; 3. Excessive installation of electrical equipment, with poorly insulated wiring causing oxidation at the connections; 4. Direct rinsing of the engine compartment with tap water causing short circuits; 5. Aging wire insulation and exposed metal wires leading to short circuits; 6. Incorrectly connecting a high-power dual-cylinder electric air pump to the cigarette lighter socket for use.

Which lane to take at the highway entrance?

At the highway entrance, take the right lane and turn on the left turn signal. Direction indicator signs are set up on ordinary roads connected to highway ramps to guide vehicles entering the highway; in addition to entrance distance warning signs, there are also entrance direction warning signs, entrance warning signs, direction warning signs, and main intersection signs. Entrance distance warning signs are placed 1km and 500m away from the highway intersection; some may also have axle weight restriction signs, placed 200m away from the highway intersection; entrance direction warning signs are set up at the highway intersection; entrance warning signs are placed near the starting point of the highway acceleration lane. The ramp is part of the highway. Driving in the wrong direction or making a U-turn on the highway, according to the "Road Traffic Safety Law Implementation Regulations" and related regulations, will result in a 12-point penalty. Stopping, making U-turns, reversing, or driving in the wrong direction on the highway can lead to unimaginable consequences in the event of an accident. Therefore, driving in the wrong direction on the highway is prohibited, and failure to comply will result in corresponding penalties.

Is it allowed to exceed the speed limit on highways?

Exceeding the speed limit on highways is not allowed. According to traffic laws, vehicles exceeding the speed limit by less than 10% will not be penalized; exceeding by 10% to less than 20% will result in a fine and 3 penalty points; exceeding by 20% to less than 30% will result in a fine and 6 penalty points, etc. Speed limits vary for different sections of the highway, with the maximum speed limit being 120 kilometers per hour. Additionally, drivers must adhere to the speed limit signs posted on the actual road. In adverse weather conditions such as snow, ice, rain, or fog, where the road surface is slippery and visibility is poor, drivers should reduce their speed, increase the following distance, avoid unnecessary lane changes, and drive with caution. If feeling slightly fatigued, they should immediately proceed to the nearest service area or exit the highway to rest. Night driving poses additional challenges due to poor visibility, requiring heightened concentration. In low-temperature or snowy conditions, drivers should reduce speed to guard against black ice, maintain a safe following distance of at least 100 meters from other vehicles, continuously monitor the road ahead, and make timely and correct judgments.

Can Motorcycles Ride on Highways?

Motorcycles are allowed on highways, but not all cities permit motorcycles to travel on highways. It depends on local regulations. If the local area does not allow motorcycles on highways, motorcycles are not permitted to force their way onto the highway. Once such behavior occurs, the motorcycle will be blacklisted. When riding on highways, the maximum speed for motorcycles cannot exceed 80km/h, and the minimum speed cannot be lower than 60km/h. Within this speed range, there is only a fluctuation of 20km/h, making it easy to exceed the speed limit or fall below the minimum speed requirement if not careful. Driving a motorcycle requires complete documentation and full equipment. To ride a motorcycle on the highway, you must carry your driver's license, vehicle registration, helmet, etc. Additionally, passengers are not allowed on the back seat of the motorcycle. Riding on the highway without even the most basic helmet is extremely dangerous. Therefore, full gear is essential when riding on highways. Moreover, always prioritize safety when riding on highways—avoid the fast lane, stick to the rightmost lane, and refrain from reckless overtaking.

What is the minimum speed limit on highways?

Highways have a minimum speed limit of 60 km/h. Different lanes on highways have varying speed limits: for two lanes in the same direction, the left lane has a minimum speed of 100 km/h while the right lane maintains 60 km/h; for three lanes in the same direction, the far-left lane requires a minimum of 110 km/h, the middle lane 90 km/h, and the far-right lane 60 km/h. Notably, driving below 60 km/h will result in a 3-point penalty. Contrary to popular belief, driving too slowly on highways isn't necessarily safer. When multiple vehicles travel at low speeds, overall traffic flow slows down. Therefore, establishing minimum speed limits helps minimize speed differentials between vehicles, encouraging consistent speeds among consecutive cars. This reduces unnecessary lane changes and overtaking, ultimately decreasing accident risks. The minimum speed regulation ensures smooth and safe highway operations. Drivers must strictly adhere to lane discipline on highways. Expressways are divided into bidirectional configurations with 4, 6, or 8 lanes. Motorists must maintain their designated lanes without crossing dividing lines or making unauthorized lane changes, and should never straddle lane markings.
