How many times are lights used in Subject 2?

The usage scenarios of lights in Subject 2 vary depending on the vehicle type. For a C-class license, lights are used 4 times, while for a B-class license, lights are used 6 times. For C-class license: Starting: Similar to Subject 3, when starting in Subject 2, always remember to turn on the left turn signal at the end. Parallel parking: The parallel parking exercise requires using the turn signal once. After passing the test and preparing to exit, turn on the left turn signal. Slope parking and starting: After completing the slope parking, when preparing to start on the slope, turn on the left turn signal. Right-angle turn: When making a right-angle turn, the left turn signal must be used. For B-class license: Turn on the width light and high beam: Driving at night without streetlights or under poor lighting conditions. Driving in suburban areas at night without streetlights or under poor lighting conditions. Turn on the width light and low beam: Driving in urban areas at night without streetlights or under poor lighting conditions. Turn on the high beam: Switch the headlights to high beam. Turn on the low beam: Driving closely behind another vehicle at night. Meeting non-motorized vehicles on narrow roads or bridges at night. Meeting an oncoming vehicle at night when the distance is about 150 meters. Alternate between high and low beams twice: Passing sharp curves, slopes, arch bridges, pedestrian crossings, or intersections without traffic signals at night. Passing intersections without traffic signals at night. Turn on the headlights, front and rear fog lights, and hazard lights: Driving in foggy conditions. If you fail the Subject 2 test once, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the test will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Important notes for the Subject 2 test: The first thing after getting in the car is to adjust the seat and rearview mirror to a comfortable position and state, and always fasten the seat belt. During parallel parking, find the right angle quickly, turn the steering wheel rapidly, react promptly, and coordinate with the car's speed. For slope parking, remember to pull the handbrake, turn on the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and gently press the accelerator while releasing the clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turns, react quickly after finding the right point and coordinate with the car's speed to avoid deviation. The safest method for curve driving (S-curve) is to slow down and maintain good control. Practice regularly to develop a good sense of the car. During reverse parking, control the speed carefully, find the reference point accurately, and make minor adjustments when observing deviations in the rearview mirror.

Why Should You Avoid Flood-Damaged Cars?

Flood-damaged cars should be avoided because water has entered the vehicle compartment, submerging the chassis, floor, and even the engine. The damp interior is prone to mold growth and unpleasant odors, while wiring harnesses and electronic control units are susceptible to corrosion, leading to potential malfunctions later on. Untreated metal components inside the car are also prone to oxidation and corrosion. During repairs, absorbent materials like carpets are often not replaced but merely dried, sometimes leaving residual moisture that can't be completely removed. During hot summer months, this can cause strong musty odors in the car, which may be harmful to health. Water can penetrate wiring harnesses and the casings of onboard computers. Although all functions may appear normal after repairs, residual moisture in the circuits can accelerate oxidation and damage to wires and circuit boards. Some untreated metal components in the car will experience accelerated corrosion and oxidation due to remaining dampness after the vehicle is repaired.

How to Screw on a License Plate?

Steps for screwing on a license plate: 1. First, check if there are any foreign objects in the screw holes. After inspecting the screw holes, pre-assemble each set of screws in the following order from top to bottom: screw rod, anti-theft cap, and washer; 2. Align the reserved holes on the license plate with the screw holes on the car's license plate mounting position, then screw in the first set of screws. Note that they should not be tightened completely—just enough to hold the license plate in place; 3. Install the remaining sets of screws. Once all four screws for each license plate are in place and checked for issues, tighten them with a screwdriver; 4. Finally, secure the anti-theft caps to complete the installation. License plate installation must be standardized. All mounting holes should be equipped with sealing devices that meet the GA804 requirements, except when vehicle conditions prevent installation. When using a license plate frame for auxiliary installation, the inner edge of the frame must be more than 5mm away from the edge of the vehicle registration number characters, and it must not cover the production serial identifier.

How to Check the Production Date from the VIN?

The production date in the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is located in positions 10 to 17 (VIS), with the 10th digit indicating the production year of the vehicle. The VIN breakdown is as follows: 1. VIN positions 1 to 3: The 1st digit represents the country or region of production, while digits 2 to 3 indicate the manufacturer and vehicle type; 2. VIN positions 4 to 9: Digits 4 to 8 provide information about the vehicle's model, series, body type, and engine type, with the 9th digit serving as a check digit; 3. VIN positions 10 to 17: The 10th digit denotes the production year, the 11th digit is the assembly plant code, and digits 12 to 17 represent the production sequence number.

What does BRT dedicated lane mean?

BRT dedicated lane is a road specifically designated for BRT buses. BRT stands for Bus Rapid Transit system, hence BRT buses are also known as rapid transit buses. On the road, BRT buses have dedicated boarding and alighting platforms, and dedicated bus lanes are planned on traffic roads for BRT buses. Meaning of BRT: BRT is a new type of public passenger transport system between rapid rail transit and conventional buses, a medium-capacity transportation mode, often referred to as "subway on the ground." BRT is rapid transit with dedicated bus platforms, so there are special rapid transit lanes on traffic roads for BRT use. Consequences of occupying BRT lanes: As a high-quality, high-efficiency, low-energy-consumption, low-pollution, and low-cost form of public transportation, the opening of the BRT system is mainly aimed at alleviating road traffic pressure. Generally, there are no-entry signs when entering BRT dedicated lanes. If motor vehicles enter these lanes, they will face penalties from traffic police.

What Causes Excessive Engine Noise When Accelerating?

The causes of excessive engine noise when accelerating are as follows: 1. Excessive engine oil can increase the instantaneous working resistance of the engine, raising the crankshaft's rotational resistance and reducing the engine's output power. Additionally, excess oil may enter the combustion chamber and participate in combustion, leading to oil burning, blue smoke emission, and increased fuel consumption. 2. Incorrect engine oil type, such as switching from fully synthetic oil to mineral oil, can damage the engine. 3. Engine overheating, which causes power loss and abnormal noises. 4. Internal engine issues, such as valve clogging or similar problems.
