The reason for failing to climb halfway during Subject 2 slope test is insufficient power caused by improper clutch release during startup. Below are relevant information about Subject 2: Basic introduction: It is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment, officially known as the field driving skill test, with a full score of 100 points. It sets evaluation standards for disqualification, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction items. Passing requires meeting the specified criteria; Test content: For small cars, special small automatic transmission vehicles for the disabled, and low-speed trucks, the test includes reverse parking, slope fixed-point parking and starting, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turning. For small automatic transmission vehicles, the test includes reverse parking, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turning.

I also encountered the issue of stalling on a slope during driving school practice. Later, the instructor taught me a few tricks: it's mainly due to unstable clutch control. When starting on a slope, slowly release the clutch to the semi-engagement point, and when you feel the front of the car slightly vibrating, then release the handbrake. The throttle must also keep up; for older model training cars, you need to press it to at least 2000 RPM, otherwise, there won't be enough power. Also, make sure the steering wheel is straight, or the resistance will be greater. Remember last month, Xiao Wang rolled back three times because he was looking too close and the direction was off. Finally, don't get nervous; panicking leads to releasing the foot brake too quickly, causing the car to stall.

Our female trainees often stall the car during hill starts. The instructor said there are usually three reasons: not pressing the accelerator deep enough for sufficient power, releasing the clutch too quickly causing the car to shake, or not fully releasing the handbrake. During last week's mock test, my car shook violently halfway up, and I realized my seat was too far forward, making it hard to use my legs effectively. Sometimes, having the AC on too high in the training car can also make it struggle, especially in summer when climbing a hill at full blast. It's recommended to adjust the direction half a meter in advance to align with the arrow, as having the car straight makes it much easier.

Does a car in its sixth year need to go through the inspection line?

Does a car in its sixth year need to go through the inspection line? The answer is yes. Here are the relevant details about annual inspection: 1. New cars exempt from inspection for the first 6 years: New cars do not require on-site inspection within the first 6 years, and owners can directly collect the inspection compliance label. However, for cars older than 6 years (including the sixth year), an annual inspection is required, which involves taking the car for testing. 2. Annual inspection label: Currently, electronic annual inspection labels have been implemented nationwide. Vehicle owners can check, download, and use electronic inspection labels through the "Traffic Management 12123" APP. For vehicles that have already obtained the electronic inspection label certificate, there is no need to apply for it at the vehicle management office or traffic police station.

How to Determine When the Throttle Body Needs Cleaning?

When experiencing sluggish acceleration, increased engine noise, severe cases may exhibit unstable idling and engine vibration, these are indicators that the throttle body may need cleaning. Below is more information about the throttle body: 1. Precautions for throttle body maintenance: (1) Avoid using highly corrosive cleaning agents. (2) Develop proper driving habits and refrain from using low-quality gasoline. 2. Definition of throttle body: The throttle body is a controllable valve that regulates air intake into the engine. After entering the intake manifold, the air mixes with gasoline to form a combustible mixture, which then ignites to generate power. Positioned between the air filter and the engine block, it is often referred to as the throat of the automobile engine.

How to Prevent Theft of External Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors?

External sensors have relatively weaker anti-theft properties, but there are now anti-theft nuts available that require specialized wrenches for installation and removal. Specific details are as follows: 1. Disadvantages of external types: External Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) with sensors outside the valve stem are more vulnerable. They cannot accurately assess the internal conditions of the tire and have not undergone factory testing. The externally mounted sensors on the valve stem can be easily damaged by human or physical interference. Sensors attached externally to the valve stem are even more hazardous. Since they can only detect the tire pressure and temperature inside the valve stem, a Tire-Review feature report in the U.S. referred to them as 'adult toys.' Additionally, they are susceptible to damage from human or physical interference at any time. 2. Principle of external types: External tire pressure monitoring sensors are screwed onto the valve stem to monitor tire pressure by blocking the valve pin. Moreover, if the owner's tires have not been dynamically balanced, prolonged use can lead to air leakage. Driving for extended periods with unbalanced tires results in increased tire wear, higher fuel consumption, and greater damage to the vehicle, making their use potentially dangerous.

Should You Release the Handbrake or Shift Gears First When Starting an Automatic Car?

When starting an automatic car, you should shift gears first and then release the handbrake. Below is relevant information about automatic transmission vehicles: 1. Working Principle: Automatic transmissions primarily rely on the hydraulic transmission principle of torque converters to complete gear shifts; the vehicle automatically selects the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions, making gear shifts safer. 2. Advantages of Automatic Transmissions: Automatic transmissions use a torque converter to replace the clutch in manual transmission cars, so there's no need for frequent gear shifting. In terms of operational convenience, automatic transmissions are more suitable for beginners.
