When temporarily parking a vehicle in rainy weather, the hazard warning lights (double flashers) should be turned on. Here are the specific details: 1. Hazard Warning Lights: The official term for double flashers is hazard warning lights, which are generally used when the vehicle has a malfunction, is in danger, or needs to temporarily park on a main road. According to regulations, motor vehicles should only turn on hazard warning lights when driving in foggy conditions. 2. Regulations: The "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulate: Article 58 When motor vehicles are driving at night without streetlights, with poor lighting, or in low visibility conditions such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, they should turn on the headlights, position lights, and rear lights, but when driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction, high beams should not be used. Motor vehicles driving in foggy conditions should turn on fog lights and hazard warning lights.

Where is the door hinge located?

Car door hinges are installed on the side doors at the front and rear of the vehicle. Below are the hazards of not maintaining door hinges: 1. Door won't close: The connection method between the car door and the body is actually similar to that between a house door and the wall, divided into two types: swing doors and sliding doors. The most common type on vehicles is the swing door, which is mounted to the body via hinges. The opening and closing actions are similar to those of a house door. If not properly installed, it can result in the door not closing properly. 2. Unsmooth operation: If you encounter difficulties when opening the door (feeling heavy) or closing the door (hard to pull), it's usually due to loss of lubricating grease. Dry metal friction can make the operation very rough, leading to damage in door switching mechanisms.

How is the order of candidates arranged for the Subject 3 driving test?

Some test centers arrange the exam order based on registration ranking, while others do not, following the principle of first-come, first-registered, first-tested. Therefore, there are no strict regulations on this ranking order, but being excessively late or absent will be treated as a failure. It is best to first clarify with the local vehicle management office or driving school, and then bring your ID card to the designated test center within the scheduled exam time to take the test. Below is additional information: 1. Retake: If you are a few minutes late, a lenient examiner may still allow you to continue the test. If you are significantly late and can provide corresponding proof, you can apply for the next batch of exams or a retake. There are a total of 5 exam attempts for Subject 3. If you fail the 5th attempt, the results of previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you will need to start over from Subject 1. 2. Subject 3 test distance: For small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed trucks, and small automatic transmission cars for disabled passengers, the test distance must be no less than 3 kilometers, with no less than 20% selected for night tests. If a night test is not conducted, a simulated nighttime light usage test should be performed.

When the air conditioner is turned on in the car, can the trunk feel the airflow?

Here is some information about car air conditioning: 1. Car Air Conditioning: The car air conditioning system (air-conditioning-device), commonly referred to as car AC, is used to regulate and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness, and airflow inside the car cabin to an optimal state. It provides a comfortable environment for passengers, reduces travel fatigue, and creates favorable working conditions for the driver, playing a crucial role in ensuring safe driving. Generally, it includes cooling devices, heating devices, and ventilation systems. 2. AC Layout: Different types of air conditioning systems have varying layouts. Currently, integrated heating and cooling systems are widely used in passenger cars. The layout involves assembling components such as the evaporator, heater core, centrifugal blower, and control mechanisms into a single unit, known as the air conditioning assembly.
