The passing score for the driver's license Subject 1 exam is 90 points. The test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," if a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical exam or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The exam content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should pay attention to their attire, no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned seat and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect and sign your score report; unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 have only five exam attempts each, and rescheduling must be done at least ten days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the exam on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

As a professional who frequently mentors beginners, I recall that the Subject 1 test is a mandatory step in passing the theoretical exam. The test typically consists of 100 questions, all of which are single-choice, with a full score of 100. To pass, you need to score at least 90. If you don't meet this threshold, you'll have to re-register. Subject 1 covers knowledge such as traffic regulations, signal signs, and safety basics, aiming to build a solid theoretical foundation for on-road driving. For preparation, I recommend practicing frequently with test bank apps, like 'Driving Test Treasure,' which can simulate the actual exam. It's best to complete one set of questions daily within 45 minutes to get accustomed to the pace, reducing nervousness during the real test. From personal experience, valuing this score can minimize future practical mistakes—after all, passing with a high score means you've mastered key rules, ensuring safer driving. Remember, don’t overlook mock tests; they help you confidently surpass the 90-mark in the actual exam.

As a learner often around driving school instructors, I don't find Subject 1 that difficult, but the passing score requirement is quite strict. You need to score at least 90 out of 100 to pass, with the test typically consisting of 100 questions. It mainly tests traffic rules and basic driving knowledge, such as traffic light signs, speed limit zones, etc. When preparing, don't just rely on reading—make sure to practice with actual questions. Online exercises or apps are highly recommended. In the days leading up to the test, take more mock exams, manage your time well, and leave some room for review. The high passing threshold really demands focus, as making too many careless mistakes can easily lead to failure. When I helped a friend prepare, I noticed that confusing similar signs was a common pitfall, so keeping an error log proved extremely useful. After hitting that 90, the sense of achievement really motivates you to keep practicing driving.

As an experienced driver and enthusiastic community educator, I often remind beginners to pay attention to the threshold of Subject 1. The passing score is set at 90 points out of a total of 100, usually consisting of around 100 questions. The content is entirely theoretical, covering basics like road safety. Why this standard? Because it ensures you truly understand the rules, thereby reducing traffic risks. Don't slack off during preparation; take time to study a little every day and test yourself with apps. Don't forget to review frequently missed questions. Scoring below 90 means retaking the test, which can be time-consuming and laborious. One thing to emphasize: passing with a high score means you've laid a solid foundation for safety.

Initially, the engines were imported from Japan, the transmissions were made in Thailand, and the chassis frames were stamped and welded at the Nanjing production line. However, after gradually mastering the core technologies and being able to stably produce qualified products, all current batches of Changan Mazda models are domestically produced, except for the CX-3, which is imported. FAW Mazda, headquartered in Changchun, Jilin, does not have production lines for the three major components in China, so the three major components are all imported, with only the frame attachments and similar parts being domestically produced.

Why does the automatic transmission shift with a jerk?

Automatic transmission shifting with a jerk may be caused by: clutch pressure leakage in the transmission; blockage or poor flow in the transmission oil circuit; insufficient transmission oil level; or damaged solenoid valves. The engine's power is transmitted through the transmission, which is also a key factor affecting fuel consumption. Generally, an automatic transmission consumes over 10% more fuel than a manual transmission. Whether manual or automatic, more gears mean better fuel efficiency. Here is additional information: Jerky shifting in automatic transmission cars: Damaged solenoid valves. If sludge in the transmission oil circulates and blocks the oil passages in the valve body, it can cause jerky shifting. Over time, this can lead to a series of transmission issues such as overheating, jerking, slippage, etc.

What are some attractive headlines for the Buick LaCrosse?

Attractive headlines for the Buick LaCrosse include: Headline 1: We can't change the noise, but we can create tranquility. Headline 2: Stay quiet when others are noisy, speak up when everyone is silent. Headline 3: We can't change the unknown, but we can create composure. Relevant information is introduced as follows: The LaCrosse is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine with impressive data, with a maximum power of 187kW/5300rpm and torque of 350Nm/2000-5000rpm, both ranking at the leading position among engines in the same class. Thanks to the adoption of a direct-injection engine, the new LaCrosse can still output good torque even at lower RPMs, and the acceleration feels very direct, fully showcasing the advantages of turbocharged models. However, possibly due to the relatively large size of the vehicle, the acceleration of this car does not burst instantly like Volkswagen models, but the power output appears very linear. The initial acceleration gives a feeling similar to a 3.0L naturally aspirated model, and the smooth acceleration does not affect ride comfort at all.
