If the test cannot be conducted due to weather conditions, there's no need to worry too much as it's not the fault of the examinee—it's an act of force majeure affecting the test site. The local vehicle management office should have dedicated personnel responsible for rescheduling the test. It is recommended to consult your local vehicle management office.

Don't panic if your Subject 3 test gets canceled due to weather. The system will automatically void your current appointment without counting it as an attempt. I've seen many similar cases at test centers - the key is to immediately report it to your driving school. They'll help you obtain the official "Weather-Related Test Cancellation Certificate." When rescheduling on the 12123 APP, prioritize slots within 7 days to maintain your driving feel. Heavy rain is the most common cancellation reason - imagine water droplets completely obscuring rearview mirrors and road markings, making forced testing actually dangerous. Use the waiting time to practice maintaining safe following distances in rain, as examiners highly value such safety awareness.

What to Do If You Run a Red Light Due to Malfunctioning Traffic Signal?

Running a red light due to a malfunctioning traffic signal is not considered a violation. If the red light violation was indeed caused by objective reasons such as traffic signal failure, you can file an appeal for reconsideration. Criteria for determining a red light violation: Electronic monitoring captures three photos as evidence for determining a red light violation: the front wheels crossing the stop line, the rear wheels crossing the stop line, and the front wheels crossing the opposite stop line. Only when all three photos are available will it be considered a red light violation. How to avoid running a red light while driving: When there are arrow signals, follow the arrow lights; otherwise, follow the circular lights; When the red light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line; When the yellow light is on, the front of the vehicle must not cross the stop line; When the green light just starts flashing, if you are close and moving fast, you should proceed, as braking might not stop you in time and you could cross the stop line; if you are far away, moving slowly, or the intersection is congested, you should stop; When driving in the city, develop the habit of looking for traffic lights whenever you see a crosswalk or stop line at an intersection.

How many days of practice are needed for Subject 3?

This depends on individual circumstances. However, the time allocated for practice is usually limited. Some driving schools first schedule the exam appointment and only allow practice after the appointment is confirmed. In such cases, the practice time for Subject 3 is generally only three to four days. The reason for this is the high demand for exam appointments, and driving schools can only arrange practice sessions after the appointment is confirmed, reflecting the impact of resource constraints. Below is a detailed introduction to the content of the Subject 3 exam: 1. Road driving skills test: This usually includes: vehicle preparation, light simulation test, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears, changing lanes, parking by the roadside, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. 2. Safe and civilized driving knowledge test: This covers safe driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge in adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.

Where is the reverse radar control unit usually located?

Reverse radar control unit is located at the rear bumper of the vehicle. Below are detailed introductions about reverse radar: 1. Definition: The reverse radar is a safety assistance device for parking or reversing, which informs the driver about surrounding obstacles through sound or more intuitive display, eliminating the troubles caused by the driver's need to look around when parking, reversing, or starting the vehicle, and helping the driver overcome blind spots and unclear vision. 2. Principle: When reversing, the reverse radar uses ultrasonic waves emitted by sensors installed on the rear bumper to hit obstacles and reflect back, calculating the actual distance between the vehicle and the obstacle, then alerting the driver. 3. Components: The reverse radar mainly consists of ultrasonic sensors, a controller, and a display or buzzer.

Does a Broken Timing Belt Require a Major Overhaul?

A broken timing belt does require a major overhaul. If the timing belt breaks while driving, it can cause the engine's valves to collide, necessitating a major engine repair. A broken timing belt disrupts the normal operation of the valves and ignition system. The pistons continue to move up and down due to inertia, while the opening and closing of the valves stop. In the confined space of the combustion chamber, the pistons are likely to collide with the valves, bending the valve pushrods, denting the piston tops, and even punching holes in the cylinder head. Additional Information: 1. A broken timing belt can cause severe damage to the engine's internal valves, posing significant risks. 2. To prevent timing belt failure, manufacturers strictly recommend replacing the timing belt and its accessories within specified intervals. Depending on the engine's design, the timing belt should typically be replaced when the vehicle has traveled between 60,000 to 100,000 kilometers.
