Trailer towing requires an A2 driver's license. The A2 license permits the operation of tractor vehicles capable of towing heavy and medium-duty full trailers and semi-trailers. Additionally, vehicles that can be driven with an A2 license include: B1 (medium-sized buses), B2 (large trucks), C1 (small cars), C2 (small automatic transmission cars), C3 (low-speed trucks), C4 (three-wheeled vehicles), and M (wheeled self-propelled machinery). According to the regulations on the application and use of motor vehicle driving licenses, in China, a legally valid A2 license allows the driver to operate full trailers and semi-trailers. A full trailer is defined as one where the total weight of the trailer is borne by itself, while a semi-trailer is one where part of the total weight is borne by the tractor vehicle.

Can a temporary ID card be used for the Subject 2 driving test?

A temporary ID card can be used, as temporary resident identity cards have legal validity in proving a citizen's identity. Below are precautions for the Subject 2 test: 1. Pay attention to attire and mindset before the test. Remember key points when reversing into the garage, avoiding unnecessary left and right turns. 2. For parallel parking, ensure the rear wheels pass the edge line of the parking space, adjust the distance properly, remember to use turn signals and honk the horn. For right-angle turns, identify the turning point accurately before steering sharply. 3. During curve driving, make wide turns after entering the curve and maintain steady speed. None of these maneuvers should cross the lines. After completion, drive the vehicle back to the starting position without stalling, and wait for signature confirmation.

Does a Faulty Canister Purge Valve Increase Fuel Consumption?

A faulty canister purge valve significantly increases fuel consumption. Here are the relevant details: 1. The canister uses activated carbon's adsorption and filtration principle to collect fuel vapors. When the vehicle starts, the canister purge valve opens, releasing the adsorbed fuel vapors into the intake manifold for re-combustion. 2. If the canister purge valve is faulty (leaking), fuel vapors escape into the cylinders before the engine is started, leading to an overly rich air-fuel mixture. This can cause "flooding," resulting in difficulty starting or weak ignition, which consumes a lot of fuel. 3. Additionally, the overly rich mixture leads to incomplete combustion. The engine ECU detects this and adjusts by leaning out the fuel mixture in the next cycle. However, an overly lean mixture also struggles to burn completely, further increasing fuel consumption.

Which years do National IV vehicles belong to?

The National IV emission standard began in 2010 and lasted until 2018 when the National V standard was implemented. Therefore, vehicles produced between 2010 and 2017 generally comply with the National IV standard. Here is more information about the National IV standard: 1. The National IV standard requires emissions of various pollutants to be approximately 50% lower than those of the National III standard. 2. The National Fourth Stage Motor Vehicle Pollutant Emission Standard, abbreviated as "National IV Emission Standard" or National IV Standard, primarily targets vehicle emission pollutants such as HC, NOx, CO, and PM. Through the application of technologies like the active layer of catalytic converters, secondary air injection, and exhaust gas recirculation systems with cooling devices, it controls and reduces vehicle emission pollutants to levels below specified limits.

Is Replacing a Car Radiator Considered a Major Repair?

If the car's radiator frame is detachable, then replacing the radiator is not considered a major repair; if the radiator frame is integrated with the car's body frame, then replacing the radiator is considered a major repair. Below is relevant information about replacing a car radiator: 1. Cars use water-cooled engines, which rely on coolant circulating continuously to dissipate heat. Water-cooled engines have a radiator at the front of the car, which is fixed to the radiator frame. 2. The radiator frames of most cars are detachable, while some cars have radiator frames integrated with the body frame. If the radiator frame is integrated with the body frame, replacing the radiator frame would classify the car as a salvage vehicle. 3. For cars where the radiator frame is integrated with the body, replacing the radiator frame requires cutting off the old frame and welding a new one in place, which damages the body frame. If the radiator frame is connected to the body frame with screws, replacing it will have no impact on the car.

What Maintenance Does a New Car Need?

New car maintenance includes the following items: 1. Replace engine oil, oil filter, fuel filter, and air filter. 2. Check whether the level of the car coolant is in the normal position. 3. Check whether the oil level of the power steering fluid reservoir meets the requirements, and inspect whether there is any oil leakage at the interfaces of the system oil pipes. 4. Check the battery fluid level and the level of the windshield washer fluid reservoir. 5. Inspect the tension and aging condition of the belts for the generator, air conditioner, water pump, and power steering pump. 6. Check whether the front and rear light assemblies of the car are working properly. 7. Inspect the tire pressure and wear condition of the car tires, tighten the tire bolts to the specified torque, replenish the tire pressure to the specified value for the model, and perform tire rotation based on the wear condition.

What is the correct way to affix temporary license plates?

Temporary license plates should be affixed in the following two ways: 1. If there is only one temporary license plate, it should be placed in the lower left or right corner of the front windshield, ensuring it does not obstruct the driver's view. 2. If there are two temporary license plates, one should be affixed to the front windshield, and the other should be placed in the lower left corner of the rear windshield inside the vehicle. If there is no space on the rear windshield, the second temporary license plate should be carried in the vehicle. Below is additional information about temporary license plates: 1. There are two types of temporary license plates: one has a sky-blue background with black characters and black borders, which is only valid for driving within the city (local temporary license plate); the other has a brown-yellow background with black characters and black borders, which allows for driving across cities (non-local temporary license plate). 2. Before the official license plate is issued, only the temporary license plate should be used. Once the official license plate has been issued, even if the temporary license plate is still within its validity period, it cannot be used further. If discovered by traffic police, corresponding penalties will be imposed.
