The time limit for the driver's license starts counting from the moment you pass the subject one exam and receive the learning driving certificate. The motor vehicle driver's exam is generally divided into four parts: 1. Subject one exam: This subject mainly tests knowledge of the most basic traffic rules, including road traffic safety laws and regulations, traffic signals, and traffic rules. 2. Subject two exam: This subject mainly tests basic driving skills such as reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, curve driving, and turning at a right angle. 3. Subject three exam: This is the formal on-road test, which examines skills such as using lights, starting, using turn signals, shifting gears, and pulling over. 4. Subject four exam: This is usually taken after passing the road test and focuses on safe and civilized driving requirements, safe driving knowledge under complex conditions, and emergency situations.

Back when I just got my driver's license, the instructor explained in detail how the exam time limit is calculated. He said that the entire exam period starts from the day you pass the theoretical test (Subject 1), giving you a full three years to complete the remaining Subject 2 (field driving) and Subject 3 (road driving) tests. If you don't finish within three years, your previous theoretical results become invalid, and you'll have to retake Subject 1, which wastes both time and money. After passing the theory test myself, I immediately scheduled driving practice sessions, afraid of procrastinating. I advise new drivers to plan ahead when registering, making the most of weekends or holidays for extra practice, so they can finish early and have peace of mind. Additionally, there might be slight variations between driving schools in different regions, but the core rule is always based on the date of passing Subject 1—don’t believe rumors that could delay your progress. Remember, safety comes first, and don’t slack off in your studies.

How to Properly Use High Beams?

High beam usage: High beams should only be used when there are no other lighting facilities on the road and no vehicles approaching from the opposite direction. High beams are extremely bright, and their misuse can severely impair the vision of oncoming drivers, potentially leading to traffic accidents. Therefore, it is crucial to use high beams correctly. Additional guidelines include: 1. On roads without central barriers or center lines, do not use high beams when meeting an oncoming vehicle within 150 meters. 2. Avoid using high beams when meeting non-motor vehicles on narrow bridges or roads without central barriers or center lines. 3. Do not use high beams when turning at intersections controlled by traffic signals. 4. In low visibility conditions such as at night without streetlights, poor illumination, or during fog, rain, snow, or dust, refrain from using high beams when following another vehicle closely in the same direction. 5. When overtaking at night, alternate between high and low beams to alert the vehicle ahead. 6. High beams are not recommended in well-lit urban areas.

What is the normal range of tire pressure?

Car tire pressure normally ranges between 230-250kpa. Cold tires and hot tires have different pressures, with hot tires being about 20kpa higher than cold tires. Standard tires have a pressure of 240kpa-250kpa, while reinforced tires have a pressure of 280kpa-290kpa. Additional information: Regularly checking tire pressure ensures safety: 1. Before driving, inspect the tire condition. Radial tires—commonly known as low-pressure tires—are normal as long as the aspect ratio is not too low; if they feel very elastic when pressed with your foot and not too soft, they are fine. 2. High-pressure tires: These refer to bias-ply tires with inner tubes. Viewed from the front, the shoulder area should not protrude, commonly referred to as "not bulging." Viewed from the side, the contact area with the ground should be similar to normal. 3. While driving, pay attention to the sound of friction between the tires and the ground, the cushioning force when driving over uneven roads, and whether the acceleration feels different from usual when pressing the gas pedal.

Can the Rear Seats of the Baojun 730 Be Folded Flat?

The rear seats of the Baojun 730 can be folded flat in two ways: partial folding and full folding. On both sides of the rear seats, you can find pull straps. By pulling these straps, you can adjust the seat backrest or fold it flat directly. Full folding of the rear seats means the backrest is a single unit, allowing for more space when needed. However, when the rear seats are folded flat, they cannot accommodate passengers. Below is an introduction to the Baojun 730: 1. In terms of space, the Baojun 730 CVT version features an ergonomically optimized design with a 2+3+2 seating layout. The second and third-row seats can be folded completely flat to suit different needs, ensuring passenger comfort while providing ample and practical storage space. 2. In terms of power, the Baojun 730 CVT version is equipped with a '1.5T turbocharged engine + simulated 8-speed CVT transmission' powertrain combination. The engine has a rated power of 111kW and a maximum net torque of 250N·m.

Where is the cruise control switch for the BYD Qin?

The cruise control switch for the BYD Qin is located on the left side of the steering wheel. When the vehicle is started and shifted into D gear, press the cruise control switch, and the cruise control indicator light on the instrument cluster will illuminate. When the vehicle speed exceeds the preset speed, press the set button to set the current speed as the target cruise speed, and the 'SET' indicator light on the instrument panel will illuminate, indicating that the setting is successful. The BYD Qin is a high-performance sedan under the BYD brand. The dimensions of this car are 4740 mm in length, 1770 mm in width, and 1480 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2670 mm. In terms of exterior design, the BYD Qin features a multi-horizontal grille integrated with the headlights at the front, giving it a highly recognizable and cohesive appearance. The rear of the car still adopts an integrated tail light assembly, with a '5.9 seconds' badge on the rear, highlighting the BYD Qin's rapid acceleration capability.

Why Do Trucks Need to Add Urea?

Trucks add urea to reduce the harmful gases produced by diesel vehicles during operation, thereby minimizing the environmental and human health impacts of vehicle emissions. Additional Information: During diesel engine operation, nitrogen oxides are generated, which are harmful to both the environment and human health. Urea contains a very high nitrogen content. When the vehicle detects the presence of these harmful gases, urea is automatically sprayed and mixes with the gases produced by the diesel engine. A chemical reaction then occurs, converting the harmful gases into water and nitrogen, both of which are harmless to humans and the environment, thus serving to protect the environment.

What is the break-in period for the BYD Song in kilometers?

BYD Song break-in period is approximately 2000-3000 kilometers. During the break-in period, try to control the engine's maximum speed, do not exceed 3000 RPM, and the maximum speed should not exceed 100 mph. Here is some relevant information: 1. Break-in is also called running-in. The car break-in period refers to the initial driving stage of a new car or after a major overhaul, generally 1000~1500 kilometers. This is the basic mileage to ensure full contact, friction, adaptation, and shaping of the components. During this period, the ability of various car parts to adapt to the environment can be adjusted and improved, and the protrusions on the parts can be worn off. The quality of the car break-in will have a significant impact on the car's lifespan, safety, and fuel economy. 2. Although new cars leaving the factory have undergone a break-in, the surface of the parts is still relatively rough. In addition, there are certain deviations in processing and assembly, as well as some hidden defects that are difficult to detect. Moreover, between new parts and accessories, many metal particles fall off. These metal particles not only increase the wear between parts but also degrade the quality of the engine oil when they fall into it, affecting the lubrication effect.
