Subject 3 has six braking points as follows: 1. Driving straight through an intersection: Due to the complex situation at intersections, there may be vehicles or pedestrians passing. Students should apply the brakes in advance to slow down when preparing to pass through an intersection, and the speed should not exceed 30km/h. Even if the traffic light is green with no vehicles or pedestrians obstructing, a light brake must still be applied. Otherwise, the safety officer will directly fail the student. 2. Bus stops: Generally, there will be voice prompts. If there are no voice prompts, pay attention to the roadside signs. When passing, apply the brakes and pass slowly. 3. Crosswalks: Students must apply the brakes to slow down when passing through a crosswalk. If there are pedestrians crossing, they must stop and wait, ensuring not to stop the vehicle on the crosswalk. Avoid uncivilized behaviors such as rushing or honking, which will result in immediate failure. 4. School zones: The principle is the same as for bus stops. The speed should be below 30km/h, and when passing, brakes must be applied to slow down. If encountering situations like students crossing the road after school, stop and wait. 5. Left and right turns: Whether turning left or right, turn signals must be activated in advance, then slow down and pass. 6. U-turns: When making a U-turn, always slow down, and if necessary, shift to a lower gear (1st or 2nd). Without deceleration, turning the vehicle too quickly will result in poor smoothness and make the safety officer very uncomfortable.

I remember during the driving test (Subject 3), the braking points were crucial, with six main spots requiring attention. First, at the starting point, you must press the brake as soon as you get in the car to confirm the parking position is stable—don't rush to start. Before crossing a pedestrian crossing, you must stop briefly, slowing down to observe pedestrian safety. At turns, whether left or right, brake a few meters in advance to reduce speed and avoid skidding. Bus stops are also key spots—slow down when passing and brake to ensure no vehicles or pedestrians are present. At traffic lights or intersections, you must stop completely for red lights—never run them. The final spot is usually pulling over after the test; find the right position and brake to a complete stop. The key to passing Subject 3 is practicing these points repeatedly, coordinating the clutch and throttle smoothly, prioritizing safety while aiming for high marks. Examiners focus heavily on this—missing a point means retaking the test. I practiced over ten times to master the rhythm, so I recommend beginners jot down the spots on paper and simulate them repeatedly.

From a driving experience perspective, there are six main braking points in Subject 3 (road test), which I need to elaborate on. At the starting point, you must brake to confirm safety before moving off - don't rush nervously. You must slow down and brake before zebra crossings, especially when seeing pedestrians - come to a complete stop and wait three seconds. Brake early to reduce speed when turning, otherwise understeer accidents may occur. Bus stops are blind spots - brake early to observe surrounding movements. Traffic lights have the most obvious braking points - stop at red, go at green, no carelessness. When pulling over, brake to fix your position without crossing lines. These points seem simple but it's easy to forget one or two during actual tests - I recommend drawing a map during daily practice to mark them and build habits. Remember, braking for speed control is fundamental - vehicle speed affects overall scoring, with safe driving being the core principle. My friend failed because of one missed point - with more practice time, you'll eventually pass.

As a frequent observer of driving tests, there are six key braking points to accurately identify in Subject 3: First, press the brake when getting in the car at the starting point for confirmation; come to a complete stop before the crosswalk; slow down and ease into turns; ensure low-speed passage near bus stops; must stop at traffic lights or red signals at intersections; finally, use the brake to position the car when pulling over. The points are fixed, but execution requires attention to detail—high speed can easily lead to oversight. Maintaining steadiness without delay is crucial.

What are the causes of Camry idle vibration?

Camry idle vibration may be caused by the following reasons: 1. Severe engine carbon deposits - The most common cause of car vibration is dirty throttle valves or excessive carbon buildup in fuel injectors. When there's too much carbon deposit inside the engine, the gasoline sprayed by cold start injectors will be largely absorbed by these deposits; 2. Engine misfire - This mainly refers to one or more cylinders not working properly, manifested as: intermittent exhaust gas flow with noticeable exhaust pipe vibration, obvious engine vibration that can be felt, sometimes accompanied by "popping" sounds. This is mostly related to ignition coil failure; 3. Uneven air-fuel mixture in the engine can also cause idle vibration after cold start. The lower the temperature, the more fuel required for cold start, and the presence of carbon deposits will significantly affect whether cold start proceeds smoothly.

Does idling the car with the heater on cause damage to the vehicle?

Idling the car with the heater on does not cause damage to the vehicle as long as the engine reaches its normal operating temperature. However, if the heater is turned on while the engine is still cold and has not reached its normal operating temperature, it can slow down the engine's warming process, leading to increased fuel consumption. Nevertheless, this does not harm the car. Below is some relevant information: 1. The fuel consumption when using the heater during idling depends on the car's displacement and engine tuning. For household cars, idling with the heater on for one hour consumes approximately 1 to 2 liters of fuel, though this may vary depending on the car model. 2. While idling with the heater on does not cause serious damage to the car, it can affect the passengers inside. Since the fuel does not burn completely during idling, carbon monoxide is produced. If the windows are not opened, the concentration of carbon monoxide inside the car can gradually increase, potentially leading to carbon monoxide poisoning for the passengers.

Can I use my original license plate when changing to a new car?

When changing to a new car, you can retain your original license plate. For car owners who wish to keep their original plate, it is essential to ensure that the original plate has been used for more than one year. Only then will the plate be retained under the original owner's name during the transfer process. The retention period is one year. If the owner does not apply to reuse the plate within this period, it will automatically expire after one year, and the vehicle management office will reclaim the plate, making it unavailable for future use. The required documents for changing the car without changing the plate are as follows: 1. "Motor Vehicle Transfer or Registration Application Form"; 2. Original and copy of the owner's ID card; 3. Proof of vehicle purchase tax payment or tax exemption certificate, vehicle annual inspection certificate, and relevant documents submitted during vehicle registration; 4. Non-local residents also need to bring a residence permit and proof of the vehicle's origin; 5. For imported vehicles, additional documents include import certificates, vehicle whole-vehicle factory qualification certificate, and compulsory traffic insurance certificate.

Should the tire pressure be the same for front and rear wheels of a sedan?

Front tire pressure and rear tire pressure can be different, but the difference should not be too large. Tire pressure is a range, not an exact value. In certain specific situations, it is more appropriate for the rear tire pressure to be higher than the front tire pressure. Below is relevant information: 1. For example, when the rear seats are fully occupied by three people and the trunk is also loaded with many items, the rear tire pressure should be higher than the front tire pressure. Higher rear tire pressure can make the car more fuel-efficient, resulting in lower fuel consumption. Additionally, the car can accelerate faster. The principle is: the higher the tire pressure, the smaller the contact area between the tire and the ground; the lower the tire pressure, the larger the contact area. 2. The front wheels are not only the driving wheels but also the steering wheels. If the front tire pressure is higher, the wear on the front tires will increase. Both the front and rear tire pressures must be within the standard range, and the difference should ideally not exceed 0.1bar.

Is 0W40 Oil Suitable for All Seasons?

0W40 engine oil is considered all-season oil, but its suitability still depends on the temperature of the location where the vehicle is used. The 0W designation indicates the oil's cold-start performance—the smaller the number, the better the oil's cold resistance. Therefore, using 0W40 oil allows for easy engine starts even in cold weather. The number 40 represents the kinematic viscosity standard at 100°C (between 12.5mm²/s and 16.3mm²/s). Additional information: 1. In fact, many modern engine oils are designed for both winter and summer use, primarily depending on the oil's quality grade and performance. If the engine frequently operates under high-load conditions (accelerating oil consumption), it is advisable to use full synthetic or semi-synthetic oil. 2. As for quality grades, following the level specified in the vehicle's manual is generally sufficient for daily use. However, if the vehicle is often driven in congested urban environments, upgrading to a higher-grade oil (more environmentally friendly and economical) may be considered.
