Can I Get Compensation Without Purchasing Vehicle Damage Insurance?

If you haven't purchased vehicle damage insurance, you cannot get compensation for your own car's damages. Compulsory traffic insurance and third-party liability insurance only cover damages to the other party involved in an accident. Only vehicle damage insurance provides compensation for your own vehicle's losses. The coverage of vehicle damage insurance includes the following: 1. Scope of protection: During the insurance period, if the insured or an authorized driver causes an accident or suffers from natural disasters (excluding earthquakes) while using the insured vehicle, the insurer will be responsible for compensation. However, if situations specified in the insurance contract occur, such as the insured or an authorized driver operating the vehicle without a license or under the influence of alcohol, the insurer may be exempt from liability. 2. Recommended groups for purchasing vehicle damage insurance: Novice drivers, new cars, and high-value vehicles: Novice drivers are more likely to be involved in accidents due to their lack of driving experience. Owners of new cars often want to protect their vehicles from significant damage in case of an accident, so purchasing vehicle damage insurance is advisable for both novice drivers and new car owners. High-value vehicles generally have higher repair costs compared to ordinary vehicles. To avoid unaffordable repair expenses in case of an accident, purchasing vehicle damage insurance helps mitigate this risk.

What is the proper position to adjust the seat for a driving test?

Since everyone's body size is different, the height adjustment of the seat for a driving test will vary. For most sedans and SUVs, there should be a gap of one to two fists between the top of the head and the roof of the car, ensuring that the horizontal eye line is positioned slightly above the center of the vertical distance of the front windshield. Seat forward and backward adjustment: Depending on the vehicle model and configuration, the adjustable angle switches may vary. When adjusting the seat's forward and backward distance, always remember the principle: your feet should be able to fully depress the clutch and brake pedals, and your arms should be slightly bent when holding the steering wheel. Steering wheel adjustment: The position of the steering wheel should be adjusted according to the seat's position. If the steering wheel is too close to the body, it may increase the risk of injury when the airbag deploys. If it is too far, it may lead to misoperation in emergency situations. The optimal position for the steering wheel is when your arms are fully extended and rest on the top of the steering wheel, with your wrists just touching the edge of the wheel. Backrest angle adjustment: The backrest angle greatly affects comfort. It should be adjusted reasonably—neither too reclined nor too upright. This reduces the distance between the body and the steering wheel, which may increase the risk of injury from the airbag in an emergency.

Is a Four-Wheel Drive Faster Than a Two-Wheel Drive with the Same Horsepower?

When the power is sufficiently strong and the torque is abundant, the four-wheel drive model will undoubtedly have the fastest acceleration. The differences between two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive vehicles are as follows: 1. Performance Differences: Four-wheel drive vehicles excel in power and off-road capability, making them suitable for rugged terrains. They can distribute the engine's power to all four wheels, significantly enhancing vehicle control and passage ability. Four-wheel drive systems are mostly found in SUV models. Two-wheel drive vehicles balance urban commuting and off-road performance, driven by two wheels, which are further divided into front-wheel drive and rear-wheel drive. Rear-wheel drive is more common in performance cars, while front-wheel drive is prevalent in family cars. 2. Structural Principle Differences: As the name suggests, two-wheel drive vehicles have only two wheels responsible for driving the vehicle. Front-wheel drive means the two front wheels are responsible for driving, while rear-wheel drive means the two rear wheels are responsible. Four-wheel drive vehicles are categorized into natural four-wheel drive, full-time four-wheel drive, and part-time four-wheel drive. Natural four-wheel drive means all four wheels have driving functionality, full-time four-wheel drive means all four wheels are always in driving mode, and part-time four-wheel drive allows the driver to manually switch between four-wheel and two-wheel drive.

Does Parking in First Gear Affect the Car?

Parking in first gear for an extended period can have a certain impact on the car's transmission, and there is a higher likelihood of stalling when restarting the engine due to being in first gear. Below are some parking precautions to note: 1. Do not leave the vehicle: Temporary roadside parking allows passengers to get on and off temporarily, and waiting for 2-3 minutes is generally fine. However, if surveillance footage shows the driver leaving the vehicle during roadside parking, even if the car is not turned off, it is mostly considered illegal parking. 2. Temporary parking should be within 5 minutes: Even if there is a temporary parking sign on the roadway, parking is strictly prohibited within the yellow grid lines on either side of the lane; otherwise, it is undoubtedly considered illegal parking. Although there may be some conflict between the two signs, it is an explicit traffic rule that parking is prohibited within yellow grid lines, and this is beyond doubt. 3. No-parking zones: Parking is not allowed within 30 meters of bus stops, emergency stations, gas stations, fire hydrants, or fire stations (except when using these facilities). Additionally, parking is prohibited at intersections, railway crossings, sharp curves, narrow roads less than 4 meters wide, bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, and within 50 meters of these locations.

Why can't I pass the color vision test for the 6-year license renewal?

Normally, individuals with mild color vision deficiency (color weakness) can still renew their driver's license. According to national regulations, only those with red-green color blindness are prohibited from obtaining a driver's license. Here are the relevant details: Generally, if the color vision deficiency is mild and the individual can distinguish between red and green, they are eligible to obtain a driver's license. However, if the color vision deficiency is severe, a hospital examination and evaluation are required to determine eligibility. Color vision deficiency, also known as 'anomalous trichromacy,' is a type of color vision defect. Individuals with this condition can recognize colors but have reduced sensitivity. They may only perceive colors when they are highly saturated and may struggle to distinguish subtle hue differences unless the wavelength difference is significant. The 'Road Traffic Safety Law' and its implementing regulations stipulate that applicants for a motor vehicle driver's license must meet specified licensing conditions. The 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses' (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 111) explicitly states that applicants must not have red-green color blindness. Color vision deficiency is not the same as color blindness. As long as the applicant does not have red-green color blindness, they can pass the driver's license medical examination. Those with mild color vision deficiency who can distinguish red and green can apply for a license renewal, provided they submit a medical certificate from a hospital. The red-green color blindness test during the medical examination aims to prevent traffic accidents caused by running red lights.

How long should you practice for Subject 3 before taking the test?

Subject 3 The duration of practice required for Subject 3 depends on individual aptitude. However, since the operations in Subject 3 are relatively simple overall, instructors typically arrange practice sessions only 3 to 4 days before the test. If your aptitude is not strong, be sure to communicate with your instructor in advance to start practicing earlier and secure more practice days. Subject 3 generally refers to the road driving skills test, while the safety and civilized driving knowledge test is referred to as Subject 4. The road driving skills test includes 16 items: vehicle preparation, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, changing lanes, passing through intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. For the Subject 3 road driving skills test, you have five opportunities to schedule the test. After scheduling, you can take the test once and have one retake, totaling ten attempts. If you do not attend the retake or fail the retake, you must reschedule the test. If you fail the fifth scheduled test, any previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and the student will need to retake the test starting from Subject 1.
