A circle with a 'P' inside on the dashboard indicates the handbrake light. Brake system warning light: The handbrake light is a circle with a 'P' inside. If a circle with an exclamation mark appears on the dashboard, it indicates a fault in the brake system. This is the brake system warning light. The brake system is crucial for the vehicle's driving stability and safety. If there is a fault in the brake system, immediate repair is required. Handbrake light flashing: The handbrake light may flash due to poor contact in the handbrake switch or the handbrake indicator light. The handbrake is a frequently used device in daily driving. When parking, it is necessary to pull the handbrake tight. Most cars are equipped with mechanical lever handbrakes, while some vehicles feature electronic handbrakes.

What to Do If a Tire is Cut by Glass?

First, if the cut on the tire has damaged the internal cord fabric or if it is already severely damaged, it is not recommended to repair and continue using it. If the sidewall is scratched, replacement is advised. If the cut on the tire has not damaged the cord fabric, it can still be used, but regular checks are needed to see if the damage has expanded.

The water temperature scale ranges from C to H, where C represents 60 degrees. Once the needle reaches C, it indicates the water temperature has reached 60 degrees; the red H mark denotes 110 degrees. The needle should ideally remain in the middle position.

Can an expired ID card with a magnetic strip be used for the Subject 3 driving test?

An expired ID card cannot be used for the Subject 3 driving test. You need to take your ID card to the local police station in your permanent residence area to apply for a replacement. At the same time, you should apply for a temporary ID card, which has the same legal effect as a formal ID card within its validity period. The temporary ID card is valid for three months, and it usually takes three days to obtain, though you can often get it on the same day. You can use the temporary ID card to take the Subject 3 test. The driving test is a qualification examination organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driving test can you obtain a driver's license and legally operate a motor vehicle. The test content and passing standards are uniform nationwide, with corresponding test items specified for different types of vehicles. The "Interim ID Card Management Regulations" stipulate in Article 14: Citizens engaged in relevant activities that require identity verification have the right to use a temporary resident ID card to prove their identity. Relevant units and their staff are not allowed to refuse. However, the temporary ID card is valid for only three months, so it is recommended to apply for a new ID card as soon as possible. If you know your ID card has expired before the test, you can first inquire with the driving test center or the Vehicle Management Office whether other valid documents (such as a residence permit) can be used. If not, go to the local police station in your registered residence to apply for a temporary ID card as soon as possible. If you really cannot apply for a temporary ID card in time, cancel the test at the Vehicle Management Office at least one day in advance. This way, it will not be counted as a failure or absence, and you will not waste a test attempt. There are a total of five attempts for the Subject 3 test. If you fail the first attempt, you get one free retake on the spot. If you still fail the retake, the test session will be terminated. Subject 3 includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. It is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination and is also referred to as the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test for motor vehicle drivers. The road driving skills test content varies for different types of vehicles. Test content: Getting into the car, lighting simulation test, starting, driving straight, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, driving straight through an intersection, turning left at an intersection, turning right at an intersection, crossing a pedestrian crossing, passing a school zone, passing a bus stop, meeting another vehicle, overtaking, making a U-turn, and nighttime driving. The safe driving knowledge test generally includes: safe and civilized driving operation requirements, safe driving knowledge in bad weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods such as tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.
