When driving, use the ball of your foot to press the accelerator. The operation of the accelerator pedal should use the right heel placed on the floor of the driver's compartment as a pivot point, with the ball of the foot gently resting on the accelerator pedal. The ankle joint's extension and flexion movements are used to press down or release the pedal. When operating the accelerator pedal, apply force gently, ensuring a smooth press and gradual release. Driving taboos: Do not wear inappropriate footwear such as slippers while driving, especially for female drivers. Wearing high heels or platform shoes while driving is extremely dangerous. Tiptoeing on the pedals makes it impossible to control the pressure accurately, and in case of an emergency, the consequences could be dire. Right foot placement method: Experienced drivers with high safety awareness keep their right foot hovering above the brake pedal when not accelerating, as a "precautionary measure." In case of any situation, the right foot does not need to make a judgment and can press the brake pedal at the fastest speed possible in the first instance.

What are the penalty items for the slope parking test in Subject 2?

Penalty items for slope parking are as follows: After parking, if the right side of the vehicle body is more than 30 cm from the roadside line, 10 points will be deducted; if it exceeds 50 cm, 100 points will be deducted; crossing or touching the line results in a 100-point deduction. After parking, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and the deviation does not exceed 50 cm, 10 points will be deducted; if it exceeds 50 cm, 100 points will be deducted. After parking, failing to fully engage the parking brake results in a 10-point deduction. Failing to start within 30 seconds results in a 100-point deduction. Stalling the engine once during startup results in a 10-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral or park results in a 100-point deduction. If the vehicle rolls back less than 30 cm during startup, 10 points will be deducted; if it rolls back more than 30 cm, 100 points will be deducted. Key points for slope parking operation: Upon hearing the "slope parking" instruction (approximately 20 meters from the pole), turn on the right turn signal, steer appropriately to the right, and drive slowly along the right side of the road, paying attention to the distance between the vehicle body and the right roadside line. When the vehicle is about 10 meters from the parking pole, approach the target slowly, accurately, and steadily. Aim accurately at the target, using a specific point on the parking pole and the windshield (or hood) as a reference (this point should be determined during practice, as it varies by vehicle type and driver height). When the reference point on the windshield aligns with the parking pole, meaning the vehicle bumper aligns with the parking pole line, stop immediately.

Can a car over 15 years old still be transferred?

In January 2013, the Ministry of Commerce of China updated the "Regulations on the Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles," abolishing the unified 15-year scrapping rule and replacing it with a 600,000-kilometer scrapping standard. As a result, some older vehicles in good condition with low mileage can continue to be driven, and some cars over 15 years old can still be transferred. The latest "Regulations on the Mandatory Scrapping Standards for Motor Vehicles" stipulate the following regarding motor vehicle scrapping: Article 4: Registered motor vehicles that fall under any of the following circumstances shall be mandatorily scrapped. The owner shall sell the motor vehicle to a recycling and dismantling enterprise for scrapped motor vehicles, which will handle registration, dismantling, destruction, etc., in accordance with regulations, and submit the motor vehicle registration certificate, license plate, and driving license to the traffic management department of the public security authority for cancellation: Having reached the service life specified in Article 5 of these regulations; Failing to meet the national safety technical standards for in-use motor vehicles after repair and adjustment; Still failing to meet the national standards for pollutant or noise emissions from in-use motor vehicles after repair, adjustment, or the adoption of control technologies; Failing to obtain the motor vehicle inspection qualification mark for three consecutive inspection cycles after the expiration of the inspection validity period.

Should the car air conditioning AC be turned off every time?

The car air conditioning AC should be turned off every time, as this can reduce the vehicle's fuel consumption. Below is some extended information about gasoline: 1. Development Background: In the mid-19th century, people did not yet recognize the importance of gasoline, and kerosene for lighting was widely used at the time. Petroleum refining then relied on simple distillation processes to separate components with different boiling points from crude oil. Kerosene, with its higher boiling point, was safer for lighting and became the primary product of crude oil refining, while gasoline and other components were often burned as fuel. 2. Carcinogens: On October 27, 2017, the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) preliminarily listed engine exhaust and gasoline as Group 2B carcinogens in its updated list of carcinogens.
