Not being able to find the vehicle brand and model during new license plate selection is usually caused by incorrect information input. You can refer to the model number on the vehicle conformity certificate and enter it correctly. Below is relevant information about new license plate selection: Query: Prepare the required documents and items, log in to the online license plate selection system, and directly enter the local online license plate selection website. Log in to the selection system, choose the business type, and read the business instructions. Enter the online self-numbering system, verify the system, and arrange the number according to the numbering rules. Notes: Prepare the car purchase invoice photo in advance, with a size below 1MB, ensuring it is clear and neat. If the uploaded invoice photo is unclear and the system cannot recognize it during the selection process, it may be flagged as a 'selection suspicion,' affecting normal selection. If you don't find a preferred license plate number during self-numbering, you can click on random selection up to 10 times. If there is still no satisfactory number, it will be considered a forfeit, and you can continue selecting at the vehicle management department using the number selection machine.

I've encountered the issue of not finding the model when selecting a license plate for a new car several times, and it's quite common. The most frequent reason is input errors, such as mistyping the brand or model, adding an extra space, or missing a character, which makes the system fail to recognize it. I bought my car last year and got confused during the plate selection process, omitting the model suffix, which almost drove me crazy. Another possibility is that the new car has just been launched, and the system database hasn't been updated properly. The DMV needs to wait for new information from the manufacturer, which may take a few days to synchronize. If you've checked your input and it still doesn't work, contact the dealer to ask for the correct model name or go directly to the DMV to resolve it on-site. This isn't a major issue; try refreshing the page or switching browsers, as sometimes platform bugs cause slow data loading. Selecting a license plate for a new car is a big deal, so be patient and don't panic.

Can Flood-Damaged Cars Be Sold?

Flood-damaged cars can be sold. Currently, there are no explicit national regulations prohibiting the sale of flood-damaged vehicles. As long as the flood-damaged car still has repair value, it can enter the used car market after being repaired and inspected. Risks of flood-damaged cars: A flood-damaged car refers to a vehicle that has been submerged in water, typically meaning the engine and transmission have been waterlogged, with the water level exceeding the wheels and seats, and the vehicle's underbody components being in prolonged contact with water. The risk factor is very high, as the electrical circuits are prone to short circuits and fire hazards. While flood-damaged cars can be repaired to some extent, even after repairs, they still pose serious hidden dangers. The longer the vehicle has been submerged, the higher the likelihood of malfunctions, and they cannot be completely restored. Precautions for trading flood-damaged cars: If a seller wants to sell a flood-damaged car, they should first repair the vehicle as thoroughly as possible to avoid leaving safety hazards. Secondly, they must truthfully inform the buyer of the actual condition to avoid being sued for contract fraud. Finally, both parties can negotiate the price and complete the transfer. As a buyer, when purchasing a car, you can check the extent of corrosion and rust on the chassis, look for residual mud in the seat rails and floor gaps inside the cabin, and examine the engine's inner firewall for signs of water damage. These methods can help determine whether the vehicle is a flood-damaged car.

Why Can't I Align the Car Straight in Subject 2 Driving Test?

If you can't align the car straight in Subject 2 driving test, it's likely because you haven't mastered the proper use of rearview mirrors. During reverse parking, observe whether the distance between the car body and both sides of the parking space is roughly equal. When you see the car body parallel to the parking line in the rearview mirror, the car is properly aligned at this point. If the distance between the car body and the parking line is too wide on one side, steer towards that side. The steering correction should not be too large, and you should straighten the wheels immediately when the car is nearly parallel. Master steering wheel control: First, learn the correct way to hold the steering wheel—left hand at the 9 o'clock position and right hand at the 3 o'clock position. Be mindful of how many turns you make, how many turns you need to return, and when to straighten the wheels. Control the speed: Before reverse parking, learn to control the speed. Drive at a slow but steady pace to avoid stalling, giving yourself enough time to adjust the angle during reverse parking.

What are the differences between the automatic and manual transmission tests in Subject 3?

In the Subject 3 test, the automatic transmission model does not include the gear shifting test item, while other items remain the same. Automatic transmission is easier to operate and safer: Manual transmission primarily relies on the driver manually pressing the clutch to complete gear changes; automatic transmission mainly relies on the hydraulic transmission principle of the torque converter to automatically shift gears, eliminating the need for the driver to manually shift. The vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on driving speed and traffic conditions. Comparatively, automatic transmission models are easier to operate, significantly increasing the chances of passing the test. The neutral gear in manual transmission vehicles causes a loss of power, posing certain safety risks, and learners are more prone to operational errors due to nervousness. Automatic transmission vehicles cannot use the neutral gear while driving, making them safer. Differences between manual and automatic transmission in the driving test: Regarding test requirements, besides the differences in Subject 3, Subject 2 also varies. The manual transmission test for Subject 2 includes 5 items, while the automatic transmission test only has 4, omitting "fixed-point parking and starting on a slope." Differences between manual and automatic transmission licenses: The manual transmission license is C1, and the automatic transmission license is C2. The C1 level is higher than C2, meaning C1 covers the vehicle types permitted by C2.

Is Car Detailing the Same as Interior Cleaning?

Car detailing and interior cleaning are not the same; interior cleaning is only a part of car detailing, which includes more comprehensive cleaning tasks covering other areas of the vehicle. Car detailing includes the cleaning of the body surface, tires, rims, cabin, dashboard, windshield, engine surface, paint surface, tires, interior leather, etc., and typically takes 45-90 minutes. Precautions for car detailing: When rinsing the car with water, avoid spraying water into the lock holes. During cleaning, use a dispersed water stream to soak and loosen hardened dirt before scrubbing with a sponge from top to bottom. Finally, use a chamois to wipe away water marks. When cleaning the engine compartment, be careful not to splash water onto electrical system components such as the distributor and ignition coil. It is best to use a foam-based cleaner, as foam stays on the surface of dirt longer, breaking it down and lifting it away. Interior cleaning involves cleaning carpets, seats, air vents, trunk, dashboard, center console, floor, headliner, seats, and trunk, along with disinfection and deodorization. Common methods for interior cleaning include: Cleaner cleaning, using professional cleaners to scrub various interior parts to remove dirt. Interior steam cleaning, using high-temperature steam from a steam cleaner. Ozone disinfection, utilizing an ozone generator to produce ozone ions that adhere to bacteria, achieving a sterilizing effect. Toxin separation, spraying professional toxin separation agents under floor mats and in hard-to-reach areas, then setting the air conditioning to recirculate mode and running the engine for 10 minutes to enhance the cleaning effect.

How long can you drive on the dashed line in the Subject 3 test?

In the Subject 3 test, you cannot drive on the dashed line for more than five seconds. During the test, you must not drive on any solid lines; only dashed lines are allowed, but there is a time limit, and it should not be too long. The Subject 3 test consists of two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge. Subject 3 Road Driving Skills Test Content: Vehicle preparation, light simulation test, starting, driving in a straight line, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test Content: Requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Road Driving Skills Test Notes: During the test, follow the voice prompts for operations. Note that when driving in a straight line, the speed is relatively fast, and the direction can easily deviate, so you should learn to look far ahead and avoid gripping the steering wheel too tightly. Areas where you should brake in advance include straight intersections, bus stops, pedestrian crossings, school zones, left and right turns, U-turns, and meeting oncoming vehicles. After the test, remember to turn off all lights.

Will the money be refunded if the subject three test appointment is canceled?

Subject three test appointment cancellation will result in a refund, which is generally credited to the account balance and can be used for the next exam registration. However, the cancellation request must be submitted at least one day before the exam date. Cancellations on the exam day or no-shows will be treated as a failure, and the exam fee will not be refunded. Methods to cancel the subject three test appointment: To cancel the subject three test appointment, you must do so at least one day in advance. If you are unable to attend the exam on the scheduled day, you cannot cancel the appointment. If the exam has not been successfully scheduled and is still in the pending status, you can cancel it online by logging into the 12123 APP and following the instructions. If you have already received a successful appointment confirmation message, you will need to prepare your original ID card and a written application for cancellation. Visit the vehicle management office's service window to submit the cancellation request for the subject three test and hand over the materials to the staff for review. Consequences of canceling the subject three test appointment: Canceling a successfully scheduled subject three test appointment will affect your ranking for the next appointment, delaying the time of your next successful appointment. The subject three test appointments are prioritized based on rankings, with higher-priority users ranked higher and thus given earlier exam slots. If the appointment is not successfully scheduled, canceling it will not affect your ranking. Typically, students whose 3-year validity period is about to expire have the highest priority and are entitled to one priority scheduling right for each subject.
