If the low beams appear the same whether they are on or off, it may be due to the height adjustment of the low beams, which can be adjusted at a 4S shop. Alternatively, it could be caused by window tinting film with poor light transmittance, leading to this situation. Below is more information about low beams: 1. Introduction: Low beams are designed for close-range illumination, featuring a wide coverage angle (160°) and short projection distance, with non-adjustable focus. 2. Function: Low beams have a distinct cutoff line between light and dark. Most vehicle low beams illuminate 30-40 meters ahead, with the cutoff line located around 12-18 meters. The area before the cutoff line is brightly lit, allowing clear object recognition, while a 2-3 meter diameter illuminated zone is visible on the ground. The area from the cutoff line to 30-40 meters mainly relies on ground-reflected light, where brightly colored objects can be distinguished. 3. High beams: High beams should only be used when there are no other lighting facilities on the road and no oncoming vehicles. Otherwise, they can severely impair other drivers' vision and even cause traffic accidents.

How many days after registration can you take the Subject 1 test?

After successfully enrolling in a driving school, the application form and physical condition certificate must be submitted to the Vehicle Management Office for review. Once the review is completed, you can schedule the Subject 1 test (some regions do not require study hours, so you can book the test immediately after the review is completed). It usually takes about 10 days to schedule the Subject 1 test. Before scheduling, you should review the Subject 1 study materials and practice test questions. Enrollment in a driving school is only a preliminary registration. After enrollment, the driving school submits the documents to the Vehicle Management Office. Upon successful submission, the Vehicle Management Office will issue a serial number, indicating successful registration. Once registered, you can schedule the Subject 1 test. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," Subject 1 consists of 100 multiple-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1 test content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; Local regulations; Knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; Specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 test precautions: During the exam, students must dress appropriately—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are not permitted in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures displayed on the large screen. Before entering the exam room, store personal belongings in a locker. Inside the exam room, the identity verification desk will assign a seat. Once seated, begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail it again, the exam process ends, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests must be scheduled at least ten days apart. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official terminology (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include the term "Subject 4."
