The reasons for the blackening inside the exhaust pipe are: 1. Poor fuel quality: Inferior fuel quality not only leads to incomplete combustion but also causes carbon deposits to form in the engine. Under ideal conditions, an air-fuel ratio of 14.7:1 ensures optimal combustion, minimizing pollution emissions; 2. Poor driving habits: Such as frequently accelerating abruptly or driving at idle speed, or often leaving the car idling with the air conditioning on. While a blackened exhaust pipe is not a disease itself, long-term carbon buildup can damage the engine, increase wear, and reduce power. Regular maintenance of the fuel system, intake, and exhaust systems is a good choice to reduce carbon deposits and lower exhaust emissions.

Can I pass if the car is parked crookedly by the roadside?

Parking crookedly by the roadside will result in point deductions. During the Subject 3 roadside parking test, the distance between the wheels and the right edge of the road must be within 30 centimeters, and the wheels must not press against the road edge line. To find this reference point, the method is similar to the Subject 2 hill parking test: divide the front of the car into three equal parts, and when the right one-third of the car aligns with the edge line, the distance between the car body and the edge line will be exactly 30cm. Introduction to Subject 3: 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 assessment and is the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed. Subject 3 test content: The road driving skills test of Subject 3 generally includes: preparation before starting, simulated lighting test, starting, driving straight, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, parking by the roadside, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test generally includes: 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.

How many points can be added to a driver's license in one year?

One person can add a maximum of 15 points per year. Point addition system: This point addition system is only applicable to certain regions, such as Guangzhou car owners, who can currently report other car owners' violations to add points to their own driver's license. However, it should be noted that a maximum of 5 reports of other car owners' violations can be made per year; additionally, these points cannot be combined with the 12 points within the scoring cycle. Scoring cycle: A driver's license has a scoring cycle of 12 points. If all 12 points are deducted, the owner must undergo further study and then take an exam. Currently, the driver's license implements a point addition system, meaning that the scoring cycle of a driver's license is no longer limited to just 12 points.

Why does the left side of the cab leak on rainy days?

The left side of the cab leaks on rainy days because the sunroof sealing strip has failed, causing water to seep through the sunroof gap. The sealing strip needs to be replaced. Alternatively, it could be due to leaks from the window gap or door gap. You should take it to a car wash and use a high-pressure water gun to carefully inspect the area to identify the cause, and then proceed with the necessary repairs based on the findings. Introduction to the cab: The cab (cab) is an important component of the body of trucks and special-purpose vehicles, serving as the workspace for professional drivers day and night. Its structure directly affects the driver's safety, work efficiency, and health. Composition of the cab: The cab is generally constructed with a thin-shell metal structure and is flexibly connected to the frame, not bearing any load, which makes it a non-load-bearing body. Modern cabs also emphasize reducing air resistance, focusing on aesthetic design, and using panoramic curved glass.

Will there be a notification if the driving test appointment is unsuccessful?

There will be a notification if the driving test appointment is unsuccessful. After an applicant applies for a motor vehicle driver's license and makes an online appointment independently, the vehicle management office will send a text message to the applicant within three to five days. If the appointment is successful, the test time and venue will be notified; if the appointment is unsuccessful, a notification of the failed appointment will be received. Subjects of the driving test: The driver's license test is conducted in the order of Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4. In the test items of Subject 3, the new regulations circulating online also place more emphasis on the driver's safety and civilized awareness. Retaking the test if unsuccessful: Subjects 2 and 3 of the driving test can only be taken five times each. If not passed, the driving school fee must be paid again. According to the Ministry of Public Security's Orders No. 123 and No. 125, if the fifth scheduled test for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills is still not passed, all other subjects that have been passed will be invalidated. To obtain a driver's license, one must re-register and pay the driving school tuition.

Is the ID card number on the driver's license?

There is an ID card number on the driver's license. Driver's license number: The number below the document name on the main page and the supplementary page of the driver's license is the driver's license number. Since each driver's license is unique and non-repetitive, similar to an ID card, the driver's license number uses the ID card number. This establishes a certain correlation between the driver's license and the ID card, making it convenient for traffic police to quickly compare the ID card and the driver's license. At the same time, in some cases, the driver's license can serve as personal identification. File number: The driver's license number is present on both the main and supplementary pages of the driver's license, while the file number is only on the supplementary page. After obtaining a driver's license, each person will have a file generated in the vehicle management office's online system. This file is used to store violation information and processing status. When checking the driver's license, the traffic police not only verify the information on the license but also query the violation records through the file number. This is why the supplementary page of the driver's license, despite having few words, is still indispensable.
