Cadillac discontinued the CTS due to its new vehicle plan, with successor models CT5 and the ATS successor CT4 entering production. Here are the details: 1. Introduction to the first-generation CTS: In 2004, the first-generation CTS-V was launched, equipped with a 5.7L V8-OHV engine producing 400 HP and 536 N·m of torque. 2. Introduction to the CT5: As a mid-to-large sedan for both family and business use, ample power is essential. The new car will be equipped with a 3.0T V6 turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 246 kW and peak torque of 400 N·m, paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. The all-new Cadillac CT5 will be domestically produced this year, leading to a lower price range, giving it significant competitive pricing compared to rivals like the Audi A6, BMW 5 Series, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

Does the vehicle owner have to handle traffic violations in person?

Handling vehicle traffic violations does not necessarily require the vehicle owner to handle it in person; it can be delegated to someone else to pay the fine. Below are the relevant matters regarding handling traffic violations: Documents required for handling traffic violations: To handle traffic violations, you need to bring the driver's personal identification, the vehicle's registration certificate, and the driver's license. Regulations regarding handling traffic violations: For general traffic violations, once the violator pays the fine specified in the penalty decision notice at the designated bank, the penalty points can be cleared. Legal basis: Article 108 of the Road Traffic Safety Law states that the party concerned shall pay the fine at the designated bank within 15 days from the date of receiving the penalty decision notice. For fines imposed on pedestrians, passengers, and non-motor vehicle drivers, the fine can be collected on the spot if the party concerned has no objection.

What are the differences between the left turn waiting signal and the slow down signal?

The differences between the left turn waiting signal and the slow down signal are as follows: 1. Left turn signal: The traffic police officer extends their right arm forward with the palm facing forward; the left arm and hand swing straight to the right front with the palm facing right, allowing vehicles to turn left. U-turns are permitted if they do not interfere with the passage of released vehicles. 2. Slow down signal: The right arm extends to the right front with the palm facing downward; the right arm and hand swing straight downward, indicating that vehicles should slow down. 3.

How Many Items Are in the Automatic Transmission Vehicle Subject 2 Test?

The C2 Subject 2 test consists of 4 items: reverse parking, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turning. Compared to the C1 manual transmission test, it excludes the hill start item. According to Article 25 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), starting from June 1, 2021, the C2 and C5 Subject 2 tests no longer assess the hill start and stop. Reverse parking is one of the more challenging items in the Subject 2 test, so many test centers arrange it as the first item. The key to reverse parking lies in mastering three points: the steering wheel's full-lock point, the 30-centimeter correction point, and the parking point inside the bay. Drivers must follow the prescribed route and sequence. The vehicle must be parked inside the bay without crossing the lines. Parallel parking focuses on aligning the front line of the parking space with the rear wheel, spotting the rear corner in the mirror, and maintaining the distance between the wheel and the left dashed line. There's no need to straighten the wheels after parking, but remember to use the turn signal when exiting. After parking, the vehicle body must not cross the lines, and the tires must not touch the lane boundaries during movement. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-turn, is manageable for many students with good vehicle control, often completed by feel alone, indicating its moderate difficulty. However, some students misjudge the line positions during the actual test, leading to immediate failure by crossing the lines. The key to the S-turn is observing the reference points on the front hood and the edge lines. The wheels must not press against the road edges. Right-angle turning is relatively easier, essentially a simplified version of the exit phase from reverse parking. The method for finding the reference point is similar to exiting the bay, based on the relationship between the front hood's horizontal line and the front line (either aligning or slightly delaying). Ensure the wheels do not touch the road edges. Typically, the C1 Subject 2 requires 16 hours of training, while the C2 Subject 2 requires 14 hours. Completing the required training hours is a basic prerequisite for taking the Subject 2 test. Training hours can only be increased, not reduced, with additional items requiring corresponding extra hours. Each training hour lasts 60 minutes, with effective teaching time no less than 45 minutes. If a candidate fails the Subject 2 test, they are allowed one retake. Failing the retake ends the current test session, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. If the test is failed five times in a row (including retakes, totaling 10 attempts), all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and the candidate must restart the learning and testing process from Subject 1.
