Crossing the line during reverse parking results in a 100-point deduction. Other violations that also lead to a 100-point deduction include the vehicle body crossing the line, failing to enter the parking space, stopping midway, not following the designated route, incorrect sequence of driving, and exceeding the time limit. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria that include failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. The rules for the Subject 2 driving test state that any of the following will result in failure: stopping midway, rolling back, not following voice instructions, or the wheels or vehicle body crossing the line. Many learners encounter the issue of crossing the line during Subject 2 training, and "crossing the line" is the most common reason for failing. The main cause of crossing the line is not mastering the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be the steering speed not matching the vehicle speed. Subject 2 point deduction standards: Not wearing a seatbelt: 100-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: 100-point deduction. Not using the turn signal (including when starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, or parking); using the turn signal for less than three seconds (note this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off the turn signal or using it incorrectly: 10-point deduction. Stalling once: 10-point deduction. Reverse parking: Not following the designated route sequence: 100-point deduction. Vehicle body crossing the line: 100-point deduction. Failing to park properly: 100-point deduction. Before reversing, if both front wheels do not pass the control line: 100-point deduction. Exceeding the 210-second time limit: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Slope parking and starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm: 10-point deduction. After stopping, if starting takes more than 30 seconds: 100-point deduction. Wheels crossing the road edge line while driving: 100-point deduction. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the vehicle body is more than 50 cm from the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not tightening the parking brake after stopping: 10-point deduction each time. After stopping, if the vehicle body is more than 30 cm but not exceeding 50 cm from the road edge line: 10-point deduction each time. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: 5-point deduction each time. Parallel parking: After parking, if the vehicle body crosses the line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when parking: 10-point deduction. Exceeding the 90-second time limit: 100-point deduction. Touching the parking space edge line while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Wheels touching the lane edge line while driving: 10-point deduction each time. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. 90-degree turn: Wheels crossing the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when turning, or not turning off the turn signal after turning: 10-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Curve driving: Wheels crossing the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 100-point deduction. Not driving in second gear or higher: 5-point deduction.

Backing up over the line will definitely result in point deduction. I learned this the hard way during my driving school training. The instructor said that during the test, if any wheel touches the solid line while reversing into or exiting the parking space, the monitoring system will immediately judge it as a failure without any chance for explanation. When practicing, I was extra careful—I always checked the rearview mirror to confirm the tire position before exiting, preferring to go slower rather than risk crossing the line. Actually, crossing the line mostly happens because the steering wheel is turned too early or the speed isn’t controlled properly, especially when the rear of the car is still inside the space and you rush to turn. It’s advisable to have the instructor guide you on key reference points during practice to find the right timing for steering and avoid crossing the line. Additionally, the markings on the test site might differ from those in the training area, so familiarizing yourself with them beforehand is also crucial.

Will the traffic police check modified front splitters and side skirts?

If you file the modification with the vehicle management office, the traffic police will not check it. Installing front splitters and side skirts is considered an exterior modification. Here is some additional information: 1. Reasons for modification: Many car modification enthusiasts like to install front splitters and side skirts on their cars. After installation, the car's chassis appears lower, and it also enhances the vehicle's appearance. Some front splitters can even serve an aerodynamic function, as can some side skirts. 2. Preventing damage: When installing front splitters and side skirts, it is essential to go to a professional shop to ensure they are securely installed. If you have installed these modifications, you must be cautious when driving on rough, unpaved roads. Some car owners even opt for carbon fiber front splitters, which can be costly to replace if damaged. Front splitters are highly susceptible to damage during daily use, so careful consideration is necessary before installation.

Why is there no sound when playing music despite the Bluetooth being connected in the Buick Excelle?

The Buick Excelle's Bluetooth is connected but there is no sound when playing music due to the multimedia volume on the phone not being turned on, incompatibility between the music playback program and certain car models' pairing codes, the car's Bluetooth multimedia music not being enabled, or signal interference from the Bluetooth function. If the volume on the car's navigation system or the phone is not turned on, there will be no sound from the car's Bluetooth. Simply increase the volume on both devices. Some phones (such as the iPhone) have music playback programs that are incompatible with certain car models' pairing codes, allowing only phone calls but not music playback. It is recommended to switch the Bluetooth playback frequency band to resolve this issue. The car's Bluetooth multimedia music is not enabled. Locate the multimedia option on the screen, enter it, and select Bluetooth for music playback. The media audio on the phone is not turned off, causing signal interference with the Bluetooth function. Go to the phone's Bluetooth settings, disable the media audio, and keep the phone audio enabled.

When driving, should I press the clutch or the brake to slow down?

When driving, to slow down, first gently press the brake to reduce speed, then press the clutch when the engine RPM drops below 1000 to prevent the car from stalling. Below are some related introductions about slowing down: 1. Emergency braking: In emergency situations where the vehicle needs to be stopped in the shortest distance and time, do not consider unnecessary factors like engine braking. Simply press both the clutch and brake pedals to the floor simultaneously. This cuts off all engine power while the vehicle's ESP and ABS systems allow the wheels to move in a semi-rolling, semi-sliding state, maximizing traction to bring the vehicle to a stop. 2. Deceleration at 30km/h or below: You can directly press the clutch and use the brake to slow down. At lower speeds, the gear is also lower, and the engine's traction force is relatively strong. Therefore, pressing the clutch cuts off the power; if you don't release the clutch while slowing down, it might cause the engine to stall.

Where is the oil filter located on the Mercedes-Benz A180L?

The oil filter on the Mercedes-Benz A180L is located at the front left side of the engine. The oil filter, also known as the oil filter element, is responsible for filtering the oil to keep it clean, ensuring that the oil can provide sufficient lubrication to the engine. It also affects the oil change interval. If not replaced for a long time, it can accelerate engine wear. Impact of the oil filter on the car: If the oil filter is not replaced for an extended period, the flow performance of the lubricating oil will significantly decrease, restricting the flow of the engine oil pump. Over time, this can lead to excessive wear of internal engine components. Therefore, the oil filter must be replaced regularly based on actual conditions. Precautions for replacing the oil filter: Using low-quality oil or pairing high-quality oil with a low-quality oil filter is a mistake. When changing the oil, the oil filter must also be replaced. To distinguish between genuine and counterfeit oil filters, a comprehensive assessment should be made based on the housing, filter element, and filter paper.
