Yes, if the shock absorbers are too soft, the car will shake up and down significantly. Here is the relevant information: 1. Car Suspension: The damping system of a car's suspension is similar to the shock absorbers on a mountain bike, with the same basic principle. The damping effect depends on the size of the damping force. A suspension with high damping (large damping force) is too stiff, providing strong support. When driving over bumpy roads like small mounds, the car won't experience significant rigid impacts, but it will feel slight bumps on small potholes. Conversely, a suspension with low damping (small damping force) is too soft, producing the opposite effect. Traditional suspensions adopt a design principle that balances both damping and support but cannot optimize both performances simultaneously. 2. Magic Carpet Suspension: This technology has obtained 20 patents, does not require electric drive, and does not add extra energy consumption. The new technology adds a progressive hydraulic buffer at both the upper and lower ends of each shock absorber, allowing the car to adjust its damping according to road conditions, ensuring comfort under different road conditions. The PHC adaptive hydraulic stabilization technology enables the suspension to switch to a low damping range on relatively smooth roads (minor bumps), greatly reducing the bumpy feeling. On severely bumpy roads (major bumps), the suspension can increase its damping force, effectively absorbing mechanical energy and avoiding discomfort caused by rigid impacts, achieving damping effects and thereby realizing the magic carpet effect.

Is a residence permit required for obtaining a driver's license in Anshan?

No temporary residence permit is required to obtain a driver's license in Anshan. Here are the specific regulations for obtaining a driver's license: 1. One-certificate nationwide application: With a resident ID card, one can directly apply for a small car driver's license (Class C) in any city across the country without submitting a residence permit or residence registration certificate, further facilitating the public to take exams and obtain licenses nearby and independently. For Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan residents working and living in mainland China, they can use their residence permits for Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan residents without submitting accommodation registration certificates or other proofs. 2. Cross-regional subject exams: Mainland residents with resident ID cards and Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan residents with their residence permits can directly apply to the local vehicle management office to change the exam location. After changing the exam location, they can directly schedule the remaining subject exams at their current place of residence, with previously passed subject exam results remaining valid. After passing all subject exams, the driver's license can be directly obtained at the current exam location.

What is the difference between 94W and 91V tires?

The biggest difference between 91V and 94V tires lies in their load capacity. The load index of a 91V tire is 615kg, while that of a 94V tire is 670kg. The number 91 represents the tire's load index, indicating that the maximum load capacity of this tire is 615kg. Introduction 1: Automobile tires are one of the crucial components of a vehicle. They directly contact the road surface and work together with the vehicle's suspension system to mitigate the impacts encountered during driving. They ensure good ride comfort and smooth driving performance, maintain excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, enhance the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities, and bear the weight of the vehicle. The important role that tires play in automobiles is increasingly being recognized. Introduction 2: Tires can be categorized into approximately 8 types based on vehicle classification: PC - Passenger Car tires, LT - Light Truck tires, TB - Truck and Bus tires, AG - Agricultural Vehicle tires, OTR - Off-the-Road tires (for construction vehicles), ID - Industrial Vehicle tires, AC - Aircraft tires, and MC - Motorcycle tires.

What is the minimum ground clearance of a car?

Generally, the minimum ground clearance of a sedan ranges between 110mm and 150mm, while that of an SUV ranges from 200mm to 250mm. Below are the specific details about car ground clearance: 1. Concept: Ground clearance refers to the distance between the ground and the rigid objects at the bottom of the vehicle. The ground clearance of a car varies depending on whether it is unloaded or loaded. Ground clearance is categorized into unloaded and loaded conditions, with the loaded ground clearance also known as the minimum ground clearance. This refers to the shortest distance between the lowest protruding part of the vehicle's chassis and the ground when the vehicle is parked horizontally under the rated full load condition. 2. Characteristics of clearance size: Ground clearance is related to the vehicle's load; the heavier the load, the smaller the ground clearance. Vehicles with smaller ground clearance have a lower center of gravity but poorer passability. Vehicles with larger ground clearance have better passability; higher ground clearance not only improves performance on gravel or mountainous roads but also helps prevent water from entering the exhaust pipe when crossing flooded roads and makes it easier to park on curbs or other parking spaces with height differences.

Can I take the Subject 4 exam with an expired ID card?

An expired ID card cannot be used for the exam. You can first apply for a temporary ID card and use it to take the exam. The Subject 4 exam consists of 50 questions, mainly in the form of case studies, images, and animations, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, the Subject 3 exam was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civics knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Because this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called the Subject 4 exam. Officially, there is no such term as Subject 4. If you fail Subject 4, you do not need to retake the previously passed subjects (Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3). You can schedule a retake on your own without paying additional fees. There are no scheduling restrictions, but the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete the exam within this period, the passed subject scores will become invalid.
