When practicing driving, Karina always sits in the passenger seat and patiently corrects Dong Qiangqiang's various mistakes. Dong Qiangqiang feels a headache every time he drives. But seeing Karina sitting in the passenger seat today made Dong Qiangqiang feel more at ease than ever before.
"Please show me your ID." Gute, who was sitting in the back row, suddenly spoke. Although he still used "you" to address Dong Qiangqiang, the sudden addition of the word "please" really made Dong Qiangqiang feel flattered for a moment. Feel.
Gut checked Dong Qiangqiang's passport over and over again. Dong Qiangqiang had heard from Karina before that the examiner would usually ask one or two technical questions before departure. Don't be nervous at this time. You must understand first before answering. The answer is not what you asked. The exam may end immediately.
He thought Gut was going to ask some tricky questions again, so he stared at the other person with all his attention. Unexpectedly, Gut returned his passport to him casually, then pointed to the two small lights on the roof of the passenger seat and said: "What if During the test, if Karina steps on the accelerator or brake, these two small lights will light up. If this happens, the road test will end immediately. Do you understand?"
Karina is a good and responsible coach, so these precautions have naturally been given to Dong Qiangqiang a long time ago. Dong Qiangqiang immediately nodded and said, "I understand."
"You can start." Gut said seriously with a straight face.
"Mr. Gut, please fasten the seat belt in the back seat." Dong Qiangqiang immediately suggested as soon as Gut finished speaking.
Starting from learning traffic rules, the first thing Karina taught Dong Qiangqiang was: the first step after getting in the car is always to check whether the driver, co-driver and everyone in the back seat have fastened their seat belts. If someone fails to fasten a seat belt and the driver starts the car, the test will be over immediately.
As soon as Dong Qiangqiang got in the car, he saw that Karina had fastened her seat belt, while Gut's seat belt was hanging casually on the back of the back seat.
Gut squinted his eyes and fastened his seat belt.
After confirming that the other party was fastened, Dong Qiangqiang calmly observed the dashboard and adjusted his seat, steering wheel, left and right rearview mirrors, and interior mirrors. He recited the inspection sequence silently in his mind, and after confirming that no steps were lost, he slowly turned the key and started the engine.
"Take a walk around the city first." Gut ordered.
"Copy that." Dong Qiangqiang said as he quickly glanced at Gut in the back row through the endoscope, and saw Gut's triangular eyes staring firmly at him. The two looked at each other in the interior mirror for a second, and Dong Qiangqiang quickly turned his attention to the left rearview mirror outside the car.
The rain seemed to be lighter at this time, but Dong Qiangqiang still turned on the wiper for safety.
Almost all cars in Germany have manual transmissions. Dong Qiangqiang also learned manual transmissions in China, so there is no pain in switching from automatic transmission to manual transmission.
He turned on the left turn signal, then turned to look at the left side of the car, and stared at the left rearview mirror carefully for a while. After confirming that there was no car or anyone on the left, he stepped on the clutch, shifted to 1st gear, slowly released the clutch, and gently He pressed the gas, released the handbrake, turned his head to the left and turned the steering wheel slightly to the left while looking back. The car slowly started, and he stepped on the clutch again, naturally shifting into 2nd gear. The whole action was completed in one go.
Generally speaking, different roads in urban areas have different speed limit standards. For example, urban roads have a speed limit of 50 km/h and some have a speed limit of 70 km/h. The highest speed limit in residential areas is 30 km/h. If you see a traffic calm zone sign, even if there are no people or animals in sight, it is best not to drive faster than 5 kilometers per hour. If you are seen speeding by the traffic police, you will inevitably get a ticket.
As soon as the car drove onto the road, Dong Qiangqiang immediately saw a speed limit sign of 30, and he immediately controlled the speed steadily at around 25.
After driving for almost seven or eight minutes, Gut in the back seat remained silent, neither giving any further instructions nor saying what was wrong with him. Just when Dong Qiangqiang was about to ask him whether he should pull over to check whether the oil level was sufficient, an out-of-control bicycle suddenly jumped out from the corner of a building on another street.
Because of the rain, Dong Qiangqiang kept his feet on the brake pads. The moment he saw the bicycle, he stepped on the brake pads to the bottom. PL was very proud of himself and kept the engine on, firmly planted on the ground.
The poncho and hat on the cyclist's head blocked his sight, and the road surface was somewhat sloped. The bicycle rushed toward the other end of the street despite the wind and rain.
Dong Qiangqiang accidentally completed the sudden braking test that is often tested in road tests. Seeing that the car had stopped, Dong Qiangqiang asked for instructions: "Mr. Gut, can I check the engine oil now?"
After hearing Gut's affirmative reply, Dong Qiangqiang turned off the engine and walked out of the car with an umbrella.
Gut bent down and jumped out of the car.
Dong Qiangqiang opened the front hood, took out the oil caliper, wiped it clean with a paper towel, put it back, and then took it out again. He saw oil stains just above the middle of the upper and lower lines of the oil dipstick. He immediately replied: "This car is currently There is enough engine oil.”
Gut glanced at him noncommittally: "Now leave the city and get on the highway."
Dong Qiangqiang was about to close the front hood of the car when the cell phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated wildly.
Was it his father who beat him? Dong Qiangqiang was excited. Just as he was about to reach for his phone, he suddenly remembered that the coach and examiner were still in the car. He hurriedly adjusted his position so that the front hood of the car completely blocked him, and then quickly took out his mobile phone, only to see an 86 area code coming into view.
Dong Qiangqiang felt ecstatic in his heart. Looking back, he saw that the post-86 generation was not Dong’s father’s mobile phone number that he was familiar with, but a series of numbers more or less 28. His heart skipped a beat, and he recognized that this was the area code of Chengdu.
It should be the call from Lu Wei's parents.
Dong Qiangqiang thought for a while, pressed the "Reject" button, and sat back in the car.
It takes about ten minutes to drive from the city to the nearest highway. You have to pass through several intersections or forks on the way, and some intersections have no traffic lights. Dong Qiangqiang had already taken this into consideration when he was practicing driving. He knew that there were pitfalls in driving priority at those intersections, and it was easy to make mistakes if he was not careful, so he memorized all the priority orders at each intersection. In my mind, I know who goes first and who goes last under various road conditions. Dong Qiangqiang felt a lot more relaxed when he thought that Gut's order fell exactly where he was most prepared.
He took a deep breath and turned the steering wheel calmly. The car drove off the main street, splashing water, and roared towards the highway.
