How to Solve Car Sort Level 523 — Full Solution
- Clear the top-left pale-pink row, collect the embedded orange key, and let it remove the upper-right orange/yellow lock.
- Route the newly exposed upper-right red, cyan, pink, and orange band, then clear the first rows exposed by the two `1` gates.
- Clear the bottom-left mixed row, collect its red key, and drain the blue, white, pale-purple, and red row revealed by the lower-right lock.
- Keep the center free while receiver completions reduce both lower gates from `3` to `2`.
- Route cyan, dark-blue, pink, green, and purple bands one wall at a time; wait whenever occupancy reaches `14/16`.
- Advance each remaining `2` gate separately and drain the revealed green, purple, pale, and orange rows before releasing another full band.
- Finish the tall left pale-pink, cyan, dark-blue, pink, light-green, purple, and dark-green receivers from top to bottom.
- Clear the last right orange, white, blue, pale-purple, and burgundy rows; the final green pair remains on the center spine at `2/16`.
- Let that green pair enter the matching left receiver, watch the road empty, and confirm `Perfect!` followed by `LEVEL COMPLETED`.

Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The left bank contains two upper `1` gates and two lower `3` gates. The right bank has an upper row chained by an orange lock and a lower row chained by a red lock.
- Goal
- Clear the key-bearing edge rows to open both right locks, then reduce all four left gates without releasing opposing full bands into the spine together.
- Opening
- Clear the top-left pale-pink row to collect its orange key and reveal the upper-right chained row; clear the bottom-left mixed row for the red key and lower-right reveal.
- Danger Zone
- Opposing bands can push occupancy to `14/16` or `16/16` and consume the only central passage.
- Mechanics
- All four `1/1/3/3` overlays are completion gates, not tap sources. The orange key opens the upper orange/yellow lock, while the red key opens the lower red lock.
