Are There Any Tips for the Curve Driving Test in Subject 2?

Here are the tips for the curve driving test in Subject 2, using the left entrance as an example: 1. Before entering the curve driving lane, pay attention to the position of the front of the car and try to align it with the center of the lane; 2. When the right 1/3 of the car's front intersects with the right edge of the lane, it means the front of the car has entered the curve lane. At this point, observe the left front corner of the car; 3. When the left front corner of the car coincides with the right edge of the lane (shorter individuals may need to slightly exceed the edge, while taller individuals do not need to press against the edge), turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left, keeping the left front corner of the car aligned with the right edge of the lane; 4. When the left front corner of the car coincides with the left edge of the lane, return the steering wheel to the center; 5. When the right front corner of the car coincides with the left edge of the lane, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right, keeping the right front corner of the car aligned with the left edge of the lane; 6. As you approach the exit of the curve driving section, when the front of the car is aligned with the center of the lane, gradually return the steering wheel to the center. Check the side mirrors to ensure the wheels are parallel with the lane edges, then fully straighten the steering wheel and exit the curve driving test lane.

Last month I just passed the Subject 2 test, and there are definitely techniques for curve driving. I practiced for several days before getting the hang of it. The key is to keep the speed very low, steadily hovering between 15 to 20 km/h—going too fast can easily make you cross the boundary line. Don’t focus on the front of the car; instead, look at the distant turning point of the curve and let your body naturally follow the path. The steering wheel should be turned slightly with gentle adjustments—no sudden or sharp turns. I usually use the windshield wiper as a reference point; once it aligns with the roadside line, I turn the wheel gently. Mindset is also crucial. When I feel nervous, I take a few deep breaths and treat it like a regular practice session. With enough practice, it becomes a conditioned reflex, and I passed the test on my first try. Safety comes first. Simulate the test scenario multiple times, and don’t obsess over the cones or fear crossing the line—this helps reduce mistakes.

I've taught many students for the Subject 2 test, and the technique for curve driving is actually simple and practical. First, control the speed within the low range, moving forward steadily without going too fast; keep your gaze long and focused on the endpoint direction of the turn; the steering wheel operation should be gentle and continuous, with small turns. During practice, you can find some fixed reference points, such as aligning the corner of the hood with the outer edge line. Coordinate the clutch and throttle to prevent the car from stalling or losing control. Maintain a calm mindset during the test, don't panic, treat it as just another practice session at the driving school. More driving and practice will help develop a feel for the car, which is also beneficial for everyday driving safety.

Back when I was taking my driving test, the curve driving section really gave me a hard time. Later I figured out some tricks: keep the speed slow, don't exceed 20 km/h; focus your gaze on the distant turning point; make slight steering adjustments without overcorrecting. During practice, I used the wiper position as a reference - start turning when it approaches the edge. Don't get nervous during the test, staying calm makes it manageable. After mastering these, making turns on actual roads became much smoother. Safety is key - while crossing lines just means point deductions, avoiding accidents is crucial in real driving. With more practice, you'll naturally develop better vehicle control.
