Can I Practice Driving Every Day for Subject Two?

You can practice driving every day for Subject Two. Below are relevant introductions about Subject Two: 1. Purpose of Subject Two Test: The Subject Two test mainly examines the examinee's ability to control the car in a semi-clutch state and parking ability. The requirements for examinees are mainly technical skills and mindset, as long as there are no major issues during regular training. It also assesses the trainee's sense of direction. 2. Content of Subject Two Test: The test items for cars C1 and C2 include five compulsory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (some regions also have a sixth item: high-speed card collection).
My driving instructor said practicing for Subject 2 every day is actually quite efficient, but it really depends on the driving school's arrangements. Some schools assign seven or eight students to take turns practicing in one car, so each person only gets half an hour behind the wheel per day. My situation was better—as long as I booked in advance, I could go every day. Before the test, I practiced right-angle turns and reverse parking for five consecutive days, which built muscle memory and made the test go very smoothly. However, it's important to balance work and rest. By the third day, my eyes were getting blurry from exhaustion, so I took half a day off to readjust. The key is to break down each exercise and practice them separately. Don’t stubbornly repeat mistakes—getting timely corrections from the instructor is much more effective.
Back when I was practicing for the second driving test as a student, I took advantage of the summer vacation to go to the driving school every day. It wasn't that the driving school didn't allow daily practice, but the instructor advised beginners not to practice for too long consecutively. During the first few days of getting familiar with the clutch, I practiced every day, but ended up with foot cramps and couldn't find the half-engagement point. Later, I switched to practicing every other day, reviewing key points through instructional videos on rest days, and found it much smoother when I got back behind the wheel. If you're short on time and want to cram, intensive practice for three days before the test can indeed be effective, but remember to apply sunscreen and bring plenty of water—training grounds in the peak of summer can be really grueling.
