Can Peripheral Vision Be Used to Check Gears in Subject Three?
2 Answers
Peripheral vision can be used to check gears in Subject Three, as long as you don't stare at them for too long. Here are the relevant details: 1. Subject Three: Subject Three includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. It is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed. 2. Manual Transmission Cars: These are cars that use a manual gear-shifting mechanical transmission (also known as manual transmission, MT) to adjust speed. This means you need to manually move the gear lever to change the gear engagement position inside the transmission, altering the gear ratio to achieve speed changes. The gear lever can only be moved when the clutch is depressed.
During the driving test (Subject 3), I recommend avoiding using peripheral vision to check the gear position as it distracts your view and increases accident risks. When driving, keep your eyes on the road ahead—just like you wouldn't stare at your chopsticks while eating. With enough practice, gear shifting becomes muscle memory. When I first learned to drive, I also had the habit of glancing at the gears and was reminded by the examiner with point deductions. After driving more frequently, I naturally adapted. Remember, during the test, focus on the windshield—safety first—don't lose points over minor habits. Find an empty space to practice gear shifting until your hand automatically finds the right position for smooth transitions. Developing good habits makes daily driving smoother, ensuring confidence during night drives or sharp turns while enhancing overall safety awareness.
