Can You Drive in Second Gear During Subject Three?
1 Answers
You can drive in second gear during Subject Three. Here are the specific details: 1. Reason: There are two segments of straight-line driving. One segment occurs after completing the gear shifting (acceleration and deceleration), during which you must drive in third gear. Except for gear shifting and turning, you must use third gear in all other situations. This is because the total distance driven in first and second gears combined during Subject Three cannot exceed 500 meters. Specifically, you cannot drive continuously in first gear for more than 100 meters or in second gear for more than 200 meters. Therefore, third gear is necessary, maintaining a speed of around 35 km/h. However, during straight-line driving, you must accelerate to 50 km/h for at least two seconds. After completing the gear shifting segment, there are no special requirements for the subsequent straight-line driving segment. 2. Subject Three Test Content: Preparation before starting, simulated lighting test, starting, straight-line driving, gear shifting operation, lane changing, pulling over, driving straight through intersections, left turns at intersections, right turns at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving.
