Can You Shift Gears Repeatedly in Subject Two?

Shifting gears twice during the Subject Two exam will result in: a deduction of 100 points (if the gear is not engaged properly and shifted a second time). Parking and Hill Start Test Standards: Standard One: Failure to park at the designated spot results in a deduction of 100 points. If the vehicle's front bumper does not reach the control line after stopping, 100 points are deducted. Standard Two: If the vehicle rolls back more than 30 centimeters after stopping, 100 points are deducted; if it rolls back less than 30 centimeters, 10 points are deducted (originally 20 points). Failing to turn on the left turn signal when starting results in a deduction of 10 points. Standard Three: Driving over the solid edge line of the road results in a deduction of 100 points. If the front bumper does not reach the parking line after stopping, 10 points are deducted (originally 20 points).

Last year when I took my driver's license test, I failed the subject 2 (parking test) once. At that time, I didn't stabilize the car properly on the slope parking section, and the examiner directly judged it as a failure. But I didn't panic because I knew I could reschedule the test. The driving school instructor said each test item has 5 attempts, and if you fail, you just need to wait a few days to book again. However, each retest requires paying a fee, at least over 100 yuan. I believe the key lies in practice. Later, I went to the driving school every day to simulate the test, especially practicing parallel parking and reverse parking dozens of times more. Finally, I passed on the second attempt. Remember to get a good night's sleep before the test and don't be nervous. The examiner looks at your operational standards and stable mindset, not just one failure. With more attempts and accumulated experience, you'll definitely pass.

As someone who frequently interacts with trainees, I want to say that retaking Subject 2 is absolutely fine, but don't rely too much on the chances. The exam rules generally give you 5 attempts. If you fail once, you'll need to reschedule, with an interval of a few days or a week depending on the driving school's arrangement. The key is to practice more on the difficult sections, like right-angle turns or curve driving, which can easily go wrong and lead to failure. It's advisable to check the vehicle and get familiar with it the day before the test. During the exam, don't rush; take it slow and steady. If you use up all your attempts and still don't pass, you'll have to re-enroll in the entire course, which is quite troublesome. Staying calm and patient is crucial—don't let nervousness make you act recklessly.

Just signed up for driving school and heard that Subject 2 can be retaken up to 5 times, which really put my mind at ease. After all, it's normal for beginners to make mistakes. If I fail, I'll have to wait a few days before booking again. I'll practice the test items more and aim to pass on the next try.
