Can You Take the Driving Test Subject 2 in Heavy Rain? The following are specific details about Subject 2: Light Vehicle Test Content: The test includes five mandatory items—reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curve). Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. Heavy Vehicle Test Content: The test includes pole parking, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing through a narrow gate, navigating continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, U-turns on narrow roads, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
On the day of my Subject 2 test, it was pouring rain. I thought it would be fine to proceed, but the heavy rain blurred my vision, and the wheels slipped during the reverse parking, almost hitting the pole. The test center staff didn’t call for a stop, which made me extremely nervous, and my performance completely fell apart. Later, my instructor told me that during heavy rain, the driving test center often assesses the weather conditions—if it’s too dangerous, they’ll cancel the test outright to avoid accidents. I recommend checking the weather forecast before your test and calling your instructor or the test center in advance to confirm conditions. If it’s really bad, just reschedule—safety is more important than rushing the test. Forcing it might lead to poor performance and unnecessary stress, which isn’t worth it.
