Can You Use the Brake to Control Speed in Subject Two Driving Test?

[McPeter]

In the Subject Two driving test, using the brake to control speed is permitted, given the current limitations of positioning technology: brief stops cannot be detected by the equipment. Although braking is allowed to regulate speed during the Subject Two test, it is generally recommended that learners use the clutch to control speed instead. This is because inexperienced learners may easily stall the car when using the brake. Below is relevant information about Subject Two: Teaching Objectives: Master the basic driving operation essentials and possess fundamental vehicle control abilities; proficiently grasp basic methods for on-site and in-field road driving, with the capability to reasonably use vehicle controls and correctly manage the vehicle's spatial position, accurately controlling the vehicle's position, speed, and route. Scope of Items: The test items for small vehicles C1 and C2 include five mandatory tests: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turn, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curve).
