Conditions for Deduction of Points in Semi-Clutch Operation for Subject 3?
2 Answers
In the lane-changing project, if the semi-clutch operation is used for a long time, causing the car to vibrate, it will be detected by electronic monitoring and points will be deducted. Below is an introduction to the study hours for Subject 3: Introduction: The road safety driving test, commonly referred to as the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test, is a part of the motor vehicle driver examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed. Content: Preparation before starting, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears, changing lanes, parking by the side of the road, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night.
During my driving test for Subject 3, improper use of the semi-engaged clutch can easily lead to point deductions. Unstable clutch control during the starting phase, such as stalling the car for too long or exceeding 2500 RPM, will result in an immediate 10-point deduction from the examiner. Stalling is even more severe—each occurrence costs 10 points, and two consecutive stalls may lead to failing the entire test. Prolonged reliance on the semi-engaged clutch during turns at intersections or hill starts is considered a lack of control proficiency and will be penalized, as the test requires smooth starts and timely gear shifts. During practice, I noticed that releasing the clutch too quickly causes jerking, while doing it too slowly can overheat and wear out the clutch plate, affecting the car's condition. Therefore, it's essential to train coordinating the throttle to reach 1500 RPM before gradually releasing the clutch. Avoid lingering in semi-engaged clutch mode in congested areas—it not only risks heavy point deductions but is also dangerous during the test.
