Do short individuals need a cushion for Subject 3 of the driving test?
2 Answers
Short individuals can use a cushion for Subject 3 of the driving test, depending on their personal comfort. Advantages of using a cushion: Using a cushion can increase the height while driving, allowing for better observation of the surrounding conditions and improving the pass rate for Subject 3 of the driving license test. Only after passing Subject 3 can one proceed to Subject 4. Introduction to Subject 3: The number of attempts for Subject 3 of the driving license test is limited to five. If all five attempts are used without passing Subject 3, the driving license test will be canceled, and the individual will not be able to retake the test. To obtain a driving license again, one must reapply for the entire process.
I'm not very tall, and when I was taking the driving test for Category 3, I often felt that the windshield blocked my view, making it hard to see road signs or the rearview mirror, which made me nervous. The instructor said that poor visibility could easily lead to problems like crossing the line during turns or hesitating when changing lanes, which would result in points deducted by the examiner and put the final score at risk. So before the test, I bought an ordinary sponge cushion for just twenty or thirty yuan, placed it on the seat to adjust the height, and after setting it up, driving became much smoother, and I passed the test on the first try. I recommend that shorter candidates prepare a cushion in advance and practice a few times—don’t wait until the last minute. Safety comes first, and it can also boost your confidence.
