Do You Need to Press Start for Subject 2 Driving Test?
2 Answers
Subject 2 driving test does not require you to press start; the system generally provides prompts. Below is an introduction to the content of the Subject 2 driving test: 1. Large vehicles: Large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks are tested on pile driving, hill start and stop, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing through narrow gates, passing continuous obstacles, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling. 2. Small vehicles: Small cars, small automatic transmission cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, and low-speed trucks are tested on reverse parking, hill start and stop, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turns.
During the second stage of the driving test, do you have to start the vehicle yourself? In my experience, yes, candidates usually need to initiate the operation. The test procedure goes like this: after you sit in the driver's seat, the examiner will take the passenger seat, briefly explain the rules or confirm your identity, and then tell you to start when ready. I've encountered this situation before—I was a bit nervous and waited for several minutes for a signal until the examiner laughed and asked why I hadn't started. So the standard practice is to fasten your seatbelt, adjust the mirrors, and once the examiner gives the green light, you start the engine and move off. This demonstrates your basic operational skills. If you delay too long, you might lose points or get a reminder, wasting time. Remember, the test isn't just about driving; it also includes pre-drive preparations. Taking initiative can leave a good impression on the examiner.
