Does a Higher Seat Position in Subject 2 Require Earlier Reference Points?

[OCamille]

In Subject 2 driving test, a higher seat position requires earlier reference points. When the seat is adjusted higher, each operation should be performed slightly earlier. Conversely, when the seat is lowered, the timing of operations can be slightly delayed. According to the "three-point alignment" principle, these points refer to the driver's eyes, a specific reference point on the vehicle, and the third point where the line connecting these two points projects onto the ground. If the seat height allows better visibility of blind spots beneath the front hood, when aligning the vehicle using a specific reference point, sticking to the original method might actually position the vehicle too far forward, risking crossing the line. Therefore, steering earlier becomes necessary. Conversely, if seated too low, following the original reference point method might leave the vehicle still far from the boundary line, requiring a slight delay in steering operations.
