Does failing to start the engine in Subject 3 result in point deduction?
1 Answers
The "Motor Vehicle Driver Training Teaching and Examination Syllabus" stipulates that stalling once due to improper operation in Subject 3 results in a 10-point deduction. If these 10 points are deducted, it means no further mistakes leading to point deductions are allowed in the subsequent procedures. If points had already been deducted before stalling, this stall would mean failing the examination. After stalling, to start: press the brake, slowly release the clutch until you feel the car body shaking, with a sense of tension as if an arrow is on the bowstring, then slowly release the brake, stabilize the left foot on the clutch. When releasing the brake, the car should move forward instead of rolling backward. The intensity of the car body shaking is something you need to feel during practice. Releasing the brake too early will result in insufficient force, causing the car to roll, while not releasing the brake when the shaking is very intense can easily lead to stalling.
