Does signing mean passing the Subject 2 driving test?

Signing on the Subject 2 test score sheet does not necessarily mean passing. Regardless of whether the Subject 2 test is passed or not, the examinee must sign the score sheet for confirmation. Article 46 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses' stipulates: The score sheet for each subject must be signed by both the applicant and the examiner. Without signatures, the motor vehicle driving license cannot be issued. Regulations vary across different regions in China. In some areas, signing is required on the score sheet regardless of passing or failing. In others, signing is only required for those who pass, while in some places, only those who fail need to sign. The score sheet will clearly indicate the results. For small vehicles, a score of 80 or above is considered passing, while for large vehicles, 90 or above is required. There is no paper score sheet for Subject 2, as driving license tests are gradually transitioning to paperless exams. The content of the Subject 2 test involves selecting the corresponding test site and vehicle based on the applied driving license type. Under the supervision of the examiner, the applicant must independently complete the driving operations according to the specified test route, operational standards, and instructions. Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. It refers to the field driving skills test. For small vehicles (C1, C2), the test includes five mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves. The details are as follows: Reversing into a garage: Correctly judge the vehicle's reversing trajectory and maneuver the vehicle to complete reversing into the garage. Parallel parking: Maneuver the vehicle to correctly park in a roadside parking space on the right side of the road. Stopping and starting on a slope: Accurately judge the stopping position; coordinate the use of the accelerator pedal, parking brake, and clutch for a smooth start. Driving through curves: Maneuver the steering device to control the vehicle while driving through curves. Turning at a right angle: Correctly operate the steering device and accurately judge the difference between the inner and outer wheels while turning. Subject 2 penalty details: Reversing into a garage: Vehicle body crossing the line: deduct 100 points; Failing to reverse into the garage: deduct 100 points; Before reversing, if both front wheels do not cross the control line: deduct 100 points; Exceeding the time limit for the task: deduct 100 points; Stopping during the task: deduct 5 points each time. Parallel parking: Vehicle body crossing the line after parking: deduct 100 points; Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when exiting: deduct 100 points; Exceeding the time limit for the task: deduct 100 points; Vehicle body touching the parking space line during movement: deduct 10 points each time; Wheels touching the road edge line or parking space line during movement: deduct 10 points each time; Stopping during the task: deduct 5 points each time. Driving through curves: Wheels touching the road edge line: deduct 100 points; Stopping during the task: deduct 5 points each time. Turning at a right angle: Vehicle touching the road edge line: deduct 100 points; Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal while turning: deduct 10 points.

I just passed the Subject 2 test, and signing is indeed a crucial step. After completing the test items, the examiner will inform you whether you passed or not, then give you a score sheet to sign for confirmation. This isn't just a formality—your signature serves as proof that you personally accept the result. If you forget to sign, your score might be invalidated, and you'll have to retake the test. Don't rush to leave after the exam; make sure to sign and take a photo of the document for your records, as system errors can occur in some locations. Keep the signed receipt safe, as you'll need it to register for Subject 3 later. That said, your performance during the test is what truly matters—don't rely solely on signing to get by. A single mistake during reverse parking or parallel parking could lead to failure. A friend of mine once forgot to sign, had his score voided, and was delayed for months. Remember, signing is part of the confirmation process, but obtaining a driver's license requires step-by-step progress—once you pass Subject 2, start preparing for the road test immediately.

Signing after passing the Subject 2 test is mandatory, and I've seen this many times. Once you finish the test and pass, the examiner will ask you to sign the score sheet to officially record your results. The purpose of the signature is to prevent others from taking the test on your behalf and to ensure the authenticity of your score. After signing, don’t let your guard down—keep that document safe, as it will be checked when you go to the DMV for Subject 3. If you don’t sign, your score will be invalid, and you’ll have to retake the entire Subject 2, wasting both time and money. Performing well during the test is key, so practice reversing and hill starts thoroughly to avoid point deductions. Subject 2 is just the beginning, and I advise test-takers not to rush off after passing—wait until you’ve signed before celebrating. Although signing seems minor, it affects your overall progress, so make sure to check whether you’ve passed before signing.

After passing Subject 2 of the driving test, you need to sign for confirmation. I've been through this - after successfully completing the reverse parking test, the examiner handed me a paper to sign. Signing is a standard procedure to validate your test results. If you don't sign, your score might not be recognized. After signing, you'll get a certificate to use for Subject 3 later. Don't just focus on signing during the test - the key is to demonstrate solid driving skills, like avoiding stalling during hill starts. Anyway, once I signed, everything was fine. The process was quite straightforward.
