Does the Front of the Car Touching the Line During Reverse Parking in Subject 2 Result in Deduction?

[Kayden]

Touching the line with the car body is considered as the car body crossing the line, which results in a 100-point deduction, making the test unsuccessful. Other actions that also result in a 100-point deduction include crossing the line with the car body, not completing the parking, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route, not following the sequence, and exceeding the time limit. The total score for both subjects is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction. The rules for the Subject 2 driving test for obtaining a motor vehicle driver's license state that any of the following actions will result in failure: stopping midway during the test, rolling back, not following the voice prompts, wheels crossing the line, or the car body touching the line. Many learners encounter the issue of touching the line during Subject 2 training, and the most common mistake leading to failure is "touching the line." The main reason for wheels touching the line is that learners fail to master the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be that the steering speed does not match the car's speed. Subject 2 Deduction Criteria: Not wearing a seatbelt: 100-point deduction. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: 100-point deduction. Not using turn signals (including starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, and parking); using turn signals for less than three seconds (note that this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off turn signals or using them incorrectly: 10-point deduction. Stalling once: 10-point deduction. Reverse Parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence: 100-point deduction. Car body crossing the line: 100-point deduction. Not completing the parking: 100-point deduction. Before reversing, not ensuring both front wheels pass the control line: 100-point deduction. Exceeding the 210-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction each time. Slope Parking and Starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm forward or backward: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm forward or backward: 10-point deduction. After stopping, if the starting time exceeds 30 seconds: 100-point deduction. Wheels touching the road edge line while driving: 100-point deduction. Rolling back more than 30 cm when starting: 100-point deduction. After stopping, if the car body is more than 50 cm from the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not tightening the parking brake after stopping: 10-point deduction per occurrence. After stopping, if the car body is more than 30 cm but less than 50 cm from the road edge line: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm when starting: 5-point deduction per occurrence. Parallel Parking: After parking, if the car body crosses the line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals when parking: 10-point deduction. Exceeding the 90-second time limit for the task: 100-point deduction. Car body touching the parking space edge line while driving: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Wheels touching the lane edge line while driving: 10-point deduction per occurrence. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction per occurrence. 90-Degree Turn: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals during the turn, or not turning off turn signals after the turn: 10-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 5-point deduction per occurrence. Curve Driving: Wheels touching the road edge line: 100-point deduction. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: 100-point deduction. Not driving in second gear or above: 5-point deduction.
