Subject 2 requires a total of 26 class hours, including 2 hours for theoretical knowledge and 24 hours for practical driving. Only after completing all 26 hours can you schedule the Subject 2 driving test. If the required hours are not met, you are not allowed to take the test. The maximum number of class hours allowed per day is four. Here are some relevant details: 1. Each class hour lasts 60 minutes, with effective teaching time no less than 45 minutes. Additionally, each student's daily classroom learning and practical driving time cannot exceed 4 hours, meaning a maximum of 4 class hours per day. Any excess time will not be recorded by the system. 2. In most regions, the Subject 2 test includes five items: reversing into a parking space, stopping and starting on a slope, making a 90-degree turn, parallel parking, and driving through curves. All five items must be passed in one attempt to pass the test. 3. The test offers two chances: the initial test and a retest. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it immediately. If you fail the retest, you must wait 10 days before scheduling another test. 4. After the test, candidates should leave the testing area promptly and avoid disturbing others. They must also follow the staff's instructions to sign and confirm their test results at a designated location. Failure to sign will invalidate the results.

Let me tell you as an experienced driving instructor, the minimum for Subject 2 is 40 hours. You must complete 10 hours of theory before getting in the car. Difficult parts like reverse parking and parallel parking each take at least 8 hours, with the remaining time spent on hill starts and curves. The key is not just focusing on clocking hours—we've had students fail despite completing all 40 hours. I recommend practicing more on weekdays; weekends are overcrowded, and three hours then are less effective than one hour normally. Remember, your training card must be inserted into the instructor's car timer to count. Skipping classes and getting caught means starting over!

As a coach with eight years of experience training students, the requirements for Subject 2 are very clear: a minimum of 40 hours for C1 manual transmission and 38 hours for automatic transmission. The key points are strictly enforced—for example, you must complete a full 8 hours of reverse parking practice before you can schedule the test. Nowadays, the electronic check-in system can't be fooled. Last time, a student used my card to clock in for them, and it resulted in immediate suspension of training. My genuine advice: come at 6 AM for the early session to get three extra practice rounds, avoid the summer rush when students pile in, and remember that a retest requires an additional 6 hours of practice.

Haha, reminds me of the days when I was learning to drive and constantly outsmarting my instructor! I was scheduled for a total of 42 hours for Subject 2, but continuous practice actually works best. Parallel parking took the most time—I scraped the curb five times before finally passing. Here's a little secret: rainy days mean fewer training cars, so you can practice more. Bringing a pack of cigarettes for the instructor might buy you extra time, but you still need to clock in 40 hours on the electronic training card yourself. If you fail the test due to nerves, retaking it requires an additional 10 hours of practice—costly and time-consuming!

According to the 2023 driving test regulations, Subject 2 adopts a segmented training system: 8 hours for basic driving in the first stage, 16 hours for field projects in the second stage, and 16 hours for road driving in the third stage. Taking the Shenzhen test site as an example, 85% of the trainees pass within 45-50 hours, with the highest average retraining rate of 37% for hill-start parking. It is recommended to avoid the peak period of 18:00 when booking through the Driving Test Treasure APP, otherwise the actual practice time may be less than 70 minutes in 2 hours.
