How many days does it usually take to practice S-curve driving?

2 days. Here are the relevant details: Introduction to S-curve: The S-curve, also known as serpentine driving, is relatively less difficult among the subjects in driving test module 2. However, many people still fail by crossing the line during S-curve driving. The main issue usually lies in not selecting proper reference points for steering wheel control. Key points to remember: For S-curve driving, remember: "When turning left, stay close to the right side and align left reference points with right lines; when turning right, stay close to the left side and align right reference points with left lines. If one side gets too close, steer towards the opposite direction to adjust." Additionally, pay attention to your speed - if you drive too fast, it will be difficult to make timely observations and adjustments, so maintain a slow and steady speed.
When I was helping my wife practice the S-curve, in the first two days she turned the steering wheel like she was shuffling mahjong tiles, and the wheels crossed the line three times. By the third day, I told her to focus on the distance between the line and the car door in the side mirror, slowly release the clutch to maintain a snail's pace, and surprisingly, she passed it in one go. Actually, if an average person practices for an hour a day, they can get the hang of it in three or four days. The key is to master the timing of turning the steering wheel—start turning when the corner of the side mirror is about to touch the white line, and be decisive when straightening the wheel. Don’t just memorize fixed points, as every car’s dimensions are different. When I drove my friend’s SUV, I found the reference points were completely different.
