You can take the Subject 3 driving test after practicing for 3 days. Here are the reasons why the practice time for Subject 3 is relatively short: 1. Basic driving skills are already learned during Subject 2: Except for not needing to use the accelerator, all other driving skills are taught in Subject 2. In other words, passing Subject 2 means you already know how to drive. Since so much time and effort were spent on Subject 2, instructors are reluctant to spend too much time on Subject 3. 2. High fuel consumption for beginners: Vehicles driving at low speeds consume more fuel than those driving faster and at a steady speed, and frequent gear shifting further increases fuel consumption. 3. Beginners are prone to running red lights: During Subject 3 practice, the instructor can only sit in the passenger seat and watch closely. Even if the practice route is remote, there are still many traffic lights. Beginners learning Subject 3 for the first time may easily ignore traffic lights while trying to complete tasks like 3+4 gear shifting, straight-line driving, lane changing, and overtaking. They might even accidentally scrape against nearby vehicles. 4. Frequent gear shifting damages the transmission: Especially when practicing with a manual transmission car, performing 3+4 gear shifting requires frequent gear changes. Beginners often use excessive force when shifting, which can cause significant damage to the transmission. For example, when practicing Subject 3, some learners might push the gear lever too hard out of fear of failing to shift, which can harm the transmission.
