How many days to learn Subject 3?

[MargaretFitz]

Subject 3 generally takes different durations depending on the learner's progress. Those with strong learning abilities may need approximately 2-4 days, typically requiring 10-15 driving practice sessions. Slower learners might need around 7 days. Subject 3 includes the road driving skills test and the safety & civilized driving knowledge test, which are part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. Relevant details about the driving test are as follows: Subject 1: A test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. The question bank structure and basic question types are formulated by the Ministry of Public Security, while provincial traffic management departments establish localized question banks based on regional conditions. Subject 2: The field driving skills test, including items like reverse parking, slope parking and starting, right-angle turns, curve driving, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject 2 consists of nine mandatory tests: reverse parking, right-angle turns, parallel parking, tunnel driving, parking for toll cards, curve driving, narrow-road U-turns, emergency stops, and slope parking and starting. Subject 3: The road driving skills test, covering basic items such as pre-driving checks (walking counterclockwise around the vehicle, fastening seat belts, activating left turn signals, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, honking), starting, straight-line driving, lane changing, passing intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, and nighttime driving. Subject 4: Safety and civilized driving knowledge, testing related concepts of safe and civilized driving.

I remember when I was learning to drive, the third subject (road test) took me about ten days to master, mainly because I had never touched a steering wheel before and was all thumbs when first hitting the road. The driving school scheduled two hours of practice daily, covering lane changes, parking, roundabouts, and other maneuvers—it took me six or seven sessions before daring to take the test. The instructor emphasized practicing hand signals and checking mirrors frequently, calling it crucial for accident prevention. Personally, I recommend finding a familiar companion for extra practice, especially during night or rainy drives, as it quickly boosts confidence. Don’t rush the learning process—everyone’s foundation differs; my friend with prior experience needed just five days, but safety always comes first. Though it took me longer, my driving became much steadier after passing, and looking back, it was totally worth it.

During my driving lessons, I encountered Subject 3 (Road Test). Generally, driving schools recommend practicing for about 5-7 days, but this isn't a strict rule. The key factors are your practice frequency and environment. If you can spare one or two hours daily to focus on practical road exercises—such as starting, turning, and handling unexpected situations—those with a good foundation can master it in three to four days. Weather and teaching methods also affect progress; for example, rainy days make roads slippery, so you need to take it slower. I focused on details like blind-spot checks in mirrors and turn signal habits, practicing repeatedly before passing the test. On average, most people can manage within a week, but don't push yourself too hard—rest well to maintain a steady mindset.

It took me about ten days to complete Subject 3 in driving school, as I'm a bit older and my physical coordination and reactions aren't as agile. When I first started driving, I tended to get nervous, often steering in the wrong direction or braking too hard. The instructor advised more practice to build steadiness. The driving school typically schedules around eight lessons, each focusing on a specific maneuver, like parking alignment or overtaking judgment, requiring patient accumulation of skills. I believe the duration isn't as important as ensuring each practice session thoroughly covers the process. Adding extra review sessions in the last two days can boost efficiency. The key is not to rush progress, especially for beginners—safety is more important than anything else.
