How many items are tested in Driving License Test Subject 3?
2 Answers
According to the provisions of Order No. 139 of the Ministry of Public Security, the C1 Subject 3 test consists of a total of 16 items, with a minimum distance of at least three kilometers. The sixteen items are: vehicle preparation, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making a U-turn, and night driving. The order of the items varies from test site to test site. The general test process is: vehicle preparation → simulated night lighting test → starting → 100-meter gear shifting → meeting oncoming vehicles → changing lanes → driving in a straight line → making a U-turn → passing through school zones → passing through bus stops → overtaking → pulling over.
During my driving test for Subject 3, there were a total of 16 items to complete. Before starting, I had to turn on the turn signal, check the dashboard, and ensure the vehicle moved smoothly. Then, the straight-line driving tested my ability to control the steering wheel steadily. When changing lanes, I had to observe the rearview mirror in advance and change lanes safely. The parallel parking position had to be precise, with the wheels no more than 30 centimeters from the curb. At intersections, I had to slow down and pay attention to traffic lights and pedestrians. At crosswalks, I had to actively yield to pedestrians, and in school zones, I had to drive at a limited speed. Near bus stops, I had to be prepared for sudden stops. When overtaking, I had to decisively signal and accelerate, while maintaining a safe distance when meeting other vehicles. When making a U-turn, I had to pay attention to road conditions for safety. For the night test, I also had to use the lights correctly. The examiner scored in real-time throughout the process, and any small mistake could result in points being deducted. A total score of 90 out of 100 was required to pass. I think practicing road test simulations regularly is very important, especially focusing on improving my weaknesses, like my constant worry about parking inaccurately.
