Hey, I just got my driver's license not long ago, and I still remember how nervous I was during the road test—my palms were sweating. The examiner deducted 5 points because I didn't slow down during an oncoming vehicle situation, and he scolded me sternly, saying it was too dangerous. The driving test is scored out of 100 points, with minor mistakes costing 5 points and major ones like occupying the opposite lane resulting in a 10-point deduction. If you accumulate 12 points, you're done. During the test, I failed to check the blind spot while passing another car and almost scraped the curb. Later, while practicing, I made sure to slow down in narrow sections and honk to alert oncoming drivers. Normally, traffic violations can also get you pulled over by the police. In China, improper passing carries a penalty of 3 demerit points plus a fine—for example, exceeding 30 km/h in urban areas will get you fined. Safety comes first—don't let mistakes hold you back.
