Stopping for more than 2 seconds during the reverse parking in Subject 2 deducts 5 points. Below is a detailed introduction about reverse parking in driving tests: Overview: Reverse parking has been a mandatory test item for obtaining a small car driver's license since 2013, mainly assessing the driver's ability to maneuver the vehicle in a confined space. Reverse parking is a key assessment point in the driver's test. It involves correctly reversing the vehicle into a parking space from both sides while in motion. Other details: The test area is 16 meters long and 6.83 meters wide. The parking space is 5.25 meters long and 2.31 meters wide. Failure to follow the designated route or sequence results in disqualification. Running over the lines or failing to park properly also leads to disqualification. Exceeding the 210-second time limit for completing the reverse parking results in disqualification. Stopping midway deducts 5 points each time.
In the subject two driving test, stopping for more than 2 seconds during reverse parking deducts 10 points. I remember I almost failed my driver's license test because of this. During practice at the test site, the instructor repeatedly emphasized acting quickly - if the car stops for over two seconds, the system detects it and deducts 10 points. The test has a total of 100 points, and losing 10 points is still passable if no other mistakes are made, but consecutive errors become risky. I believe this rule aims to develop quick decision-making skills, simulating real road conditions where you shouldn't block others. During regular practice, I recommend using a timer to ensure smooth parking movements without delay. Before the test, practice more on simulated courses to adapt to different vehicles' response speeds, as braking sensitivity varies across cars which could easily cause timeout. Ultimately, focusing on time control and developing instinctive reactions is most important.
