How many points are deducted for stopping midway during an S-curve?

Stopping midway during an S-curve deducts 5 points. Below is the relevant information: 1. Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It refers to the field driving skills test, and the test items for small cars C1 and C2 include five mandatory tests: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and curve driving (commonly known as the S-curve). 2. Teaching objectives: Master the basic driving operation essentials and possess the fundamental ability to control the vehicle; proficiently master the basic methods of field and on-site road driving, possess the ability to reasonably use vehicle control components and correctly control the spatial position of the vehicle, and be able to accurately control the vehicle's driving position, speed, and route.
During the driving school's Subject 2 test, I asked my instructor about stopping midway in the S-curve and learned that each stop directly deducts 10 points. This is because the S-curve assesses continuous turning and control skills; stopping midway indicates unstable driving, which could easily lead to accidents on actual roads. For example, if I stop too abruptly, it might cause skidding or rear-end collision risks. The test rules allocate a total of 100 points, and failing occurs if 20 points are deducted. As one of the key test items, the S-curve's point deductions should not be underestimated. I recommend focusing on clutch control and line of sight during practice, maintaining steady speed, and simulating test scenarios frequently. If stopping occurs, adjust immediately without hesitation, but try to avoid a complete halt by transitioning slowly. Safety first—good habits start from the test, which not only helps pass Subject 2 but also enhances real-world driving skills.
