How many points are deducted for the car head sweeping the line during reverse parking?
2 Answers
Body sweeping the line means the body is out of line, deducting 100 points, resulting in failure of the current test. Crossing the line, not parking in the designated area, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, and exceeding the time limit also result in a 100-point deduction. The two subjects have a total score of 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction. The rules for the subject two driving license test state that stopping midway, rolling back, or not following voice prompts result in failure. Wheel or body touching the line also leads to failure. Many learners encounter line-touching issues during subject two learning, with 'touching the line' being the most common reason for failure. The main cause of wheel touching the line is learners not mastering the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the steering timing, another reason could be the steering speed not matching the vehicle speed. Subject two deduction standards: Not wearing a seatbelt: deduct 100 points. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: deduct 100 points. Not using turn signals (including starting, lane changing, overtaking, turning, and parking); turn signals not used for over three seconds (note this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off or incorrect use of turn signals: deduct 10 points. Stalling once: deduct 10 points. Reverse parking: Not following the prescribed route sequence: deduct 100 points. Body out of line: deduct 100 points. Not parking in the designated area: deduct 100 points. Before reversing, if both front wheels do not pass the control line: deduct 100 points. Exceeding 210 seconds to complete: deduct 100 points. Stopping for over 2 seconds midway: deduct 5 points each time. Slope fixed-point parking and starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not on the pole line and exceeds 50cm front or back: deduct 100 points. After stopping, if the front bumper is not on the pole line but does not exceed 50cm front or back: deduct 10 points. After stopping, if starting takes over 30 seconds: deduct 100 points. Wheels touching the road edge while driving: deduct 100 points. Rolling back over 30cm when starting: deduct 100 points. After stopping, if the body is over 50cm from the road edge: deduct 100 points. After parking, not tightening the parking brake: deduct 10 points each time. After stopping, if the body is over 30cm but not over 50cm from the road edge: deduct 10 points each time. Rolling back over 10cm but less than 30cm when starting: deduct 5 points each time. Parallel parking: After parking, if the body is out of line: deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals when parking: deduct 10 points. Exceeding 90 seconds to complete: deduct 100 points. Body touching the parking space line while driving: deduct 10 points each time. Wheels touching the lane line while driving: deduct 10 points each time. Stopping for over 2 seconds midway: deduct 5 points each time. 90-degree turn: Wheels touching the road edge: deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using turn signals during the turn, or not turning them off after: deduct 10 points. Stopping for over 2 seconds midway: deduct 5 points each time. Curve driving: Wheels touching the road edge: deduct 100 points. Stopping for over 2 seconds midway: deduct 100 points. Driving without the gear in second or above: deduct 5 points.
When I was taking my driving test, the instructor repeatedly emphasized the importance of parallel parking. Touching the line with the front of the car during the second part of the exam would result in an immediate 100-point deduction, leading to an instant failure—I remember this rule all too clearly. Even the slightest touch of the front bumper to the parking space line during the test would count as crossing the boundary, requiring a retake. This rule stems from real-world safety considerations—if you scrape the line while reversing into a parking spot in real life, you could easily hit nearby vehicles or obstacles. I used to make this mistake frequently when I first started, but I improved by practicing more, checking the rearview mirrors, and slowing down the vehicle speed. I recommend finding good reference points during practice, such as maintaining an even distance between the car body and the line, and not rushing. Getting a driver's license is no joke; only by mastering the basics can you drive safely and with confidence.
