How many points are deducted for the car head sweeping the line in a right-angle turn?
2 Answers
In a right-angle turn, if the car head sweeps the line, 100 points will be deducted. If the car head crosses the line during a right-angle turn and is detected by electronic instruments, it results in an immediate failure, as this would mean a collision in real-life situations. Additionally, any wheel running over the road edge line or stopping midway during the turn also results in a deduction of 100 points. Below is a related introduction to the driving test: Subject 1: Examination on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. The structure of the question bank and basic question types are formulated by the Ministry of Public Security, while provincial public security traffic management departments establish their own question banks based on local conditions. Subject 2: Examination on field driving skills, including reverse parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, curve driving, and parallel parking. In cities like Shanghai, Subject 2 includes nine mandatory test items: reverse parking, right-angle turns, parallel parking, tunnel driving, stopping to take a card, curve driving, narrow road U-turns, emergency stops, and stopping and starting on a slope. Subject 3: Examination on road driving skills, including basic test items such as preparation before driving (walking around the car counterclockwise, fastening the seat belt, turning on the left turn signal, shifting gears, releasing the handbrake, and honking), starting, driving straight, changing lanes, passing intersections, pulling over, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. Subject 4: Examination on safe and civilized driving knowledge, covering related concepts of safe and civilized driving.
When I took my driving test before, I ran over the line during the right-angle turn. The instructor told me that such a line violation directly deducts 10 points. I barely passed that test because all other items were okay. Everyone should control the speed when practicing driving—don’t go too fast, otherwise, the steering wheel might not turn accurately, leading to line violations. Familiarize yourself with reference points, like turning the wheel when the rearview mirror aligns. It’s normal to feel nervous during the test; staying relaxed helps avoid mistakes—don’t let impatience cause a chain reaction. In real driving, crossing lines is even more dangerous, potentially scratching another car or resulting in fines and penalties. Developing precise operation habits is truly important. In short, losing points is minor; safety comes first. Practice a few more times, and you’ll master the technique.
