There are 16 questions in the Subject 3 lighting test. The first test in Subject 3 is the lighting test, which many people think is very simple, but its simplicity can easily lead to carelessness and failure. The night test includes a lighting test, mainly focusing on what lights to use for overtaking, foggy days, meeting other vehicles, and passing through intersections. The mnemonic for the Subject 3 lighting test is: (1) Driving at night without streetlights and under poor lighting conditions; (high beam) (2) Meeting non-motorized vehicles on narrow roads at night; (low beam) (3) Following another vehicle closely in the same direction at night; (low beam) (4) Meeting motor vehicles at night; (low beam) (5) Passing over bridges and pedestrian crossings at night; (alternating between high and low beams) (6) Passing sharp curves and slopes at night; (alternating between high and low beams) (7) Passing through intersections without traffic signal control at night. (alternating between high and low beams)
When I took the third driving test, I was especially nervous about the lighting section. The instructor said that usually 5 to 7 random commands would be given, depending on the examiner. During my test, I had to perform 6 items, while a fellow examinee in the same car got 5 items. The content all simulated nighttime driving scenarios, such as starting with low beams, alternately switching between high and low beams when passing sharp curves, and turning on hazard lights for temporary parking. The most troublesome part I remember was the foggy weather operation, which required turning on both fog lights and hazard lights simultaneously. If you got 7 items, there might be an additional one like turning on high beams on an unlit narrow road, but the core was just repeating the same 5 or 6 items.
