How many subjects are required for an automatic transmission license test?
2 Answers
There are four subjects: Subject 1 is the theoretical test, Subject 2 is the road and site test, Subject 3 is the road driving skills test, and Subject 4 is the theoretical test. Only after completing all four test items can one obtain an automatic transmission driver's license and drive vehicles according to the permitted vehicle types. Article 35 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" specifies the passing standards for each subject: Subject 1: The full score is 100, and a score of 90 or above is required to pass. Subject 2: The full score is 100. For large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required to pass. For other permitted vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required to pass. Subject 3: The road driving skills and safe and civilized driving common sense tests each have a full score of 100, and a score of 90 or above in each is required to pass.
I just got my automatic transmission driver's license, and the whole process went quite smoothly with a total of four subjects to pass. Subject One was the theoretical test on traffic regulations and driving knowledge, which I easily passed after studying on an app for a few days. Subject Two was the field driving test. For automatic transmission, the hill start was removed, leaving only tasks like reverse parking and parallel parking, making the practice much less stressful. My instructor said I mastered this part in two months. Subject Three was the on-road driving test, where I had to pay attention to traffic signals and pedestrians. The examiner was quite strict, but I passed on my first try mainly through extensive practice. Subject Four was the safety and civilized driving theory, slightly harder than Subject One but with a lot of repeated questions in the database, so proper preparation made it manageable. The entire process took about two and a half months. After getting my license, driving on city roads became much easier. I highly recommend focusing on practical training.
