How Many Times to Use Turn Signals in Subject 2 Driving Test?

[EverlyFitz]

There are a total of 6 instances where turn signals are required in Subject 2: When starting the vehicle, turn on the left turn signal; When starting on a slope, turn on the left turn signal; During parallel parking, turn on the right turn signal when the vehicle passes the parking spot and stops 30 cm from the curb before reversing; Before shifting into reverse gear for parallel parking, turn on the left turn signal because the steering wheel will be turned fully to the right during reversing, causing the front of the car to shift left; Before exiting the parking spot during parallel parking, shift into drive gear and turn on the left turn signal, then turn it off promptly after exiting; When entering the right-angle turn area, turn on the left turn signal and turn it off promptly after completing the turn. Penalties for incorrect turn signal usage are as follows: Failure to use or incorrect use of turn signals before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. Using the turn signal for less than 3 seconds before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. Subject 2 has a full score of 100 points, with criteria for failure, 20-point deduction, 10-point deduction, and 5-point deduction.

Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. For large vehicles (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2), the test includes: pole test, slope parking and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, limited-width gate crossing, continuous obstacle crossing, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
