How to Avoid Crossing the Line in Subject 2?

[DiZoey]

When navigating an S-curve, there's a handy technique summarized as "left point aligns with right line, right point aligns with left line." Here, the left and right points refer to the top corners of the car's front. This means when turning in a particular direction, you should use the corresponding top corner to follow the opposite side's road edge line. Below is some information about Subject 2: 1. Definition: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination, specifically referring to the field driving skills test. 2. Objective: To master the basic essentials of driving operations and acquire fundamental vehicle control skills; to proficiently grasp the basic methods of field and road driving within the test area, enabling the reasonable use of vehicle controls and correct management of the vehicle's spatial position, as well as accurately controlling the vehicle's position, speed, and path.

When I was taking my driving test, the most frustrating issue was crossing the lines. Later, I figured out two key points: speed control and timing. The clutch must be pressed steadily, especially during reverse parking and parallel parking—just a slight increase in speed can easily lead to loss of control and crossing the line. Remember to move slowly at the reference points the instructor mentioned, such as turning the wheel back when you see the corner of the parking space during reverse parking, or steering immediately when the rearview mirror passes the solid line during hill starts. Keep your sitting position fixed and avoid unnecessary movements, as this can cause misalignment with reference points. Also, don’t wait until the car body is almost touching the line to adjust—correct the direction in advance. For practice, I recommend placing tape along the edges of the training area to simulate the lines; it’s highly effective for developing a feel for the car. During the test, deep breaths and staying relaxed are crucial, as nervousness can lead to sudden steering and crossing the lines.

It's particularly important to pay attention to the rearview mirror and the front corner of the car. When parallel parking, ensure the rear wheels maintain a two-finger width distance from the side line. Keep the steering wheel adjustments small—half a turn is sufficient, as large turns can easily cause the car to cross the line. Before starting each maneuver, position the car correctly with the body 30 centimeters away from the side line for safety. During hill starts, focus on the front bumper's position; aligning the wiper's raised point with the side line helps avoid crossing it. For right-angle turns, signal in advance and fully turn the steering wheel as soon as the car's front covers the transverse line ahead, while also monitoring the rear wheel's path in the rearview mirror. Having a friend observe and immediately alert you to any line-crossing during practice can significantly improve results.

Speed control is the core trick to avoid crossing lines. When practicing, I found that as long as the speed is kept steady below 5km/h during reverse parking, you basically won't cross the lines. Don't turn the steering wheel all the way; leaving half a turn for fine adjustments is the safest. Checking the rearview mirror should be quick and accurate, focusing on the distance change between the rear wheel and the sideline. The seat height and rearview mirror angle must be adjusted consistently each time; otherwise, the reference points will be off. For curve driving, using the left front of the car to press against the right line is the most stable method. Practice the feeling of turning the wheel in the opposite direction while looking at the rearview mirror to build muscle memory. Remember, the test car's steering is more sensitive than the practice car's, so turn and return the wheel gently.

Avoiding boundary lines starts with proper seating posture. Adjust the seat so your chest is one fist's distance from the steering wheel, and set the rearview mirrors to clearly see the rear wheel positions. When reversing into the parking space, don't turn the steering wheel too sharply on the first move - seeing the corner and turning back half a circle leaves room for adjustment. Before ascending the slope, align with the raised dots on the wipers to maintain a parallel 30cm distance. For 90-degree turns, signal 30cm before the front enters the turn, and it's safest to steer only after the front door handle passes the corner line. During practice, use chalk to mark standard lines in the training area, and roll down windows to observe actual wheel positions to verify judgment. Wearing flat shoes during the test helps better feel the clutch vibration point, and maintaining stable speed prevents boundary line violations.
