How to Deduct Points for Hill Start and Fixed Point Stop?

[Brooke]

The following are the point deduction scenarios for hill start and fixed point stop: 1. Scenario one: During hill fixed point parking, if the wheel presses the right solid line, 100 points will be deducted. If the distance between the right side of the vehicle body and the right solid line is greater than 30 cm but less than 50 cm, 10 points will be deducted. If the distance exceeds 50 cm, 100 points will be deducted. 2. Scenario two: If the front bumper is not placed on the stop line, stopping too early or too late within 30 cm will result in a 10-point deduction. Stalling the engine once deducts 10 points. If the engine is restarted without shifting the gear lever to neutral after stalling, 100 points will be deducted. Rolling back within 30 cm deducts 10 points. Exceeding 30 cm results in a 100-point deduction.

Last time when I took the slope starting and stopping test in the driving license exam (Subject 2), I lost points due to imprecise parking. The test requires stopping at a designated position where the front bumper must not exceed the yellow line or dashed straight line on the ground. That time, I didn't control the distance well and got 20 points deducted as soon as the front wheels touched the line. There's also the issue of rolling back when starting: if the vehicle rolls back more than 30cm after releasing the brake, it's an immediate 100-point deduction, which almost means failing. I've experienced this during practice when I couldn't stabilize the clutch properly. Stalling is another serious mistake - the engine stopping results in point deduction, a common error I made during my early learning stage by releasing the clutch too quickly. Additionally, taking more than 30 seconds to start will also incur penalties, with the examiner timing nearby. I believe the key lies in practicing to find the half-clutch point - when the car body slightly vibrates before releasing the brake, using the parking brake to stabilize the vehicle. Slope starting isn't just a test item; it tests precise control ability. Getting the position wrong or rolling affects safety, and practicing more on uphill sections can improve skills. Fortunately, I summarized my experience after the test and finally passed.

The root causes of point deductions during hill starts lie in several common technical errors. Inaccurate stopping is a frequent issue: the vehicle's front bumper must stop within the designated zone, neither too far forward nor backward, with deviations resulting in 20-100 point deductions depending on severity. Exceeding rollback limits is more critical: sliding backward over 30cm incurs a 100-point penalty, often caused by releasing the brake too quickly or improper clutch control. Stalling is another deduction point—engine shutdown costs 100 points, stemming from poor coordination between clutch and throttle. Timeout penalties apply if the system counts over 30 seconds for starting. These deductions all originate from insufficient fundamental driving skills, such as unrefined clutch pedal sensitivity or improper brake release. During daily practice, I focus on repetitive hill-stop drills using parking brakes to minimize rollback and ensure fluid motions. Mastering these essentials helps avoid exam mistakes effortlessly—solid skills eliminate worries.

The main deduction points for hill start and stopping at a designated point are incorrect positioning, excessive rolling, stalling, and exceeding the time limit, each of which may deduct 20-100 points. Rolling over 30cm is the most severe, resulting in a 100-point deduction, as it simulates real risks like accidents caused by rolling backward on a slope. Stalling deductions emphasize control. Deductions aren't just for the test but also to ensure safe driving—practicing skills prevents future hazards. From a driving perspective, I think these deductions remind us of the importance of precise operations, and more practice can improve stability.
