Subject 2 offers a total of 5 exam attempts, with 2 remaining. It's crucial to maintain the right mindset and avoid giving up, as many students pass on their fifth try. Since previous attempts failed, learn from these lessons and identify the reasons for failure. Focus on understanding error-prone areas and sections that lack proficiency. Get back up where you fell—pay extra attention to details. Discuss any doubts with your instructor or peers to ensure the same mistakes aren't repeated. The issue might stem from overlooked details, such as incorrect seating posture, poor clutch control, or misaligned reference points—practice thoroughly to address these.

Last year, I passed the driving test (Subject 2) on my first attempt. I believe the key is diligent practice of basic maneuvers. For example, when reversing into a parking space, you need to repeatedly practice aligning reference points and checking the rearview mirrors to adjust the car body and avoid excessive deviation. Many people fail at this step because they turn the steering wheel too quickly or too slowly, causing the wheels to cross the line. For parallel parking, maintain a steady speed—not too fast—and straighten the wheels once the rear wheels are in the right position. Starting on a slope often leads to stalling; I recommend practicing the clutch half-point (semi-engagement) technique in advance and using the handbrake to prevent rolling back. Simulate test conditions frequently with your instructor to get used to the exam process and reduce stress. In short, practice at least three times a week, stay focused during the test, and avoid nervousness to ensure smooth and natural movements for a sure pass. Everyone has different skill levels, but persistence will eventually lead to getting your driver's license.

Which Gear is the Forward Gear in an Automatic Transmission?

In an automatic transmission, the D (Drive) gear is the forward gear. During normal driving, place the gear selector in the D position. The car will automatically shift between forward gears, allowing you to drive simply by engaging the D gear. The driver only needs to operate the accelerator and brake pedals. The P (Park) gear is the parking gear; engaging P after stopping the vehicle with the brake will lock the wheels, preventing the car from moving. The R (Reverse) gear is for reversing, while the N (Neutral) gear is typically used when waiting at a red light. The S (Sport) mode keeps the engine running at high speeds, enhancing the car's power. The L (Low) gear is for low-speed driving, usually employed when descending long slopes to maintain the car in the lowest gear. The M (Manual) gear is only available in automatic transmissions with a manual mode, allowing the driver to switch to manual gear shifting by engaging M and then adjusting the gears manually.

How to Set the Loop Mode for a Dash Cam?

Method to set the loop mode for a dash cam: In the "Settings" option of the dash cam, find "Loop Recording" and confirm. Under "Loop Recording," there will be setting options such as 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, etc., which refer to the duration of each video segment. Loop recording means that when the memory card is full, the earlier recordings will be automatically overwritten to achieve continuous recording. The loop recording duration should not be too long or too short; it is recommended to choose 2 to 3 minutes. Recording the entire drive as one segment not only occupies a large amount of memory, requiring frequent manual deletion to continue use, but also risks deleting important videos along with others. Loop recording effectively solves this issue by dividing a complete video into several small segments, which are automatically overwritten when the memory is full, starting with the oldest segments.

How to Use Hill Start Assist?

How to use hill start assist: When parking on a slope with the gear in drive, releasing the brake pedal will automatically activate the hill start assist. In some vehicles, this function activates automatically after pressing the brake pedal. Hill start assist allows the car to start on a slope without using the handbrake and prevents rolling back, but the braking time is only a few seconds. There is still a risk of rolling back if the throttle is not applied in time. How hill start assist works: When starting on a slope, the moment the foot leaves the brake pedal to press the accelerator, the HAC system automatically maintains brake oil pressure for two to three seconds, equivalent to the brake still being pressed, so the car will not roll back. When the accelerator is pressed, HAC's control of the brake automatically ends, and it does not release all braking force at once but gradually reduces the braking force, allowing the car to start as the driver presses the accelerator.
