How to Press the Buttons During the Vehicle Circumnavigation in Subject 3?
2 Answers
Generally, when performing the vehicle circumnavigation to check the vehicle condition, after getting off from the driver's seat, first walk to the rear seat behind the driver's position and press the first button. Then proceed to the right rear side to press the second button, followed by moving forward to the front passenger seat to press the third button, and finally return to the driver's seat to enter the vehicle.
Last time I took the driving test for Subject 3, I was a bit nervous too. The button is usually installed under the right rearview mirror of the test vehicle or at a visible position on the rear of the car—it's a small round button. Pressing it is simple. First, walk to the front of the car and confirm it's safe, then press it gently—don’t use too much force. The system will beep once to indicate the start, and then you can walk around the car to check the tires and surrounding obstacles, looking for stones or puddles. The instructor at the test site taught us that we must follow the standard procedure, or we might lose points easily. Actually, walking around the car isn’t just for the test—it’s important to develop this habit in daily driving to avoid collisions when starting. After the test, I suggest practicing a few more times to get familiar with the button’s location, as it might vary slightly between different driving school vehicles.
