How to use the light lever in Subject 3?
2 Answers
Driving at night without streetlights or under poor lighting conditions—(turn on the headlights, i.e., the front headlights); Please switch the front headlights to high beam—(high beam); Meeting non-motor vehicles on narrow roads or narrow bridges at night—(low beam); Meeting an oncoming vehicle within 150 meters at night—(low beam); Passing slopes, arched bridges, pedestrian crossings, or intersections without traffic signals at night—(alternate between high and low beams). The common reasons for failing this section are as follows: 1. Reason one: Not knowing which light to use under the road conditions announced by the voice prompt; 2. Reason two: Knowing which light to use but not being able to operate it correctly.
I remember when I was learning to drive and taking the third subject test, using the turn signal lever really made my palms sweat. The instructor repeatedly emphasized that turn signals were a must-test point: you had to turn on the left signal for more than three seconds before starting; when turning, changing lanes, or making a U-turn, you also had to signal in advance, and the action had to be smooth without panic. I made mistakes during practice—once I forgot to turn on the signal when changing lanes too quickly and got yelled at by the instructor for a long time. On the day of the test, the turn signal lever was located on the left column of the steering wheel, and a light push was enough to activate it—no need to use excessive force to avoid damage. Familiarizing yourself with this can significantly improve your pass rate because it's about communicating safety signals to other vehicles.
