How to Use Turn Signals in Subject 2 Driving Test?

[EmilyLee]

There are 6 instances where turn signals are required in Subject 2: 1. When starting the vehicle, turn on the left turn signal; 2. When starting on a slope, turn on the left turn signal; 3. During parallel parking, turn on the right turn signal when pulling over to the side, stopping 30 cm from the curb before reversing; 4. Before shifting into reverse gear during parallel parking, turn on the left turn signal because the steering wheel will be turned fully to the right, causing the front of the car to move left; 5. Before exiting the parking space during parallel parking, shift into drive and turn on the left turn signal, turning it off promptly after exiting; 6. When entering a right-angle turn, turn on the left turn signal and turn it off promptly after completing the turn. Penalties for incorrect turn signal usage are as follows: - Failing to use or incorrectly using turn signals before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. - Turning the steering wheel within 3 seconds of activating the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in a 10-point deduction. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with evaluation criteria for failing, deducting 20 points, 10 points, or 5 points. The test is passed under the following conditions: ① For large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The test items for small vehicles (C1, C2) include reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, slope parking and starting (canceled for C2), right-angle turns, and S-curve driving (some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection). The test items for large vehicles (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2) include pole parking, slope parking and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, S-curve driving, right-angle turns, narrow gate passing, continuous obstacle crossing, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, and simulations for highways, continuous sharp mountain turns, tunnels, rain/fog conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
