Is it allowed to touch the line when reversing into the garage?
1 Answers
Touching the line with the car body means the car body crosses the line, which results in a deduction of 100 points, making the test unsuccessful. Crossing the line with the car body, failing to enter the garage, stopping midway, not following the prescribed route or sequence, or exceeding the time limit will also result in a deduction of 100 points. The full score for both subjects is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failure, deduction of 20 points, deduction of 10 points, and deduction of 5 points. The rules for the Subject 2 test of the motor vehicle driver's license application state that stopping or rolling back midway during the test, or not following the voice prompts, will result in failure. If the wheels or car body touch the line, the test will be considered unsuccessful. Many learners encounter the issue of touching the line during Subject 2 training, and "touching the line" is the most common mistake leading to failure. The main reason for touching the line is that learners fail to grasp the correct timing for steering. Besides missing the right moment to steer, another reason could be that the steering speed does not match the car's speed. Subject 2 Deduction Standards: Not wearing a seatbelt: Deduct 100 points. Starting the engine without the gear in neutral: Deduct 100 points. Not using the turn signal (including starting, changing lanes, overtaking, turning, or parking); using the turn signal for less than three seconds (note that this is easily overlooked!); forgetting to turn off the turn signal or using it incorrectly: Deduct 10 points. Stalling once: Deduct 10 points. Reversing into the Garage: Not following the prescribed route or sequence: Deduct 100 points. Car body crossing the line: Deduct 100 points. Failing to reverse into the garage: Deduct 100 points. Before reversing, if both front wheels do not pass the control line: Deduct 100 points. Exceeding the 210-second time limit: Deduct 100 points. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: Deduct 5 points each time. Slope Parking and Starting: After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50 cm forward or backward: Deduct 100 points. After stopping, if the front bumper is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50 cm forward or backward: Deduct 10 points. After stopping, if the starting time exceeds 30 seconds: Deduct 100 points. Driving with wheels touching the road edge line: Deduct 100 points. Starting with the car rolling back more than 30 cm: Deduct 100 points. After stopping, if the car body is more than 50 cm away from the road edge line: Deduct 100 points. After parking, not tightening the parking brake: Deduct 10 points per occurrence. After stopping, if the car body is more than 30 cm but less than 50 cm away from the road edge line: Deduct 10 points per occurrence. Starting with the car rolling back more than 10 cm but less than 30 cm: Deduct 5 points per occurrence. Parallel Parking: After parking, if the car body crosses the line: Deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal when entering the garage: Deduct 10 points. Exceeding the 90-second time limit: Deduct 100 points. Driving with the car body touching the garage edge line: Deduct 10 points per occurrence. Driving with wheels touching the lane edge line: Deduct 10 points per occurrence. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: Deduct 5 points per occurrence. 90-Degree Turn: Wheels touching the road edge line: Deduct 100 points. Not using or incorrectly using the turn signal during the turn, or not turning it off after the turn: Deduct 10 points. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: Deduct 5 points per occurrence. Curve Driving: Wheels touching the road edge line: Deduct 100 points. Stopping for more than 2 seconds midway: Deduct 100 points. Driving without the gear in second or higher: Deduct 5 points.
