Is it necessary to fasten the seat belt for Subject 2?
2 Answers
Yes, if you forget to fasten the seat belt when getting in the car, you will be directly deducted 100 points and fail the exam. Below is some information about the Subject 2 exam: Passing criteria: The full score is 100 points, with evaluation standards set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. For applicants of large buses, trailers, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required. For other vehicle types, a score of 80 is required. Score confirmation: If you fail the Subject 2 exam on the first attempt, you can retake it once. If you do not participate in the retake or still fail the retake, the exam process will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam after ten days.
I still vividly remember my training for the driving test's Subject 2. The instructor always emphasized that the seatbelt must be fastened. If you didn't buckle up before starting, you'd immediately lose points or even fail the test. I recall one mock exam where I was so nervous that I forgot to fasten it—the moment I started the car, the instructor stopped me and made me start over. The seatbelt isn't just a test requirement; it's a core safety habit for driving. During Subject 2 exercises like reverse parking or hill starts, the car might slide or have minor bumps—wearing a seatbelt prevents injuries from hitting the steering wheel. My advice is to take a deep breath before getting in the car and remind yourself to buckle up. Over time, it'll become second nature, helping you prioritize safety in real road conditions too. Develop good habits, and the test will go smoothly.
