When reversing into or exiting the parking space in Subject 2, it is not necessary to use turn signals. There are a total of 6 instances in Subject 2 where turn signals are required, which are: When starting the vehicle, turn on the left turn signal; When starting on the slope, turn on the left turn signal; When parallel parking, turn on the right turn signal as the vehicle passes the side parking space and prepares to reverse at a distance of 30 cm from the side line; 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 during reversing, causing the front of the vehicle to shift left; Before exiting the parallel parking space, shift into drive gear and turn on the left turn signal, then turn it off promptly after exiting; When entering the area for a right-angle turn, turn on the left turn signal and turn it off promptly after completing the turn. Penalties for incorrect use of turn signals are as follows: Failing to use or incorrectly using turn signals before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a deduction of 10 points. Turning the steering wheel within less than 3 seconds after turning on the turn signal before starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking will result in a deduction of 10 points. The full score for Subject 2 is 100 points, with assessment criteria set for disqualification, deductions of 20 points, 10 points, or 5 points. The test is considered passed under the following conditions: ① For applicants of large passenger vehicles, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger vehicles, or 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 and C2 include reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, slope parking and starting (canceled for C2), right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curves) as the five mandatory items (some regions include a sixth item, high-speed card collection). The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include stake test, slope parking and starting, parallel parking, single-plank bridge crossing, curve driving, right-angle turns, limited-width gate crossing, continuous obstacle crossing, bumpy road driving, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain road turns, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
