Is the Subject 3 Test Conducted Manually or Electronically?

[NicoleLynn]

Subject 3 currently combines electronic proctoring and manual proctoring. Here are the details: 1. The Subject 3 test includes: road driving skills test and safety and civilized driving knowledge test, which is part of the driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the driver's test. The content of the road driving skills test varies for different types of vehicles. 2. The electronic proctoring content for Subject 3 includes: checking whether the vehicle crosses the line, drives in the wrong lane, stalls, or fails to follow instructions, etc. 3. The manual proctoring content for Subject 3 includes: assessing the candidate's mastery of gear shifting and throttle control, as well as the proficiency in vehicle handling. Generally, during the test, if there are no violations such as crossing the line, stalling, or running a red light, and the candidate follows the instructions, they can pass the test.

The driving test (Subject 3) is now mostly conducted electronically. Our driving school's test vehicles are equipped with cameras and sensors everywhere. All the examinee's operations during the test are automatically evaluated by the electronic system - failing to signal when changing lanes, unstable speed, or parking more than 50cm from the curb will all be precisely recorded. However, there's still a safety officer sitting in the passenger seat mainly to ensure driving safety; they can hit the brakes in emergencies but aren't allowed to arbitrarily interfere with the testing process. I remember one of my students failed because they didn't slow down at a crosswalk and got penalized by the system. This electronic testing method is exceptionally fair, but the pressure is indeed intense - it requires extensive practice to develop muscle memory.

E-exams are now the mainstream model, and our test centers use intelligent exam vehicles. The car body is equipped with a bunch of sensors, even detecting the steering wheel angle. Every move of the candidate is monitored by the system during the exam, and basic mistakes like forgetting to fasten the seatbelt result in an immediate zero score. Although the safety officer sits beside, their grading authority is minimal, limited to giving a couple of reminders in special sections. Last time, a friend encountered an electric scooter crossing during the exam, and thanks to the safety officer's timely avoidance. Actually, there's no need to be nervous about e-exams. As long as your skills are solid and you follow the procedures taught by the instructor, there's absolutely no problem. Electronic scoring is even less subjective than human grading.

Now that the electronic evaluation system has been implemented nationwide for Subject 3, our driving school still maintains a pass rate of around 70%. The exam vehicles have gyroscopes hidden under the steering wheel and roof-mounted positioning devices resembling small eyes, with detection accuracy down to the centimeter level. For actions like failing to use turn signals when turning, the system deducts points faster than a human evaluator would. The safety officer mainly ensures safety, while the computer solely determines the exam standards. However, electronic records can be reviewed during appeals, which ensures transparency. The key to passing is staying calm—practicing according to exam standards daily ensures you can confidently handle any instruction during the test.
