Is the test site for Subject 2 the same as the training site?

Subject 2 test site may be the same as the usual training site, or it may be different. However, the content of the test will not change. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Introduction: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination, referred to as the field driving skill test. The test items for small cars C1 and C2 include five mandatory tests: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve (commonly known as the S-curve). Some regions also have a sixth item: high-speed card collection. 2. Large vehicles: The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving on a curve, turning at a right angle, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.

I just took the driving test Part 2 last week, and the test site was indeed different from our usual practice area. We trained in a simple lot behind the driving school, but the exam was held at a formal simulated test center with clearer markings and surveillance cameras – the unfamiliar environment made me nervous at first. During the reverse parking, I nearly crossed the line due to tension, but I passed after taking deep breaths to adjust. My instructor always emphasized that the test evaluates adaptability – minor variations like narrower parking spaces or uneven ground exist, but the operational principles remain the same. I recommend visiting the test site for trial runs beforehand; familiarizing myself with the layout in advance, as I did, ensured no issues. The key is mastering fundamental maneuvers thoroughly, enabling you to perform confidently anywhere, rather than relying solely on familiarity.

I have been teaching driving school Subject 2 for many years. The test sites and training grounds are mostly similar but differ in details. Training grounds tend to be simpler, while test sites are standardized simulation areas with uniform markings, designed to assess real driving skills. Students often complain that unfamiliar environments affect their performance, so I always recommend practicing in varied scenarios to reduce reliance on fixed positions. In practical terms, the steps for reverse parking remain unchanged, but test sites place greater emphasis on safety. Before the test, I take students to visit the test site to familiarize them with the layout—being mentally prepared makes passing easier. Remember to diversify your practice; don’t just circle around the same spot.

I failed my last driving test (Subject 2) because the test site was different from the practice area. We trained in an open space without restrictions, but the exam location had faded markings and was smaller. During the reversing test, I got nervous, couldn't align properly, and crossed the line. I regret not adapting to different environments beforehand. Actually, many testing sites might change. If the practice and test sites were identical, the mistake rate would be lower. Now I have to spend more time retaking the test. My suggestion is to confirm with the driving school whether the test location is fixed, and don't always practice in the same place—trying different sites can improve flexibility.
