Is there a charge for practicing driving at the test site for Subject 2?
2 Answers
The charging standards vary from place to place, and generally, practicing driving at the test site costs around 400 yuan. The following is a related introduction to Subject 2: 1. Test items: The test items include five compulsory items: reversing into the 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 areas also have a sixth item: high-speed card collection). 2. Passing criteria: The full score is 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. For applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 points is required to pass; for other types of vehicles, a score of 80 points is required to pass.
When I took the driving test for Subject 2 last year, practicing at the test site did require a fee, typically ranging from 50 to 100 RMB per hour, depending on the arrangements of the test site and the driving school. Many driving schools' tuition fees only cover basic courses and do not include the cost of on-site practice at the test venue. So if you want to familiarize yourself with the environment and experience real road conditions in advance, you'll have to pay extra. However, this is quite necessary because the Subject 2 test site is complex, and practicing a few more times can reduce nervousness and make it easier to pass on the first attempt. I recommend clarifying the fee policy before signing up to avoid unexpected additional costs. In short, although pre-test practice requires payment, it greatly aids in passing the exam—don’t skimp on this small expense and risk failing the big test.
