The C2 Subject 2 test consists of four items: reverse parking into a garage, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turns. In some regions, there is an additional item for highway toll card collection. Compared to the C1 manual transmission test, the C2 test does not include the hill start item. According to Article 25 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses' (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), starting from June 1, 2021, the C2 and C5 Subject 2 tests no longer assess the hill start and stop item. Reverse parking into a garage is one of the more challenging items in the Subject 2 test, which is why many test centers place it as the first item in the Subject 2 test. The requirement is to follow the designated route and sequence strictly. The vehicle must be parked inside the garage without crossing the lines, brushing the lines, or stalling. Trainees should slow down the vehicle and observe the left and right rearview mirrors carefully before fully entering the garage. They must identify the parking points accurately and adjust the vehicle's position decisively. Parallel parking focuses on aligning the front line of the garage with the rear wheel, spotting the rear corner of the garage in the rearview mirror, and maintaining the distance between the wheel and the left dotted line. After parking, there is no need to straighten the wheels, but don't forget to use the turn signal when exiting. The vehicle must not cross the lines when stopped inside the garage, and the tires must not touch or press the lane boundary lines during movement. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-curve, is relatively easy for trainees with good driving instincts, as they can complete it 'by feel.' However, some trainees misjudge the line positions during the actual test, leading to immediate failure by crossing the lines. The key to the S-curve is observing the position of the reference points on the front hood and the boundary lines. The wheels must not press the edge lines. Right-angle turns are even simpler, essentially a breakdown of the exit part of the reverse parking item. The method for finding the reference points is the same as exiting the garage, focusing on the relationship between the horizontal line of the front hood and the front boundary line (either aligning exactly or delaying slightly). Be careful not to let the wheels press the edge lines. Generally, the C1 Subject 2 training requires 16 hours, while the C2 Subject 2 training requires 14 hours. Completing the required training hours is a basic requirement for taking the Subject 2 test. Training hours can only be increased, not reduced. If additional test items are introduced, corresponding training hours must be added. Each training hour is 60 minutes, with effective teaching time not less than 45 minutes. Highway toll card collection has two forms: automatic card dispensing (press a green or orange button to collect the card) and manual card dispensing (stop at the toll booth to hand in the card and pay). When the vehicle enters the toll lane and stops in front of the toll booth, an automatic camera captures an image of the vehicle and uploads it to the server. The toll operator manually determines the vehicle type, inputs it via the keyboard, and the driver pays the fee before pressing the 'confirm' button. The toll amount is displayed on the toll screen and the fee display to inform both the operator and the driver. Once the operator confirms full payment (in cash), they press the 'confirm' button. These are the steps for stopping to collect the toll card. If you fail the Subject 2 test, you can retake it once. If you fail the retest, the current test session ends, and you must reschedule the test after ten days. If you fail five consecutive test attempts (including retests, totaling ten attempts), all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you must start over from Subject 1.
