Manual transmission tests include one additional item compared to automatic transmission tests: hill start. Differences: Manual transmission Subject 2 test consists of 5 items: right-angle turns, curve driving, hill start, parallel parking, and reverse parking. Automatic transmission models do not include the hill start item in Subject 2. The challenge in manual transmission hill start lies in accurately stopping the vehicle in the correct position and preventing it from rolling back when starting. This requires the examinee to master the use of the clutch. Difficulty Level: Manual transmission is more complex to operate compared to automatic transmission, and Subject 2 is one of the most challenging parts of the driving test! Particularly, automatic transmission does not require clutch control and is less prone to stalling, making it simpler and easier to operate. However, manual transmission also has its advantages.
