What are the 16 items in Subject 2 driving test?

[LeVanessa]

Here is a detailed introduction to the 16 road test items in Subject 2: 1. Vehicle preparation: After hearing the voice prompt "Begin vehicle preparation for the test," walk around the vehicle once before getting in and fastening the seatbelt. 2. Night driving: Upon hearing "Now simulating night driving, approaching an intersection (switch to low beam), entering an unlit section (switch to high beam), road with good lighting (switch to low beam), approaching an uncontrolled intersection (sound horn), temporary parking by the roadside (activate hazard lights)." 3. Starting off: After hearing "Begin starting off (activate left turn signal for over 3 seconds, sound horn and start)," drive 10 meters after starting. 4. Straight-line driving: Upon hearing "Begin straight-line driving test," align the vehicle within the lane without crossing markings, and drive straight for 100 meters. 5. Lane change: After hearing "Begin lane change test," activate left turn signal (over 3 seconds) and change lanes, driving 100 meters. 6. Overtaking: Upon hearing "Begin overtaking test," activate left turn signal (over 3 seconds), move to overtaking lane, drive over 20 meters before returning, with total overtaking distance of 200 meters. 7. Meeting vehicles: After hearing "Begin meeting vehicles test," keep left side at least 30cm from double yellow lines, speed below 30km/h, for 70 meters. 8. Gear shifting: Upon hearing "Begin gear shifting test," sequentially shift from 2nd to 4th gear, then back to 2nd gear, fully release clutch after each shift while maintaining straight driving. Speed limits: 1st gear ≤20km/h, 2nd ≤27km/h, 3rd ≤37km/h, 4th ≤47km/h, 5th ≥30km/h. Total distance 250 meters. 9. Straight through intersection: After hearing "Begin straight through intersection test," maintain speed ≤30km/h and straight trajectory without crossing markings. 10. Left turn at intersection: Upon hearing "Begin left turn test," enter left-turn lane, activate left signal (over 3 seconds), turn at ≤30km/h without crossing markings. 11. Right turn at intersection: After hearing "Begin right turn test," enter right-turn lane, activate right signal (over 3 seconds), turn at ≤30km/h without crossing markings. 12. Pedestrian crossing: Upon hearing "Begin pedestrian crossing test," maintain ≤30km/h straight trajectory without crossing markings. 13. Bus stop: After hearing "Begin bus stop test," maintain ≤30km/h straight trajectory for 50 meters without crossing markings. 14. School zone: Upon hearing "Begin school zone test," maintain ≤30km/h straight trajectory for 50 meters without crossing markings. 15. U-turn: After hearing "Begin U-turn test," activate left signal (over 3 seconds) in overtaking lane and execute turn. 16. Pull over: Upon hearing "Begin pull over test," activate right signal (over 3 seconds), park within 30cm of curb (10-point penalty if >30cm), over 100 meters, then shift to neutral, engage handbrake, release footbrake, unfasten seatbelt, and open/close door. Continuous 1st gear driving ≤100 meters; marking straddling ≤60 meters.

I just passed the Subject 2 test, and I'm still excited! The 16 test items mainly assess driving skills. For example, in reverse parking, you need to aim accurately, operate the steering wheel, reverse smoothly, stop in the center, and then exit safely. For the hill start, you must stop precisely within the yellow line, pull up the handbrake, control the clutch and throttle when starting, and avoid rolling back. Parallel parking includes signaling, reversing into the spot, and adjusting the angle. The curve driving and right-angle turns test your ability to control speed and avoid crossing lines. There are also minor items like pre-start preparations, checking mirrors, and gear shifting. Altogether, there are 16 points, each prone to deductions—it took me two months of practice to master them. Remember, during the hill start, slowly lift the clutch until you hear the engine sound before adding throttle—don’t rush, practice makes perfect.

As an instructor who has taught many students, I believe the key to the 16 items in Subject 2 lies in basic control: reversing into the garage is divided into five actions—preparation, observation, reversing, stopping steadily, and exiting; slope positioning requires accurate positioning, steady braking, and smooth starting; parallel parking involves signaling, reversing, and adjusting; curve driving includes entering the curve, controlling speed, and exiting the curve; right-angle turns require steering and passing safely. Additionally, pre-start checks, seat adjustment, and speed management bring the total to 16 detailed items. The key is more practice—beginners often stall on slopes, so teaching them to synchronize the throttle and clutch is crucial—mastering this can save a lot of trouble and increase the chance of passing the test on the first try.

Thinking back to when I got my driver's license in my youth, the 16 items in Subject 2 were truly unforgettable: reverse parking was the major one, done in several steps; hill-start required precise positioning; parallel parking depended on turning the wheel at the right points; the S-curve and right-angle turns tested your eyesight and feel. There were also minor items like starting procedures and gear shifting, all together forming the complete test. The exam was about practice making perfect—just drive more and you'll get the hang of it, no need to be nervous.

When my child was preparing for the Subject 2 driving test, I accompanied him through several practice sessions. The 16 test items included multiple steps of reverse parking, hill start and stop, parallel parking in and out, curve control, as well as turn signal usage and speed maintenance. The key points are safety and standardization – each action is scored, so avoid crossing lines or stalling. Parents can help simulate the test conditions, with extra practice on reverse parking and hill starts being crucial. Passing this test brings peace of mind for regular driving.
