2 Answers
Stopping midway during reverse parking and parallel parking will result in a 5-point deduction. Below are the relevant details: Reverse Parking: Not following the designated route or sequence will result in a 100-point deduction. The vehicle body crossing the line will result in a 100-point deduction. Failing to fully enter the parking space will result in a 100-point deduction. If the two front wheels do not pass the control line before reversing, it will result in a 100-point deduction. Exceeding the time limit for completing the task will result in a 100-point deduction. Stopping midway will result in a 5-point deduction. Parallel Parking: After the vehicle is parked in the space, if the vehicle body crosses the line, it will result in a 100-point deduction. Exceeding the time limit for completing the task will result in a 100-point deduction. If the wheels touch the lane boundary line while driving, it will result in a 10-point deduction. If the vehicle body touches the parking space boundary line while driving, it will result in a 10-point deduction. Failing to use or incorrectly using the turn signal when exiting the space will result in a 10-point deduction. Stopping midway will result in a 5-point deduction.
I just finished today's student exams, and the 5-point deductions in Subject 2 are actually quite common. For the hill start, exceeding 30 seconds or rolling back less than 30 cm will deduct 5 points—many students get nervous and exceed the time. During parallel parking, touching the parking space boundary with the car body also deducts 5 points, as does the car body crossing the line during reverse parking. For right-angle turns, if the wheels press the line or the car body crosses the boundary, it’s another 5-point deduction. The same applies if the car body crosses the line during curve driving. In some regions, failing to signal or signaling incorrectly when starting also deducts 5 points. I always tell my students that these minor mistakes are easily avoidable—the key is to practice hill starts and reversing more. Spending half an hour daily at the driving school to familiarize themselves with the positions will help them stay calm during the test. These deductions don’t affect the overall outcome much, but paying attention to them can improve the pass rate.
