Common points where points are deducted in Subject 2 of the driving test: 1. After the vehicle stops, the distance between the body and the road edge exceeds 30cm. This issue often occurs during the hill start and stop section; 2. The front bumper of the car is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50cm. This problem also appears in the hill start and stop section, and this mistake is difficult for candidates to avoid; 3. The car body crosses the parking line: This issue occurs during the reverse parking section; 4. Failing to complete the reverse parking: This occurs during the reverse parking section. To address such issues, candidates must pay attention to the principle of 'slow' during the test—reverse slowly and adjust the direction frequently.
During my Subject 2 driving test, I was most afraid of the hill start and stop. If I didn't stop at the exact point, I would lose points, and I also had to worry about the car rolling back or stalling. Parallel parking was another headache, with wheels often crossing the line, especially accidentally hitting the corner of the parking space. Keeping the car centered was the most common issue. Side parking was even harder—if the position was slightly off, the car wouldn't be straight, leading to a high rate of point deductions. During curve driving, poor speed control easily caused the wheels to cross the line, and turning too wide or too narrow in a right-angle turn would also fail. Time management was crucial, as exceeding the time limit for any item would result in point deductions. Nervousness made things worse. It's important to simulate the test environment during practice and stay relaxed. When reversing, check the rearview mirrors and backup camera more often, find the right reference points, and don't rush. Don't overlook these small details in daily practice. Get enough sleep before the test to reduce anxiety and practice a few more times.
Common points of deduction in Subject 2 exam include inaccurate positioning on slope parking with high risks of rolling back or stalling. Frequent wheel overruns and improper body alignment during reverse parking. Non-standard parking with tilted body in parallel parking leading to significant deductions. High rate of line crossing in curve driving due to poor speed control and turning angles. Inaccurate steering in right-angle and curve turns, along with time limit violations, often cause failures. Teaching statistics show reverse parking has the highest failure rate among common candidate mistakes. It's advised to strengthen basic practice, familiarize with exam procedures through mock tests, and inspect vehicle components like steering wheel and mirrors. Safety is the core, as deduction points correlate with real driving risks. Post-exam reflection without discouragement is crucial.
Common mistakes in ramp parking lead to point deductions. Reversing into the garage often results in crossing lines. Frequent misalignment occurs in parallel parking, and curve driving often involves crossing lines. Turning too wide or too narrow in right-angle turns is hard to control, and exceeding time limits also incurs penalties. Pay attention to these small details during daily practice and maintain a steady mindset.
