What are the contents to learn in Subject 3?

[DiMarley]

Subject 3 involves learning road driving skills. The examination content for road driving skills varies depending on the different types of vehicles eligible for driving. Provincial traffic management departments of public security authorities may, based on local conditions, add examination items for automobile driving licenses and determine examination items for other eligible vehicle types. The road driving skills examination for Subject 3 includes the following contents: 1. Vehicle preparation, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, and shifting gears. 2. Changing lanes, parking by the roadside, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, and turning right at intersections. 3. Passing through pedestrian crossings, passing through school zones, passing through bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving.

When I first started learning Subject 3, the content felt as extensive as a small booklet. First, I had to learn how to start the car smoothly without rolling back, which required precise control of the clutch and accelerator. Then, there was shifting gears while driving, matching the gear to the speed to prevent the car from jerking. Lane changing was a key focus—observing front, back, left, and right, signaling with the turn indicator, and only steering after ensuring safety. Parking maneuvers, like parallel parking, demanded accuracy without crossing lines, staying about 30 centimeters from the curb. Reversing into a parking space tested spatial awareness, requiring a steady backward entry. Hill starts were tricky; poor clutch control could lead to rolling back. At intersections, I had to watch traffic lights, slow down, and check for pedestrians. U-turns had to be done in permitted areas. During practice, my hands were sweaty, but it became fun once I got used to it. I recommend simulating test routes often and paying close attention to the examiner's instructions.

The training for Subject 3 focuses on practical road driving skills. Trainees must master the starting operation to ensure no stalling or coasting; maintain a reasonable speed during driving and practice gear shifting techniques; emphasize safety confirmation during lane changes, using signals and checking mirrors; practice precise parking ability when pulling over; the overtaking project tests judgment and timing; reversing into a parking space practices vehicle positioning; hill starting is a challenging point, requiring clutch control; slow down and observe when passing intersections and crosswalks; practice flexibility with U-turns. Safety awareness and rule compliance run throughout. It's best to practice more on the road with the instructor to accumulate experience and reduce mistakes during the test.

Subject 3 is the practical driving part on the road: don't start too abruptly, shift gears smoothly; when changing lanes, signal and check the rearview mirror, don't panic; park steadily and accurately by the roadside; overtake only when there's enough space; practice reversing into the garage a few times to get familiar; stopping on a slope with clutch control is quite tricky; slow down and watch the lights at intersections; choose a safe spot for U-turns. Master these and the test will go smoothly.

I feel nervous watching my child learn Subject 3 of the driving test. The content includes: starting smoothly to prevent stalling or rolling back; coordinating gear shifts during normal driving; signaling and observing the environment when changing lanes; parking close to the curb without crossing the boundary; being aware of blind spots when overtaking; reversing into a parking space and starting on a slope are common points where marks are deducted, so more simulation is needed; slowing down and yielding at intersections; choosing an open section for U-turns. It is recommended to strengthen basic practice, familiarize with the test site and instructions to ensure a safe pass.

Preparing for Subject 3, review key content: Practice clutch and throttle coordination during the starting phase; master gear shifting and lane changing techniques while driving, using turn signals and observation; parking includes precise roadside parking; practice spatial judgment in reverse parking; hill start and stop are key challenges; overtaking and crossing intersections emphasize reaction ability; practice smooth steering during U-turns. Cooperate with the examiner's instructions during drills to build confidence for the actual test.
