What are the deduction items for straight-line driving in Subject 3?

[Gael]

Failing to walk around the vehicle to inspect its appearance and observe the surrounding environment will result in deductions. Not observing the traffic behind before opening the car door will also lead to deductions. Below are the specific details: 1. Starting the vehicle: Before starting, you should generally check if the doors are fully closed, adjust the seat and mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, inspect the brakes and gear, check the dashboard when starting the engine, observe the interior and exterior mirrors (glancing at the left and right mirrors), turn your head to observe the traffic behind, turn on the turn signal, engage the gear, release the parking brake, and ensure the starting process is smooth, without jerking, rolling backward, or stalling. 2. Straight-line driving: Control the speed reasonably according to road conditions, use the correct gear, maintain straight-line driving, keep an appropriate following distance, continuously observe the interior and exterior mirrors during driving, and ensure your gaze does not leave the driving direction for more than 2 seconds.

As a beginner driver who just passed the third driving test, I have a vivid memory of the point-deduction items for straight-line driving. The examiner usually focuses on whether the steering wheel is turned too much - exceeding 10 degrees will cost points; if the vehicle deviates and crosses the line, it's an immediate failure (so harsh!); speed must be maintained between 20-50 km/h - going too slow or accelerating abruptly will deduct points; insufficient observation (not checking mirrors frequently enough for rear traffic) will earn minor deductions; unstable starts/stops causing engine stalls or shaking also get penalized. So many details! I was so nervous during my test that I almost lost control of the steering, but thankfully stabilized it. My advice: practice straight-line driving at constant speed more often, hold the wheel gently with both hands, focus your gaze far ahead instead of staring at nearby spots - these small techniques really help avoid deductions. Simulate the entire test process several times before the exam to familiarize yourself with all deduction points, and you'll pass with ease.

I've shared quite a few driving learning experiences. The key deduction points for straight-line driving lie in control errors: excessive steering wheel movement deducts 5 points; vehicle deviating over 30cm from centerline or crossing lines results in failure; speed violations (below 20km/h or above 50km/h) get penalized; rough gear shifts, stalling, or failure to observe surroundings also incur deductions; failing to maintain safe following distance is dangerous too. Fundamentally, this tests a driver's basic stability. During exams, remember to maintain steady speed, avoid sudden braking, and focus your gaze on distant reference points. Practice more on urban straight roads to develop good habits, and don't let nervousness affect your operation - I've seen novices fail by overcorrecting the steering, which is such a pity. In short, diligent practice and calm mentality will get you through smoothly.

I took the driving test for Subject Three the year before last, and the points deducted for straight-line driving left a deep impression on me. Don’t wobble the steering wheel—keeping the movement small is safer; keep the car straight without veering off or touching the lines; maintain a steady speed around 30 km/h, avoiding sudden acceleration or deceleration; check the rearview mirror at least twice to monitor the traffic behind; ensure smooth starts and stops without jerking. It’s actually not that hard. During my test, I stayed relaxed and passed on the first try. My advice is to focus on the basics during practice and stay calm.
