What are the detailed deduction items for reverse parking?

[LaylaMarie]

Subject 2 deduction standards general requirements: Failure to use the seat belt as required, deduct 100 points; Engine stalling once due to improper operation, deduct 10 points. For reverse parking, failure to follow the prescribed route or sequence, deduct 100 points; Vehicle body crossing the line, deduct 100 points; Failure to fully enter the parking space, deduct 100 points; Stopping midway, deduct 100 points. Key points for reverse parking in Subject 2 from the return point to entering the garage: Engage the reverse gear, keep the steering wheel at the left-turn limit position unchanged, and reverse the vehicle. The driver should observe the left rearview mirror and adjust the direction to guide the rear of the vehicle into the garage. After the vehicle enters the garage, the driver should observe the right rearview mirror. When the entire right line of the garage becomes visible, immediately straighten the steering wheel. Then, the driver should shift focus to the left rearview mirror and stop immediately when the left door handle is level with the garage's bottom line.

Last time I accompanied my friend practicing for Subject 2, I specifically noted the penalty points for reverse parking. If the car body touches the yellow line at the edge of the parking space, it's an immediate 100-point deduction—my friend failed because the right rear wheel crossed the line. Not fully entering the parking space with the front of the car or reversing beyond the back of the space also counts as not parking properly, resulting in a 100-point deduction. It's frustrating that stopping for more than 2 seconds mid-process deducts 5 points each time, often caused by the steering wheel locking up. Exceeding the 210-second time limit means an automatic failure, something our instructor always reminds us to avoid by being quick with our hands and feet. Taking the wrong route or not following the specified sequence for reverse parking also leads to immediate disqualification. Nowadays, exam cars have electronic sensors, and even slightly touching the dotted lines with the tires can be judged as crossing the line, so it's safer to leave an extra 10 cm margin compared to practice sessions at the driving school.

As a newly licensed driver, I remember the pitfalls of reverse parking all too clearly. The worst fear is having the wheels cross the line, which means instant failure. My instructor always said it's better to leave more space than to park too close to the edge. The front of the car must be completely inside the parking space - during a mock test, I lost 100 points because I was half a fist-length short, which was heartbreaking. Turning the steering wheel too late can cause you to hit the corner, while turning early can save the situation, but never stop for more than 2 seconds during the process, as this is easily overlooked. If the clutch control is poor during reverse parking, causing the car to shake, it counts as an intermediate stop, which cost me 5 points in the exam. Time management is also crucial – exceeding 3.5 minutes means you're done, so timing your practice sessions is essential for safety.

After years of observing student driving tests, the point deductions for reverse parking mainly fall into four categories. First is position control: running over lines with any wheel (front, rear, left, or right) results in a 100-point deduction, the most severe penalty. Similarly, failing to fully enter the parking space or reversing through the back of the space also costs 100 points. Second is procedure operation: taking the wrong route or making sequence errors leads to immediate failure. Third is time management: exceeding 210 seconds means failing, and pausing for more than 2 seconds during the maneuver deducts 5 points each time. Fourth is detail handling: excessive steering wheel movement causing shaking is judged as an intermediate stop, and having the car body tilted more than 30 centimeters after parking also incurs point deductions. A practical tip for the test: bring a damp cloth to clean the rearview mirrors, as rainy conditions can blur vision and increase the risk of crossing lines.

There are actually clear patterns in the point deductions for reverse parking. Wheels crossing the parking boundary lines account for 70% of failures, with the right rear wheel being the most common offender. Failing to fully enter the parking space (like stopping outside the lines) is an automatic 100-point deduction – never mistake the parking space number. Time pressure is real: exceeding 210 seconds total or pausing for over 2 seconds mid-process incurs penalties. My instructor taught a trick – shift gears before the car fully stops during reverse to save 2 seconds. Overly aggressive steering causing wheel spin counts as a mid-process pause – electronic sensors are far more sensitive than human eyes. Few notice rear overhang: even the rear bumper exceeding the positioning line qualifies as a fail.
