The most common areas where people fail in Subject 3 of the driving test are as follows: 1. Inadequate inspection: Before getting into the car, there is a requirement to walk around the vehicle. Don't assume this is just a formality, especially for the first examinee of the test vehicle. While walking around, make sure to check if the wheels are intact and if the front and rear doors are securely closed. 2. Insufficient observation: The reason for insufficient observation is that examinees only glance at the side mirrors when they should actually turn their heads to look, or sometimes they don't observe at all before taking action. The most overlooked areas are when opening and closing doors while getting in and out of the car. 3. Poor gear shifting: Not knowing when to shift gears, unfamiliarity with gear positions leading to wrong gear selection, and not pressing the clutch fully, causing rough gear shifting. 4. Delayed signaling: There are two instances where signaling is required: during the light simulation and when using turn signals. The light simulation requires completing the operation within 5 seconds after the voice prompt. Lack of familiarity with light operations can easily lead to exceeding this time limit. Turn signals not only need to be used correctly but also held for a full 3 seconds and turned off promptly after turning. Many examinees react too slowly, making it hard to meet these requirements. 5. Failing to drive straight: Not being able to drive straight is usually due to two reasons: not adjusting the steering wheel at all or making overly large adjustments. To drive straight effectively, besides remembering to look far ahead and make minor adjustments, the key is regular practice.
