What are the penalty rules for gear shifting in Subject 3?
1 Answers
Subject 3 gear shifting penalty rules state that failure to smoothly shift gears as instructed will result in disqualification, and a mismatch between vehicle speed and gear will incur a 10-point deduction. Below are the specific penalty rules for gear shifting: Gear shifting penalty rules: Starting or driving in the wrong gear without timely correction, deduct 10 points; prolonged mismatch between gear usage and speed, causing excessively high or low engine RPM, deduct 100 points; looking down at the gearshift or failing to engage the gear twice in a row while driving, deduct 100 points; gear clash during shifting, deduct 10 points; failure to smoothly shift up or down as instructed, deduct 100 points; mismatch between vehicle speed and gear, deduct 10 points. Gear and speed matching: When starting the car, use 1st gear to accelerate to around 10 km/h before shifting to 2nd gear. During normal driving, follow the principle of shifting up one gear for every 15 km/h increase in speed. Shift to 3rd gear at speeds above 25 km/h, 4th gear at speeds above 40 km/h, and 5th gear at speeds above 50 km/h. When shifting gears, depress the clutch quickly and fully—press it all the way down in one motion. Gear clashes occur when the clutch is not fully depressed, so ensure the clutch is fully pressed to avoid this issue.
