After the vehicle comes to a stop, the front bumper of the car or the front axle of the motorcycle must not be positioned beyond the marker pole line, with a tolerance of no more than 50 centimeters in either direction. Below is a relevant introduction about Subject 2: 1. Overview: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination and refers to the field driving skills test. For small vehicles (C1 and C2), the test items include five mandatory sections: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may include a sixth item: high-speed card collection. 2. Teaching aids: Teaching software: Students can use driver simulation test software on mobile or computer devices to study traffic regulations. Teaching materials: "Safe Driving Starts Here," compiled by the Ministry of Transport of the People's Republic of China. Driving schools may provide learning materials uniformly, or students may purchase them at their own expense.

I remember during the uphill start in the driving test (Subject 2), the most nerve-wracking parts were the parking position and the stability during takeoff. The test requires the front of the car to stop within 30 centimeters of the designated yellow line—neither exceeding nor falling short. When starting, you must ensure no rolling back or stalling, which took me a lot of practice. You need to gently release the clutch while coordinating your right foot between the brake and accelerator. Rolling back more than 30 centimeters or stalling results in an immediate fail. The instructor explained this is for safety reasons, preventing rear-end collisions on slopes in real driving. I recommend practicing more on simulators, especially on slopes, to get familiar with the clutch feel before working on brake coordination. Also, always adjust your seat and mirrors—incorrect positioning makes it easy to cross the line. My first attempt failed because I was too hasty and rolled back, but I passed on the second try. Repeated practice really helps, so don’t get discouraged.

Speaking of the requirements for the slope section in Subject 2, I must say precise parking is key. The car must stop exactly on the marked line, with minimal deviation front and back—about the length of a foot. For the starting part, the car must neither roll back nor stall, so you need to hold the clutch steady, gradually releasing it, and add a bit of throttle when you hear the engine sound deepen. The handbrake should be released quickly without hesitation. I've seen many people fail because they got nervous, released the brake too abruptly, and the car rolled back, resulting in an immediate disqualification. This section mainly tests your sensitivity to vehicle control, and since slopes are common on actual roads, safety comes first. During practice, it helps to have a partner observe your position from outside the car to correct any deviations. On hot days, the engine can overheat easily, so take breaks between practice sessions.

The key points in the uphill section of Subject 2 are stopping accurately and starting smoothly. The front wheels must align with the line—neither crossing it nor being too far away. During startup, the car must not roll back more than a small distance, about the thickness of a book. Stalling or rolling back too far will result in failure. When I was learning, my instructor emphasized pressing the brake first, then slowly releasing the clutch until the car vibrates before releasing the handbrake. This requires good coordination. Practice often on open slopes, using cones to mark positions and simulate the test. Once familiar, it becomes less difficult. Remember to stay calm—rushing leads to mistakes.
