What are the test contents and marking criteria for Subject 3?
2 Answers
Subject 3 test contents and marking criteria are: 1. Test contents: vehicle preparation, light simulation test, starting, straight-line driving, gear shifting operation, lane changing, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving. 2. Marking criteria: coasting in neutral while driving deducts 100 points, taking eyes off the driving direction for more than 2 seconds deducts 100 points, violating traffic safety laws and regulations affecting traffic safety deducts 100 points, not driving according to traffic lights, signs, markings, or police command signals deducts 100 points, not driving at the prescribed speed deducts 100 points, riding or pressing the solid center line or edge line of the lane while driving deducts 100 points, and driving for a long time on the lane dividing line deducts 100 points.
I remember when I was young and taking my driving test, the third subject was quite challenging. The test content included pre-driving preparations such as walking around the vehicle for inspection, adjusting the seat and seatbelt; followed by the actual driving portion, like starting, driving straight, changing lanes, pulling over, turning, making U-turns, and passing through intersections. Each maneuver required precise execution. The scoring criteria were detailed: failing to signal when starting or forgetting to check the rearview mirror would deduct 10 points, while changing lanes without checking the blind spot by turning your head would result in an immediate 100-point deduction and failure. Stalling the engine once deducted 5 points, and touching the solid roadside line deducted 10 points—accumulating over 100 points meant failing the test. For night tests, there was also a simulation of light usage, with mistakes leading to point deductions. Safety was the core focus, with the examiner monitoring throughout; any slight carelessness could affect the score. The best approach was to practice simulations frequently and maintain a calm mindset.
