I remember my driving test for Subject 3 very clearly, the whole process was like playing a video game. Before getting in the car, you had to walk around it and press the sensor buttons. Once inside, you needed to adjust the seat, mirrors, fasten the seatbelt, press the clutch, and check that it was in neutral—missing any of these preparations would mean failure. To start, you had to turn on the left indicator, honk the horn, release the handbrake, shift into gear, and slowly lift the clutch. On the road, you had to complete straight-line driving and gear shifting operations, with third gear maintaining around 40 km/h being the most stable. Changing lanes or overtaking required using the turn signals and checking the mirrors, while parallel parking was the hardest part, needing the wheels to be within 30 cm of the curb. You also had to simulate braking at bus stops and school zones, look left and right when passing intersections, and if you drew the night test, you had to operate the lights correctly. The entire test lasted 14 minutes, with the examiner closely watching every detail throughout.

As a coach who has trained hundreds of students, the third subject test assesses practical driving skills. Don't underestimate the pre-driving vehicle inspection—nowadays, it's all about electronic sensors, so you must press the correct spots. The lighting test is prone to mistakes, especially confusing the high and low beam alternation. On the road, focus on basic operations: don't look down at the gearshift when changing gears, signal early before turning, and always scan by shaking your head when crossing pedestrian crossings. Gear shifting should be smooth, with no jerking as speed matches the gear. For parallel parking, I recommend the one-third hood alignment method, which offers better control than relying solely on mirrors. Finally, memorize the locations of each test point on the route—prepare your actions before the voice command. Maintaining a calm mindset throughout is more crucial than technical skills alone.

The Subject 3 driving test can be summarized in sixteen words: vehicle inspection, light operation, on-road driving, and pulling over. Specific procedures include pressing buttons for pre-drive checks before entering the vehicle, adjusting the seat, and fastening the seatbelt. After starting, the first test item is light operation – you must demonstrate proficiency in switching between low and high beams. The road test section involves maintaining stable direction during straight-line driving, using turn signals for at least three seconds when changing lanes or overtaking, and executing smooth gear shifts. Special road sections require lightly tapping the brakes when passing schools or bus stops, and carefully observing left and right at intersections. The final step is pulling over to the correct distance, engaging the handbrake, and shifting to neutral to complete the test. The entire process follows electronic voice commands, with a safety officer supervising from the passenger seat.

I remember being most nervous about parallel parking and driving in a straight line during my driving test (Subject 3). The exam can be divided into three main sections: Before getting in the car, you need to walk counterclockwise around the vehicle and press four sensors to simulate a vehicle inspection. Once inside, the first test is the lighting exam, where you must distinguish between low beam and high beam positions to avoid mistakes. The practical driving portion includes starting operations and gear shifting: start in first gear, turn in second gear, and drive straight in third or fourth gear. The tricky parts are keeping the steering wheel steady when you hear 'Please maintain a straight line,' and slowing down in advance when approaching school zones. When changing lanes, the turn signal must flash at least three times. Finally, for parallel parking, first turn on the right signal, then slowly align with the roadside line. The entire process involves many details, so maintaining a calm mindset is crucial.

The third driving test is all about meticulous operations. Walking around the vehicle and pressing buttons before getting in is mandatory, and failing to fasten the seatbelt immediately results in failure. During the random nighttime lighting test, remember to flash headlights alternately when passing sharp curves. The starting sequence must be memorized: left turn signal, honk the horn, shift to first gear, and release the handbrake. On-road tasks include gear shifting operations, with the most stable method being accelerating to 25 km/h in second gear before shifting to third. Pay special attention to braking 30 meters before pedestrian crossings, and always check the rearview mirror when changing lanes. When pulling over, first align the distance before braking, and only complete the process by turning off the turn signal and engaging the handbrake. It took me two attempts to pass, and I sincerely advise everyone not to grip the steering wheel too tightly during straight-line driving, as it can cause shaking.
