What are the test items for automatic transmission vehicles?

An automatic transmission driver's license is a type of driving license that only permits the holder to drive small and micro automatic transmission passenger vehicles, as well as light and micro automatic transmission cargo vehicles. Below are the specific details: Subject 2 Test Items: The automatic transmission Subject 2 test includes five items: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, stopping on a slope, making a right-angle turn, and driving through curves. Subject 3 Test Items: The Subject 3 test consists of road driving skills and a test on safe and civilized driving knowledge. Each part is scored out of 100, with a passing score of 90 or above. The road driving skills test includes preparation before starting, starting off, making a right turn at an intersection, making a U-turn, going straight through an intersection, making a left turn at an intersection, passing a bus stop, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, driving straight, changing lanes, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing school zones, and pulling over to park.
When I was taking the automatic transmission driver's license test, the whole process made me, a beginner, quite nervous. Starting with the theory test, I had to memorize a bunch of traffic rules, such as the meanings of traffic signs, speed limits, emergency handling procedures, and the importance of seat belts. Then came the practical test on the training ground, which included straight-line driving, turning angle control, reverse parking, and parallel parking. Using an automatic transmission car was much easier than a manual one—no gear shifting required—but it was easy to make careless mistakes, like not checking the rearview mirror while reversing or going too fast and hitting the poles. After the field test, there was the road driving test with the examiner sitting in the passenger seat, checking how I handled intersections, overtaking, lane changes, braking timing, and pedestrian avoidance. Common failure points included not paying attention to blind spots or making signal errors. I recommend practicing real-road simulations more often, such as simulating traffic jam scenarios to improve reaction time, while keeping a calm mindset. Passing the test ensures that everyone can drive independently with more confidence and safety.
