What are the test items for Subject 3 road test?

[MacHeidi]

The road driving skills test for Subject 3 generally includes: preparation before getting on the car, simulated light test, starting, driving straight, shifting gears, changing lanes, parking by the roadside, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night. The following is a related introduction to the subject test content: 1. Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test (Subject 1) written test, computer-based answers, 100 points are full marks, 90 points or above are qualified (including 90 points). 2. Subject 2: Site driving skills test (Subject 2) on-site, actual vehicle. Only pass or fail are given. Reversing into a garage, parallel parking, S-curve, right-angle turn, and starting and stopping on a slope, these five items are compulsory and conducted in sequence. 100 points are full marks, 80 points or above are qualified (including 80 points). 3. Subject 3: Road driving skills test (Subject 3) on highways or simulated sites, actual vehicle. 100 points are full marks, large buses require 90 points or above, large trucks require 80 points or above, and other vehicle types require 70 points or above to pass. 4. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving related knowledge (Subject 4) written test, 100 points are full marks, 90 points or above are qualified (including 90 points).

I just passed the third driving test last month, and there were so many items to complete! Starting from the pre-driving preparations, the walk-around inspection and adjusting the seat and mirrors must be done properly. Details like using the turn signal and honking the horn when starting are particularly important. Keeping the car straight without veering off course is crucial, and shifting gears should be smooth without jerking. There are even more items on the road: looking left and right when going straight through intersections, signaling for at least three seconds before changing lanes or overtaking, and carefully aligning the car within 30 cm of the curb when parking. You must brake and slow down when passing schools or bus stops, and making a U-turn requires precise timing to complete in one go. The examiner watches everything closely during the test, and a single mistake in the light simulation can lead to an immediate failure. Honestly, after a few more practice sessions at the training ground, it becomes familiar. My biggest takeaway after passing was that driving safety awareness is even more important than technical skills!

After over a decade of coaching students for Subject 3 road tests, I've found the key lies in meticulous attention to standardized details. Pre-drive checks must include fastening seatbelts and adjusting mirrors. Starting requires depressing the clutch, releasing the handbrake, then gradually lifting the clutch. During straight-line driving, maintain slight steering adjustments—don't lock your arms. For gear shifts, master clutch-throttle coordination. Lane changes and overtaking demand indicator usage for at least 3 seconds. When parallel parking, align using windshield wiper reference points. Approach intersections/crosswalks by decelerating 15m prior with proper observation. Oncoming vehicle encounters require maintaining right-side clearance. Night test simulations demand disciplined light usage. The most common failure points are: straight-line deviation, mirror-neglecting lane changes, and curb-line violations during parking. Regular real-road practice builds muscle memory for test-ready execution.

Last time I failed the driving test (Subject 3) so frustratingly, mainly due to straight-line driving and pulling over. I practiced so many times, yet during the exam the car deviated 30cm while driving straight. The roadside parking was even worse - points were deducted for wheels being over 50cm from the curb. Now I've thoroughly studied the test items: besides routine starts, gear shifting, lane changes and U-turns, speed must drop below 30km/h when passing crosswalks and school zones. Light simulations are easily forgotten - fog lights and hazard lights must be activated in foggy conditions. Overtaking requires a complete procedure of signaling, honking and mirror checks. Before retaking the test, I'll focus on practicing subtle steering wheel adjustments and mirror observations, especially avoiding crossing lines during turns. Subject 3 truly tests mentality and attention to detail - nervousness easily leads to missed signals or blind spot checks.
