What are the test items for the automatic transmission in Subject 2?

[DiKing]

There are a total of 4 test items for the C2 automatic transmission in Subject 2: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turning. Compared to the C1 manual transmission, the hill start is omitted. According to Article 25 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), starting from June 1, 2021, the C2 and C5 Subject 2 tests no longer assess the hill start and stop. Reversing into a garage is one of the more challenging items in the Subject 2 test, so many test centers place it as the first item. The key points for reversing into a garage are: the steering wheel turning point, the 30 cm correction point, and the stopping point in the garage. You must follow the prescribed route and sequence. Reversing must be into the garage, and you cannot cross the lines. Parallel parking focuses on aligning the front line of the garage with the rear wheels, spotting the rear corner in the rearview mirror, and the distance between the wheels and the left dotted line. After parking, the wheels do not need to be straightened, and don’t forget to use the turn signal when exiting. After the vehicle stops in the garage, the body must not cross the lines. The tires must not touch or press the lane boundary lines during driving. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-curve, is not very difficult, as many students with good driving sense can complete it by feel. However, some students misjudge the line positions during the actual test, leading to immediate failure by crossing the lines. The key to the S-curve is observing the position of the front hood marker and the boundary lines. The wheels must not press the road edge lines. Right-angle turning is even simpler and can be seen as a breakdown of the exiting part from the reversing into a garage item. The method for finding the point is the same as exiting: the relationship between the front hood’s horizontal line and the front line (just touching or slightly delayed). Be careful not to let the wheels press the road edge lines. Generally, the required training hours for C1 Subject 2 are 16 hours, while for C2, it’s 14 hours. Completing the required hours is a basic requirement for taking the Subject 2 test. Training hours can only be increased, not reduced, and additional test items require corresponding additional hours. Each training hour is 60 minutes, with effective teaching time not less than 45 minutes. If you fail Subject 2, you can retake it once. If you fail the retest, the current test session ends, and you must reschedule the test after 10 days. If you fail five consecutive test sessions (including retests, totaling 10 attempts), all previously passed subjects will be voided, and you must start over from Subject 1.
