What does 'plus a few hundred meters' mean in Subject 4?
2 Answers
In Subject 4, 'plus a few hundred meters' refers to the precise location calculated from the starting point of the highway, adding a set number of kilometers and then a set number of meters. Below are the specific details about Subject 4: 1. Concept: Subject 4 is an additional safety and civilization knowledge test following the road test of Subject 3. Officially, there is no such term as Subject 4. 2. Exam Format: The test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. 3. Exam Content: The main content of Subject 4 includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.
When I was taking the fourth subject test, I also got confused by this. Simply put, on highways or dangerous road sections, the distance for placing warning signs should be increased. For example, 50-100 meters is sufficient on ordinary roads, but if the question mentions adding a few hundred meters, then it should be 150 meters. This type of question usually appears in scenarios involving parking due to accidents, and it often includes traps in the wording, making you pay attention to keywords like 'highway' or 'low visibility.' I made a comparison note specifically for this: 50 meters for urban roads, 100 meters for suburban ordinary roads, and 150 meters directly for highways. After practicing the questions a few times, you’ll notice the pattern—when the question mentions high-speed areas, it’s usually 150 meters or more. It would be a shame to get stuck on such questions during the exam.
