What is Subject 3 Driver Training?
2 Answers
Driver training for subjects refers to the learning period at a driving school. It is commonly known as "clocking hours." If the required hours for each subject are not completed, the student is not eligible to take the exam. For example, Subject 1 (theoretical learning) typically requires 30 hours of study time, while Subject 2 requires 28 hours. Below is a relevant introduction to the subject exam content: 1. Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam (Subject 1) is a written test conducted on a computer, with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above (including 90) is considered passing. 2. Subject 2: Field driving skills exam (Subject 2) is conducted on-site with an actual vehicle. The results are only categorized as pass or fail. The five mandatory test items, performed in sequence, include reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, S-curve driving, right-angle turns, and hill starts and stops. The full score is 100, with 80 or above (including 80) considered passing. 3. Subject 3: Road driving skills exam (Subject 3) is conducted on actual roads or simulated environments with an actual vehicle. The full score is 100, with passing scores varying by vehicle type: 90 or above for large buses, 80 or above for large trucks, and 70 or above for other vehicle categories. 4. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving-related knowledge (Subject 4) is a written test with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above (including 90) is considered passing.
The driving training for Subject 3 was the most crucial hands-on session when I was learning to drive. It included driving on real roads, practicing basic maneuvers like starting, changing lanes, and parking. The instructor usually arranged for us to begin on the driving school's internal roads and gradually transition to public streets, learning how to obey traffic signals, deal with pedestrians, estimate speed, and maintain a safe distance. This part of the training typically required over ten hours of practice. I still remember gripping the steering wheel nervously during each session while also learning to shift gears smoothly in heavy traffic. The test covered night driving and emergency handling, such as simulating a flat tire or sudden braking. These exercises not only helped me pass the exam but also boosted my confidence in real-world driving, preventing accidents caused by mistakes. Looking back now, those days of repetitive practice were exhausting, but once I mastered the skills, safe driving became second nature.
