What is the distance for pulling over in Subject 3?
2 Answers
In the Subject 3 driving test, the effective distance for pulling over is within 30 centimeters. Below are detailed explanations about pulling over: 1. Overview: Pulling over is a clearly defined assessment item in the road test, requiring the examinee to drive the vehicle to the side and stop. 2. Precautions: Before the vehicle comes to a complete stop, opening the door to let passengers in or out is not allowed. For temporary parking on the right side, the driver must not leave the vehicle immediately and should quickly drive away if obstructing traffic. Parking is prohibited at intersections, railway crossings, curves, narrow roads, narrow bridges, steep slopes, tunnels, and within 20 meters of these locations. Parking is also not allowed on sections with pedestrian guardrails, crosswalks, construction areas, or opposite obstacles.
The subject 3 roadside parking requires the vehicle body to be within 30 centimeters from the roadside line, which is a crucial standard. During the test, I always aligned the highest point of the windshield wiper with the roadside line and made gradual adjustments. I remember during practice, the instructor taught us to first slow down the speed, turn on the right turn signal, check the right rearview mirror to ensure safety, make small steering corrections without turning too much, and when the vehicle body is almost straight, quickly make a slight left adjustment to prevent the front wheels from crossing the line. In practical terms, 30 centimeters is about the width of two fingers, and being too far off will result in point deductions or even failure in the exam. After parking, remember to pull the handbrake and shift to neutral. This entire set of actions requires repeated practice to develop a sense of distance. It was through such standardized practice that I successfully passed my driving test.
