What is the maximum speed in 2nd gear for Subject 3?

[JuniperFitz]

In Subject 3, the minimum speed in 2nd gear should not be lower than 15 km/h, and the maximum speed should not exceed 30 km/h. When in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd gear, the engine speed should not drop below 800 RPM, otherwise the engine may stall, and it should not exceed 1800 RPM. Below are the precautions for the Subject 3 road test: 1. Fingerprint: If the candidate's fingerprint verification fails, they should exit the vehicle to re-collect their fingerprint before rejoining the test queue. 2. Score: If the candidate's score falls below the passing mark during the test, the system will automatically prompt them to pull over. After completing the pull-over maneuver, the system will indicate the next test step. 3. Distance: After the candidate completes all required test items and drives a distance of more than 3 kilometers, the system will automatically prompt them to pull over. Upon hearing the pull-over instruction, the candidate should choose a clear curb (or solid road edge line) along the test route and safely complete the pull-over maneuver. Once the pull-over is completed, the system will announce the test results.

During the driving test (Subject 3), the recommended maximum speed for second gear is generally no more than 20 km/h. I remember when I was taking my driver's license test, the instructor repeatedly reminded me to keep it between 15 and 20 km/h. Going too fast would result in an automatic failure by the system, while going too slow might affect the smoothness of the road test. Second gear is mainly used for starting and low-speed turns, not for high speeds. If you press the accelerator too hard, the engine noise increases, and the examiner will deduct points. The key is to maintain a steady speed and practice monitoring the speedometer regularly—it becomes easier with habit. During the test, if you exceed the speed limit, such as going above 25 km/h, you'll likely fail. That's why I always kept an eye on the dashboard during practice to avoid such mistakes. The same applies to everyday driving—using second gear to rush in urban areas can easily lead to accidents. Developing good habits starts with the test.

The maximum speed in second gear during Subject 3 is approximately 25 km/h, but in practice it's best to keep it under 20 km/h. From a safety perspective, second gear is designed for low-speed driving. Excessive speed can overload the engine, potentially causing stalling or accidents. The exam rules clearly specify speed limits - exceeding them not only leads to failure but may also result in more severe consequences due to emergency braking. Even during regular driving in residential areas or school zones, speed limits must be observed. Driving too fast in second gear creates excessive noise and increases the risk of pedestrian collisions. Candidates are advised to practice simulated exam scenarios frequently, adjusting speed by listening to engine sounds and monitoring the dashboard, while always prioritizing safety awareness.

During the road test (Subject 3), the maximum speed in second gear is typically limited to 15-25 km/h. The exact range depends on the vehicle model and test site requirements, with most situations maintaining around 20 km/h being appropriate. Always monitor the speedometer during the test, as it's easy to accidentally exceed or fall below the required speed. My driving instructor taught me a technique: gently press and release the accelerator in second gear to avoid jerky movements. If the speed is too high, not only will points be deducted, but it can also affect gear shifting smoothness. In daily driving, such speeds are suitable for curves or congested road sections. In short, remember the speed limit, stay calm during the test, and you'll pass smoothly.
