What is the order of the subjects in the driving test's second section?
2 Answers
Subject 2 of the driving test consists of five items in the following order: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). Below are some important points to note for Subject 2: 1. Adjusting the seat: Before starting, make sure to adjust the seat and fasten the seatbelt before verifying your fingerprint. 2. Test areas: Each test item in the examination area is monitored by GPS positioning. The control line (yellow dashed line) for each item marks the test area. Once the front of the vehicle crosses the control line, it means you have entered the test area for that item and must complete the test according to its rules. 3. Examination rules: Before moving on to the next test item, always check if there is a vehicle ahead still taking the test. If there is a vehicle in the test area ahead, you must stop and wait before the yellow line of that item and not enter.
I remember on the day of the Subject 2 test, the sequence was arranged quite logically. The first step was reversing into the garage, which required careful control of the steering wheel and observation of the rearview mirrors. Next was parallel parking, where attention had to be paid to the distance between the car body and the curb to avoid crossing the line. Then came the hill start, focusing on the coordination between the clutch and brake to prevent rolling back. Finally, there was the right-angle turn, where maintaining a steady speed was key for smooth steering. The entire process had to strictly follow the examiner's instructions, and staying calm was essential. With more practice, one could become familiar with the transitions between each task. Only after completing the test did I realize the importance of the sequence—it helps candidates gradually adapt from basic to complex maneuvers. I recommend beginners memorize this sequence early to avoid mistakes on the spot that could affect their mindset. Actually, there might be minor adjustments in different regions, but generally, this is the standard procedure.
