3 Answers
The passing score for the C1 driver's license Subject 2 test is 80 points. The C1 Subject 2 test mainly consists of five items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, curve driving, right-angle turning, and hill start and stop. Automatic transmission (C2) Subject 2 does not include hill start and stop. A C1 driver's license allows driving small and micro passenger vehicles, among others. C1 test has four subjects in total, and the other three subjects are as follows: Subject 1: Mainly tests basic knowledge of road traffic. Subject 2: Mainly tests reversing into a garage, parallel parking, curve driving, right-angle turning, and hill start and stop. Subject 3: Mainly tests 16 driving skills, including preparation before driving, starting, and straight-line driving. Subject 4: Mainly tests the requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, similar to Subject 1, it is a theoretical test. Subject 2 test tips: During the Subject 2 test, before driving, be sure to adjust the seat height, adjust the rearview mirror to ensure a wide field of vision, and fasten the seat belt. During the test, do not stop unless the voice prompts a failure. For parallel parking, remember to find the right angle, turn the steering wheel quickly, react promptly, and coordinate with the vehicle's speed. For hill start and stop, remember to pull the handbrake, turn on the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and coordinate the throttle and clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turning, find the reference point before turning and coordinate with the vehicle's speed. For curve driving (S-curve), slow down. For reversing into a garage, control the speed, find the reference point, and make minor adjustments if there is any deviation observed in the rearview mirror. Subject 2 deduction items: Reversing into a garage: Vehicle body crossing the line, deduct 100 points, judged as failing; not completing the reversing, deduct 100 points, judged as failing; stopping midway, deduct 5 points each time; not completing the test within the specified time, deduct 100 points, judged as failing. Parallel parking: After the vehicle stops in the garage, the body crossing the line deducts 100 points, judged as failing; stopping midway, deduct 5 points each time; tires or body touching the curb line while driving, deduct 10 points; not completing the test within the specified time, deduct 100 points, judged as failing. Curve driving: Wheels crossing the road edge line, failing; stopping midway, failing; driving gear not in second gear or above, deduct 5 points. Right-angle turning: Wheels crossing the road edge line, failing; stopping midway, deduct 5 points each time. Hill start and stop: After the vehicle stops, if the front bumper or motorcycle front axle is not aligned with the pole line and exceeds 50cm, failing; exceeding the specified start time, failing; after the vehicle stops, if the front bumper or motorcycle front axle is not aligned with the pole line but does not exceed 50cm, deduct 10 points; after the vehicle stops, if the body distance from the road edge line exceeds 30cm but not 50cm, deduct 10 points. Not tightening the parking brake after stopping, deduct 10 points. C1 driver's license test passing standards: Traffic regulations and related knowledge—90 points to pass. Field driving—80 points to pass. Road driving—80 points to pass. Safe and civilized driving knowledge—90 points to pass.
I just got my C1 driver's license last year, and passing score for Subject 2 was 80! But it's easy to lose points on details: incorrect stopping position on hill start deducts 10 points, stalling once deducts 10 points, and crossing the line means immediate failure. Remember not to be nervous during the test, adjust the rearview mirrors properly, and keep the speed slow. Our instructor always said 'slow means steady, steady means pass.' In the end, I almost crossed the line during the right-angle turn but barely passed with 80 points.
As a seasoned driving school student sharing real experience: The full score for C1 Subject 2 is 100 points, with 80 points required to pass. Reversing into the garage is the easiest to fail - sweeping the line with the car body directly deducts 100 points, and stopping midway during the exercise deducts 5 points each time. Only after taking the test once did I realize that exceeding the 90-second time limit in parallel parking also results in failure. I recommend using the free simulation service at the test center to familiarize yourself with the route. During my second attempt, I accurately located the garage corner in the rearview mirror and successfully reversed in one go.
