What is the passing score for C2 Subject 2 driving test?
1 Answers
The passing score for C2 Subject 2 is 80 points. According to Article 35 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses", the passing standards for each subject test are as follows: the full score for Subject 2 test is 100 points. For large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required to pass, while for other vehicle types, a score of 80 is sufficient. The C2 Subject 2 test consists of 4 items: reverse parking, parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turns. Compared to the C1 manual transmission test, it excludes the hill start item. According to Article 25 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), starting from June 1, 2021, the hill start and stop item is no longer assessed for C2 and C5 Subject 2 tests. Reverse parking is one of the more challenging items in the Subject 2 test, so many test centers arrange it as the first item. The key to reverse parking includes: the steering wheel turning point, the 30 cm correction point, and the parking point. Drivers must follow the prescribed route and sequence. The vehicle must be parked within the lines without crossing them. Parallel parking focuses on aligning the front line of the parking space with the rear wheels, observing the rear corner in the mirror, and maintaining the distance between the wheels and the left dotted line. There's no need to straighten the wheels after parking, but don't forget to use the turn signal when exiting. The vehicle body must not exceed the lines after parking, and the tires must not touch the lane boundaries during movement. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-curve, is manageable for many students with good driving sense, indicating its moderate difficulty. However, some students misjudge the line positions during the actual test, leading to immediate failure. The key is to observe the position of the hood marker and the edge line. The wheels must not press against the road edge line. Right-angle turns are relatively easier, essentially a simplified version of the exiting part in reverse parking. The method to find the turning point is similar to exiting, based on the relationship between the hood's horizontal line and the front line (just touching or slightly delayed). Ensure the wheels do not touch the road edge line. Typically, the required training hours are 16 for C1 Subject 2 and 14 for C2 Subject 2. Completing the training hours is a basic requirement for taking the Subject 2 test. Hours can only be increased, not reduced, and additional test items require corresponding extra hours. Each training hour is 60 minutes, with effective teaching time no less than 45 minutes. If you fail Subject 2, you can retake it once. If you fail again, the test terminates, and you must reschedule after ten days. If you fail five consecutive test attempts (including retakes, totaling 10 attempts), all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you must start over from Subject 1.
