What is the passing score for Subject 2 and Subject 3?
2 Answers
Subject 2 has a full score of 100 points. For both C1 and C2 driver's licenses, a score of at least 80 points is required to pass Subject 2. Subject 3 also has a full score of 100 points, with a passing score of 90 points. In theory, Subject 3 should be taken after passing Subject 2, but there is no specific rule on how many days after passing Subject 2 it must be taken. For example, for a C license, it is only stipulated that the Subject 2 test can be scheduled no earlier than 10 days after passing Subject 1, while the Subject 3 test can be scheduled no earlier than 30 days after passing Subject 1. Subject 2 is the field driving skill test, which includes five items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving along a curve. Subject 3 is the road driving skill test, which includes more than ten items such as vehicle preparation, light simulation, starting, etc. Subject 3 is conducted on the road. Once the vehicle is on the main road, the examinee does not need to worry too much about the vehicle crossing the line, as long as the test vehicle is driven in the middle of the lane. Moreover, during the Subject 3 test, there are no turns or places where the vehicle needs to stop. The examinee only needs to follow the voice prompts to accelerate, decelerate, shift up, and shift down. Since the items assessed in Subject 2 are relatively narrow or the routes are compact, even a slight mistake can lead to point deductions or even failure.
I just got my driver's license last month. The second test mainly involves on-site operations like reverse parking and hill starts, with a perfect score of 100, and you need at least 80 to pass. During my test, I lost points for crossing the line during a right-angle turn, but I still managed to score 82, just enough to pass. The third test is the road test, which assesses actual driving skills like overtaking and handling traffic lights, also with a perfect score of 100, but requiring 90 to pass. I was pretty nervous, but luckily I scored 92. I recommend practicing steering and brake control more often—don't underestimate the details, as crossing lines or stalling can cost you big points. Remember, safety comes first, and once you pass, you can hit the road and enjoy driving!
