What is the passing score for Subject 2 driving test?

[MaliaLynn]

Subject 2 has a full score of 100 points, with evaluation criteria set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. The test is considered passed under the following conditions: ① For applicants applying for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, or large trucks, a score of 90 or above is required; ② For other vehicle types, a score of 80 or above is required. The test items for small vehicles C1 and C2 include reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope (canceled for C2), turning at a right angle, and driving on an S-curve (commonly known as S-turn) as five mandatory items (some regions have a sixth item, high-speed card collection). The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving on an S-curve, turning at a right angle, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling. If a candidate fails the Subject 2 test on the first attempt, they are allowed one retake. If the candidate does not take the retake or fails the retake, the test is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving test permit, the number of rescheduling for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skill tests must not exceed five times. If the candidate fails the fifth rescheduled test, the results of other passed subjects will be invalidated.

I just finished my Subject 2 driving test recently. As a beginner learner, the passing score was my biggest concern. I remember the instructor repeatedly emphasized that with a total score of 100, you need 80 to pass. On exam day, I was super nervous - mistakes in maneuvers like reverse parking or parallel parking would deduct points immediately, such as 10 points for crossing lines. After countless practice sessions, I finally scored 85 by maintaining good vehicle control and composure. My advice for beginners: practice at least 2 hours daily, simulate test conditions, and don't overlook details like seat adjustment and mirror positioning. Actually, Subject 2 mainly tests basic vehicle control - staying calm is crucial. Watch tutorial videos regularly instead of last-minute cramming to avoid panic-induced mistakes. The 80-point threshold isn't exceptionally high, but requires steady, patient practice without rushing.

Having taught driving for over a decade, I often remind students that the passing score for Subject 2 is 80 points. The test consists of various items like reversing into a garage and stopping on a slope, totaling 100 points. As long as you don't lose too many points, you'll pass. Common mistakes students make include stalling at startup or inaccurate parking positions, each potentially costing 5-10 points. The key is to simulate the test frequently during practice, not just focusing on fixed items but balancing overall skills. For example, steering should be precise, and don't panic when checking mirrors while reversing. In actual teaching, I guide students to analyze their error records to ensure they understand the rules. The 80-point threshold is a safety line aimed at cultivating safe driving habits—don't chase perfection at the expense of basics. If you fail Subject 2, don't worry; there are many retake opportunities. Just keep practicing.

Thinking back to the year I took my driver's license test, the passing score for Subject 2 was indeed 80 points. With a total score of 100, one had to be extra careful after each mistake that incurred point deductions. I almost didn't make it because I lost some points for exceeding the time limit during parallel parking. Fortunately, I performed steadily in other sections. Looking at young people taking the test now, the standards haven't changed much, but the equipment is more advanced. The key is to practice the field exercises more and get familiar with controlling the clutch and brakes. Maintaining a good mindset during the test is crucial—don't get distracted by nearby vehicles. Scoring 80 isn't too difficult as long as you diligently follow your coach's instructions during practice, unlike me who played around and delayed my progress. After passing, driving becomes more confident. My advice to beginners is not to stress; with systematic practice for a week or two, you can pass.
