What lights should be used when driving straight through an intersection in Subject 3?

In the voice light test of Subject 3 exam, when hearing the instruction to drive straight through an intersection, the student should use the low beam. Here is the relevant information: 1. Subject 3: Subject 3, including the road driving skills test and the safety and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's test. The content of the road driving skills test varies for different types of vehicles. 2. Exam tips: When hearing the voice announcement "Approaching intersection," the examinee should brake to reduce speed, observe the traffic conditions on both sides, and pass safely. At signalized intersections, drive according to the traffic lights. If the vehicle cannot proceed due to traffic congestion, stop the vehicle outside the safety line and wait. Parking within the intersection is prohibited.

As someone who just got my license last year, here are three key points to remember for driving straight through intersections in Subject 3: First, slow down and switch to low beams 50 meters in advance—high beams are both glaring and illegal. Second, keep your eyes fixed on the traffic lights without distraction; stop when the green light starts flashing. Third, the beam must always point straight ahead—never jerk the steering wheel and skew the light. Our instructor specifically emphasized that any light wobble in the crosswalk area means an instant fail. Last time during the mock test, a guy in the next lane learned this the hard way: he signaled properly but his hands shook during the turn, causing the beam to waver, and the examiner failed him on the spot for dangerous driving.

As a driving instructor who frequently trains students, I always focus on three things when approaching an intersection: the timing to turn on the low beams must be completed before the solid line, not delayed until the crosswalk; the beam height should cover the road 15 meters ahead, as too low would make it hard to see pedestrians on the crosswalk; what I fear most is students getting so nervous that they mistakenly twist the light switch like the windshield wiper. Last week, the young man I was training suddenly turned off the headlights when the traffic light turned green, and if I hadn't promptly stepped on the auxiliary brake, we would have collided with a food delivery scooter rushing through the yellow light. The key points in the lighting test are stability and safety awareness.

Just accompanied my child to practice for the Subject 3 driving test and noticed many people overlook details. When driving straight through an intersection, low beam headlights must be used throughout, and turn signals are only for turning. Pay special attention during the night simulation test: do not use high beams instead of constant low beams, and the light beam angle must be perpendicular to the road surface. Last time, one of the candidates in my child's batch was detected by infrared for having the light beam tilted upwards by just 1 degree beyond the standard angle, and the system directly ruled it as incorrect use of lights. It seemed unfair, but rules are rules.
