During Subject 3 at night, you should alternately use the high and low beams at least twice when passing a crosswalk. Below is the relevant introduction: Subject 3: Subject 3 includes the road driving skills test and the safety and civilized driving knowledge test, which are 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 in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed. Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge: The safety and civilized driving knowledge test for Subject 3 includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.
During the nighttime driving test for Subject 3, special attention must be paid to light operations when crossing pedestrian crossings. My driving instructor repeatedly emphasized this point when I was getting my license. Remember, you must use low beams when passing through pedestrian crossings because high beams can blind pedestrians and easily lead to accidents. During the test, you should switch to low beams about 30 meters before approaching the pedestrian crossing, while reducing speed to under 30km/h, and carefully check both sides for any pedestrians about to cross. When passing through, maintain a steady speed without sudden braking, keep the light setting unchanged, and only resume normal driving after completely passing. During my test, I almost failed because I forgot to switch to low beams, but fortunately reacted in time. In daily practice, simulate such scenarios frequently and be thoroughly familiar with the light switch positions. Examiners love to pick on these details, so don't give them any reason to deduct points. In short, safety comes first – using lights correctly protects both yourself and pedestrians.
