Which lane should you enter when making a left turn in Subject 3?
2 Answers
In Subject 3, make a left turn into the fast lane and a right turn into the slow lane. Here are some tips for the Subject 3 test: 1. Follow the instructions: Listen carefully to the voice prompts during Subject 3 and act accordingly. Remember not to perform any actions before the voice prompt ends; always wait until the prompt is complete before proceeding to the next step. 2. Pay attention to special zones: In many areas, voice prompts no longer remind you of special zones such as school zones, bus stops, and crosswalks. However, candidates must perform corresponding deceleration or yielding actions based on the roadside signs and road markings. For school zones, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, keeping the speed below 30 km/h. For bus stops, apply the brakes within 10 meters of the sign, keeping the speed below 30 km/h. For crosswalks, decelerate by applying the brakes within 30 meters before the crossing, and stop to yield if pedestrians are crossing.
During my driving test for Subject 3, the target lane after a left turn is the nearest left lane to you. For example, after making a left turn at an intersection, you should enter the first lane on the left after turning. This is a key point from my personal experience, as entering the wrong lane during the test can easily lead to point deductions or even failure. The instructor repeatedly emphasized that this rule is based on safety considerations: not cutting directly into the middle or right lane during a turn helps avoid collisions with vehicles going straight and improves overall traffic flow. During practice, I found it crucial to maintain a low speed while turning, signal in advance, and closely monitor the rearview mirrors. I remember during a mock test, I almost entered the wrong lane but corrected it in time. On the test day, I passed smoothly by following this rule. Beginners often overlook this point, but once it becomes a habit, daily driving feels more secure. If the road conditions are special or there are signs, always check the signs first and adjust accordingly.
