Why did I fail the gear shifting in Subject Three for no apparent reason?
1 Answers
Failing the gear shifting in Subject Three for no apparent reason is because: During the 100-meter gear shifting exercise in Subject Three, when using the right hand to shift gears, the left hand struggles to maintain control of the steering, ultimately leading to unstable direction and failing the test. Below are the reasons for unstable direction during gear shifting: 1. Unfamiliarity with gear positions: Lack of familiarity and unskilled operation can result in excessive force when shifting gears. 2. Overuse of the left hand: Gripping the steering wheel too tightly with the left hand while the right hand forcefully shifts gears can cause imbalance in force application, leading to steering wheel wobbling and unstable vehicle direction. 3. Seat obstruction: Since the test requires the examinee to keep their eyes on the road ahead, shifting gears should naturally be done by extending the left hand downward. If the seat and backrest are not properly adjusted from the start, the unreasonable angle of the seat can hinder the examinee's ability to shift gears smoothly, making it difficult to grip the gear lever properly and resulting in unstable shifting, which can easily cause directional deviation.
