Why Do People Fail the Oncoming Vehicle Section in Driving Test Part 3?
1 Answers
Failing to steer right when meeting oncoming vehicles. One test item in Driving Test Part 3 is the oncoming vehicle section. When the audio prompt plays, candidates must not only decelerate to below 30km/h, but also appropriately steer slightly right to maintain safe distance from opposing traffic. Key points to note for Part 3: 1. Not yielding to oncoming vehicles when braking: During this section, candidates should gently brake while steering right to reduce speed below 30km/h, safely avoiding approaching vehicles. Many neglect this crucial detail. 2. Speed below 30km/h during overtaking: Candidates will be penalized if their speed doesn't exceed 30km/h during simulated overtaking. With electronic scoring, all speed data is monitored in real-time. 3. Stalling due to operational errors: Stalling frequently occurs due to nervousness - candidates often forget to depress the clutch when braking, causing poor pedal coordination. Other common mistakes include not honking when starting, or parking over 30cm from curb.
