Will points be deducted for an unaligned vehicle body in Subject 2?
2 Answers
In the driving test Subject 2 examination, points will not be deducted for an unaligned vehicle body, but points will be deducted if the vehicle body crosses the line. Situations where points are deducted for the vehicle body crossing the line include: during reverse parking, crossing the line results in a 100-point deduction. In the pole test, if the vehicle body crosses the line or the wheels of a two-wheeled motorcycle cross the line, a 100-point deduction is applied. For hill start and stop, if the vehicle body is more than 750px away from the road edge line after stopping, a 10-point deduction is applied. For parallel parking, if the vehicle body crosses the line after stopping in the parking space, a 100-point deduction is applied. Additional information: For the Subject 2 test, the corresponding test site and vehicle should be selected based on the type of driving license being applied for. The pole test is conducted under the supervision of the examiner, while other test items must be completed independently and continuously by the applicant following the designated test route, operational standards, and test instructions.
When it comes to the car body not being aligned in Subject 2, as a veteran driver with over ten years of experience, I must tell you, this will definitely cost you points! Back when I took my driving test, I lost 10 points because the car body wasn’t aligned with the lines after reversing into the parking spot. Misalignment has a huge impact—for example, during parallel parking, if the wheels are crooked, the system or examiner can tell at a glance and directly judge the position as incorrect. Subject 2 emphasizes precision and stability; a misaligned car body can cause the entire task to fail, easily leading to a failing grade. Remember, during practice, use the rearview mirrors more to observe and slowly adjust your direction based on the parking lines. If you notice misalignment, correct it immediately. During the test, don’t rush—stay steady and practice a few more times, and you’ll get it right.
