Will points be deducted if the rearview mirror crosses the line in Subject 2?

In the Subject 2 reverse parking test, generally no points are deducted if the rearview mirror crosses the line. Below is a detailed introduction to the driving license test: 1. Subjects: The test is conducted in the order of Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4. 2. Retake: For driving tests, Subject 2 and Subject 3 can only be taken five times each. If you fail, you will need to pay the tuition and practice fees again. According to the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123 and No. 124, if you fail the fifth scheduled test for Subject 2 or Subject 3 road driving skills, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. To obtain a driver's license, you will need to re-enroll and pay the driving school tuition.
During my driving test for Subject 2, the instructor repeatedly reminded me not to let the mirrors touch the lines, as doing so would indicate the car was out of position and result in immediate point deductions. In maneuvers like reversing into a parking space or parallel parking, if the mirrors touch the ground lines, the examiner would rule it as a body violation, potentially leading to an instant fail. I once made a mistake due to nervousness and shaky hands, but luckily it was just practice. The key is to practice adjusting the rearview mirror angle in advance, ensuring the car aligns with the lane lines, and to use the interior rearview mirror in conjunction with the side mirrors for observation—don’t rely solely on the side mirrors. Additionally, mirrors are prone to touching lines during turns, so be extra cautious with speed and steering. In short, the test rules are strict—touching lines means point deductions, so develop good habits during practice, using mirrors to judge position without cutting corners.
