Will the Subject 2 Test Add New Items on October 1st?
2 Answers
2020 October 1st did not add new items to the Subject 2 test. According to Article 25 of the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses' (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), the Subject 2 test includes the following items for small cars, small automatic transmission cars, small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled, and low-speed trucks: reversing into a garage, stopping and starting on a slope (canceled from June 1, 2021), parallel parking, curve driving, and right-angle turning. Below is additional information: Passing criteria: The full score is 100 points, with evaluation standards set for failing, deducting 20 points, deducting 10 points, and deducting 5 points. The test is passed if the following conditions are met: For large passenger cars, tractors, city buses, medium-sized passenger cars, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required; for other vehicle types, a score of 80 is required.
As an experienced driving instructor with many years of experience, I don’t think it’s likely that new items will be added to Subject 2 on October 1st. The driving test items for Subject 2 are usually updated at the beginning of the year, such as when the driving test department releases new standards after New Year's Day. October 1st is the National Day holiday, and the driving test centers are usually closed during this period, so they wouldn’t suddenly add new items at this time. Among the students I taught last year, the test items remained unchanged throughout the year, still focusing on basic operations like reversing into a parking space and parallel parking. If you’re worried about changes, I suggest you call your local driving school directly or check the official website of the traffic management bureau for real-time announcements. During regular training, practice the basic items more, and you’ll be able to handle the test with ease. Safety is the most important thing.
