Will using windshield wipers in the rain during Subject 2 exam result in point deduction?
2 Answers
Subject 3 exam allows the use of windshield wipers if it rains. Below is relevant information about the Subject 3 exam: 1. Introduction: Subject 3 includes road driving skills test and safety & civilized driving knowledge test, which are part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The road driving skills test content varies for different permitted driving models. 2. Content: The road driving skills test of Subject 3 generally includes: vehicle preparation, light simulation test, starting, straight-line driving, gear shifting operations, lane changing, pulling over, going straight through intersections, left turns at intersections, right turns at intersections, passing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, U-turns, nighttime driving; The safety & civilized driving knowledge test generally includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident disposal knowledge.
During my driving test for Subject 2, it happened to rain, and I was quite nervous. I quickly turned on the windshield wipers, and the examiner didn’t deduct any points. In fact, he praised me for my safety awareness. The test rules are designed to assess your actual driving skills, and using the wipers—a basic safety feature—isn’t something that would cost you points. Driving in the rain requires timely use of wipers to maintain visibility; otherwise, mistakes are more likely. I recommend that beginners practice simulating rainy conditions before the test, familiarize themselves with the wiper controls, stay calm during the exam, and focus on vehicle control rather than stressing over minor details.
