Will You Get Wet During the Vehicle Inspection in Driving Test Subject 3 on Rainy Days?

It depends on the actual situation of the examination site. In some places, you can wear a raincoat or use an umbrella. Here are some precautions for taking Driving Test Subject 3 on rainy days: 1. Control your speed: Drive at a controlled speed during rainy conditions. It's advisable to drive slightly slower than your usual training speed during the test. Safety comes first, and passing the test should be ensured under safe conditions. 2. Passing through waterlogged sections: When passing through areas with standing water or under overpasses where the road is flooded, shift to a lower gear, maintain steady throttle, and proceed at a low speed. Never stop midway, shift gears, or make sharp turns, as this may cause the vehicle to stall and affect your test results.
As a seasoned driving instructor who frequently accompanies students during their tests, I can confirm that it's indeed easy to get wet during the pre-drive vehicle inspection (Item 3) on rainy days. Most test sites are outdoors without shelters, requiring examinees to walk around the vehicle to check the body, tires, lights, etc. The rain directly pours on you, and strong winds can make it even more unpleasant. I recommend wearing a lightweight raincoat or bringing a sturdy umbrella beforehand to prevent soaked shoes from affecting comfort. This actually simulates real driving scenarios – after all, you'll encounter wind and rain during daily driving, so getting accustomed early is beneficial. Although getting wet is uncomfortable, maintaining focus to complete the test is more crucial. The key is to prepare adequate gear and not be careless.
