Which of the following is NOT a component of the Phase III evaluation?

The Phase III evaluation is a critical part of the Army's driver training program, focusing on the practical skills necessary for safe vehicle operation. This phase typically involves comprehensive assessments of both vehicle handling and operational knowledge.

The road test is a practical evaluation of a driver's skills in real-world conditions, allowing instructors to observe driving ability firsthand. The hands-on test assesses the ability to perform specific maneuvers and operations on the vehicle, ensuring that the driver can handle the tasks required for safe operation. PMCS, or Preventive Maintenance Checks and Services, is included as it verifies that drivers understand the maintenance procedures necessary to ensure the vehicle remains in a safe operating condition.

In contrast, a written exam is typically not included in Phase III. While written evaluations may be useful for testing knowledge of regulations or procedures, Phase III is focused on practical application rather than theoretical knowledge. Therefore, it is not a component in this specific evaluation phase.
