Are the test results still retained after obtaining a driver's license?

After obtaining a driver's license, the test results are still retained. Here are the extended details: 1. Query address: After obtaining the driver's license, you cannot check the results online. However, the archives are kept by the vehicle management office, which contains the transcripts of each subject. You can only check them at the vehicle management office. After the vehicle management office verifies the validity of the test results, the information is usually entered on the same day (within 2 working days). As for the appointment query platform, it takes 1 to 2 working days to update. After the applicant passes all the tests and obtains the driver's license, the appointment query platform will clear the related learning records. 2. Validity period of the driving skills test permit: Each subject can be taken once, and if failed, it can be retaken once. If you do not participate in the retake or fail the retake, the current test is terminated, and you need to reschedule the test. Within the 3-year validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of scheduled tests for Subject 2 and Subject 3 (road driving skills) cannot exceed 5 times, meaning there are a total of 10 test opportunities for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills. If the 5th scheduled test is still failed, the previously passed subjects will be invalidated. There is no limit to the number of scheduled tests for Subject 1 and Subject 4 (safety and civilized driving knowledge test).
As soon as I got my driver's license, I felt there was no need to keep the test results since passing meant I didn't have to worry anymore. In reality, driving schools archive them for a short period but clear them out after a while. The key is to focus on driving safely now. Remembering the traffic rules from the test is crucial—I often watch traffic safety videos to avoid forgetting. If you're stopped for a random check on the road, you might have to demonstrate your knowledge, so don't relax completely. The licensing system mainly checks your current legal status, not past test scores. I think new drivers should practice more and not just rely on the license—safety is what truly matters.
