Can a Temporary ID be Used for the Driving Test (Subject Three)?

[DeAiden]

Yes. A temporary ID card holds the same legal validity as an official document and can be used as an identification document for applications during its 3-month validity period. Article 14 of the "Interim ID Card Management Regulations" stipulates: Citizens engaging in relevant activities that require identity verification have the right to use a temporary resident ID card to prove their identity. Relevant institutions and their staff are not allowed to refuse. About Temporary ID Cards: Temporary ID cards have the same legal effect as official ID cards. Residents' identity proofs are either the "Resident ID Card" or the "Temporary Resident ID Card." For mainland residents living temporarily elsewhere, their identity proofs are the "Resident ID Card" or the "Temporary Resident ID Card," along with residence or temporary stay permits issued by public security authorities. To apply for a temporary ID card, one must submit an application at the local police station of their permanent residence, present their household registration booklet, a recent one-inch black-and-white photo (same size as for a resident ID card), and pay the processing fee. For citizens under 16 years old, a guardian must apply on their behalf. If you know your ID is expired before the test, you can first inquire with the driving test center or vehicle management office whether other valid documents (such as a residence permit) can be used. If not, quickly apply for a temporary ID card at the local police station of your registered residence. If you truly cannot obtain a temporary ID in time, cancel the test at the vehicle management office at least one day in advance. This way, it won’t be counted as a failure or absence, and you won’t waste a test attempt. Subject Three offers five test attempts. If you fail once, you get one free retake on the spot. If you fail the retake, the test session ends. Subject Three: Includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test. It is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination and is also the abbreviation for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver examination.
