Can I reschedule the written test for the next day if I missed it?

You cannot reschedule the written test for the next day if you missed it. If you successfully scheduled the test but did not attend, you must first go to the vehicle management office to cancel the scheduled appointment. After cancellation, you must wait for ten days before you can schedule again. The information about the successful appointment will not be automatically canceled if you miss the test; you must specifically go to the vehicle management office to cancel it before rescheduling. Below is an introduction to the relevant content of the driving test subjects: 1. Subject 1: The written test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge (Subject 1) is conducted on a computer, with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above (including 90) is required to pass. 2. Subject 2: The field driving skills test (Subject 2) is conducted in a real vehicle on a closed course. Results are only categorized as pass or fail. The test includes five mandatory items performed in sequence: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, S-curve driving, right-angle turns, and starting and stopping on a slope. The full score is 100, and a score of 80 or above (including 80) is required to pass. 3. Subject 3: The road driving skills test (Subject 3) is conducted on a public road or simulated course in a real vehicle. The full score is 100. For large buses, a score of 90 or above is required to pass; for large trucks, 80 or above; and for other vehicle types, 70 or above. 4. Subject 4: The written test on safe and civilized driving knowledge (Subject 4) has a full score of 100, and a score of 90 or above (including 90) is required to pass.
I've encountered this situation before. I couldn't make it to the subject one exam due to sudden circumstances and wanted to reschedule immediately the next day. But the driving school told me it wasn't possible because the system has regulations requiring a wait of several working days before rebooking. I later learned this is because the test center needs to process absence records and recalculate rankings to prevent people from arbitrarily canceling and immediately occupying slots. I was quite anxious at the time, but the instructor advised me to first check my status on the app to confirm the exam fee wasn't wasted, then patiently wait for notification. Generally, you can schedule the next exam after about three days—the key is to keep your phone accessible. I learned a lesson: set a reminder the day before the exam or visit the test site in advance to avoid last-minute mistakes affecting progress. Don't panic too much during this process; most people have faced similar issues, and as long as handled properly, it won't delay your overall driving plan.
