You cannot schedule the Subject 2 test at 12 PM. Here is some relevant knowledge about Subject 2: Time limits for Subject 2: Failing to complete reversing into the garage within 210 seconds results in disqualification. Exceeding 90 seconds for parallel parking leads to disqualification. Taking your eyes off the driving direction for more than 2 seconds during driving results in disqualification. Failing to start within 10 seconds when there are no other vehicles or pedestrians affecting passage leads to disqualification. Turning the steering wheel less than 3 seconds after signaling for starting, turning, changing lanes, overtaking, or parking results in disqualification. Tips for Subject 2: After starting the engine and before moving the car, the driver should first press the clutch pedal to disengage the clutch, separating the engine from the drivetrain. Then, shift the transmission into gear and gradually release the clutch pedal to engage the clutch. During this process, the resistance torque on the engine gradually increases, so the accelerator pedal should be pressed gradually at the same time, which means progressively increasing the fuel supply to the engine. This ensures the engine speed remains at the lowest stable level without stalling.

When it comes to scheduling the Subject 2 (driving test) appointment, I have quite a bit of experience to share. Many trainees I meet often stay up late swiping their phones, thinking they can grab a slot when the system is less busy at midnight. In reality, the traffic management platform has fixed operating hours and usually closes by 10 PM at the latest. If you try clicking "Schedule" at midnight, you’ll most likely see a system maintenance page. I’ve tried it out of curiosity before—it’s impossible to submit an application. The reliable approach is to book during the day, especially between 2 PM and 4 PM when the system is stable, and driving school staff can easily confirm the details. Besides, test slots aren’t even scheduled for nighttime, so booking a midnight slot is pointless. My advice? Set an alarm and schedule it early in the morning to avoid peak traffic hours—it’s far more practical.

When I was getting my driver's license, I looked into this timing issue. The 12123 traffic management system doesn't operate 24/7. It usually undergoes database maintenance and upgrades during early morning hours, especially between 11 PM and 6 AM when even the login page often fails to load. Even if you occasionally manage to access the booking page, a pop-up will notify you it's outside working hours when submitting. The driving test center's system syncs with this, so there's literally no one reviewing booking information at midnight. From my experience, it's best to make reservations after 9:30 AM on weekdays when the system is smoothest right after maintenance. Another trick is to pay attention to driving school group notifications - they'll immediately announce any exam schedule changes in the group, saving you the hassle of constantly refreshing the app.

Scheduling for Subject 2 requires consideration of both system availability and venue arrangements. The traffic management platform's reservation service is typically open from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with data synchronization and maintenance occurring overnight. Examination venues, however, only schedule tests during daytime hours and remain closed at night. This means that even if the system technically permits reservations during late-night hours, there are no corresponding exam slots available. In practice, it is recommended that candidates choose available time slots around 9:00 AM or 2:00 PM for scheduling, as system load is lower during these periods and conflicts with maintenance times are avoided. Additionally, be aware that the platform tends to experience slowdowns during peak periods near the scheduling deadline, so it's best to complete the operation two or three days in advance.
