Can I Start Learning Subject 2 Only After Passing Subject 1?
1 Answers
Yes, you can only start learning Subject 2 after passing Subject 1. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the waiting period between Subject 1 and Subject 2 varies depending on the type of license. For a C-class license, you can schedule Subject 2 10 days after passing Subject 1, while for A and B-class licenses, you must wait 20 days. This provides ample time to prepare for Subject 2. Each time you schedule Subject 2, you have two exam attempts. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it once for free. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the exam session ends. Within the validity period of your driving permit, you can schedule Subject 2 no more than five times. If you fail the fifth attempt, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. To continue learning, you must restart the process from Subject 1. For example, the C1 license Subject 2 exam includes: Completing designated driving tasks within a specified area; demonstrating proficiency in vehicle control; and assessing spatial judgment skills. Subject 2, also known as the "small road test," consists of five mandatory tasks: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turn, and curve driving. Some regions include a sixth task: highway toll card collection. Subject 2 Exam Tips: After getting into the car, adjust the seat and mirrors to a comfortable position and fasten your seatbelt. For parallel parking, find the correct angle quickly, turn the steering wheel promptly, and coordinate with the car's speed. During hill starts, remember to engage the handbrake, signal left, release the handbrake, and balance the clutch and throttle to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turns, react swiftly after identifying the turning point and match the car's speed to prevent misalignment. For curve driving (S-turn), slow down. Those with good driving sense can pass smoothly in one go. When reversing into a parking space, control the speed, identify reference points, and make minor adjustments if needed by checking the mirrors. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1 (traffic laws and regulations), Subject 2 (field driving skills), and Subject 3 (road driving skills and safe driving knowledge). The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, often referred to as "Subject 4," though this term is unofficial and not mentioned in the official regulations (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123).
