Can I Take Subject 4 Before Subjects 2 and 3?
2 Answers
You cannot take Subject 4 before Subjects 2 and 3, as you need the transcript of Subject 3 to take Subject 4. Therefore, you must take Subject 3 first. Below is some information about the test location and passing criteria for Subject 4: Introduction to Subject 4: "Subject 4" is the "Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test" of Subject 3. It is the final part of Subject 3, but the test is conducted in a computer room rather than in a motor vehicle. It is taken only after passing the on-road test of Subject 3, which is why it is separately referred to as "Subject 4." Passing Criteria for Subject 4: The Subject 4 test consists of 50 questions, presented in the form of case studies, images, animations, etc. The maximum score is 100, and a score of 90 or above is required to pass.
As someone who has driven for many years, I believe it's impossible to take the subject four test before subjects two and three. The driver's license exam process is designed with subject one testing theoretical rules and regulations, followed by subject two for field driving skills, and subject three for actual road operation. Only after passing subject three can you take subject four, which is a summary of safe and civilized driving. The reason is simple: you must first master the basics of actual driving before applying safety knowledge in the theoretical test. If you skip the earlier subjects, the exam system will automatically reject your registration because it has logical checks for sequence dependencies. Moreover, traffic safety is a serious matter. Without solid road experience, relying solely on the theoretical knowledge of subject four can easily lead to mistakes in practice. I recommend everyone follow the proper sequence in driving practice, don't rush, and aim for thoroughness from the start. Driving isn't just about getting a license; it's the beginning of cultivating good habits.
