Can I Take the Driver's License Test on Sunday?
2 Answers
You cannot take the driver's license test on Sunday, but you can learn to drive at driving schools on weekends. Candidates need to make an appointment in advance before taking the test: 1. Regular Appointment Mode: According to the published motor vehicle driver examination plan, users can independently select the test site/test area, test time, and test session to submit a test appointment application. Before the deadline for accepting test appointment applications, users can cancel the appointment online. On the day the appointment results are announced, the test plan will close for appointments online. 2. Priority Appointment Mode: The priority appointment service for driver's license tests is only available for applicants whose learning driving certificate is valid for less than 6 months. Each subject can be prioritized for one test appointment online. When students make a priority appointment, according to the published motor vehicle driver examination plan, users can independently select the test site, test time, and test session to submit a test appointment application.
Let me start with my own experience. Last year when I was preparing to take my driver's license test, I specifically asked my driving school instructor if exams were held on Sundays. He told me that most testing centers are closed on Sundays because staff need rest and shift rotations, with exams generally scheduled from Monday to Saturday, occasionally opening for half a day on Saturdays. Living in the city, I checked several test centers, and their official websites showed no Sunday options at all. I recommend you first visit the local DMV website to make an appointment—after entering your personal information, you'll see which days are available. If Sundays are truly not an option, don’t waste your time trying to force it. Getting a driver's license is a big deal. I ended up delaying my plans because I wanted to take the test on a weekend, and when I finally took the theory test on Monday, my hands were shaking from nerves. Practicing more is better than anything—safety comes first. Make sure you’re well-prepared with both theoretical knowledge and practical details, so you can stay steady during the test.
