Can I Take the Driving Test Subject 3 If I Lost My ID Card?
2 Answers
A temporary ID card can be used as a substitute for the original ID card when taking the Subject 3 driving test. A temporary ID card holds the same legal validity as a regular ID card and can be used as a formal ID within its 3-month validity period. Materials required for ID card replacement: Original household registration booklet of the applicant. Completed "Resident ID Card Application Form". "Replacement Certificate" of the applicant. ID photo receipt (taken at a photography studio designated by the household registration department) or on-site photo collection. Application process: Visit the local police station and request the household registration officer to issue a replacement certificate for the lost ID card. Bring your household registration booklet, replacement certificate, photo information (ID photo receipt), and the completed "Resident ID Card Application Form" to the document processing window. The window officer will review the application materials. If approved: Pay the applicable fees and receive a "Certificate Collection Notice". If rejected: The responsible officer will explain the reasons. Collect the new resident ID card at the designated location by presenting the "Certificate Collection Notice" at the specified time. Note: Residents who act as proxies or collect IDs on behalf of others must present their own ID cards.

Buddy, I've seen quite a few students run into this issue since I got my driver's license. If you've lost your ID card, you definitely can't take the third subject test. On exam day, they check your identification at the entrance, and without it, you won't even get through the door. Back when I was learning, a classmate of mine made a wasted trip because he forgot his ID—not only did he lose the registration fee, but he also had to reschedule. I'd advise you to hurry to the local police station to get a temporary ID. Bring your household registration book or social security card, but make sure to call the test center in advance to confirm which documents they accept. For driving tests, identity verification is a hard rule—no joking around. Safety comes first when driving, so it's best to sort out the small details. Get into the habit of organizing your documents properly to avoid last-minute chaos. It's just not worth it to mess up your learning progress over something like this.
