Can I Take the Subject 2 Driving Test During National Day?
2 Answers
National Day is not available for the Subject 2 driving test. Reasons why the test cannot be taken during National Day: The Subject 2 driving test cannot be taken during National Day because it is a statutory holiday designated by the state, which is a special holiday period. During this time, staff at the vehicle management office are on leave. Generally, driving license tests are scheduled on regular working days, i.e., from Monday to Friday. Tests are not available on weekends and state-designated holidays, but you can make an appointment online to take the test on a working day. Introduction to Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is the abbreviation for the field driving skill test. For small cars (C1 and C2), the test items include five mandatory components: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving.
I just passed my Subject 2 driving test last month, and whether you can take the test during National Day holiday really depends on the specific test center arrangements. Usually during national statutory holidays like the seven-day National Day holiday, most local vehicle management offices and test centers will close for three to five days, as staff also need rest. I remember our local test site was closed for four days during last year's National Day holiday, only sporadically opening in the later days. If you want to try taking the test during the holiday, I suggest immediately downloading the Driving Test Guide app or checking the latest exam schedule on your local vehicle management office website. Some big cities may add extra test sessions towards the end of the holiday, but you'll need to be quick to secure a spot. However, holiday testing has its advantages too, like shorter queues, convenient transportation, and being able to focus more on practice. In short, advance preparation is key - don't wait until just before the holiday to ask around, or you might delay your progress.
