Can I take the test if I am late for Subject 4?
2 Answers
You can still take the test if you are late for Subject 4, but you need to explain the situation to the staff at the driving test center to arrange for the next available test session. Below is an introduction to the content of the Subject 4 test: 1. Operational requirements: Safe and civilized driving operation requirements. 2. Safe driving: Knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions. 3. Emergency handling: Methods for handling critical situations such as a tire blowout. 4. Accident handling: Knowledge of what to do after a traffic accident. Below is extended information about the content of the Subject 3 test: 1. Starting: Vehicle preparation, starting, and driving in a straight line. 2. Speed control: Gear shifting, lane changing, and parking by the roadside. 3. Turning: Going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, and turning right at intersections. 4. Passing designated areas: Passing pedestrian crossings, school zones, and bus stops. 5. Vehicle control: Meeting other vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and driving at night.
I've seen plenty of exams, but being late is something you really need to be careful about. Subject 4 is the final part of the driving test, and most test centers require you to arrive on time—typically, if you're more than 15 to 30 minutes late, you won't be allowed in. I remember a friend who was 20 minutes late last time and was stopped right at the door, wasting the trip and having to reschedule. This is mainly because the exam process is fixed, and being late can disrupt order and safety inside. So it's best to arrive half an hour early and check the route to avoid traffic. Subject 4 mainly tests knowledge of civilized driving, and punctuality is the first lesson in safety. The same goes for other exams in life—developing the habit of arriving early saves trouble and stress. If you really can't make it on time, call the test center staff directly—there might be exceptions, but don't count on it.
