Can I transfer to another location to take the fourth driving test if I fail?

You can transfer to another location to take the fourth driving test after failing, as long as you complete the necessary procedures. Process for taking the test in a different location: Students only need to bring their ID card and photos to the local vehicle management office to apply for the fourth driving test in a different location. Some places may require affiliation with a driving school or charge an additional fee for the transfer. For specific details, please consult the local vehicle management office. Notes for taking the test in a different location: On June 1, 2019, the public security authorities implemented the "National Unified Examination." Additionally, if an applicant has completed part of the test and needs to change their residence due to work, study, or other reasons, they can apply once to continue the test in a different location. However, they cannot change back, and all subsequent tests and the issuance of the license will be conducted at the last confirmed residence.
I failed the subject four exam recently and felt a bit down, but later found out I could transfer to another location for the test, so I gave it a try. Guess what? The process went quite smoothly! First, I contacted my original driving school, and they helped transfer my records. Then, I just needed to bring my ID card to register at the vehicle management office in the new city. This way, I avoided the awkwardness at the original test center, and the new place had fewer people, making it easier to focus. The key is that the national driving test system is interconnected, so I didn’t have to start from scratch—just schedule a retest directly. I recommend finding a test center close to home or in a familiar environment, checking the route in advance, and bringing photos and a copy of the driving school certificate. Don’t worry if you fail; a little effort can solve the problem, and the pursuit of safe driving continues.
