Can I use something else if I don't have my ID card for the Subject 2 test?

No, you must have the original ID card to take the test. Here is some information about Subject 2: Overview: 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 skills test subject. Others: If you fail the Subject 2 test for the first time, you can retake it once. If you do not take the retest or still fail the retest, the test will be terminated, and the applicant should reschedule the test after ten days. Within the validity period of the driving skills test permit, the number of scheduled tests for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests cannot exceed five times.
On the morning of my last driving test (Subject 2), I overslept and left home in a hurry, forgetting my ID card. I only realized it when I arrived at the test center, which made me really nervous. The staff said I could temporarily use my passport as a substitute, so I rushed back home to get it and was able to enter the test center smoothly. Passports are internationally recognized documents, and as long as they contain complete information, they are acceptable. After the test, I asked my driving school instructor, who said that if I didn’t have an ID card, I could also use my original driver’s license if I had one, but for Subject 2 tests, they usually only accept primary documents like ID cards or passports. I recommend checking your document bag the night before the test and placing it in a fixed spot instead of leaving it around randomly. The test itself is stressful enough—don’t let small things like documents add to the trouble. In some cities, you can also apply for a temporary ID card, but you’ll need to visit the police station in advance. In short, bringing the original document is the most hassle-free, and a passport is a good backup option. Remembering these small tips can make the test much easier.
