Can I Wear a Watch During the Subject 1 Test?
2 Answers
Yes, you can wear a watch. Here is some additional information about the Subject 1 test: 1. Subject 1: The total duration of the Subject 1 test is 45 minutes, with a full score of 100 points and a passing score of 90. The test paper consists of 100 questions, including true/false questions and single-choice questions. The test paper is randomly selected and combined by the computer driver's test system according to the proportion specified in the "Motor Vehicle Driver's License Work Regulations." 2. Subject 1 Test Content: The questions for the Subject 1 test are based on the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses." The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The test format is computer-based.
I remember specifically asking my driving instructor if I could wear a watch during the theory test, and he advised me not to take the risk. On exam day, I saw a notice on the wall clearly stating that no electronic devices were allowed in the test room, including smartwatches. But what about regular mechanical watches? The staff gave a vague explanation, saying it depended on the specific requirements of each test center. I personally witnessed a candidate wearing a regular watch being asked to remove it at the security check and store it in a locker, which was quite embarrassing. Later, I asked a few people from the same test batch and found that some had indeed worn non-electronic watches without issues, while others were stopped. It seems to depend on luck, but if you don't want to risk delaying your exam time, it's safest to just leave your watch at home.
