Can Subject Two and Subject Three Be Taken on the Same Day?
3 Answers
Subject Two and Subject Three can be taken on the same day, but only in a few regions. Generally, they need to be taken separately with a required time interval. Below are some considerations for the driving test: 1. Exam Scheduling: The vehicle management office arranges the test according to the scheduled test center and time. After passing Subject One, the applicant can schedule Subject Two or Subject Three (road driving skills test). If the vehicle management office cannot arrange the test within 60 days, the applicant can choose another test center within the province. 2. Scheduling Methods: The vehicle management office uses a nationally unified exam scheduling system, providing options such as internet, phone, and service counters for applicants to schedule their tests.
I still remember my experience of taking the driver's license test. Subject 2 was the field skills test, such as reverse parking and parallel parking, which required high concentration. Subject 3 was the road test, involving actual driving on the road, which was quite stressful. In my time, these two subjects were usually taken on separate days because the test center's schedule didn't allow them to be conducted consecutively in one day. But now I've heard that policies have changed in some places, such as big cities or highly efficient driving schools, where they might arrange both tests on the same day, but you need to book and confirm in advance. Personally, I think taking two subjects in one day isn't ideal, as it can lead to fatigue and affect test performance. Safety comes first, and the driving test is related to future driving habits, so it's better to have a few days in between to prepare fully before taking the next subject.
Currently, I'm learning to drive at a driving school and have just finished the theory test (Subject 1), preparing for the yard test and road test. I asked my instructor, and he said theoretically, it's possible to take Subject 2 and Subject 3 on the same day, depending on the test center's availability, but you need to schedule the time in advance. I think this is quite convenient as it saves the hassle of going back and forth, but the prerequisite is that you've practiced solidly and can stay relaxed, otherwise, it can be too exhausting in one day and may lead to mistakes. A friend of mine tried to complete the yard test in the morning and the road test in the afternoon but failed the road test because it was too rushed. So my suggestion is to first assess your energy level before deciding, discuss more with your instructor, and don't push yourself too hard—after all, failing means you'll have to retake it and spend more time.
