Can the Subject One Exam Be Taken Twice?
1 Answers
The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses" clearly stipulate that the Subject One exam can be taken twice on the same day. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second free retake is allowed. If the second attempt is also unsuccessful, the Subject One exam for that day is terminated, and the candidate can only schedule another exam after ten days. Subject One, also known as the Subject One Theory Exam or Driver Theory Exam, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score for Subject One is 90 out of 100 questions, which consist of single-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject One Exam Content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic motor vehicle knowledge; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject One Exam Notes: Candidates should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen before entering the exam room, and store personal items in lockers. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is properly aligned and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it; unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject One exam. Each subject allows one exam attempt with one retake if unsuccessful. If you skip the retake or fail it, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject Two and Subject Three only allow five exam attempts each, with rescheduling permitted after ten days. If the Subject Three safe driving knowledge exam is failed, the previously passed road driving skills exam results remain valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject One, Subject Two, and Subject Three. Subject One covers traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject Two tests field driving skills. Subject Three is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge exam is conducted after Subject Three, so it is commonly referred to as Subject Four, though this term is not officially recognized in the regulations (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123).
