Can the successful appointment for the Subject 1 exam be canceled?
3 Answers
Subject 1 exam appointment can be canceled if the applicant is unable to attend at the scheduled time. The applicant must apply to cancel the appointment at least one day in advance. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, includes the following content as per the regulations for obtaining and using a motor vehicle driving license: basic driving theory, road safety laws and regulations, and knowledge of local regulations. A driving license, commonly referred to as a driver's license, is an official document issued by the government's transportation department to individuals who qualify to drive. It is typically a card. To obtain a driving license, one must meet the age requirement and pass the driving test.
Yes, you can definitely cancel after successfully booking the subject one exam. I have canceled several times myself. You need to log in to the official website of the traffic management department or the 12123 app, find the cancellation option on your personal booking page. The operation is simple, just a few clicks on the screen. Cancellation generally needs to be completed 24 or 48 hours before the exam, depending on the local policy. For example, in Shanghai, it's free to cancel two days in advance. If you cancel late, a small handling fee may be charged or it might affect your next booking eligibility. Last time I had to work overtime unexpectedly, I canceled two days in advance without any issues. After cancellation, the slot becomes available for others to book, which is quite user-friendly. It's advisable to make your decision early and not wait until the last day to avoid app glitches. Overall, it's more reliable to plan your study time well and take the exam when you're fully prepared.
Of course, you can cancel it, and I have personal experience with this. I still remember when I scheduled my Subject 1 test for the first time, I was too nervous and didn't study enough, so I canceled it using the 12123 app on my phone three days before the exam, without spending a penny. The rules require you to cancel at least 24 hours in advance to avoid affecting other candidates in the queue. Nowadays, digital management makes it very convenient—just open the app and select cancel, unlike in the past when you had to visit the vehicle management office. After canceling, remember to reschedule soon to avoid missing out due to full slots. Personally, I advise against canceling too often, as it wastes opportunities and delays progress. Subject 1 is foundational, so practice more questions and prepare well before taking it to increase your chances of success.
