Can the Written Test for Driver's License (Subject 1) Be Taken Twice On-Site? The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" clearly stipulates that the Subject 1 test can be taken twice on the same day. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, a second attempt is allowed free of charge. If the second attempt also fails, the Subject 1 test for that day is terminated, and the applicant can only reschedule the test after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license examination. The test content includes driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. The passing score for the Subject 1 test is 90 out of 100. The test consists of 100 questions, including single-choice and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the session. Subject 1 Test Content: Regulations on driver's licenses and motor vehicle management; Road traffic conditions and regulations; Road traffic safety violations and penalties; Road traffic accident handling regulations; Basic knowledge of motor vehicles; 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 1 Test Notes: During the test, candidates must pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the examination room. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, find your seat, and begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow test discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is allowed on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, 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 reschedule the Subject 1 test. Each test allows one retake if the first attempt fails. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the test is terminated, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests have only five attempts each. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests can be rescheduled after ten days. If the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test is failed, the previously passed road driving skills test results remain valid. There are three subjects in the driver's license test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4, although the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."
