Can You Practice Subject 2 Without Passing Subject 1?

You can practice Subject 2 without passing Subject 1. The driving test subjects are: 1. Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; 2. Subject 2: Field driving skills test, including items such as reversing into a garage, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, driving on a curve, and parallel parking; 3. Subject 3: Road driving skills test, including basic items such as preparing to start, driving straight, changing lanes, passing intersections, pulling over, making U-turns, and driving at night; 4. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving knowledge, testing related knowledge of safe and civilized driving.
Let me explain from the perspective of driving test regulations. The driver's license examination process follows a strict sequence: you must first pass the theoretical road knowledge test (Subject 1) before starting practical training for Subject 2's operational skills. The reason is straightforward: Subject 1 teaches foundational theoretical knowledge like traffic signals and safety rules, which form the basis of driving. Subject 2 involves field operations such as reverse parking or hill starts, requiring you to understand these theories to correctly apply maneuvers during practice. Skipping Subject 1 and jumping straight into vehicle operation may lead to overlooked details, causing operational errors or safety risks. In reality, I've seen driving schools strictly enforce this rule—only permitting practice after passing Subject 1. My advice for beginners: don't rush. Spend time preparing for the theory test, practice with question banks thoroughly, and proceed to Subject 2 step by step after passing. This approach ensures both efficient learning and safety. The entire process is quite smooth—just remember to find an experienced instructor who can help you avoid detours.
