Can You Still Take the Test After Using Up All Five Attempts for Subject One?
2 Answers
Subject One can be taken continuously even after failing five times. Failing Subject One means not obtaining the driving skill test permit, which is equivalent to not having successfully applied, so you can keep applying until you pass. Here is relevant information about the number of attempts for the driver's license test: The number of scheduled test attempts for Subject Two and Subject Three (road driving skills test) must not exceed five. Each subject test allows one attempt, and if failed, a retake is permitted. If you do not attend the retake or fail the retake, the current test session ends, and the applicant must schedule a new test. However, Subject Two and Subject Three tests can only be rescheduled after ten days. In other words, Subject Two and Subject Three each have five retake opportunities, while Subject One and Subject Four (the theoretical test for Subject Three) have no limit on the number of attempts.
Just went through this, let me tell you, failing the theory test (Subject 1) five times really means you can't retake it anymore. Those are the rules—each test subject only gives you five attempts, and once you've used them up, you have to start over: re-enroll in driving school, pay the fees again, and re-study the theory. Last time, I heard about a friend who failed four times and was so scared that he crammed practice questions to avoid a fifth failure. If you've already failed five times, don't panic; immediately contact a new driving school to enroll. The whole process might cost you around a couple thousand yuan, but starting over with more practice helps—theory prep apps are quite useful. Put in the extra effort, and you'll usually pass on your second enrollment. Remember, don’t waste time dwelling on the past; take initiative to study. Traffic rules aren’t that hard once you understand them, and driving instructors often offer extra help too.
