Does Canceling a Subject Three Appointment Count as One Attempt?
2 Answers
Subject Three appointment cancellation does not count as one attempt; it only counts as a canceled attempt when absent from the exam. Note that the number of cancellations is limited to three. Introduction to Subject Three: Subject Three, which includes the road driving skills test and the safe and civilized driving knowledge test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. It is the abbreviated term for the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test subjects in the motor vehicle driver's examination. The content of the road driving skills test varies depending on the type of vehicle being licensed for. New Regulations for Subject Three: Starting from June 1, 2021, the interval between scheduling the Subject Three exam has been adjusted from 30 days after passing the Subject One exam to 20 days. For those applying for additional licenses for large and medium-sized passenger and truck driving, the interval between scheduling the Subject Three exam has been adjusted from 40 days after passing the Subject One exam to 30 days.
When I was taking my driver's license test, I was particularly worried about this issue. It's clear that canceling two days in advance doesn't count as an attempt, but if you don't show up on the exam day, it's directly treated as a failure. I remember last year my cousin in Shenzhen had a fever and canceled his exam one day in advance through the Traffic Management 12123 app, and it didn't affect his number of attempts at all. However, I must remind everyone that the enforcement standards may vary by local vehicle management offices. Some third- or fourth-tier cities might have stricter requirements. It's best to consult your instructor or check the local traffic management official account before canceling, as the five attempts are extremely precious—wasting one means you'll have to wait in line for another month.
