Does Subject 4 Require an Appointment?
2 Answers
Subject 4 does not require an appointment. Additional information is as follows: 1. Introduction: Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The original examination consisted of the Subject 1 theory test, Subject 2 yard test, electronic Subject test, and Subject 3 road test. Subject 4 separates the requirements for safe and civilized driving, safe driving skills under complex conditions, and emergency handling knowledge from the original Subject 1, placing them after the "Subject 3" practical road driving test to further assess the candidate's level of traffic awareness. 2. Test Content: The main content includes: requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations such as tire blowouts, and knowledge of post-traffic accident handling.
I just passed the Subject 4 test a few months ago. The whole process requires advance appointment, otherwise you can't even get through the door. I booked my slot through the Traffic Management 12123 mobile app, which was super convenient: First registered an account on the app and linked it to my ID card, then selected Subject 4 for the exam, and chose a test center and time slot close to home – I'd recommend avoiding crowded weekend peak days, weekdays are much more relaxed. After successful booking, I received an SMS confirmation. On exam day, I brought my original ID card and arrived on time – security only allows entry with valid appointment records. The test covered a wide range of theoretical knowledge about traffic safety with many questions. I practiced several rounds of mock tests beforehand to pass. Although the process was a bit stressful, the appointment system made exam arrangements more organized, preventing unnecessary trips.
