Failed the Driving Test (Subject 2) Four Times, Can I Take the Fifth Attempt?

Failed the Driving Test (Subject 2) Four Times, Can I Take the Fifth Attempt? Subject 2: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and refers to the field driving skills test. Automobile Driving: Automobile driving is one of the basic skills that modern people need to master. To acquire automobile driving skills, one must meet the required age and physical conditions and undergo training and examinations on road traffic safety laws and regulations, general knowledge about automobile mechanics, and safe driving practices. Mock Test: The first item in the Subject 2 test is reverse parking into a garage. The difficulty of reverse parking lies in the fact that there should be no pause during the process, completely negating the practice in the electronic pole test where the steering wheel is turned to the extreme and markers are identified.

A friend of mine was so nervous during the second driving test that his hands were shaking. He failed the first four attempts, but on the fifth try, he went in with a 'do or die' mentality and actually passed! The driving test rules do allow for a fifth attempt—I specifically asked the instructor, who said there just needs to be a 10-day gap between each test. However, if you fail the fifth time, you have to start over from scratch, paying again and retaking the first test, which means all previous efforts go to waste. It’s recommended to practice more with the driving school’s simulation car to familiarize yourself with the test route. On the exam day, eating a piece of chocolate can help ease anxiety. Many who pass on retakes succeed by paying attention to the details.

I remember when I was practicing driving, a lady in the same car failed her fourth attempt and was so anxious she started crying. The instructor comforted her by saying she could still book the fifth test, as the five attempts in the driving test system are counted independently. But that time, she made another mistake on her fifth try and had to re-register, starting from the theory test again, wasting two years for nothing. The key is to identify the reasons for failing—for example, if the car keeps stalling on hill starts, focus on practicing clutch control; if you keep hitting the line while reversing, memorize the reference points in the mirrors. Before the test, it's best to rent a car at the test site and do three actual practice runs—it’s more effective than blindly practicing for a month.

The exam notice posted on the wall of the driving school downstairs clearly states: There are five booking opportunities for both Subject 2 and Subject 3. The fifth registration process is the same as before—just a few clicks on the Traffic Management 12123 app. However, the old principal of the driving school once shared a statistic with me: The pass rate for students retaking the test for the fifth time is less than 30%, mainly due to excessive psychological pressure. He advised against watching those compilation videos of failed driving tests before the exam. Instead, listen to some light music for half an hour and treat entering the test site as just moving your car in your own garage.
