Failed the Driving Test (Subject 3) Three Times: Should I Keep Trying or Buy It?
2 Answers
If you have failed the Driving Test (Subject 3) three times, you need to continue taking the exam. Purchasing a passing score for Subject 3 is illegal. The details are as follows: Exam Attempts: Within the validity period of the learning driving permit, the number of scheduled attempts for the Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five. Note: If you fail the fifth scheduled test, the results of other subjects you have passed will be invalidated. Information about Subject 3 is as follows: Subject 3: This is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment, referred to as the road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test. Road Driving Skills Test: The content generally includes vehicle preparation, simulated lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, gear shifting operations, changing lanes, parking by the roadside, driving straight through intersections, turning at intersections, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and night driving, among others. The test content varies depending on the type of vehicle license. Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test: The content generally includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, and knowledge of handling procedures after traffic accidents.
Failing the road test three times in a row can indeed be disheartening. I've seen many cases like this when I was getting my driver's license – most people stumble on minor details. You should first analyze the specific reasons for your previous failures: Was it unfamiliarity with the route, hitting the curb during parallel parking, or mistakes in light operations? I recommend requesting targeted training with your instructor – many driving schools offer last-hour practice sessions before the test. Mentally, don't rush to prove yourself; treat it as familiarizing yourself with the test environment. I know someone who passed on their fifth attempt and now drives exceptionally well. Never consider buying a license – it's both illegal and dangerous, showing no responsibility toward yourself or others.
