Has the multiple-choice question been canceled in Subject 1?

[Luna]

There is no cancellation of multiple-choice questions in the Subject 1 driving license test. The test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions according to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses". Each question is worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the examination. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The test content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and other related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. The content of the Subject 1 test includes: driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; regulations on road traffic accident handling; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge of wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Notes for the Subject 1 test: Candidates should pay attention to their attire; no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are not permitted in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in the lockers before entering the examination room. After entering, the identity verification station will assign a seat. Once seated, the test begins. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow the test discipline. If you fail the first time, there is a retake opportunity on the same day. If you fail again, you need to pay and reschedule. After the test, queue to collect the score report and sign it. Unsigned reports are considered invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 test. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake opportunity if failed. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the test is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only 5 test opportunities, and they can be rescheduled 10 days later. If the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test is failed, the passed road driving skill test scores remain valid. The driving test consists of 3 subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test; Subject 2 refers to the field driving skill test; Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge test. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, in the official terminology (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123), there is no such term as Subject 4.

I recently passed my driver's license test and found that the multiple-choice questions in Subject 1 have indeed been eliminated. After the 2022 regulation changes, the entire exam now consists solely of single-choice questions, significantly reducing the difficulty. A friend of mine who took the test earlier struggled with the multiple-choice questions, but now the question bank only retains 900 questions. Driving test prep apps have been updated accordingly—using apps like 'Driving Test Treasure,' practicing two hours a day for a week is enough to prepare. I think this reform is really convenient, but don’t assume it’s easy to breeze through. Mastering traffic rules is essential to avoid accidents later. I recommend taking a few mock tests before the exam to familiarize yourself with the question types. Stay calm during the test, and pass it steadily. The knowledge of safe driving must be taken seriously—after all, driving on the road is no small matter and can’t be approached carelessly. While the exam threshold is lower now, the original intention is to help more people grasp the fundamentals.

As someone frequently exposed to driving test information, since 2022, the multiple-choice questions in Subject 1 have been canceled, and now it's all single-choice questions, making exam preparation easier. It's recommended to download driving test apps like Yuanbei Driving Test, which contain a streamlined question bank. Practicing a hundred questions daily will help you pass the exam. Don't underestimate single-choice questions; there are still tricky ones, such as traffic rule signs or penalty point rules that need to be memorized. I think simplifying the exam is a good thing, but learning shouldn't be simplified. Core knowledge points like the consequences of drunk driving and speed limit standards must be thoroughly understood. Watching video explanations and error analysis during preparation can improve efficiency. The driving test is just the beginning; actual driving requires following the rules, so don't neglect safety details just to get the license.

After the implementation of the 2022 driving test reform, the multiple-choice questions in Subject 1 were uniformly canceled and replaced with an all-single-choice question format. The reason is to optimize the examination system, reduce the burden on candidates, and improve the pass rate. The question bank has been reduced to 900 questions, focusing more on practical applications, allowing students to concentrate on the core of traffic knowledge. This is not to encourage relaxed learning; the government's reform aims to enhance road safety and avoid the risks of rote memorization before hitting the road. Candidates should understand the essence of the changes, prepare diligently with the App question bank, and ensure they grasp the basics to drive safely.

Driving tests may have minor variations across different regions, but after 2022, the basic Subject 1 nationwide eliminated multiple-choice questions in favor of single-choice questions to standardize the process. Compared to the difficulty of complex question types under old regulations, the simplified new rules help more people pass. I've seen discussions in the community mentioning that some remote areas initially piloted these changes and have now fully adapted. Exam candidates should pay attention to official information sources and avoid rumors to prevent confusion over individual adjustments. Overall, global driver's license test models differ, but China's simplified approach is more user-friendly. The key is to practice questions thoroughly and ensure traffic rules are well-learned for safety.

Although the removal of multiple-choice questions in Subject 1 has made the exam easier, learning should not be compromised, as the real goal is to cultivate safe driving habits. I emphasize that key traffic knowledge, such as traffic light rules or speed limit changes, is a matter of life and death. The new regulations have reduced the number of questions, but the exam is just the starting point—making mistakes while driving could lead to accidents. It is recommended to combine case studies, such as watching accident videos to understand danger points, for a more profound preparation. Use apps to simulate exams, recreate real-world conditions, and focus on reviewing weak areas in the week before the test to embed the knowledge deeply in your mind.
