One week later. Traffic Management 12123: Traffic Management 12123 is the official client of the Internet-based comprehensive traffic safety service management platform, supported by the Traffic Management Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security. It provides comprehensive traffic safety services for vehicle owners and drivers, including: personal user registration on the Internet service platform, appointment, acceptance, and processing of services such as vehicle/driver's license/illegal handling, traffic safety information inquiries, service notifications and reminders, service guidance, and road traffic services. Canceling an appointment one day in advance: If a student cannot attend the exam at the scheduled time, they should cancel the appointment one day in advance. Failure to attend the exam as scheduled will result in a failing grade for this exam. If the appointment has not yet received an SMS notification, it can be canceled on Traffic Management 12123. For appointments that have already received an SMS reminder, the student must bring their ID card to the vehicle management office to apply for cancellation.
I'm a newly licensed driver who recently canceled an exam appointment via the 12123 app. The system indicated a 24-hour wait before rescheduling. Feeling nervous that day, I logged in immediately to check the status but found I could only proceed the next day. During this period, I downloaded a driving test app to review questions and reinforce my knowledge for Subject 1. The next morning, I successfully booked a new exam slot—the process was quite smooth. My advice: cancel early rather than waiting until the exam day, as last-minute cancellations may not be possible. After canceling, stay calm and use the waiting time to practice—it’ll make passing easier next time. After all, the driving test is a big deal, and this buffer period is designed to help candidates prepare thoroughly and steadily.
