How long after canceling the subject three appointment can I make a second appointment?

You can make a second appointment the day after canceling the subject three appointment, but please note: 1. Appointment feedback: Whether the appointment is successful depends on the total number of appointments and your ranking, with the system's actual feedback being the main determinant. 2. Factors affecting the appointment: Multiple cancellations may impact the success rate of your next appointment. The content of the subject three test is as follows: 1. Road driving skills: Includes preparation for getting on the vehicle, simulated nighttime lighting test, starting, driving in a straight line, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left at intersections, turning right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crossings, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and nighttime driving for large buses, tractors, city buses, medium-sized buses, large trucks, small cars, small automatic transmission cars, low-speed cargo trucks, and small automatic transmission passenger cars for the disabled. The test content for other permitted vehicle types is determined by the provincial traffic management departments of public security authorities. 2. Safe and civilized driving knowledge: Includes requirements for safe and civilized driving operations, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge.

Over the years as an instructor, I've found this is the most frequently asked question by students. Actually, the system has very clear requirements for cancellation and rescheduling. As long as you cancel the exam on the traffic management bureau website or 12123 APP, you can immediately schedule a second attempt once the application status changes to 'Cancellation Successful'. However, note that system maintenance occurs daily at 1 AM when operations are unavailable. For students I coach who encounter last-minute issues, I always advise them to wait until the cancellation progress shows as fully completed before proceeding - that's the safest approach. Processing speeds vary by city - some locations update statuses within three hours, while others may take half a day. It's best not to rush refreshing immediately after cancellation; checking again after four hours is the most reliable approach.

I've seen many cases at the examination organizing unit. The rescheduling after canceling Subject 3 is theoretically effective immediately, but three conditions must be met: the originally scheduled session hasn't started, the cancellation request is fully effective, and you haven't exceeded two cancellations in the current month. Here's the key point: exceeding two cancellations may result in a penalty period set by the DMV. System processing times of 3-5 hours are normal, so it's advisable not to rush after cancellation—have lunch first and check back later. Exam session releases are dynamic, so for peak periods, it's best to stay up late to grab released slots.

Last time I had a fever before my Subject 3 test and canceled it. I successfully rescheduled just five minutes after completing the process on the 12123 app. However, my classmate Xiao Wang from the same driving school had to wait six hours before he could reschedule after canceling. It seems that cancellations made within three days before the test take longer to process. Remember not to just wait passively after canceling—actively refresh the page to check the status. It’s normal to see fewer test center options when rescheduling, especially since weekend slots get taken quickly. My instructor advised against making changes within 48 hours before the test, as the system tends to lag.
