How long after failing Subject 2 can you schedule a retake?

You can schedule a retake for Subject 2 10 days after failing. According to regulations, each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you are allowed one retake. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the current examination is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the exam. However, for Subject 2 and Subject 3, the retake must be scheduled at least 10 days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test scores remain valid. 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. The C1/C2 test items include five mandatory tests: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turn, and curve driving. Some regions also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection.
When I failed the second driving test, I was also very anxious about this question. Later, my instructor told me that the earliest you can reschedule is 10 days later. This time is calculated from the day of your last test, not the day you failed. I suggest using these ten days to thoroughly analyze the reasons for failure. For example, if you keep stalling on the hill start, focus on practicing clutch control. I went to the driving school for an extra hour of practice every day and even had the instructor record my operation for review at home. Remember to use the Traffic Management 12123 App to schedule the test—the system will open the reservation channel on the 11th day, so it's best to choose the nearest test center and time. Don’t let failure disrupt your rhythm. Before my second test, I adjusted my mindset and stayed relaxed, which helped me pass with full marks!
