How long after passing the C1 subject 1 test can you take the subject 2 test?

[JulianDella]

For a C1 driver's license, you can take the subject 2 test 10 days after passing the subject 1 test. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," after passing the subject 1 test for a C1 license, you can schedule the subject 2 test online 10 days later. This provides ample time to prepare for the subject 2 content. Each subject 2 test appointment comes with two attempts. If you fail the first attempt, you can take a free retest. If you do not take the retest or fail the retest, the test session ends, and you can reschedule the subject 2 test after 10 days. Within the validity period of the learner's permit, the number of subject 2 test appointments must not exceed five. If you fail the fifth attempt, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated. To continue pursuing the driver's license, you will need to start over from subject 1. Subject 2 test content: Driving a motor vehicle to complete test items within a designated area; demonstrating mastery of motor vehicle driving skills; and assessing the ability to judge the spatial position of the vehicle. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, includes five mandatory test items: reverse parking, parallel parking, hill start, right-angle turn, and curve driving. Some regions may include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. Subject 2 test precautions: After getting into the car, always adjust the seat and mirrors to a suitable position and state, and always fasten the seatbelt. For parallel parking, remember to find the correct angle, turn the steering wheel quickly, react promptly, and coordinate with the car's speed. For hill starts, remember to engage the handbrake, turn on the left turn signal when starting, release the handbrake, stabilize the clutch, and gradually press the accelerator while releasing the clutch to avoid stalling or rolling back. For right-angle turns, react quickly to turn after finding the correct point, and coordinate with the car's speed to avoid deviation. For curve driving (S-turn), slow down and proceed cautiously. Those with good driving sense during practice can pass through smoothly in one go. For reverse parking, control the speed carefully, identify reference points accurately, and make minor adjustments when observing deviations in the rearview mirror. The driving test consists of three subjects: subject 1, subject 2, and subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge. Subject 2 refers to the test on field driving skills. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as subject 4. However, in official terms (i.e., the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123), there is no such thing as subject 4.

I just passed the subject one test a while ago, and the waiting time for subject two is about 10 days, depending on the driving school's schedule and your practice progress. Right after passing, I immediately asked my instructor, who said I had to complete the required practice hours before signing up for the test—usually until I was familiar with skills like reversing into a parking space and starting on a slope. Rules may vary by location, so it could be faster or slower. My advice is not to rush after passing subject one; spend more time practicing driving skills to avoid nervousness and failing the test. My friend took the test after ten days and passed with good preparation, so just wait patiently. But remember to check in with the driving school regularly to confirm the progress. Keep practicing, and don’t let it drag on too long and disrupt your learning rhythm.
