How Long After the New Year Can You Start the Subject 2 Test?

Driver's license tests can generally be conducted within one week to half a month after the New Year. Most driving schools' holiday schedules are linked to the Vehicle Management Office, which, as a public institution, follows the national holiday arrangement—typically seven days. However, some driving schools may delay the test for a few days due to weather or other reasons, but it usually does not exceed half a month. 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. Subject 2 Test Content: For C1 license, the test includes five mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may also include a sixth item: highway toll card collection. For C2 license, the test includes four mandatory items: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves (commonly known as S-turns). For large vehicles (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2), the test includes: pole test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving through curves, turning at a right angle, passing a narrow gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated scenarios such as highways, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rainy (foggy) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
I just finished teaching a class. After passing the subject two test, students usually have to wait 7-10 days before starting the subject three test. This period allows students to fully digest the skills, such as practicing reversing into the garage. Don't rush to hit the road. Remember to use the driving school's simulator more to practice dealing with road conditions, like how to handle heavy rain. Based on my years of experience, safety is much more important than speed. During the waiting period, you can also review the traffic rules of subject one to ensure a solid theoretical foundation, which increases the probability of passing the test smoothly. Check the local traffic rules APP or official website for updates, as dates may vary by region. In short, don't worry, this period is a great opportunity for progress. Keep it up!
I just passed the road test (subject two) not long ago and now I'm eager to take the driving test (subject three). My instructor said I need to wait at least 7-8 days, so I'm using this gap to learn more driving tips, like how to smoothly use turn signals. This interval seems quite reasonable as it helps avoid nervousness for beginners. I plan to simulate road test scenarios daily, ask friends to give pointers, and review emergency knowledge from subject four to boost my confidence. Veteran drivers say the waiting period varies by individual and might be extended, but solid preparation is key – safe driving is the ultimate goal. This whole process has actually become a golden opportunity for improvement.
