How Long is the Duration of the Driver's License Exam?

The validity period is 3 years. You must complete the subject two and subject three exams within three years after passing the subject one exam and obtaining the driving skills test permit. Article 32 of the new traffic regulations stipulates: For the first application for a motor vehicle driver's license or an application to add a permitted driving type, after passing the subject one exam, the vehicle management office should issue a driving skills test permit within one day. The driving skills test permit is valid for three years, and the applicant should complete the subject two and subject three exams within the validity period. If the exams are not completed within the validity period, the passed subject scores will be invalidated. Additional information: 1. The driver's license exam is conducted to obtain a motor vehicle driver's license, with unified exam content and passing standards nationwide. 2. The exam is divided into three subjects and four tests: theoretical knowledge, field driving skills, road driving skills, and civilized driving-related knowledge. 3. The basic process of the driver's license exam includes form filling, physical examination, acceptance, payment, examination, and certificate issuance.
It's been a while since I took my driver's license test, and recalling the whole process, it took about three to four hours. First, I took the theoretical part, waiting in line for about half an hour; the actual answering only took 25 minutes, and even less if the questions were simple. Then came the road test, waiting for 20 minutes before getting on the road, and the actual driving took just over 10 minutes to finish. The total time wasn't long, but you have to account for the registration review and the round trip. Thinking back now, it's better to go on a weekday with less peak traffic; when it's crowded, the test center gets jammed, dragging the time to about half a day. It's advisable to make an appointment in advance and bring all necessary IDs and materials, unlike my first time when I forgot the photo, making a wasted trip and extending the time. The key is to stay relaxed, and time will pass quickly.
