The exam duration is limited to 45 minutes. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," candidates can take the Subject 1 exam twice on the same day. If they fail the first attempt, they can retake it for free. If they fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 exam is terminated, and they can only reschedule after ten days. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test or driver's theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The exam covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer. The Subject 1 exam consists of 100 questions, including multiple-choice and true/false questions, each worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If a candidate answers 11 questions incorrectly, the system will automatically submit the exam and end the test. Subject 1 exam content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately for the exam, no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam hall. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned seat and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect and sign your score report. Failure to sign renders the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the exam is terminated, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, there are only five exam attempts, and rescheduling must occur ten days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and knowledge exam. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe driving knowledge. The safe driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."
