According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," there is no limit to the number of attempts for Subject 4. If you fail the first test on the same day, you can retake it once on-site. If you still fail, you need to reschedule the exam, and no additional fees are required for retakes. However, it is important to note that the validity period of the driving skill test permit is three years. If the applicant does not complete the exam within the validity period, the results of any previously passed subjects will be invalidated. Subject 4 consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations, with a full score of 100 and a passing score of 90. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 4 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, Subject 3 was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civilization knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which evaluates "driving ethics." Subject 4 is the colloquial term for the safety and civilization driving knowledge test under Subject 3, not a separate subject. Since this test is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly called Subject 4. Officially, there is no Subject 4. The safety and civilization driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3. Subject 4 Exam Notes: Exam Duration: The exam lasts 45 minutes, and answering 6 incorrect questions (12 points) will terminate the exam. Number of Questions: 50 questions are selected proportionally from the corresponding Subject 4 question bank based on the type of driving license being tested. Question Types: The exam includes single-choice questions (including true/false questions) and multiple-choice questions, covering animated questions, image-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based questions. Retake Notes: If you fail Subject 4, you only need to retake Subject 4. The driving school will schedule the retake, and there is no limit to the number of retakes. No additional fees are required for Subject 4 retakes. Subject 4 Exam Tips: Strengthen weak areas and identify the reasons for mistakes. For marked questions, do not just memorize the correct answers. Refer to regulations, textbooks, or reference materials to understand the reasons for errors and internalize them. Categorize and summarize questions. Refer to the question bank analysis for classification and identify similar questions: Many questions in the bank are similar and easily confused, so they should be analyzed and summarized. For example, traffic signs for walking, hiking, pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian crossing warnings are very similar and easily confused. During study, categorize them to avoid mistakes. Find memorization techniques: Many questions in the bank involve numbers. Summarize these numbers for easier memorization. There are three subjects in the driving test: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3, with Subject 3 divided into two parts. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skill test. Subject 3 refers to the road driving skill and safety and civilization driving knowledge test.

My friend just passed Subject 4, and he said there are quite a few exam opportunities. The driver's license test is valid for three years, counting from the day you pass Subject 1. During these three years, there's no limit to how many times you can take Subject 4—you can take it as many times as you need. However, each appointment only gives you one main exam attempt plus one retake. If you fail both, you'll have to book another appointment. I think everyone should stay relaxed during the test; practicing more questions will help you pass, especially since the question bank only has a little over a thousand questions—just focus on the high-frequency test points. Also, if your three-year validity period is about to expire, remember to book your appointment in advance so you don't miss the deadline.

I got my driver's license the year before last, and I remember my instructor saying there's no limit on the number of attempts for Subject 4. As long as your driver's test is still within the three-year validity period, there are no restrictions on scheduling the exam. You can retake the test immediately after each attempt, but if you still fail, you'll need to schedule again. I recommend preparing thoroughly and not rushing into the test. The exam mainly covers common sense of safe driving, which is much easier than Subjects 2 and 3, but you need to practice more to familiarize yourself with the question types. Pay special attention to traffic sign questions and accident handling questions.

The subject four exam can be taken repeatedly within the validity period of the driving test, with no limit on the number of attempts. However, if you fail twice in a row after each appointment, you will need to pay and schedule again. It's best to fully grasp all the knowledge points before taking the exam to avoid unnecessary hassle. Currently, the exam is conducted on computers, with question types including true/false, single-choice, and multiple-choice, totaling fifty questions. Failing more than five questions results in a failure. The exam room also randomly checks surveillance footage, and cheating will lead to immediate disqualification. Remember to bring your ID card and files for the exam.
