C1 Subject 3 offers 5 examination attempts, with one additional retest opportunity per attempt. If the candidate fails to pass after 5 retests, the results of other previously passed subjects will be invalidated. C1 Driving License Examination Passing Standards: Traffic Regulations and Related Knowledge (Subject 1) — Written test, full score of 100, passing score is 90 or above. Field Driving (Subject 2) — On-site, actual vehicle. Minimum passing score is 80, below 80 is a fail. Road Driving (Subject 3) — Highway or simulated field, actual vehicle. Full score is 100, must achieve 90 or above to pass. Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge — Written test, questions mainly in the form of cases, pictures, animations, etc., question types include true/false, single-choice, and multiple-choice, totaling 50 questions, full score of 100, passing score is 90. C1 Application Age: The minimum age limit for a C1 driver's license is 18 years old, with no upper age limit. However, applicants aged 70 or above must pass tests on memory, judgment, and reaction abilities.
Last year, I just finished the Subject 3 test, so I totally understand everyone's concern about how many chances you get. On the test day, if you fail the first attempt, you can retake it immediately, which means you have two chances in one session. If you don't pass at all, don't worry too much—we all have five booking opportunities. My driving instructor once told me that among all the students he's trained, most pass within three attempts. If you use up all five bookings without success, your previous Subject 1 and Subject 2 results will be invalidated, and you'll need to register again. It's normal to feel nervous during the test, so I recommend practicing more on the test route beforehand. Back then, I specifically practiced gear shifting during peak hours, and I passed the test smoothly.
