How many days after canceling Subject 4 can you make a new appointment?

If a student needs to cancel after confirming the exam appointment, they can do so three working days before the scheduled exam date. The student must personally bring the original ID card (for non-local residents, a temporary residence permit is required) or have the driving school's certification personnel go to the exam service window of the city's vehicle management office to cancel. For the next appointment application, there must be at least one appointment cycle interval. Failure to cancel on time will result in a failing grade. Below is additional information: 1. Subject 4: Subject 4, also known as the theoretical exam for drivers, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The original exam consisted of Subject 1 (theoretical exam), Subject 2 (yard test), electronic subject exam, and Subject 3 (road test). According to the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, an additional theoretical exam is required after the road test. Since this exam is conducted after Subject 3, it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. 2. Regulations: After the implementation of the "Ministry of Public Security of the People's Republic of China Order No. 139," Subject 3 was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civilized knowledge exam, commonly known as "Subject 4," which assesses "driving ethics."
I remember during the driver's license test process, if you cancel the appointment for Subject 4 (theoretical test), you usually have to wait one or two working days before you can reschedule. The exam system needs time to process the cancellation records to prevent congestion caused by frequent operations. I once helped a friend with this issue – after cancellation, the system still showed unavailable when he tried to reschedule the next day, and it took a full three days to succeed. I recommend checking available slots in advance using the Traffic Management 12123 APP. During peak periods, the wait might be longer, but don’t worry – use the gap to review theory questions more thoroughly, as Subject 4 is crucial for safe driving. If you’re anxious about the wait, calling the local DMV for more accurate information is a good idea. Just don’t rush to reschedule without being fully prepared, as it could affect your pass rate.
