After passing the fourth subject test, you will receive the driver's license on the spot. In some places, you can get the license a few hours after passing the test and taking the oath, while in others it may take up to a week. Below is an introduction to the fourth subject test: Scope of the fourth subject test: Depending on the type of driver's license being tested, 50 questions are randomly selected from the corresponding fourth subject test question bank. For small vehicle licenses, questions are selected from a pool of 1,235, and for large vehicle licenses, questions are also selected from a pool of 1,235. Each question is worth 2 points. Duration of the fourth subject test: The test duration is 45 minutes. If you make mistakes totaling 12 points (6 questions) during the test, the session will be terminated. Question types in the fourth subject test: The test includes true/false questions (questions 1-22), single-choice questions (questions 23-45), and multiple-choice questions (questions 46-50). Content of the fourth subject test: The test questions include image-based questions, scenario recognition questions, and text-based narrative questions.
I got my driver's license just three days after passing the subject four test, and the whole process went super smoothly! After signing the confirmation form at the test center, the data was uploaded to the system in real-time. The next day, the driving school notified me to pick up my license. That feeling of joy just surged up instantly, and I immediately took a photo to share on social media to celebrate. The processing time varies slightly by location, with first-tier cities possibly being even faster. You can check real-time progress using the Traffic Management 12123 app. Generally, it takes 1-3 working days to complete, and even if it coincides with a holiday, it might only extend by a day or two. Remember not to rush after the test—just wait patiently for the notification. If you have any questions, ask the driving school directly; their service attitude is quite good. After getting your license, it's best to check your personal information for accuracy right away to avoid any future hassles.
My daughter passed the fourth driving test last month, and her driver's license was issued the very next day—the efficiency was surprisingly high! Right after the test, the staff reminded her to check the status online, and the next day she received a text message saying the document was ready for pickup at the driving school. The whole process was simple and quick, without making us wait too long. A reminder to fellow parents: after the test, encourage your kids to keep an eye on their phones or emails, as home delivery by courier is also common. Generally, in cities, it takes 1-2 days, while in rural areas it might take 3-4 days, but there's no need to worry—just contact the driving school promptly if needed. Once the license is obtained, it's essential to teach your child safe driving practices—don’t just focus on the excitement.
Having worked at a driving school for a while, after passing the Subject 4 test, the driver's license is usually issued within 1-3 working days. Once signed, the system processes it immediately, and the certificate production center issues it on the same day or the next day. The driving school then notifies you to pick it up or mails it to your home. In some areas, self-service machines allow you to get it in just a few minutes, which is highly efficient. During peak periods or if there are document issues, it might take slightly longer, but generally, it doesn’t exceed 5 days. After the test, remember to check for SMS or phone notifications so you don’t miss anything. It’s recommended not to rush unnecessarily—the system process is very reliable. Once you get your license, always follow the rules and prioritize safety when driving.
