How many days in advance is required to cancel Subject 2?

If you cancel the Subject 2 appointment online by yourself, it usually takes three to five days for the cancellation to be processed successfully. If you go to the DMV with your ID and file to cancel the appointment in person, the cancellation takes effect immediately. After successfully canceling an appointment, you can schedule the next exam at any time. The Subject 2 test items for small vehicles C1 and C2 include reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curved road. The test items for large vehicles A1, A2, A3, B1, and B2 include pile test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, passing a single-plank bridge, driving on a curved road, turning at a right angle, passing a width-limited gate, passing continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, making a U-turn on a narrow road, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp turns on mountain roads, tunnels, rainy and foggy weather, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
Last time before my Subject 2 test, I had something urgent come up and wanted to cancel. I specifically checked—generally, you need to notify the driving school or test platform at least two days in advance, and many places require it within 48 hours. Failing to cancel on time might incur a fee, like a 150-yuan penalty here, plus you’d have to queue up to reschedule. I think the most reliable approach is to set a phone reminder right after booking and confirm your schedule three days early. If you really run out of time, try coordinating with your instructor, but don’t get your hopes up. In short, preparing early saves hassle and money, and avoids affecting your next opportunity.
My friend forgot to cancel his second driving test last month and only said he wouldn't go on the exam day. As a result, he was fined over 200 yuan and had to wait half a month to reschedule. Now he's learned his lesson - he sets an alarm for the cancellation deadline every time after booking. Based on experience, you should handle cancellations at least one day in advance, and it's best not to wait until the same day. Rules vary by location - for example, Beijing requires 24 hours' notice while Shanghai may need 36 hours. After cancellation, remember to reschedule and always consult your instructor rather than acting blindly. This small matter affects both your wallet and time, so it pays to be careful.
Canceling the Subject 2 test late will cost you more. For example, in our area, if you don't cancel at least two days in advance, the penalty ranges from 100 to 300 yuan, and it may even affect your test attempts. I recommend canceling at least 24 hours in advance via the app or phone to avoid losses. After canceling, don't forget to reschedule your test date to avoid delays in getting your license. Always stay updated on platform rules and keep your phone notifications on—it saves both money and effort.
