How Many Days to Wait Before Rescheduling the Written Driving Test?
1 Answers
You must wait 10 days before rescheduling the exam. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses," the written driving test (Subject 1) allows two attempts on the same day. If you fail the first attempt, you can take a free second attempt. If you fail the second attempt, the Subject 1 test is terminated. Subject 1, also known as the theoretical driving test, is part of the motor vehicle driving license assessment. The test covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is computer-based with a time limit of 45 minutes. A passing score is 90 out of 100, with 100 questions consisting of single-choice and true/false questions worth 1 point each. If you answer 11 questions incorrectly, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1 Test Content: Driving license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and rules; traffic violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 Exam Notes: Candidates must dress appropriately—no slippers allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. After identity verification, you will be assigned a seat. Once seated, begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam rules. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the test, queue to collect and sign your score report—unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule Subject 1. Each test allows one retake if you fail. If you skip the retake or fail it, the test is terminated, and you must reschedule. For Subject 2 and Subject 3, only five attempts are allowed, and rescheduling must be done after 10 days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe driving knowledge test, your passed road driving skills score remains valid. The driving test consists of three subjects: Subject 1 (traffic laws and regulations), Subject 2 (field driving skills), and Subject 3 (road driving skills and safe driving knowledge). The safe driving knowledge test is taken after Subject 3, often called "Subject 4," though this term is unofficial and not mentioned in the official regulations (Ministry of Public Security Order No. 123).
