The Subject 4 test for motor vehicle driver's license examination consists of 50 questions, each worth 2 points, totaling 100 points. Among them, questions 1 to 10 are true/false questions, questions 11 to 40 are single-choice questions, and questions 41 to 50 are multiple-choice questions. The test question types include image analysis, animated case studies, and text descriptions. The motor vehicle driver's license examination is divided into: 1. Theoretical test on road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge, referred to as Subject 1; 2. Field driving skills test, referred to as Subject 2; 3. Road driving skills test, referred to as Subject 3; 4. Theoretical test on safe and civilized driving common sense, referred to as Subject 4. The examination content and passing standards are unified nationwide, with corresponding test items specified according to different types of vehicles eligible for driving.

I recently completed the theoretical exam for the Motor Vehicle Driver's Subject 4, which consisted of around 50 multiple-choice questions covering traffic regulations, safe driving knowledge, etc. The exam was computer-based, with each question worth one point and a perfect score of 50. To pass, you needed to answer at least 45 questions correctly, which is a 90% accuracy rate. During my preparation, I used a driving test app to practice questions and found that pedestrian priority rules, drunk driving penalties, and highway driving were high-frequency test points. In the days leading up to the exam, I took a mock test daily to familiarize myself with the question style and time management, aiming to complete each question within an average of one minute. I recommend new test-takers to practice this way as well. Additionally, the question bank has been updated to include content related to new energy vehicles, but the total number of questions remains relatively stable. As long as you understand the principles rather than just memorizing, passing should be easy. Safety is no small matter—the knowledge from Subject 4 can be life-saving in critical moments.

As an instructor who frequently coaches students, I emphasize that the Subject 4 exam consists of a fixed set of 50 questions, focusing on safety awareness and practical operational skills. The questions cover topics such as traffic signal interpretation, vehicle maintenance basics, and emergency response procedures, such as driving techniques in rainy conditions or accident handling protocols. In my teaching, I remind students not just to focus on the number of questions but to deeply understand the application scenarios of each question, avoiding the habit of merely memorizing without critical thinking. The exam is typically completed within 20 minutes, with an average pass rate of over 85%. With diligent preparation, anyone can succeed. I recommend using official study materials and mock exams in combination with learning, and integrating real-world driving experience will be even more effective. After all, this knowledge can help reduce the risk of accidents on the road in the future.

Back when I was young and taking the fourth subject of the driver's license test, there were only about 50 questions. After finishing, I felt it was quite practical. At that time, it was all paper-and-pencil answering, but now it's digitized, making it even more convenient, though the number of questions remains the same. The test mainly assesses the mastery of traffic rules, such as signal light recognition and intersection regulations. Reflecting on decades of driving experience, I deeply appreciate the necessity of the test design. I advise beginners to focus on practical application rather than the number of questions. The test is easy to pass; the key is to study with dedication.
