1 Answers
The Subject 1 exam for the driver's license consists of 100 questions, according to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses." It includes single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point, totaling 100 points. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The exam content covers driving theory basics, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is computer-based with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 exam content includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and rules; road traffic safety 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 cargo vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Subject 1 exam precautions: Candidates should dress appropriately—no slippers allowed. Electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam hall. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting area. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen before entering the exam hall, and store personal belongings in lockers. Upon entering, verify your identity at the assigned station, locate your seat, and begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After completion, queue to collect and sign your score report—unsigned reports are invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can reschedule the Subject 1 exam. If you fail the first attempt, you can retake it once. If you skip the retake or fail again, the exam session ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subjects 2 and 3 allow only five exam attempts. Subjects 2 and 3 must be rescheduled at least 10 days later. If you fail the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test, your previously passed road driving skills scores remain valid. The driver's license exam consists of three subjects: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam. Subject 2 is the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safety and civilized driving knowledge. The safety and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4, though this term is not officially recognized (i.e., not mentioned in the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123).
