2 Answers
There are four subjects in the driver's license test. Below is relevant information about the subjects of the driver's license test: 1. Subject 1 test content: Mainly covers basic knowledge such as road traffic safety laws and regulations, traffic signals and their meanings, and traffic rules. 2. Subject 2 test content: Five mandatory items include reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving through curves. Some regions may have additional items. 3. Subject 3 test content: Includes 16 driving skills such as pre-driving preparations, starting, driving straight, shifting gears, changing lanes, pulling over, going straight through intersections, turning left or right at intersections, crossing pedestrian crosswalks, passing school zones, passing bus stops, meeting oncoming vehicles, overtaking, making U-turns, and simulated lighting operations. 4. Subject 4 test content: Mainly includes requirements for safe and civilized driving, knowledge of safe driving under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident handling knowledge. Like Subject 1, it is a theoretical test (computer-based).
I remember when I took my driver's license test last year, I found that the entire exam was divided into four subjects. Subject 1 was mainly a theoretical test on traffic rules, requiring memorization of many regulations and signs—I passed by practicing with question banks every day. Next was Subject 2, the field test, which included tasks like reversing into a parking space and starting on a slope. I failed several times during practice before mastering the techniques. Subject 3 was the hardest—actual road driving with an examiner guiding beside me, and I was so nervous my palms were sweating. Finally, Subject 4 tested safety knowledge and civilized driving, with relatively simpler scenario-based questions. Each subject was quite important, so I recommend reviewing materials in advance, such as watching video guides online, which can save a lot of time. Now that I’m driving on the road, the experience of getting my license is quite memorable. If you don’t build a solid foundation, it’s easy to fail and have to retake the test, wasting time.
