Subject 2 can be scheduled up to five times. Here is extended information about the examination rules and precautions for Subject 2: 1. Examination Rules: (1) There are two opportunities during the examination, requiring all five items to be passed in each opportunity. If any item fails, all five items must be retaken. (2) If the first examination fails, the second examination follows immediately, with the same process as the first, using the same vehicle and the same test track, and fingerprint verification must be performed again. 2. Precautions: (1) Managing emotions is crucial. Many students who fail Subject 2 do so because they cannot alleviate their nervousness after hearing the failure announcement, leading to repeated mistakes at the same spot. (2) The second retake is the same as the first examination; during the vehicle preparation, it is essential to adjust the seat, mirrors, and fasten the seatbelt before fingerprint verification. (3) Each examination item in the test center is monitored by GPS positioning. The control line (yellow dotted line) of each item represents the examination area for that item. Once the vehicle's front passes the control line, it signifies entry into the examination for that item, and the examination rules for that item must be followed to completion.

As a driving school instructor, I often encounter students asking how many times they can schedule the Subject 2 exam. In reality, there is no fixed upper limit on the number of attempts. As long as you don't pass, you'll need to reschedule and pay the fee each time, which varies by region, typically ranging from 200 to 300 yuan. However, don’t rush into the exam for convenience. Common pitfalls in Subject 2, such as parallel parking or hill starts, can easily trip you up. Spending more time on simulated training at the driving school can help reduce the number of failures. When scheduling, pay attention to the waiting period—after a failure, you usually have to wait a few days before booking the next attempt. In summary, stay calm. The advantage of unlimited attempts means you have the opportunity to keep trying until you pass and get your license. It’s advisable to adjust your practice methods based on your instructor’s feedback to pass the exam sooner.

As someone who personally took the Subject 2 driving test, I can tell you there are no restrictions on booking—I failed three times before passing. Each failure required rebooking from scratch, costing around 200 RMB, with waiting periods varying by location. For example, in places like Hangzhou, you can rebook after just one week. Don’t panic—failing Subject 2 is common, with the S-curve and right-angle turn being the toughest spots. Just prepare thoroughly and practice more at the training ground. My friend took five attempts but eventually passed. The costs add up, so I strongly advise against rushing to book—wait until you’re fully prepared to reduce expenses.

Having followed driving test regulations for years, there is no upper limit on the number of attempts for Subject 2 (Parking), allowing candidates to retake the test indefinitely until they pass. According to official rules, similar policies are implemented nationwide, but pay attention to the waiting period and fee details: typically, a 5-7 day interval is required after a failed attempt before rescheduling, with each test fee ranging between 150-250 RMB. Don’t overlook the core challenges of Subject 2, such as the common mistakes in reverse parking—focused practice can improve success rates. Ultimately, persistence is key, so there’s no need to worry about the number of attempts.
