How many times can you take the driving test for Subject 2?
2 Answers
Subject 2 can be scheduled up to 5 times. If you fail the test once, you can take a make-up test. If you do not take the make-up test or still fail the make-up test, the current test session will be terminated, and the applicant should reschedule the test after ten days. Related information: 1. Introduction: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is the abbreviation for the field driving skills test. The test items include five mandatory tests: reversing into a garage, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, turning at a right angle, and driving on a curve. 2. Expansion: Article 32 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" states: After passing the Subject 1 test for the first application for a motor vehicle driver's license or for applying to add a permitted driving model, the vehicle management office should issue a driving skills test permit within one day.
Regarding the number of attempts for Subject 2 of the driving test, having taught driving for many years, I understand students' common concerns. According to regulations, you can take Subject 2 up to 5 times, with each scheduled exam including two attempts: if you fail the first time, you can retake it immediately for free; if you fail the retest as well, you need to reschedule the next exam. If all 5 attempts are used without passing, your entire driving test record will be reset, requiring you to re-enroll and start from Subject 1. I recommend practicing key items like reversing into a garage and hill parking more often, avoiding common mistakes such as excessive speed or inaccurate reference points. The interval between exams is usually 5-7 days, which can be used for more practice in simulation venues. Stay relaxed mentally—most students pass within three attempts, so don’t stress too much. The key is to build confidence through practice and ensure safe driving.
