How Many Times Can You Take the Driving Test for Subject Two and Three?
3 Answers
Subject Two and Three each have five attempts. If you cannot pass the test within these five attempts, you will need to re-register at a driving school and retake the Subject One test. Relevant information about the driver's license test is as follows: 1. Introduction: The driver's test is a qualification examination organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driver's test can you obtain a driver's license and legally operate a motor vehicle. 2. Content: The motor vehicle driver's test is divided into the following subjects: Road Traffic Safety Laws, Regulations, and Related Knowledge Test (also known as the "Theoretical Test", abbreviated as "Subject One"), Field Driving Skills Test (commonly known as "Pole Test", abbreviated as "Subject Two"), and Road Driving Skills and Safe and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test (commonly known as "Road Test", abbreviated as "Subject Three"). The test content and passing standards are uniform nationwide, with corresponding test items specified according to different types of vehicles eligible for driving.
I failed the subject two test twice and the subject three test once before finally passing. According to the regulations, there are five attempts for both subject two and subject three road driving skill tests, with one retake allowed on the same day of each test. If you still fail on the fifth attempt, it becomes a big problem—all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you'll have to start over from subject one, paying the fees again. So, take every test seriously and don't think 'I can always retake it.' I've seen people panic and shake after failing the fourth attempt, leading to another failure on the fifth try, forcing them to spend thousands to start over. It's advisable to do more mock tests at the exam site before the actual test and seek professional coaching to strengthen weak areas.
Over the years of instructing students, the rule I most frequently remind them about is the exam attempt limit. For both Subject Two and Subject Three, you can only schedule five attempts each. If you fail on the fifth try, you'll have to re-register from scratch. Some students think five chances are plenty, but they end up panicking after consecutive failures. Last year, a young man was so nervous during his fourth Subject Three attempt that he forgot to tap the brake at a traffic light intersection. On his fifth attempt, he drew the night exam route and failed immediately by using the windshield wipers incorrectly. This rule is designed to push everyone to practice seriously—don't rely on luck. My advice is to pause exams for a month after failing three times and focus on practicing weak areas. Otherwise, the more you rush, the more mistakes you'll make. Wearing loose clothes and bringing peppermints during the exam can help ease nerves—these small tricks could save you thousands in re-registration fees.
