How Many Times Can You Take the Driving Test Subject 3?
2 Answers
Subject 3, the road driving skills test, can be scheduled for a maximum of five times. Here are the detailed rules: 1. Subject 1 retakes have no limit: There is an immediate retake opportunity during the test, meaning each scheduled test allows two attempts. If both attempts fail, the scheduled test is considered unsuccessful, and a retake fee must be paid for another attempt. 2. Subject 2 allows a total of five scheduled test opportunities: Each scheduled test includes two attempts. Failing both attempts consumes one scheduled test opportunity, requiring preparation for the next scheduled test. Subject 2 allows a total of ten test attempts (five scheduled tests). If all ten attempts fail, the results of previously passed items become invalid. 3. Subject 4, also known as Subject 3 Safety and Civilization Driving Knowledge, has no limit on retake attempts.
The driving test科目三 (Subject 3) has a total of five exam attempts, and this rule applies nationwide. Most of my friends who took the driving test passed within two or three tries. If you fail all five attempts, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated, and you’ll need to re-register and start over from科目一 (Subject 1). Each retake costs between 200 to 500 yuan, and the key point is that after each failure, you must wait 10 days before scheduling the next test, which can stretch the timeline significantly. It’s recommended to practice specifically on the test route three days before the exam, focusing on parallel parking and driving in a straight line—these two tasks fail the most candidates. Stay relaxed; I’ve seen someone who was so nervous the first time they mistook the accelerator for the brake, but passed with full marks on their second attempt after adjusting their mindset.
