How Many Times Can You Take the Subject 2 Test?
2 Answers
You have five chances to retake the Subject 2 driving test. Within the validity period of the study driving certificate, the number of times you can schedule the Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skill tests cannot exceed five. If you still fail the fifth scheduled test, the results of other subjects that have been passed will be invalidated. Below is an introduction to the passing scores for the driving test: Subject 1: Road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. It is a written test conducted on a computer, with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above (including 90) is considered passing. Subject 2: Field driving skill test. It is conducted in a real vehicle within a designated area, with only pass or fail results. The test includes five mandatory items: reversing into a parking space, parallel parking, S-curve driving, right-angle turning, and hill start and stop. The full score is 100, and a score of 80 or above (including 80) is considered passing. Subject 3: Road driving skill test. It is conducted on a real vehicle on a road or simulated area. The full score is 100. For large buses, a score of 90 or above is required; for large trucks, 80 or above; and for other vehicle types, 70 or above is considered passing. Subject 4: Safe and civilized driving-related knowledge test. It is a written test with a full score of 100. A score of 90 or above (including 90) is considered passing.
I've been teaching driving for years, and the subject two is the field skill test. Many people ask about the number of attempts. Don't worry, there's no limit as long as you're within the valid test period, which is three years. You can retake it repeatedly. After each failure, just wait a week or two to reschedule. The test fee varies by location, usually around a hundred yuan. I've seen many students pass after four or five attempts, and the toughest one made it on the sixth try. The key is not to get nervous, practice reversing and parallel parking more, adjust your seat and mirrors properly, and avoid changing positions each time. Can't pass within the validity period? You can apply for an extension, but it's better to finish early to save time. I recommend using the driving school simulator or practicing extra on weekends—it's hassle-free and cost-effective. Getting a license is a process; keep practicing, and you'll succeed.
