How to Handle Missing the Subject Three Driving Test?
2 Answers
Failure to attend the test is considered as a fail, and the next test will be a retake, which requires paying a retake fee. The relevant regulations are as follows: 1. Regulation One: Article 36: If the applicant cannot attend the test at the scheduled time due to unavoidable reasons, they must apply to cancel the appointment one day in advance. If the applicant fails to attend the test at the scheduled time, the test will be deemed as a fail. 2. Regulation Two: Article 37: Each subject test can be taken once, and if failed, it can be retaken once. If the applicant does not attend the retake or fails the retake, the current test session is terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test. However, the subject two and subject three tests must be rescheduled at least ten days later. If the subject three safety and civilized driving knowledge test is failed, the passed road driving skills test scores remain valid.
As a driving instructor for many years, I've seen many students miss their Subject 3 test. The key is to immediately contact your driving school or test center, report the reason for missing the test, and provide your personal details. Then, pay the re-examination fee, usually around a few hundred yuan, to reschedule the next test. At the same time, review the reasons for your mistake, such as misremembering the time or unexpected circumstances, and prepare phone reminders and study materials. Avoiding repeated mistakes will save time, as consecutive absences may affect your overall driver's license progress. Remember, handling it promptly not only avoids extra costs but also maintains your driving confidence. Test safety always comes first, and developing good habits benefits you for life.
