Is an Appointment Required for Subject 4?
2 Answers
Subject 4 does not require an appointment. Subject 4, also known as the Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test, must be taken on the same day after passing the Subject 3 Road Driving Skills Test. In some regions, applicants can simultaneously schedule appointments for both Subject 2 and Subject 3 Road Driving Skills Tests. If the appointments are successfully made, the tests can be taken consecutively. After passing both Subject 2 and Subject 3 Road Driving Skills Tests, applicants can take the Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test on the same day. Additional Information: 1. The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" stipulates: Article 38: Applicants learning to drive on training grounds and roads must obtain a Learning to Drive Certificate as required. The Learning to Drive Certificate is valid for three years, and applicants must complete Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests within this period. Those who fail to complete the tests within the validity period will have their previously passed subject scores invalidated. The Learning to Drive Certificate can be in paper or electronic form, both of which hold equal validity. Applicants can print or download the Learning to Drive Certificate via the Internet-based Comprehensive Traffic Safety Service Management Platform. 2. Article 44: Each subject test allows one retake for those who fail. Those who do not take the retake or fail the retake will have their current test session terminated and must reschedule the test. However, Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests can only be rescheduled after ten days. For those who fail the Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test, the passed Road Driving Skills Test scores remain valid.
Of course, the subject four test requires advance reservation. Let me share my personal experience. I remember when I took the driver's license test for the first time, subject four had to be scheduled through the official app like 'Traffic Management 12123'. The general process is to log in to your account, select the test center and time, click submit, and then wait for the confirmation message. Don't miss the date. When making an appointment, it's important to choose a day when you're in good condition. Reviewing the question bank in advance is crucial, and don't just focus on answering questions while neglecting the key points of safety knowledge. If you miss the appointment, you'll have to queue up again, which can be quite a hassle. It's recommended to regularly check the app for updates. As someone who has been through it, I think the key is to simulate the real exam scenario more often, keep a relaxed mindset, and not complicate the reservation process—just understand the rules.
