Is an Appointment Required for Subject 4?
2 Answers
Subject 4 does not require an appointment. Below is some information about Subject 4: Relevant regulations: The vehicle management office shall arrange the test according to the scheduled test site and time. After passing Subject 1, the applicant can schedule Subject 2 or Subject 3 road driving skills test. In some areas, applicants can simultaneously schedule Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests, and upon successful scheduling, they can take the tests consecutively. Subject 4 test: After passing both Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests, the applicant can participate in the Subject 3 safety and civilized driving knowledge test on the same day.
As a young person who just passed the driving test, my experience is that Subject 4 indeed requires advance booking, otherwise you can't even enter the test center. I remember last year when preparing for Subject 4, I had to make an appointment using the Traffic Management 12123 App on my phone. The system would release test slots for the coming days, and during peak times, I had to set an alarm to grab a spot. Usually, you should check the schedule about a week in advance to choose a suitable date, like Saturdays being very crowded, while weekdays might be easier to book. A text reminder would arrive the day before the test, and you just need to bring your ID card and admission ticket to arrive on time. I've seen several cases where people were turned away at the door for not having an appointment, which is quite troublesome. The booking platform isn't limited to the App; you can also register in person at the local vehicle management office, but the queues are long and inefficient. Overall, planning ahead is key to avoid delaying your license process. Also, remember to use online question banks for revision, and after a successful booking, double-check your test slot details to ensure you don't go to the wrong place. On the test day, arrive early to prepare, stay calm, and passing will be quite easy.
