Is an ID card required for the Subject 2 mock test?

An ID card is required for the Subject 2 mock test. For the official Subject 2 driving test, if you don't have an ID card, you can obtain a temporary ID card from the local public security authority and use it for the driving test. Below is relevant information about Subject 2: Introduction: Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 2 test items for small vehicles (C1/C2): Include five mandatory items—reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-turns). Some regions may have a sixth item: highway toll card collection. Subject 2 test items for large vehicles (A1/A2/A3/B1/B2): Include stake test, stopping and starting on a slope, parallel parking, driving over a single-plank bridge, curve driving, right-angle turns, passing through a narrow gate, passing through continuous obstacles, driving on bumpy roads, narrow road U-turns, as well as simulated highway driving, continuous sharp mountain curves, tunnels, rain (fog) conditions, slippery roads, and emergency handling.
During my recent practice session for the second driving test, the driving school staff repeatedly emphasized the necessity of bringing the original ID card. Without it, they cannot verify your identity and may deny your participation in the test. The mock exam strictly follows the official procedure, including check-in, registration, and monitoring. Although it's a practice, the purpose is to familiarize yourself with the test environment, and identity verification is part of it. I recommend keeping your ID card in your wallet in advance and not forgetting it on the test day. If you occasionally forget, you can contact the driving school to see if they accept electronic IDs or copies, but the safest option is still the original card. Some driving schools may also require a student ID as supplementary proof, depending on their specific regulations. In short, don't take chances to avoid unnecessary trips that could disrupt your practice schedule and test mood.
