Is it okay if the three-year deadline is reached before taking the Subject 4 test?

If the three-year validity period of the driver's license application expires before you take the Subject 4 test, you will have to re-register and retake all the tests from the beginning. Content of the Subject 4 test: Depending on the type of driver's license being applied for, 50 questions are randomly selected from the corresponding Subject 4 test question bank in proportion. For car licenses, questions are selected from a pool of 800, while for large vehicle licenses, they are selected from 1023 questions, with each question worth 2 points. Subject 4 test procedure: Candidates must bring their ID card and arrive at the waiting room one hour before the scheduled time and session to verify their identity via fingerprint and obtain an exam number; wait in the designated waiting area; proceed to the assigned location as directed by staff; enter their ID number and click 'Confirm' to verify information before starting the test; answer questions in order, ensuring to manage time effectively; after completing the test, click 'Submit,' confirm submission, and the system will display the score (a passing score is 90 or above).
I know several trainees who were always busy with work and thought the driving test process would take a long time. As a result, they procrastinated until the three-year validity period expired, and they didn't even have time to take the Subject 4 test. By the time they realized it, their driving school records had already expired and become invalid. All previously passed subjects (1, 2, and 3) were nullified, forcing them to re-register and pay to start from scratch. Not only is the whole process troublesome, but it also costs several extra months. I suggest you check immediately how much time you have left and contact the driving school as soon as possible to schedule your Subject 4 test. Don't underestimate this matter—the cost and pressure of retaking after expiration are significant and can affect your travel plans. Set a reminder alarm for yourself and don't delay the test too late.
