Is the driving test a total of five attempts or five attempts per subject?

Both Subject 2 and Subject 3 have five attempts. Below are the specific details of the test subjects: 1. Subject content: The test subjects include three items: traffic regulations and related knowledge, field driving, and road driving (including safe and civilized driving). The order of the test subjects is as follows: traffic regulations and related knowledge (referred to as Subject 1 [theory]), field driving (referred to as Subject 2 [nine items]), and road driving (referred to as Subject 3 [road test and safe and civilized driving]). 2. Number of attempts: During the test process, if a previous subject is failed, the following subjects will not be conducted. Each subject test has two attempts. If both attempts are failed, the current test is terminated. During the validity period of the learning driver's license, you can pay the retake fee and retake the test after learning. As for the retake fee, due to varying local conditions, the fees for retakes differ. 3. Test time: After completing the Subject 1 test, you must pass Subject 2 and Subject 3 within three years. If you cannot pass, the test content will be invalidated, and you must re-register for the Subject 1 test. Under the new regulations, both Subject 2 and Subject 3 have five attempts. If you cannot pass the test within the five attempts, you must retake the Subject 1 test.
I remember when I was getting my driver's license, I specifically asked the instructor, and he told me the rule is that each subject has five exam attempts. For example, the theory test (Subject 1) gives you five chances to retake it. If you fail all five times, you have to re-register and start from scratch. The same goes for Subject 2 (field driving), Subject 3 (road driving), and Subject 4 (common sense test)—each has five independent attempts. It's not a total of five attempts because each subject counts separately. When I took Subject 2, I failed the first time due to nerves, but I still had four retake opportunities and finally passed on the third try. People often say not to worry too much about failure—practice is key. It's recommended to do several mock tests before the exam to familiarize yourself with the process and reduce mistakes. Remember, after failing, you have to wait a while before retaking, so don’t waste your chances!
