Is the remaining time for the driver's license test on 12123 accurate?
3 Answers
The remaining time for the driver's license test on 12123 is accurate, as it is calculated based on the individual's driving test information entry. All subject tests must be completed within the three-year validity period. Additional information: How to check: Open the Traffic Management 12123 app, enter your account and password to log in; after entering the homepage, click "More," then find the "Exam Appointment" function in the driver's license section; click "Exam Appointment," select the test center, and the remaining time for the driver's license test will be displayed. If the validity period of the learning driving certificate is not shown, click the fold button to expand it. Impact of the pandemic: At the beginning of 2020, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, all vehicle management offices nationwide suspended driver's license test services. For candidates whose three-year validity period for the learning driving certificate was about to expire, the vehicle management department uniformly extended the test validity period. Some areas extended it by three months, while other regions provided longer extensions based on pandemic control measures and the resumption of driving tests.
I find the remaining time for the driving test displayed on 12123 is mostly reliable. When I was taking my driving test, I checked it several times, and it basically matched the notifications from the driving school, as the system backend updates the database in real-time. However, delays can occur when the network signal is poor or during server maintenance. Once, before my test, the App showed I still had a week left, but when I manually logged into the official website, it turned out there were only three days left—I almost missed it. Now I’ve learned my lesson: frequently refresh the page or enable SMS reminders. Don’t rely too much on a single tool, and always double-check a few days in advance. Safety comes first on the road—no room for carelessness.
As a young novice preparing for the driver's license test, I solely rely on the 12123 App to check the remaining time and plan my revision. Its interface is simple and practical, with data automatically updating upon each login, and the exam dates are generally accurate, saving me a lot of hassle. However, I once encountered a minor hiccup when a friend told me his App showed everything was normal, but upon arriving at the test center, he was informed the date had been changed—likely due to unsynchronized backend data from the driving school. I recommend everyone to routinely check both the App's notification bar and the driving school's announcements for double verification, ensuring no exam plans are disrupted by timing discrepancies.
