Is the Streamlined 500-Question Bank for Subject 4 Accurate?
2 Answers
No. The exam questions are randomly selected from over 1,000 questions in the complete Subject 1 and Subject 4 question banks, not just the streamlined 500 questions. However, to help students save practice time, the streamlined 500-question bank removes simple common-sense questions, rarely tested questions, and questions with obvious answers—most students can answer these correctly. Below is a detailed introduction to Subject 4: Concept: Subject 4 is an additional safety and civility knowledge test following the Subject 3 road test. Officially, there is no "Subject 4" designation. Exam Content: The test consists of 50 questions, primarily in the form of case studies, images, and animations. The total score is 100, with a passing mark of 90. Key topics include safe and civilized driving requirements, safe driving knowledge under adverse weather and complex road conditions, emergency handling methods for situations like tire blowouts, and post-accident response procedures.
When I was preparing for the exam, I also wondered whether streamlined question banks were reliable. Based on my personal experience, the 500-question version covered most of the key points, including must-know topics like traffic signs and safe driving principles. However, last year my cousin encountered two obscure questions about highway accident handling that weren’t included in the streamlined version. Using such question banks as a foundation is perfectly fine, but it’s best to use a full-question bank app in the final week to fill any gaps. Focus on memorizing high-frequency challenging topics like fine and penalty questions, and during the exam, read each question carefully to avoid being misled by tricky options. After all, the exam draws questions randomly, so preparing an extra 10% can give you more peace of mind.
