Is the Subject 1 test score still valid after withdrawing from the driving school?
2 Answers
After passing the Subject 1 test, the score will be filed with the traffic management bureau. Withdrawing from the driving school will not affect the existing score. When applying for a replacement driver's license, you should fill out the application form and submit the following documents and proofs: 1. Proof 1: The identity proof of the motor vehicle driver. 2. Proof 2: A written statement of the loss of the motor vehicle driver's license. The following are relevant introductions about the driver's license: 1. Introduction 1: In China, a driver's license is defined as a legal document issued by the management department after a person who is legally allowed to learn to drive a motor vehicle has studied and mastered traffic regulations and driving skills, and passed the examination. It permits the holder to drive a certain type of motor vehicle. 2. Introduction 2: Driving a motor vehicle requires certain driving skills. Without these skills, driving a motor vehicle recklessly may lead to traffic accidents. Generally, people without a license cannot drive on the road. However, for those who have mastered safe driving skills, the document that allows them to drive vehicles on the road is the "driver's license," which indicates that the driver's license is a "permission certificate."
I've been working at a driving school for nearly ten years and often see students dropping out for various reasons. The validity period of the subject one exam results is generally one to two years in most places, depending on the local traffic bureau's regulations. After dropping out, the scores are usually still stored in the system and won't automatically expire, but you may need to proactively contact a new driving school or the traffic management department to check. My advice is not to panic—just use your ID number to check the record's validity on the traffic bureau's official website or app. If it's still valid, you can enroll in another driving school to continue with the remaining subjects, saving both time and money. Keep in mind that some places may charge a small handling fee, but retaking the exam is completely unnecessary and a waste of effort. In case of special circumstances, like if your scores can't be found, you can directly inquire at the service counter—the staff can assist you, which is much better than making blind guesses. It's important to handle this promptly to avoid delaying your driving progress.
