Subject 2 does offer retake opportunities. For both Subject 2 and Subject 3 of the motor vehicle driver's test, candidates are given five examination attempts each. Each attempt includes one initial test and one immediate retest if failed (providing up to 10 testing opportunities in total). Starting from the third registration, candidates are required to pay a retake fee for each subsequent attempt. Below is relevant information about Subject 2: Teaching Objectives: Master the fundamental driving operation essentials, acquire basic vehicle control capabilities; proficiently grasp basic methods for site and on-site road driving, develop the ability to rationally use vehicle control components and accurately manage the spatial position of the vehicle, enabling precise control over the vehicle's position, speed, and route. Scope of Items: For small vehicles C1 and C2, the examination includes five mandatory items: reverse parking, parallel parking, stopping and starting on a slope, right-angle turns, and curve driving (commonly known as S-curve). Some regions may include a sixth item: high-speed toll card collection.

I was also worried about this right after passing Subject Two. My driving school instructor told me that there are a total of 5 exam attempts for Subject Two, and you can schedule a retake 10 days after failing the first time. If you fail all 5 times, you’ll have to start over from Subject One. However, most students under our instructor pass within three attempts. He said the key is to identify the mistakes from the first try—for example, if you keep stalling on the hill start, focus on practicing clutch control. It’s best to get a couple of days of practice before each retake to regain the feel for the car. Honestly, retakes can be less stressful since you’re already familiar with the test route. Failing a few times isn’t embarrassing at all—I know plenty of people who only passed on a retake. The important thing is to master the skills for safe driving. The retake fee isn’t expensive either, just around a hundred yuan.

For the second subject of the driving test, there are retake opportunities, with a total of 5 attempts including the initial test. When my wife took her driving test last year, she failed the first time because the car crossed the line during the reverse parking, but she passed the retake two weeks later. It's advisable to review with the instructor immediately after failing. Issues like inaccurate alignment during parallel parking can be resolved with a few extra practice sessions. Retaking the test is quite convenient now, with quick scheduling available on the Traffic Management 12123 app. According to the driving school principal, about 80% of their students pass within two attempts. By the way, the retake fee is approximately 130-180 yuan, varying by location. Getting enough sleep before the test is crucial—I've seen many people make mistakes due to nervousness, with their hands and feet shaking. Actually, making errors in the test center is quite common; practicing more to find your own rhythm is what matters most.

The option to retake the second driving test is indeed a great help. There are a total of 5 exam attempts, with at least 10 days between each. I remember retaking it because the car rolled back more than 30 cm after starting on a slope, and later I realized it was due to incorrect sitting posture affecting my judgment. Before the retake, I practiced slope starts for two hours daily, using a water bottle as a reference. The retake fee was 150 yuan, slightly cheaper than the first attempt. The instructor advised me not to rush to schedule the retake after failing; instead, first review the exam footage to identify the deduction points. It's recommended to focus on adjusting the rearview mirrors and seat position, as many people cross the line due to perspective issues. Actually, retakes are often easier to pass, as being more relaxed helps stabilize driving skills.
