Is there a time limit between passing Subject 3 and taking Subject 4?
2 Answers
There is no time limit between Subject 3 and Subject 4, and you can schedule Subject 4 immediately. However, after passing Subject 1, the vehicle management office issues a learning-to-drive certificate, which is valid for three years. Below is relevant information about Subject 4: 1. Subject 4 Overview: Subject 4, also known as the theoretical test or driver theory exam, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. After the implementation of the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123, Subject 3 was divided into two parts: the road test and an additional safety and civility knowledge test, commonly referred to as "Subject 4," which assesses "driving ethics." 2. Exam Notes for Subject 4: Upon sitting down, first verify your examinee information. If it does not match your details, check if it is your assigned seat. If it is not, locate your correct seat. If the seat is correct but the information is wrong, report it immediately.
Right after passing Subject Three, I was also very concerned about the timing for Subject Four. Actually, the validity period of the driver's license exam starts from the day you pass Subject One, which is a full three years. After passing Subject Three, you must complete Subject Four within these three years, otherwise all previous results will be voided and you'll have to retake the exams. I remember last year there was a guy at our driving school who waited until two years and ten months had passed before taking Subject Four—he almost wasted all his previous efforts. My advice is to prepare for Subject Four right after passing Subject Three while the momentum is still strong. The questions are simpler than those in Subject One, and you can pass after just a few days of practice. Don’t wait until it’s too late and regret it.
