Is there a time limit for taking the subject one exam after full-score education?

There is a time limit. The motor vehicle driver should, within 15 days, participate in a seven-day study of road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge at the traffic management department of the public security organ where the motor vehicle driver's license was issued or where the illegal act occurred. After the motor vehicle driver completes the study, the vehicle management office should conduct a road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge exam (subject one) within 20 days. Here is more related information: Driver's license points: Driver's license points are a penalty for traffic violations by drivers. Depending on the severity of the road traffic safety violation, points can range from a maximum of 12 to a minimum of 1 per violation. The points cycle is one inspection period. If a driver accumulates 12 points in one cycle, they lose their driving qualification. Typically, they must undergo no less than 7 days of traffic safety education and pass the exam before their driving qualification can be restored. Points serve to enforce drivers' compliance with traffic safety laws, thereby reducing the incidence of traffic accidents. However, in practice, the penalty of points for drivers often lacks seriousness and standardization, making the points system merely a formality.
Having taken the driver's license test myself, I know a bit about the process. After completing the full-score education, there's usually no specific time limit for taking the Theory Test (Subject 1). You can register as soon as the education is finished, but don't delay too long to avoid policy changes or forgetting the knowledge. I recommend booking the test immediately and using mobile apps to review theoretical knowledge, keeping your brain active. I've seen people procrastinate for half a year before taking the test, only to find the exam content updated, forcing them to relearn everything - a waste of both time and money. Safety comes first - passing Subject 1 early allows you to focus on the road without distractions. Remember to go through official DMV channels to avoid being scammed by intermediaries. Ideally, you should complete everything within a week.
