What are the question types for the Subject 1 exam?

[McLuke]

The questions for Subject 1 of the motor vehicle driver's license exam are divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, totaling 100 questions. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," each question is worth 1 point, with a total score of 100. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the exam, the system will automatically submit the test and end the exam. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The exam content includes theoretical driving knowledge, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The exam is conducted on a computer, with a time limit of 45 minutes. The content of the Subject 1 exam includes: driver's license and motor vehicle management regulations; road traffic conditions and regulations; road traffic safety violations and penalties; road traffic accident handling regulations; basic knowledge of motor vehicles; local regulations; knowledge of braking systems and safety devices for large and medium-sized passenger and freight vehicles; specialized knowledge for wheeled self-propelled machinery, trams, and trolleybuses. Notes for the Subject 1 exam: During the exam, candidates should pay attention to their attire—no sandals are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the exam room. Bring your ID card and queue to enter the waiting hall. Observe the instructions and procedures on the large screen, and store personal belongings in lockers before entering the exam room. Upon entering, the identity verification station will assign a seat. After finding your seat, begin the exam. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and follow exam discipline. If you fail the first attempt, a retake is available on the same day. If you fail again, you must pay to reschedule. After the exam, queue to collect your score report and sign it. Failure to sign will render the result invalid. There is no limit to the number of times you can schedule the Subject 1 exam. Each subject can be taken once, with one retake allowed if you fail. If you do not take the retake or fail the retake, the exam process ends, and you must reschedule. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 have only five exam attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 exams can be rescheduled after ten days. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, your passing score for the road driving skills test remains valid. There are three subjects in the driver's license exam: Subject 1, Subject 2, and Subject 3. Subject 1 refers to the road traffic safety laws, regulations, and related knowledge test. Subject 2 refers to the field driving skills test. Subject 3 is divided into two parts: road driving skills and safe and civilized driving knowledge. The safe and civilized driving knowledge test is conducted after Subject 3, so it is commonly referred to as Subject 4. However, the official term (as per the Ministry of Public Security's Order No. 123) does not include "Subject 4."

I just passed the written test for my driver's license recently, and I remember the question types mainly fall into a few categories: multiple-choice and true/false questions are the core parts. Multiple-choice questions include single-answer and multiple-answer questions. Single-answer questions are the type where you choose one option from A, B, C, or D, often asking about traffic rules like speed limits or turning requirements. Multiple-answer questions require selecting several correct answers, with classic examples like precautions for overtaking. True/false questions present a statement for you to judge as correct or incorrect, such as whether stopping on the highway is allowed. The test is taken on a computer, mixing these types across 100 questions, and you need a score of 90 or above to pass. The questions are quite comprehensive, covering safety knowledge and sign recognition—for example, you must remember the colors of parking signs. Using an app to practice the question bank, I found that frequent practice works well. Beginners can easily get confused, so I recommend avoiding rote memorization. The question design ensures that drivers master the basics before hitting the road to reduce accidents, so don’t take it lightly.

Those who have passed the subject one test like me have experience. The question types are mainly multiple-choice, including single-choice and multiple-choice questions. Single-choice questions dominate, asking directly about rules like traffic signals, while multiple-choice questions test details and are prone to errors due to incomplete selections. True or false questions are fewer but full of traps, such as handling slippery roads. The test randomly selects 100 questions, with a passing score of 90, focusing on traffic regulations and safety knowledge. During my preparation, I focused on practicing question types in the APP question bank and found that I often made mistakes in true or false questions due to misunderstandings of common knowledge. Doing more questions helped build a knowledge framework and avoid losing points due to nervousness in the actual test. The question structure aims to cultivate practical skills, not just rote knowledge; after passing the test, I pay more attention to following the rules when driving.

As an experienced driver with a child who just took the theory test (Subject 1), he mentioned the questions were straightforward: single-choice questions covered basic rules like speed limits, while multiple-choice questions involved complex scenarios. True/false questions required judging the correctness of given statements. The computer-based test took about 20 minutes to complete, with question types designed to align with real-world situations to protect novice drivers' safety. I believe the core purpose of these question types is to ensure kids truly grasp driving principles without carelessness—practicing with question banks is key, nothing too difficult. Exam preparation shouldn’t be overly stressful.
