Here is an introduction to the steps of learning to drive at a driving school: 1. Registration and physical examination, then apply to the vehicle management office for a driving school quota through the driving school. After approval, students will be notified to take the traffic regulations exam (known as the Subject 1 exam), which takes about 1 month. 2. Subject 1 is theoretical knowledge. Generally, after completing the required class hours, you can schedule the exam. A passing rate of 90% is usually required. If you fail, you can retake the exam immediately. If you still fail, you will have to wait for the next retake. There is no limit to the number of retakes for Subject 1 until you pass. After passing the Subject 1 exam, you can schedule the Subject 2 exam, which can be arranged as soon as 2 weeks later. 3. Within 2 weeks after passing the Subject 2 exam, the Subject 3 exam will be scheduled. 4. Within 3 days after passing the Subject 3 exam, the Subject 4 exam will be arranged. 5. After passing the Subject 4 exam, you will receive your driver's license.
Looking back, my experience of learning to drive was quite fulfilling. It all started with enrolling at the driving school, filling out forms, paying fees, and undergoing a medical check-up to ensure there were no health issues that could hinder driving. Then came studying traffic rules—reading books, watching videos, and practicing questions on apps to prepare for the written test (Subject 1). The exam wasn’t hard; memorizing the questions was enough. After passing the written test, the real training began—getting behind the wheel. The instructor taught me how to start, stop, and practice reverse parking, turning the steering wheel until my arms ached. The Subject 2 yard test made me a bit nervous, but I passed on the first try—practice makes perfect. Subject 3, the road test, was thrilling, navigating real roads while watching out for pedestrians and other vehicles, signaling, and checking mirrors—all essential. After passing these, Subject 4 covered civilized driving theory questions, a breeze to wrap up and get the license. The whole process took me two and a half months. A reminder to everyone: don’t drag it out; learn early to gain experience sooner. Take a sip of water before driving to steady your hands. Don’t regret the money spent—safety and getting the license are what matter most.
