1 Answers
The "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses" clearly stipulates the content of the Subject 1 test: road traffic safety laws, regulations, and rules; traffic signals and their meanings; knowledge of safe driving and civilized driving; safe driving knowledge under conditions such as highways, mountainous roads, bridges, tunnels, nighttime, adverse weather, and complex road conditions; emergency handling knowledge in situations like tire blowouts, steering failure, and brake failure; general structure of motor vehicles, common knowledge of main safety devices, basic knowledge of daily inspection and maintenance; basic knowledge of self-rescue and first aid after traffic accidents, as well as common hazardous materials. According to the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses," the Subject 1 test consists of 100 questions, divided into single-choice questions and true/false questions, with each question worth 1 point and a total score of 100 points. If 11 questions are answered incorrectly during the test, the system will automatically submit the test and end the examination. Subject 1, also known as the Subject 1 theory test or driver's theory test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment. The test content includes the theoretical basis of driving, road safety laws and regulations, local regulations, and related knowledge. The test is conducted on a computer with a time limit of 45 minutes. Subject 1 Test Notes: During the Subject 1 test, students should pay attention to their attire—no slippers are allowed, and electronic devices and bags are prohibited in the examination room. Bring your ID card and queue up to enter the waiting hall. Observe the precautions and procedures on the large screen, and place personal belongings in the lockers before entering the examination room. In the examination room, the identity verification station will assign seats. After finding your seat, begin the test. Ensure the camera is aligned with you and adhere to exam discipline. If you fail the first time, there is a retake opportunity on the same day. If you fail again, you will need to pay and reschedule. After the test, queue up 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 test. Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not attend the retake or fail the retake, the current test session will be terminated, and the applicant must reschedule the test. In contrast, Subject 2 and Subject 3 only allow five attempts. Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests must be scheduled at least ten days apart. If you fail the Subject 3 safe and civilized driving knowledge test, the previously passed road driving skills test scores remain valid. The driver's license test consists of three subjects: 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 test. 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 Order No. 123) does not include Subject 4.
