What Happens If You Don't Sign After Passing Subject 2 of the Driving Test?
3 Answers
Not signing after passing Subject 2 of the driving test does not affect your score, as long as the information on your admission ticket and valid ID is correct during the exam. Generally, the test center or driving school will sign on your behalf. Subject 2, also known as the small road test, is part of the motor vehicle driver's license assessment and is short for the field driving skills test. Below is relevant information about Subject 2: 1. Relevant details: Starting from June 1, 2021, the "slope fixed-point parking and starting" item will be removed from Subject 2 of the small automatic transmission vehicle driver's license test. 2. Teaching objectives: Master the basic driving operation essentials and possess the fundamental ability to control the vehicle; proficiently grasp the basic methods of field and in-field road driving, have the ability to reasonably use vehicle control components and correctly control the vehicle's spatial position, and be able to accurately control the vehicle's driving position, speed, and route.
I've taken the driving license test several times. If you don't sign after passing Subject Two, your score is likely to be invalidated. Signing is a crucial step to officially confirm the test results, just like finalizing a contract. Without your signature, the system won't record your passing score, and you won't be able to register for Subject Three. The consequence is having to reschedule Subject Two, repay the fees, and retrain, wasting both time and money. I remember last year a fellow test-taker was so excited that they left directly after passing, forgetting to sign, and ended up spending an extra half-month retaking the test, delaying their progress. The test center staff might remind you, but if it's too crowded, you have to pay attention yourself. So every time after the test, I make sure to go straight to the signing area to queue up and sign, ensuring everything is properly filed. This might seem like a small thing, but it has big consequences—don't let negligence ruin your plans.
Shortly after getting my driver's license, I experienced the embarrassment of almost forgetting to sign. During the subject two test, I was so exhausted and eager to leave that the examiner had to call me back to sign. If I hadn't signed, the results would have automatically become invalid. The entire driver's license examination process relies on signatures to confirm the validity of the results. Without a signature, it's as if all the effort was in vain—the results don't count, and even registering for subject three gets blocked. You'd have to reschedule the test, not to mention the additional cost and mental toll. At that moment, I realized I could only truly relax after signing. So, after every test, don't overthink it—just head straight to the signing area and get it done before resting. Don't be like me, only thinking about escaping the test center and ending up causing trouble. Signing is an insurance measure to smoothly move on to the next step.
