For Theory Test (Subject 1), a score of 90 is required to pass. The passing criteria for Practical Tests (Subject 2 and Subject 3) are more complex. Here are the detailed passing standards: Subject 2: For applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required to pass. For other vehicle types, a score of 80 is sufficient. Subject 3: Similarly, for applicants of large buses, tractors, city buses, medium buses, and large trucks, a score of 90 is required to pass. For other vehicle types, a score of 80 is sufficient.

The passing score for the driver's license test depends on the subject type. Subjects 1 and 4 are theoretical exams, with a full score of 100, and you only need to score 90 to pass. Subject 2, the field test, is a bit special—it also has a full score of 100, but 80 is enough to pass. However, be aware that mistakes like crossing the line will result in an immediate fail. Subject 3, the road test, is the strictest. Although it also has a full score of 100, you need 90 to pass because it involves actual driving safety. All exams offer two attempts, with an immediate retake allowed after the first failure. For large vehicle licenses, the passing score is higher—90 is required for Subject 2. If you fail, you must wait ten days before scheduling a retake.

As a fresh graduate from driving school, I can testify: the passing score for the computer-based tests of Subject 1 and Subject 4 is 90 points. For Subject 2 (closed-course test) which includes reverse parking and parallel parking, the passing score is 80 points but with low fault tolerance - touching the line with wheels means immediate 100-point deduction. Subject 3 (road test) is the most challenging with 90-point passing threshold, where forgetting a turn signal can cost you 10 points. Our instructors reminded us to remember key points like gently braking at bus stops and maintaining 30km/h speed limit in school zones - every detail counts. For B-class license and above, it's even harder with Subject 2 requiring 90 points. If you fail, don't panic - remember to book a retake in advance via the 12123 traffic management app.

As a traffic management officer, here's the standard answer: For the Category C driver's license test, a score of 90 is required to pass both Theory Test (Subject 1) and Safety & Civilization Test (Subject 4). For the Yard Driving Test (Subject 2), the passing score is 80, while the Road Driving Test (Subject 3) requires 90 points. Pay special attention to the differences in test rules. For example, stopping midway during Subject 2 now only deducts 5 points after the rule change, but driving over the boundary line still results in immediate failure. During the 3-kilometer Subject 3 test, details like forgetting to release the handbrake when starting or changing lanes without checking mirrors will cost you 10 points each. A special reminder for those taking the large vehicle (Category A/B) test: the passing score for Subject 2 has been raised to 90. There must be at least 10 working days between retests for all subjects.
