2 Answers
The percentage of people who pass the driving test on their first attempt is between 25% and 35%. Here are specific details about the driving test: Overview: The motor vehicle driver's test is a qualification examination organized by the Vehicle Management Office of the Public Security Bureau. Only by passing the driver's test can one obtain a driver's license and legally operate a motor vehicle. Four Tests: Subjects 1 to 4 are the Road Traffic Safety Laws, Regulations, and Related Knowledge Test, the Field Driving Skills Test, the Road Driving Skills Test, and the Safe and Civilized Driving Related Knowledge Test. Test Sequence: The tests are conducted in the order of Subject 1, Subject 2, Subject 3, and Subject 4. After passing the previous subject, one is allowed to take the next subject.
I remember when I was taking my driving test, I also hoped to pass on the first try and was lucky enough to succeed. However, from what I see among my circle of friends, the proportion of people who pass on the first attempt isn’t very high—I’d estimate around 60% in our city. Some people, due to nervousness or insufficient practice, need two or three attempts to pass. The most common mistakes during the road test are parallel parking and yielding to pedestrians at intersections. Practicing the test route multiple times before the exam can significantly increase your chances of success. Finding a good instructor and practicing for an hour daily for two or three weeks will build your confidence and make it easier to pass on the first try. Keeping a calm mindset is crucial—don’t think about what might go wrong, just focus on the driving. In summary, the pass rate varies by region, with stricter cities possibly having rates below 50%, but with diligence, you can catch up to the average.
