I remember when I signed up for the Subject 2 driving test, it seemed quite simple at first, but taking it step by step is really important. First, you must pass the Subject 1 theory test before you can apply for Subject 2. I went to the local DMV or designated driving school registration point myself, bringing my original ID card and copies, a few one-inch photos, and filling out a registration form. The registration fee is around a few hundred yuan, depending on the region, and you can pay in cash or by scanning a QR code. After that, the staff will arrange training times and assign a coach. Usually, the training ground will notify you of the test date—remember to visit the site in advance to familiarize yourself with it. Don’t be like me during my first practice session, forgetting to bring a water bottle and suffering from the heat. After signing up, don’t just wait around—ask your coach to borrow the car for extra practice on small tasks like reversing into a parking space or parallel parking to reduce exam nerves. The whole process takes about one to two weeks, but the key is to prepare all materials promptly to avoid missing the prime training period.

The process of registering for Subject 2 (Parking Test) is quite straightforward. I took it several times when I was younger, so let me share my experience. Basically, right after passing Subject 1 (Theory Test), you should go register immediately. The location is usually at the driving school office or the vehicle management office—make sure you don’t go to the wrong place. You’ll need to prepare your ID card, photos, and the registration fee. Nowadays, many places support online appointments to save time. Once registered, they’ll assign a training plan. I recommend choosing a reliable coach and practicing parking skills more to avoid mistakes during the test. The fee generally ranges from 500 to 800 yuan, but it varies significantly by city, so check local policies in advance to avoid being overcharged. If everything goes smoothly, the test can usually be scheduled within ten days. Don’t forget to bring water and snacks, as the waiting time at the test center can be long.

Applying for the Subject 2 driving test is not as complicated as imagined. After passing Subject 1, just go to the designated spot to submit materials like your ID card and photos, fill out a form, pay the fee, and you're done. Book driving practice immediately after registration, focusing especially on hill starts to avoid any mishaps. The whole process can be completed in just a few days at the fastest.
