What to do if I didn't sign after the Subject 2 driving test?
3 Answers
According to regulations, candidates must sign after the test regardless of passing or failing. As stipulated in the 'Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driving Licenses': The score sheet for each subject must bear the signatures of both the applicant and the examiner. No driving license can be issued without signatures. Additional information: Examiners shall conscientiously perform their duties, strictly adhere to testing regulations, and accept public supervision. Before the test, they should introduce themselves, explain test requirements, and verify the applicant's identity; during the test, they must strictly follow procedures and evaluate results based on test items and standards; after the test, they should announce scores on the spot and explain reasons for failure.
I took the driving test (Subject 2) last year. I was so excited when it ended that I left directly, completely forgetting to sign. The next day, I received a notification from the driving school saying my result was invalid, which really startled me. I immediately called the test center's customer service, explained the situation, and they asked me to bring my ID card to sign on-site. Fortunately, it wasn't past the deadline, otherwise I would have had to retake the test. I suggest you contact the driving school or test center as soon as possible to explain the situation—most places will arrange for you to sign later. Don't delay, as waiting too long might lock the result in the system, making things troublesome. Also, after the test, stay calm and remember to check all documents. During training, ask your instructor more about the details to avoid many mistakes.
I've seen many cases where people pass Subject 2 but forget to sign. You need to act quickly, preferably contact the test center on the same day and bring your ID card to explain the situation. If they have records showing you passed the exam, they might just ask you to sign retroactively. If there's no record, you may need to retake the test, so don't delay too long. During my teaching, I always emphasize that signing is a crucial step to confirm your results—missing it is like not completing the exam. Think of solutions, like calling the official hotline or asking your driving school to help mediate. Remember, such basic mistakes are common but fixable, so don’t panic and make things worse. Learn from this lesson and avoid making the same mistake when taking Subject 3 next time.
