What to Do If You Fail the Driving Test 5 Times?
2 Answers
If you fail either Subject 2 (Road Test) or Subject 3 (Driving Skills Test) five times, your previous scores will be invalidated. If you still wish to obtain a driver's license, you must cancel your personal information at the driving school and re-enroll for training. Relevant details are as follows: 1. Article 44 of the "Regulations on the Application and Use of Motor Vehicle Driver's Licenses": Each subject can be taken once, and if you fail, you can retake it once. If you do not attend the retest or fail the retest, the current test session ends, and the applicant must reschedule the test. However, Subject 2 and Subject 3 tests must be rescheduled at least 10 days later. If you fail the Subject 3 Safety and Civilized Driving Knowledge Test, the passing scores for the road driving skills test remain valid. 2. No more than five attempts: Within the validity period of the learning driving permit, the number of scheduled attempts for Subject 2 and Subject 3 road driving skills tests must not exceed five. If you fail the fifth scheduled test, all previously passed subjects will be invalidated.
I also failed my driving test several times before finally passing when I was about to give up. The key is not to get discouraged. Looking back, I was too nervous and made many operational mistakes. Later, I practiced an extra hour every day, found a quiet road to simulate the test environment, and especially repeated parallel parking and reversing into a bay until it became second nature. Before the test, eat something to keep your energy up—don’t go in hungry. After each attempt, immediately analyze the reasons, like checking the score sheet to see where you lost the most points, and improve accordingly. Practicing with a friend or instructor for real-time feedback is very helpful—don’t be afraid to ask for help. After persisting for half a year, things suddenly clicked, and my confidence grew. Remember, this is just a small step—don’t treat it as a measure of success or failure in life. Relax and approach the test like everyday driving, and you’ll succeed one day.
