Why was the First Examination Site in Guandu District Closed?
2 Answers
The closure of the first examination site in Guandu District is due to continuous heavy rainfall, resulting in significant water accumulation. Below are the specific details of the new driving test regulations: Adjustment of test scheduling time: For obtaining a small automatic transmission vehicle driver's license, the interval for scheduling the third subject test has been shortened from 30 days after passing the first subject test to 20 days; for upgrading to a large or medium-sized passenger or truck driver's license, the scheduling interval for the third subject test has been reduced from 40 days after passing the first subject test to 30 days. Adjustment of cross-regional subject test attempts: For applying for a small car driver's license, the number of times allowed to apply for changing the test location has been adjusted from once to no more than three times, to meet the public's demand for cross-regional testing. Reduction of proxy materials: If applicants cannot promptly handle the replacement or renewal of their driver's license or other traffic management services, they can authorize others to handle it through the Traffic Management 12123 platform without the need to provide a paper authorization certificate.
I've been driving a taxi for over a decade and often transport examinees to test centers. The closure of the Guandu District No.1 Test Center is mainly due to aging equipment issues. The old devices can't support the upgrade of the new driver's license examination system, such as intelligent monitoring and simulated driving technology. Recently, I heard the screens often freeze, affecting exam fairness. Safety inspections revealed potential hazards at the site, including a too-narrow entrance prone to congestion, leading to temporary closure for maintenance to prevent accidents. It will reopen in two months with smarter and more reliable facilities. Examinees can temporarily take tests at nearby centers. Driving test safety always comes first—upgrades are necessary despite short-term inconveniences for long-term benefits.
