All your friends who have taken the driver's license know that kosei is the hardest person on the road. After months and dozens of car exercises, one of the first things i thought was, "can you just take the test while it's hot?" after all, no one wants to finish school for another 10 and a half days。
Today, using the latest driving test in 2026, you can pass the subject directly to the fourth class, what's the difference, how do you plan to spend the most time。
Let's be clear: it's official
A lot of people don't know what we're talking about as “section four”, the official name of which is the driving commons of subject three, which is essentially the theoretical part of section three, not the independent subject。
Article 39 of decree no. 162 of the ministry of public security (in force since 2022 and in force since 2026) clearly stipulates that applicants may take the driving commons test for the third subject of safety civilization on the same day after they have completed the examination for driving skills in the second and third subjects。
In short, the policy level is entirely acceptable, and once the department has passed, it will be able to pass the exam on that day without imposing a waiting period. But why would someone have to wait for the day? At the heart of this is the fact that the details of implementation vary from place to place, not from country to country。
Henan update 2026: 3 cases, day/9 day/scheduled examination
In conjunction with the practical arrangements for the 2026 driving examination in henan, section iii passed the examination in four main categories, with three main categories, and was able to see the following:
1. On that day's examination (most economical, priority)
In most major cities, such as zhengzhou, loyang and namyang, green entrances have been opened。
- conditions: the section completes three morning examinations and within two hours the results are uploaded into the hands of 12123, indicating “qualified”; there are four remaining places at the examination。
- processes: section iii qualified signatures do not need to go back to the driving school and go straight to the entrance examination in the iv theoretical area。
- advantages: the certificate was not a dream, the third and fourth in the morning, and the examination was completed on the spot, without having to run the second one。
“on-and-on-take” within 9 days (no appointment, excellent convenience)
Henan-wide general policy: section iii is exempt from appointment for the first exam within nine days of qualifying date。
- rules: no appointments are made at the hands of 12123 persons, no identification cards are taken directly to the point of entry, and no place is taken in line。
- reminds me that the first examination is limited to four or nine days, or that the first examination is suspended, and that a regular appointment is required。
3. 9-day appointment examination (general, conservative)
For more than nine days without the entrance exam, or without the opening of an online examination at the examination site, follow the normal procedure:
- operation: access to the 12123 app booking subject of the safety civil aviation commons test 3 is close to the examination site and time。
- spacing: it usually covers approximately 3 to 7 days, which is not long, and the advance brush is sufficient。
These missteps! Many have waited for days for nothing
Mistake 1: section 3 has to wait seven days to take the exam
Wrong! There is no national unification of the seven-day mandatory waiting period, which is old. Under the new regulations of 2026, it is shorter than 7 days for the day to be tested and to be exempted from appointment within 9 days, so as not to be delayed by old statements。
Miss 2: section 4 has a private appointment. Section 3 can't take it directly
Section iv is part of section iii, not a separate subject, and the policy allows for continuous examinations on the same day without separate appointments. A lot of people don't know. It's been a week。
Mistake 3: section 3 has not been uploaded
Not all of them. Henan c. S.'s three grades can now be synchronized within almost two hours, and it's done in the morning and it'll be found in the afternoon. Just show the word “qualified” and you can take the test directly, without waiting for the next day。
After that, qi will be able to prove it as soon as possible
1. Pre-academic preparation: i'm going to swipe my car while i'm at it
Don't wait for section iii to do it again! It takes 30 minutes a day for section iii to do a four-discussion library (1,229 items in total, no new in 2026). Section iv is a matter of case, graphics. It is easy. It is done ahead of schedule。
2. Section 3 day: examination completed in the morning and direct to section 4 in the afternoon
- when section iii is qualified, sign on the spot to confirm the results。
- open the transfer tube 12123 and refresh the 3rd section to show “qualified” and go directly to the 4th section。
- carrying identification cards, making no appointments, queuing directly into the field, 45 minutes, 50 questions, 90 points。
3. Missing day: 9 days to take time off and no appointments
It doesn't matter if you didn't take the exam the same day. You can do it in half an hour if you don't have to make an appointment to take the exam on any day of nine days。
4. Over 9 days or suspended: regular appointments, no panic
You haven't taken the exam in over nine days, or is it the first time that division's dead? The entry of 12123 appointments on the transfer line is sufficient, and section iv is limited in the number of uncompensated examinations, free of charge and hung up again, without prejudice to section iii accomplishments。
New changes in 2026, related to sections iii and iv
There is no new section: henanco iv or 1229 in 2026, with no new features, focusing on the topics of “driven weather, accident management, civil comity”。
2. A certificate of study is valid for three years: a certificate of study driving after the first qualification must be completed in all subjects within three years, otherwise the achievement must be invalidated and re-take the first grade。
3. Expatriate examinations are more convenient: in henancau, he can take the test in any city in henan, without going back to the original driver's school。
Wrap-up: section 3 is over, so you can take the exam the same day, and you'll be excused for nine days
One sentence is clear: in 2026, after the third section, the policy allowed direct entrance to the fourth examination; most of the examinations in henan were available on the same day, with no appointments for nine days and no regular appointments for more than nine days。
Don't be misled by the old saying, “we have to wait seven days”, that the 3rd section was able to clean up early and take the test while it was hot。
Did you go through all this together? Are you going to go to school that day or wait a few days? Let's talk about your driver's exam. Let's get your license
