All students need to be 15 years old or older. They are required to take eye and reaction tests and then to take at least 15 training hours (10-hour practical and 5-hour theoretical sessions) and to finally take the practical and theoretical tests. Students’ driving skills are a must for the application. Only school training vehicles are used for the instructions and the tests. The driving license course is valid within 180 days starting from the first day of a student’s fingerprint scanning in the department of land transportation system, done at the school.
The 10-hour practical session
Students can take the course on their preferred date and complete 10 hours practical session within one day starting from 8a.m – 7p.m. (Monday – Sunday). A practical session is conducted in a group, consisting of 10-20 students.
When the accumulative practical hour of each student reaches 10 hours as required, students can take the 3 practical tests at school at the end of the day. If students do not pass any of the practical tests, students are required to retake only the test that they failed by contacting the administrative office to make a schedule for the retest. If students still do not pass any retest, they are required to do additional retests by contacting the administrative office to make a schedule for the next retest.
The 5-hour theoretical session
The 5-hour theoretical sessions and the theoretical tests are available every Thursday, Saturday and Sunday; starting from 10 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. The school will provide VDO with English subtitle for students to watch on that day. When the accumulative theoretical hour of each student reaches 5 hours as required, students can take a theoretical test at the end of the day. The criterion for passing the theoretical test is at least 45 marks from 50 questions (1 mark for 1 question). If students fail the test, they can do one retest on the same day. If students do not pass the retest, they are required to do additional retests by contacting the administrative office to make a schedule for the next retests.
When students apply to the course, they will receive digital links of the driving license practice tests to practice samples of the theoretical tests.
When passing all the practical and theoretical tests, students will receive the certificate from the school. This certificate is valid for 6 months; starting from the day when the certificate is issued. Students present the certificate to the department of Land Transportation to process the driving license.
Course for beginners and students who intend to improve their driving skills: Practice Driving Course (4-6 hours)
D-1 Driving School also provides practice driving courses for beginners who have insufficient driving skills. Students should take at least 4-6 hours of driving practice course and be evaluated at the end of the course by an instructor to determine if they are ready to take the driving license course. The practice driving courses are also provided to those who already have the driving license but would like to practice more to improve their driving skills.
The class will be available in slots of 2 hours (during 8-10 a.m., 3-5p.m., and 5-7 p.m.) every day except Friday and Saturday and it is one-on-one training. We provide motorcycles, helmets, gloves, elbow and knee pads for students’ safety. Our instructors can speak some English, but they can take care of the foreign students.
For all the courses mentioned, instructors can teach using fair English language.
