During these classes, the prospective driver must acquire all the necessary skills and abilities to be able to participate safely and confidently in heavy road traffic<\/span><\/p>\n

Age restrictions for different driver’s licence categories\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

If the driver has met all the above conditions but does not have the required number of years for the respective driver’s licence category, he or she will have to wait for taking the exams. Before the CSDD driving exam, you must pass the theory exam. The age limits for the categories are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 14 years \u2013 for category “AM”;<\/span><\/li>\n

      Cars and routes are selected by special computer programs<\/b><\/h2>\n

      It is impossible for a prospective driver to apply for a favourite route or to influence the inspector’s choice in any way, because it is done by a special computer program based on specific system, which makes it 100% safe. Often, students also look for the same model of car as in driving examinations at the Road Traffic Safety Directorate (CSDD). In fact, this notion should be regarded a myth and the most important factor for one’s success is the driver’s experience, confidence and professionalism, which allow you to drive any car equally well.<\/span><\/p>\n

      What happens on the date of driving examination at the Road Traffic Safety Directorate (CSDD)?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

      Upon arrival at the selected CSDD branch, one must register and meet the inspector in the waiting room. In order to reduce anxiety and psychological barriers, it is recommended to smile at the inspector, look into the eyes and shake hands. Then, together with the inspector, you have to go to the figure training zone, where the first part of the exam takes place for all driver’s licence categories. If this part is passed successfully, the prospective driver must participate in real road traffic.<\/span><\/p>\n
