Taking a Driving License

Having a driving license is so important while you are driving on the road. It is something which gives you assurance that you will not be in any serious trouble if you have hit someone accidently. 

There are two ways to get a driving license. One is getting it by going through all the procedure and other is short-cut. Our system has made it very discouraging process for a common man. Long queues, documentation, complicated procedure, several visits and bad driving test system have forced people to adopt some kind of short-cut. 

There are three main steps to acquire a driving license. 

1. Learning License 

The first step is to obtain a learning license. It is easiest one as compared to other two. Get copy of you ID card and reach at DSP licensing office. Your patience will be tested here. So be mentally prepared to stand in queues for long time. If you are ‘Poond’ (flirt) by nature then you should be happy; longer queues, more will be the opportunity to stare at lady WardensJ. 

2. Documentation 

Few documents required including a medical certificate. From here you start spending money. If you look to get signed your medical certificate by an M.B.B.S doctor yourself then probably you will get tired of all this and cancel the program of getting a license. But there is an easy way of getting it signed. Spend Rs.100 and you will get your form signed within 5 minutes. 

3. Driving Test 

This is the most difficult phase for those who are looking to get license through procedural ways. Here your knowledge about signals and driving skills will be tested. Don’t think you can pass this stage without any reference or spending some money. It seems that licensing staff aims at failing maximum people so that they come through some agent next time. This fills their pockets as well. If you have hired any agent then no worries you will get your license even if you are fail. Otherwise you will keep going for test after each 42 days. 

Don’t drive fast!
