Now go to
Room number 2 in the license office. The person on extreme left will do
Eye-sight test. The person on extreme right counter will check your forms,
stamp and send you to "License Check" counter. Here one more person
will put a stamp on your application and send you for "first try".
This trial place is behind the building where you are standing.
There will
be a car or more and person will be sitting inside. He will ask you to drive
the car a little ahead and then reverse a little. Don't worry it is just to
see whether you have ever touched the car or not. The person inside will make
his comments on your application.

Now come
back to room # 2 and deposit SR 100. He will take your file and ask you to
attend a 3 hour class. There will be a three hour class in which you will be
taught the basics and after that there will be a computer test. Attend the
class very carefully and also read all the things written on front and
backside of the chart they give you during the class.

The
questions that are going to be asked for the touch screen computer test, will
be mentioned during the class by the training instructor. After class they
will take you to a room where you will wait for the test to start.
There
would be 20 questions and you have to answer them in 30 minutes. If you make
any mistake in the first ten questions, then you are failed. In next 10
questions you have to give only five correct answers.
If you
clear the computer test then they will test your driving. Congratulations, if
you clear the test. By the way, it is very easy test. You just have to drive
the car for some meters or you might have to do some simple reverse etc. Cars
are of model "Cadillac Custom/Camry 2006". Cars are with gears; not
automatic.
