If you successfully pass the required tests at the institute, you will be awarded a certificate. This certificate will serve as the basis for obtaining your driving license.

3. Minimum requirements for training facilities: Driving training institutes must have a minimum of one acre of land available for training facilities for two-wheelers, three-wheelers and light motor vehicles. Training centers for medium and heavy passenger goods vehicles or trailers require a minimum of two acres of land.

4. Qualified Instructors: Instructors at these institutes must meet specific qualifications, which include at least a Class 12 diploma, a minimum of five years of driving experience and a strong understanding of traffic rules.

5. Comprehensive Training: The training course will cover various aspects of driving. It includes 21 hours of instruction on basic roads, rural roads, highways, city streets, parking, reversing, driving on hilly terrain, etc. Apart from this, the 8-hour training will include topics like road safety, understanding the causes of accidents. Providing first aid and fuel management while driving.
