Attention to all aspiring drivers in Punjab! Exciting developments are here to make your journey towards obtaining a driving license smoother and more convenient. The Motor Vehicles Rules 1969 have undergone a significant change, particularly in the driving test process.
In a recent tweet, Lahore traffic police announced a major update: the e-sign test, a crucial part of the driving test process, will now take place two weeks later. It’s important to note that passing the on-road test remains crucial, and failing it will result in a 42-day wait before retaking both tests.
The on-road test involves showcasing your driving skills on a designated course. In case of failure, take a deep breath and relax for 42 days. Meanwhile, the e-sign test assesses your theoretical knowledge conveniently within a two-week window. Pass both tests, and your driver’s license is yours!
This adjustment in the Motor Vehicle Rules is a positive step towards facilitating the licensing process for aspiring drivers in Punjab. It demonstrates a commitment to promoting road safety and ensuring that licensed drivers are proficient and responsible.
Online Registration for Added Convenience:
To further ease the process for the people, the traffic police have launched an online service. This groundbreaking decision aims to simplify and streamline the licensing process, considering the surge in the number of people applying for licenses in the region.
Renew Your Driving License Online:
Good news for current license holders! The online system allows people to renew their licenses for one, three, five, and ten years. International driving licenses will remain valid for three years. Candidates can easily download their local and international e-licenses, eliminating the need for physical driving tests.
This move not only enhances accessibility but also encourages more responsible driving practices. Stay tuned for a hassle-free and efficient driving license application process in Punjab!
