Practical test
Practical driver training must be carried out with a view to obtaining a category DE-D1E driving licence.
You have the choice between practical driver training at an accredited driving school and driver training undertaken privately, covered by a provisional licence, which you can obtain from your local council on presentation of your valid category D-D1 driving licence.
An appointment for the category D practical test can be made via our customer service at 087/57.20.30 or by going to the examination centre of your choice beforehand with a valid identity document. Prepayment is no longer required for this test.
