Nevertheless, the introduction of license points did not make people happy. Instead, a team of carriers offers a compulsory training and verification course. According to these professionals, learning to drive well in all situations is the only condition for less dangerous road traffic.
Also, with the new highway code, all driver’s license applicants will be required to attend driving school.
