hello sevenbells and welcome to ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ

ok, what do u do for a living? coz theres a supposed restriction on drivers licenses to people, the minimum requirement is a salary of above 400KD unless you are of a certain profession omitted from this rule; doctors, engineers, lawyers, accountants, pharmacists etc.

you submit your papers etc to get the drivers ed card in Jabriya, right next to Champions gym.

being a salmiya resident, you will take the test at the muroor in south surra, which is on the sixth ring road, next to the equestrian club.

it is prefered to take a lesson or two in a Nissan Sunny drivers ed car, pick up any number off any car u see, or look through the advertisement papers for their numbers. they charge about 5KD per lesson, and they pick u up at your house and drop you off there. theres a training ground in mishref, altho it would be better to ask the driver to take u to the training ground on the sixth ring road, its open on fridays and there are no people inside. so u can go and simulate ur exam there.

if ur confident, and can drive well, do not worry about wasta. i know people without wasta who passed on the first try, and those with wasta who tried 5 times before getting it. its not about the vitamin W.

best of luck :)
