Driving License Part 2 ?

Question

This the Part 2 of series of obtaining driving license in KSA. The series will end when I get my driving license. ; ) LOL.

Anyway, so I went today to Dallah Driving School. Got my home country driving license translators - attached it with photos, company letter, iqama copy, passport and visa copy. Made a little file.

Did a Eye test there, then went to the license checking counter, he stamped the file, then went to another section, he directed me to the trial place. Did my trial, (Go front turn left, reverse and park.)

Then went to the payment counter, Payed 100 riyals got a receipt, they kept the file with my home country license. The receipt says come back on Saturday, 6 - 9 in the morning. I don't know what it say.

What do I do from here !! So confused. Anyway, I studied all the material on the rt.gov.sa web site, procedures, guidelines, traffic signals etc..

Is this a normal procedure ?

You should have asked for your home country license back.  They should have made a copy.  Be sure to take it when you go back in on Saturday morning.  Never leave originals with anyone.  Always give them copies.  Things get lost and stolen here.  Good luck.

i think at this point they will give you a course (it could be 1 day if u got an "A" or 3 weeks if you didn't know how to drive). but based on what you said, looks like you got an A. after those 3 hours of the course, they will give you a test consisting of 2 parts, one part is to actually drive the car, and the second part is to answer them the correct traffic sign they point to. if you pass both, you get your license in 2 days, if you pass the driving and not the street signs, you will have to come back and test only the street sign part. if you fail the driving part you won't even do the street signs, they give you a course to take and then test again.

good luck.

p.s make sure you have bought insurance when you're about to receive your license, otherwise they won't give you your license.

yeah it is here in riyadh. basically when they asked you to come back on Sat. it means they'll continue the process & an instructor will give you a drive test just to see if you can drive.

if all goes well, you can get your license at the same day with no worries.  otherwise if you don't, they'll ask you to join the school for at least a week from Sat. 

Good luck!
