“Multiple failures are the rule rather than the exception’: record failure rates for driving licenses. 42 percent of driving students failed the theory test last year - more than ever before.

The Union recently made proposals to make driving licenses cheaper by up to 1,000 euros. The quality of driving training must be improved through modern learning methods and targeted test preparation, and mobility education in schools should also be expanded, says the TÜV Association. The number of those trying to pass using illegal methods is also increasing.
