From the Desk of Mydriverslicence Manager

Thank you South Africa for all your calls and comments that you have made to mydriverslicence.co.za

I just hope that the South African department of Transport will see this site and recognize the work that needs to be done in all our testing centres, licence and traffic centres.

But until then we will just have to keep up our part of the deal... Which I'm not sure what it is at the moment. Because many people have been calling me and telling that all they have been doing for the past year with the department is giving out money, but no good service at all.

I know they are only human and can only do so much, but we are also human, we can only tolerate so much.

My hope is that, I will be able to get my licence in peace and cooperation. And as a South African citizen I'm willing to take responsibility of my faults, hope that the department is also hoping for the same thing.

Until then keep South Africa safe on the roads and drive like your on the test, cautiously.

What to do when you have failed a drivers test more than twice?

There are certain words that any drivers licence applicant doesn't want to hear from an examiner like;

"Please get out of the car and follow me" or
"Sorry, did you see what you just did, please finish off and come to me" or
"Come and see your car at the back" or
"Whooo, stop thats a fail"
"Thats a fail"
"Come back next time, my friend"
"You have just rolled and stalled"
"The test is discontinued"

I have heard some of these words a couple of time and I can assure you, hearing them more than twice, it just discourages you.

We spent too much money on driving lessons and booking confirmation and usage of driving school cars. To the extend that when you hear these words, the whole booking process is repeated in mind and you feel like THAT'S IT"

Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it, when an examiner tells you that you have failed. You have failed! It doesn't even matter to them how many times you have done your drivers licence.

There are people who have passed on their first attempt, Good!
And there are those who have passed their drivers licence test on their eighth attempt.

But one thing you never do, is to give in to the game. Keep on trying, it might be worth!

Don't buy driving licence and do not bribe anyone to pass you. Maybe you might have passed on the 99 attempt.

South Africans speak out about the drivers licence crisis

The queue outside the damn place (Wadeville) was nearly out the freaking testing station.
I stood there for a whole day. The queue did not move at all.

"They are forcing people to drive without a licence, the cost involved to book every time is so high that it is nearly worth the risk getting a fine."South Africans talk bout the difficulties of getting a drivers license and other concerning matters, you can also tell us your story...

" The system indicates that you are booked for a
learners licence code 10 on Monday 7 May. It's a system error" I was then put through to a Supervisor who would assist me. After much explaining, he checked for me and said " Apologies, there are no dates in the JHB area.
