in b'lore, the RTO guy will sit next to you, & tell you to go & take a "U" in traffic (that is). obiviously he'll be watching how smooth you go (without jerk:))), hand signalling (for takin "U")...

In Chennai its easier, you dont hav to write the test to get LLr & the final Test to get license takes place in RTO's campus itself.

ya its india...but ppl like you r only spoiling it....can't u get thru it with a test rather going 4 a bribe...
and what i feel is that for a 2-w u need to make a 8 and 4 LMV u need to drive a H.....:rolleyes:

and don't teach bad lessons to other ppl......somethings can be done w/t bribes also...even i got it done w/t ne bribe to neone.....

i think i touched you here. i am sorry if i told the condition of our country to my fellow conutry men.
i got my DL by standing in Q writing the exam and driving too, without paying anyone any extra money for it.
And i am sorry if i hurt you by saying that.

in Germany my friend tells me that it costs them 500 Euros to get a DL, and there once you have it, it stays until you are completly blind or dead.
there you have to go through sims too.

and yes its little better in bangalore.
But i hope you know that RTO is one of the most currupted organizations in india.
