Pakistan is one of the countries in which getting a driving license is difficult.
Driving test is being carried out and they also check and inquire the knowledge of traffic rules and regulations from the candidate. Therefore, people are in search of those centers from where they can learn about driving, because of this there is a huge demand of driving schools. In Pakistan, particularly in Lahore, there are around fifty driving schools for the total population of 11.13 million. Since this is very unbalanced situation. There may be two or less than two instructors available in most of the driving schools with probably one or two cars. Therefore, learning about driving is difficult. In driving schools, instructor teaches the learner about how to drive a car. But there are some problems for learners and instructors too. Some of the driving schools taught the student about driving, but they don’t give the knowledge of traffic rules and regulations properly Therefore, it is necessary to have prior knowledge of traffic rules before test. Another problem is that, most the driving schools doesn’t have their own space to teach the learners about driving properly.

Therefore, they went out to teach the driving. Therefore, it increases the probability of physical damages, as the learner went straight on the road, which can increase the fear of the learner, which is also dangerous for other people and commuters on the road. Therefore, chances of the road accidents increase. Because, the learners are not ready to face such events instantly. Another drawback of car driving school is cost. As already explained, when they went out with the learn on the road that increase the probability of damages, therefore, the repair cost also increases, and the cost of fuel and maintenance of the car puts burden on learner as well as instructor.
