to have a Swedish driver's license

I think I wrote  in my blog before about rules on how to get Swedish  driver's license. I ask forgiveness if I repeat again,but on my way home suddenly it comes in my mind. This topic,specially when I saw this volvo car in  front of us who have "övningskör" Swedish sign for practise driving.

Sweden is the country where you could find the most difficult way to get driver's license.It's not so easy,as I could compare in my home country. At 16 years old you can start practise drive,but you need to under go siminar. If you practice drive with your father or mother(which of course have a license)  they need to be with you during the siminar. If you go to driving school,it cost you money because you pay per hour here.

After all the training,and you're ready to take written test(which you pay separately). Through passing the written test is a MUST otherwise you cannot proceed with the driving test(you pay another one). 2 months after if you did not passed the driving test,then you need to go back to the basic. Meaning written test and driving (another cost to pay).

Expensive right!!I am not exactly sure,but I heard from my husband that here we have so many traffic signs to be memorize. I tell you guys lot of them failed,not only immigrants even Swedish young adults. Take 2,or take 3 some did it 4 or 5 times. If your immigrants here then you have driver's license from home. It does'nt matter,you may show to the National Road Administration that you can drive according to their way of driving.  
green sign practise driving with family member. driving school have their red (practise drive)sign.
