    Sorry this is my first post and I am only allowed to start a thread here.

    I am a student permit holder but have finished taking driving lessons. I want to practice more by driving to work but sadly, yung mga kakilala kong may lisensiya eh malayo location sakin and won't be able to guide me. Ayoko irisk mahuli na walang non pro license at kasama, pero I also feel kelangan ko pa ng practice para maging confident sa pag apply for non pro.

    Naisip ko sana magcarpool with a non pro holder. Route is Tikling to Ayala via C5 Kalayaan, night shift, we leave at around 5:30 to 6pm.

    Yep, I need to be careful so I will take safety precautions naman.

    Better to reconsider your plan. Not safe for you, your passenegers and other motorists.

    Get yourself a non pro license. Mag carpool tapos student license holder? Anong klase yan?

    It's not that I don't know how to drive, but I acknowledge that I need more practice and I know I should not drive alone.

    Hindi nmn bawal ang learner driver eh. Baka nga mas maingat pa than some. Bawal siya kung walang kasamang lisensiyado.

    Usually student drivers learn by driving more, but with guidance dapat.

    If I have ofcmates (na may dl) na pareho ko ng ruta sila isasabay ko. Kaso like I said, wala nga.

    But I acknowledge na it's not the best idea dahil sa safety. Thanks for your feedback

    enroll in driving school kung kailangan pa nang practice..

    1 month lang ang student diba tapos pwede nang convert sa non-pro?

    If that's my intention I wouldn't have been honest na new driver ako and just offered a ride in Wunder.

    There are ppl who resort to carpooling dahil ayaw nila magcommute. If they are okay with accompanying a new driver in exchange for a ride, fine. Pag hindi, fine as well.

    It's risky on many levels. But I'm not experimenting on lives here.

    Yes sir.

    I actually practice sa amin and I'm in between confident to drive to Makati but not confident to be alone (part of it is yung takot dahil bawal). I feel if I have a dad or brother or a friend with me (na lisensyado at marunong), I'm okay. And that's legal.

    But yeah, maybe it's not the best idea.

    I will maybe practice more to be confident to take the non pro exam.

    You are still going to ferry people in exchange for money. For me, if cant drive alone, then you are not fit to act as a transporter. Hope you get my idea and not take this personally.

    Ask a relative who openly accepts the risks involved to get you up to speed.

    I accept that there are loopholes to this and though I get your point, I respectfully disagree with some of it.
    1. It's not about the money.
    2. Student drivers are not allowed to drive alone. The law encourages them to drive with a guide. It doesn't mean they're not fit to drive.

    just go and apply (and get) your driver's license already.
    you can practice legally afterward, even by your lonesome, with a license.

    besides, what are your carpool mates gonna do? be the proverbial backseat driver? keep a scorecard? grab the wheel from you a few seconds before you bump into a tree? applaud?
    i was a new driver once. and i remember, hating that person in the car who was always giving me advice...
    heh heh.

    I think gusto nya lang kasama yun may license. Ang kaso complete stranger. Tapos syempre pag nahuli HIT sa kasama nya, tama ba?

    Ask yourself if that's what carpooling people do. You should have stopped at the 2nd sentence. Your sarcasm is unnecessary.

    1. Even if not for money. End point is, you are still going to accept money in exchange.
    2. As mentioned by shadow, why not get a non pro instead? You forgot to mention as well that the guide must be knowledgable and not just any guide.
    Physically fit to drive is easy (eyesight check, vehicle check, etc). Mentally fit to drive is another thing. (You mentioned that you are not that confident yet).

    So i suggest, get a relative to help you out instead of some random strangers since pag naaccident (wag naman sana) kayo,di mo na babayaran relative mo. Pag nahuli kayo, may mag aassist sayo.

    Hope that you get that you are the driver and hence responsible for the lives of the people inside your car.

    Yup, I think so. If may valid violation hit sa license holder. But I didn't realize that until now. The only thing I was avoiding to violate was driving alone. Wala sa balak ko na magviolate at ipahamak yung ksama ko. I think na establish ko na na hindi ko intention magviolate.

    Maybe accompany the student permit holder in exchange for a ride because she's not allowed to drive alone?

    my advice:
    get your license already.
    ask a relative to do ride with you for a few days, once you get your license. give relative something for his trouble.
    that is all you need.
    after that, you can drive alone.

    i wouldn't want a total stranger to sit beside me, as i drive.

    you will never learn how to drive alone, if you don't do it.

    Yup. I admit I didn't realize that. The only violation I was trying to avoid was driving alone.
