driving lesson o license?

[russpogi]

usually driving schools will arrange your student permit, then you will be accompanied by their "teachers" with professional driver's license, then after that you're on your way to a PRO or NON PRO driver's license...

Actually, you really don't need the "assistance" of them driving school. Just bring all the documents needed to secure a Student's Permit at the nearest LTO District Office.

For the TS's convenience, here's the requirements:

Documents Required

1. Duly accomplished Application for Driver's License

2. Proof of identity

• Original Birth Certificate with photocopy
• NSO authenticated Birth Certificate with Official Receipt and photocopy
• Original valid Passport with photocopy
• A joint affidavit of two (2) disinterested persons who know the applicant and who can attest to the applicant's identity, accompanied by non-availability of record issued by the Local Civil Registry Office or NSO

3. Any legal or government issued document to prove his age and identity (SSS ID, PhilHealth ID, GSIS ID, TIN ID, Pag-ibig ID, Office ID)

4. Taxpayer's Identification Number (TIN)

Additional Requirements for Minor Applicants (16-18 yrs. old)

• Letter of Parental/Guardian Consent duly notarized

and AFAIK, student driver's should be accompanied by a professional licensed driver...we were apprehended by police way back when i was learning to drive and that's what we were told...just my 2cents

No. As per the LTO's website, a licensed person should accompany the student driver with a Student's Permit. There is no distinction between a Professional and a Non-Professional Driver's License, as long as it's valid (and has the restriction code for the vehicle operated, e.g. 1 - Motorcycle; 2 - cars/vans, etc). Report the apprehending officer should they try to "trick" you. There is not even a violation on their tickets that says that.
