How will you use a weapon in war if you don't know how to operate it? you might end up killing yourself, or worse, your comrades too.

Ganito po ang dapat gawin:

1. Get a Student License - for you to become a legal student driver

2. Learn how to drive - with a professional driver as a teacher

3. After a few months, get a Certified Driver's License na. - But you still have to be guided by a professional driver until you get used to the techniques of driving.

Nangyari to samin. Tinigil kami ng MMDA and ticket na daw kasi non-pro yung license ko, student sa sister ko. So I told him the law did not specify so i don't think I violated it. He argued, I argued (pero hindi galit).Then mamaya ok na daw. Be informed so that you'll have grounds to defend yourself.

student permit ka muna. you can ask the driving school, they may help you get it. they can also brief you on how to apply/get your license later on.

Actually, it's a Student's Permit.

You may learn how to drive with a licensed driver, meaning regardless if the one teaching you has a Professional or Non-Professional Driver's License, for as long as he has one.

However, it's always better to start learning to drive in a Driving School then follow-up your driving lessons by practicing with a licensed driver.

To get a Non-Professional Driver's License, you need to wait for one month. For Professional Driver's License, six months.

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...

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

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:

• 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)

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.
