    True. A1 for example requires their clients to have a Student's Permit for driving before allowing them to enroll.

    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:
    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

    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.

    get student permit and then if you have a relative that is willing to teach you its much better rather than going to driving school puro pera pera lang dyan i know a few people who went to that steps and ended up asking for assistance still with private drivers for further instruction ang laki ng difference its not that i have someting againts driving schools... but the price are high for a minimum amount of time to teach you all the stuff you need to know about driving. just my 2 cent

    AFAIK prof driver's license holder ang kasama ng student permit holder para wala ng satsat ang apprehending officer/s.
