The classic way to get a driver's license is to study at a driving school. However, this is not the only option possible. You can pass on the license if you have learned to drive on your own. Officially, this is referred to as an external surrender.

Step 1
The difference between passing the exam in the traffic police externally differs from the procedure at the end of the driving school only in that the number of departments where this can be done is limited. Their coordinates, work schedule and which one serves your registration address can be found in your regional traffic police department. If this information is not on his website, contact the reference service, the phone number of which should be present there.
Step 2
In the necessary traffic police department, you must provide the same set of documents as the graduates of the driving school, with the exception of a certificate of graduation from this educational institution: a passport, confirmation of registration at the place of stay, if available (in Moscow, the registration period must be at least six months, in other regions may have other requirements), a completed application (the form can be found on the website of the regional traffic police department), medical certificate, receipts and receipts for payment of the state duty (the forms are also available for download on the website of the regional traffic police department, you can find out the details and amount of the state duty in the divisions Traffic police and branches of Sberbank).
Step 3
In the appropriate field of the application, indicate that you could not attend classes at the driving school due to the work schedule, high employment or other reason. This does not play a special role, but something needs to be written.
Step 4
If you are applying for your place of residence, you will have the exam in about a month. At the place of stay, the wait can take twice as long. In this case, the traffic police must check whether you received your rights and whether they were not deprived of them at the place of residence.
Step 5
The exam follows a standard scenario. First, the theoretical part: 20 minutes to answer 20 questions on your knowledge of the rules of the road. Then a demonstration of driving skills on the court (3 out of 5 possible exercises at the discretion of the examiners) and in the city. You can learn the rules and practice the tests yourself. Usually, a couple of weeks are enough for this, provided that daily classes are for two hours. The tests are available, for example, on the website of the UGIBDD GUVD of Moscow.
It is best to learn to drive under the guidance of a normal instructor in a parallel pedal car or a very experienced driver.
