photo_seeker SG Hi All ! Just wondering, how long will I need to take the theory before I'm allowed to take Practical? And is it practical to get a driving licence at 18? Thinking of getting a licence and buy a OPC to drive my family around during weekends and to outings.
^spidee^ SG As long as you pass the basic theory test and the advanced theory test, you can start taking driving lessons. Give and take, about 3 months to get a license, but got to consider queueing for the practical test date too.
photo_seeker SG How much will these cost? BTW, I'm 17 now, going to be 18 next year. Is the rumour about 1989 born childs have to take licence at 21 ?
UandMe SG assume ur petrol only use $100/mth. An 18 year old who can pay $500 a mth and still survive is still rich!
^spidee^ SG The theory tests are quite cheap (less than $20 I think), driving lessons probably $20-$30 per lesson. Not sure about the driving test though. Anyone can clarify regarding the rumour?
photo_seeker SG Overall cost till I get licence will be roughly? Assuming I pass immediately. Looking for clarification with the rumours.
photo_seeker SG I will just cut down on gaming and save more. Currently, my side-line earns about $300 a month. Allowance is around $400. Think with some savings, should be able to survive?
tofushop193 SG come on…taking a licence isnt expensive…plus in singapore,getting a licence also helps u to find job faster
HolySniper SG cost of takin lessons.. my fren book alot at once n amounted to 1.6k including TP.. completed everythin in 1mth+ but waited abt 2plus mths for TP.. but he failed TP so nid to add in 300 to take revision n TP 2nd time.. another 2plus mth wait.. btw do u tink ur job can last u 10years? haf u consider that wat if u are jobless.. and i dun tink ur loan wil be approved at all.. you are stil young.. when u reach 18 den ask oso wun be late.. and there's no such thing as 21 den can learn driving.. can anyone stop that rumour? abt 2 more mths to my 18th bdae..
photo_seeker SG My parents probably terminately one investment account under me to buy so, shall see how first. Any suggestion?
^spidee^ SG For a car? Since you are buying it to ferry your family, a Toyota Vios might be suitable. Or perhaps a large hatchback like the Honda Jazz.
coffeeortea SG btw.. must u be 18 then can take the license? what if you have license from other countries? is it possible to convert ? or must still wait till 18?
^spidee^ SG I'm not so sure about the age limit, probably yea, must wait till 18 to convert. I'm going to convert mine soon, but I'm 20, so yea..
