Only one in five Ukrainians passes a practical driving test
Obtaining a driver's license for the first time remains one of the most popular services at the Ministry of Internal Affairs service centers. In 2024, 204 driver's licenses were issued, which means that more than 008 people became new drivers, receiving a license valid for two years.
The Main Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs also emphasizes the procedure for obtaining a driver's license for the first time. It is important to note that in order to pass the theoretical exam, it is not necessary to take a course at a driving school. In 2024, 107 people successfully passed the theoretical exam after independent preparation, which is more than 394% of the total number of exams.
During 2024, almost 689 thousand practical exams were conducted at service centers, with a pass rate of 22%. This indicates that although the number of people wishing to obtain a driver's license is increasing, the success rate in passing practical exams remains low.
