Driving Test Procedure in Telangana:

As is the case across the country, even in Telangana, a Motor Vehicle Inspector overlooks all the driving tests that are conducted by the RTO for giving a permanent driving licence. The applicant should have his own vehicle to appear in the test. In case an applicant doesn't have a vehicle, he can use the vehicle of the driving school.

Test for Two-Wheeler & Three-Wheeler:

Those who have applied for a licence for a two-wheeler have to ride the vehicle within a boundary and make ‘8’ figure without hitting the poles embedded at the corners. The inspector will also test how smoothly you can change the gears and control the vehicle in the corners. In case the applicant is successful in satisfying the inspector, he is given an approval for a road test where he or she should ride properly for some distance on a public road.

Test for Four Wheeler:

Driving test for four-wheeler is mostly similar in nature to that of two or three-wheeler. However, in this case, the applicant is required to drive along the marked 'H' without touching the columns. Once the applicant has satisfied the inspected with his driving skills, he or she is required to drive properly for some distance on a public road. In case a candidate fails in either of the tests, a re-test is conducted within 7 days and a nominal fee is charged.
