Getting a driver's license can be a tortuous process in many cases, especially for applicants to driving schools in large cities such as Madrid or Barcelona. In larger cities, these test drivers will encounter more traffic, routes of all possible complexities and almost any traffic sign.
Driving school teachers ask not to let your guard down at any time and be attentive to the road. In the case of Barcelona, from the Requena Driving School they expose one of the most frequent errors: not following a sign that forces us to turn right or left. It is a mistake made by 9 out of 10 students who take exams with them.
After that there is no turning back, because the would-be driver finds a prohibited sign that prevents him from continuing the march. A serious mistake, which can cost you a fail in the driving license practical test.
The professionals of the Requena Driving School warn that this is one of the most frequent failures in cities like Barcelona. And to raise awareness among the students, they wanted to record it and upload it to their social networks. “90% fall into this situation. Take note and be the 10% who do it well”, they explain on their Instagram account.
If the user has passed the theoretical and practical exam, he must not forget that the rules are somewhat different for novice drivers. According to the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT), one of the most common mistakes as soon as you obtain your driving license is not wearing the L (V-13) sign on your car for the first year.
Nor should we forget that these users have 8 points, which will not increase to 12 if they do not reach the second year without any fine. Also, for the first two years, new drivers have a stricter maximum alcohol level: 0.15 instead of 0.25 mg/l.
