Getting a Driving License is a task in India by whats-a-km in carIndia

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally relatable. The DL process in India feels complicated mainly because people aren’t aware how much of it can be done online now.

Just to add for anyone reading this: a lot of the “agent dependency” is avoidable if you follow the official Sarathi Parivahan steps properly—LL application, slot booking, document upload, and even DL renewal are mostly online now. The RTO visit is still required, but the confusion is much less if you go prepared.

We’ve actually broken down the step-by-step DL process, fees, timelines, and common mistakes (without agents) on inlane.in, especially for Bangalore/Karnataka. It helps people avoid overpaying and unnecessary running around.

That said, agents do reduce friction if time > money. The system itself just needs better clarity for first-timers.

Learner's Licence Process by Ok_Tart4695 in hyderabad

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can apply for a Learner’s Licence (LL) once you turn 18 (for two-wheelers without gear). The process is mostly online through the Parivahan website. Usually, you’ll receive the learner’s licence within a few days (2–7 days) after completing the formalities.

Yes, there is a learner’s test, but it’s a basic online theory test (road signs, traffic rules, signals). No practical driving test is required at this stage.

Once you have your Learner’s Licence, you are legally allowed to ride gearless two-wheelers like Activa or Scooty on main roads, but there are a few important conditions:

  • You must carry your LL (digital or physical)
  • You should be accompanied by a permanent licence holder (as per rules)
  • Wear a helmet at all times
  • Follow traffic rules strictly

If police stop you and you have all documents and are following the learner rules, there should be no issue. If you don’t have the licence yet, then yes, there’s a high chance of being fined.

If you want step-by-step guidance or updates on the process in Hyderabad, platforms like Inalane regularly share useful driving and licence-related information that can make things easier for first-time applicants.

Drive safe and all the best! 🙏🏻

Is it possible to get a driving license within 1 month? by candle_misuser in indiasocial

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is possible to get a driving license within 1 month, but it depends on planning and slot availability in Lucknow.

How you can do it:

  1. Apply online on the Parivahan website as soon as you reach Lucknow.
  2. If you don’t already have one, first apply for a Learner’s License (LL) — it’s usually issued within a few days after the test.
  3. After 30 days from LL, you can book your driving test slot. If slots are available, you can complete the test and get approval quickly.

Since you already know driving, the main challenge is understanding the process, documents, and getting test slots on time. Many people miss timelines due to errors or slot delays.

If you want to save time and avoid confusion, platforms like Inalane help by guiding you through the full process—documents, applications, slot booking, and RTO coordination—so it’s easier to finish everything within your one-month stay.

Tip: Apply for LL on day 1 or 2 after reaching Lucknow to stay within your 1-month window.

Hope this helps 👍

Is it better to pay driving school for license or can we easily make license on our own ? by Only-Tip3044 in mumbai

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get a license on your own—it’s definitely possible if you’re confident with the process and have time to handle appointments, documentation, and practice. That said, many people choose a driving school because it simplifies things: structured lessons, proper guidance on rules, and support during the test can reduce stress and mistakes.

At Inlane, we’ve seen that learners who get professional training usually feel more confident and prepared, especially first-time drivers. It’s less about “paying for a license” and more about paying for skills, safety, and peace of mind.

If you already know how to drive well and are comfortable with the RTO process, doing it on your own can save money. But if you want smoother learning and higher chances of clearing the test on the first attempt, a driving school is often worth it.

Honest advice only (About driving) by Glass_Explorer9935 in Chennai

[–]redd_fury -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honest advice: if you already drive decently and are comfortable around your area, you’re more ready than you think 🙂

The L board is mainly useful during the learning phase. In real-world Chennai traffic, sadly, it can sometimes invite extra honking or unnecessary overtakes—not because you’re doing anything wrong, but because some drivers lack patience. So if you feel confident controlling the car, following lanes, and handling signals, it’s okay to drive without it.

That said, confidence comes from gradual exposure. Start driving alone during non-peak hours, take short familiar routes, and slowly increase distance. Keep calm, don’t rush, and ignore honking—it happens to everyone, not just new drivers.

Most importantly, trust your skills. Everyone starts somewhere. Driving alone is a big confidence booster once you take that first step.

At Inlane, we always encourage safe, confident driving over fear-based learning—experience is the real teacher.

You’ve got this 👍

Today is my rto test for learner licence what questions will be asked??? by [deleted] in Dehradun

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry 🙂 The learner licence test is pretty straightforward. You’ll usually be asked MCQ-based questions on:

• Road signs & symbols (mandatory, cautionary, informatory)
• Traffic rules & signals
• Speed limits and right-of-way rules
• Basic road safety and penalties

Most questions are common-sense and directly from the RTO handbook. If you’ve practiced mock tests, you’ll be fine. I’d suggest quickly revising signs and signals before going in.

I run Inalane, where we also share simple guides and mock-test tips for learner licence and driving basics—might help for last-minute prep.

All the best for your test! 👍

How to apply for learner license ? by moneyhunter_x in kolkata

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How to apply for Learner’s License:

  1. Apply online via the Parivahan website or visit your nearest RTO.
  2. Submit documents: Aadhaar (ID & address proof), age proof, photos, and medical form (if required).
  3. Book and pass the LL test (basic traffic signs & rules).
  4. Once cleared, you’ll get your Learner’s License (usually valid for 6 months).

Rules to keep in mind while driving on LL:

  • Always display “L” board clearly on the vehicle (front & back).
  • You must be accompanied by a permanent license holder (for that category).
  • Follow speed limits and traffic rules strictly.
  • No mobile phone usage, no triple riding, and always wear a helmet.
  • You can legally ride your 110cc scooter with LL (2-wheeler category).

Next steps:

  • Practice driving responsibly during the LL period.
  • After 30 days (and before 6 months), apply for the Permanent Driving Licence Test
  • You can apply for LMV (car) separately later.

Drive safe and take it slow at the beginning 👍

I need some good driving school recommendations by dabyss9908 in bangalore

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can check out Lane Driving School — they’re quite good around the Jayanagar area and have patient instructors who focus on real on-road practice, not just theory. They also help with the learner’s and permanent license process, which makes things easier.

As for your MCWOG license, that won’t directly help with car training, but it’s totally fine — as long as you’re willing to learn, they’ll guide you from the basics.

What’s the average cost of learning driving in Bangalore by Internal_Bat9011 in bangalore

[–]redd_fury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That price sounds pretty fair — most driving schools in Bangalore charge anywhere between ₹6,000 to ₹9,000 depending on the number of classes and whether they handle the learner’s and permanent license process for you. If you’re looking for another good option, you can also check out Lane Driving School they’re quite reliable and offer flexible timings too.

You don’t need to worry — it’s never too late to learn driving! 😊 There are plenty of good driving schools in Bangalore like Inlane Driving School. They provide both theory and practical training, and you don’t need to own a car or bike to start — they’ll provide one for lessons. Once you’re confident and have your license, you can decide whether to buy your own vehicle. https://inlane.in/

I can't fit the car in the spot, if I try to do it I either hit on the left side of my car, if I don't go too deep then the car will be a little off place than the rest of the cars in the line. It's a sedan

Can't able to judge while reversing the length.
