I don't want to feel weird, but you don't need to pay ridiculous amount to learn driving. Observation skill is enough and a day to two day guide from a close friend or family member is enough, the rest depend on the calmness, courage, reflection, patience and confidence of the learner.
Have you driven a car before? No wonder we have accidents happening on our roads and one keeps on wondering if a human or some other creature from the farm drove the vehicle.

My friend knowing how to move car is what those teaching you are going to start with. Apart from that every thing else are technical/theoretical as aspect of it .

When going to get driver license, moving the car which is practical is the major thing they also check .
The major reason why people go for driving lesson is for that learners permit certificate.

If you like sit and learn all the driving signs on the roads without knowing how to move the car let me see how you’ll pass the driving test . So I put it to you that moving the car is 80% in your driving journey.
Moving the car is just the starting point, not 80% of driving. Knowing how to steer means little if you don’t understand right of way, hazard awareness, and emergency handling. Passing a driving test proves basic competence, not necessarily safe driving. The goal isn’t just to move the car; it’s to get everyone home safely.”

Dem still dey use money learn driving?
If someone wants to learn how to drive a car but does not own one or have access to one, their only option is to raise funds and enroll in a driving school.

How about obtaining a driver's license afterwards? Wouldn't you be cross examined first?
In Nigeria that people are bribing their way to get the license? Na bribe Dem dey collect for there. Which examination?

Please do anyone know how much driving Schools charge in Abuja? I would like to learn how to drive for fun.
Last time I wanted to learn in Lagos, the schools were charging ridiculous amount as if they suspect I was going to buy a car soon.
What part of Abuja are you? Central Area, Mararaba axis, Kubwa, Airport Road or where exactly?

If you understand all those signs without knowing how to move a car when you go to practical will they give you drivers license? If you like know all the road signs on earth without knowing how to move the object you don’t know how to drive period .

I repeat moving that object very well is Infact 90% .

Knowing how to move a car doesn’t automatically mean you know how to drive safely. The fact that most people learned from friends doesn’t make professional training useless. Experience and proper training go hand in hand. Just because the majority do it doesn’t mean it’s the best way.”
You just dey quote every response here. You get driving school? The way you dey hammer on this professional training fit make person suspect you ooo

The cost of living in Nigeria is literally lower compared to some African countries, I base in Ghana and just last week I paid equivalent of #350,000 for driving school in East legon Accra
Stop quoting shit here. Quote it in cedí and calculate the minimum wage in Ghana and what it can afford. Then calculate minimum wage in Nigeria and what it can afford as well. Stop comparing other currencies to Naira. You compare and contrast no follow

Driving is more than moving a car. Professional training teaches road safety, traffic rules, and emergency handling. Saving money is good, but safety comes first.
yes your opinion is valid. For someone like me and many other we no go driving school we learnt with video game then we went ahead to read high way codes and rules of driving. I would have really felt cheated if I spent money to learn how to drive.

I have been driving a manual car since 2006 and have been driving on the fast lane/inter state since 2009. I never went to driving school.

Are you saying your people don't have accidents at all? So no car driven by your so called "perfect" tribes men has ever been involved in n an accident.

You are either a kid or someone who lie like the devil

Do you even know how to drive?
How do you engage gear one? What's the purpose of gear one?

Well, minimum wage in Ghana is less than 600 cedis meaning a little less that our own 70k. So complete every other calculations by yourself and answer yourself.



NB: Always do your research before coming to post sh*t online
