MORE than 1,500 student permits were processed by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) in the City Hall Atrium on April 11, 2022.
LTO Administrative Aide VI Jean Alnic Collamar said that after the Theoretical Driving Course (TDC) at the Bohol Wisdom School, the student permits are now processed and are released. After the TDC completers presented the needed certifications such as birth, medical and TDC completion, a provisionary student permit is released on-site.
According to Memorandum Circular 2019-2176 implemented by the LTO, student applicants requesting a driver’s license are required to go through a 15-hour theoretical driving course under certified instructors. The course is divided into three sessions and will cover everything from traffic regulations to LTO mandated special laws. It must be completed within two years from the day an applicant started the course. The curriculum is divided into classroom/ theoretical instructions and actual driving sessions. (Jeanette Busano)
