Driving Test Procedure in Rajasthan:

In Rajasthan, the driving license test is conducted in the presence of a Motor Vehicle Inspector. Regardless of whether the application for driving licence is made online or offline, you will need to visit the local RTO and give a test. One will need to have his own vehicle and it should be of the same class as the one for which the applicant has applied for a licence. In case you don’t own a vehicle, then you can get a motor vehicle from your driving school.

Test for Two-Wheeler & Three-Wheeler

The test for two-wheeler and three-wheeler is conducted near the RTO. The applicant has to ride the vehicle within a border and he or she may be required to make ‘Eight’ figure without touching the poles embedded at the corners. The applicant also needs to show proper gear change, vehicle control while speed shifts, bending corners or reversing, and making ‘figure of eight’ without the feet touching the ground. If the inspector finds that the applicant can do all the above, he gives approval for a road test, where the applicant must show correct riding skills for a certain distance.

Test for Four Wheeler:

Driving test for four-wheeler is largely similar to that of two or three-wheeler. In this case, the applicant will need to drive along the marked 'H' without touching the columns. After clearing the test, the driver is required to drive correctly on the road. The tests for two-, three-, and four-wheelers are conducted in accordance with the guidelines under Rule 15 of the Central Vehicle Motor Act (1989). In case the candidate fails in either of the tests, a re-test is conducted within 7 days, for which a nominal fee is charged.
