And how long did it take to get it?
>tfw had to pay ~€1800 even with average practice drives and passing the test on the first run
>>14421423
$15 for a learners for six months, and $15 dollars for the license. No fee paper and practical test.
I don't even remember, did I even have to pay?
I took the permit test, sat on it for about 6 months. Then got my Driver's License by going up to the DMV and taking it there.
I'm sure I'm overpaying for insurance, compared to a european. Maybe not so much since my car is a 5.4L, but. You know. Yeah, probably didn't pay anything.
20$ for my learners, 100$ for a 5 year subscription to a drivers licence
1000€, my courses ended up spread out a bit across a couple of months and I had to retake the test.

>too expensive for burgerland, too cheap for central yurop
where?
>>14421455
Germany the better part of a decade ago, I think it's 7 years now.
Like $25 for the test, another $20 for the license. All at 16.
>>14421466
Holy fuck, that was a fucking Schnäppsche.
Or was it somewhere in the Bavarian no-where? I heard it's quite cheap there.
>>14421478
East.
>>14421483
Ah.
Maybe I move there. People are fucking based over there, too.

retard much?
>>14421756
Says the idiot that doesn't even know who he's responding to
>>14421423
45 dollars.
About 350$
and I always thought murrikans getting the license almost for free was just a joke
$2050
>>14422570
>>14421423
>>14422579
It was free through school.
I did have to pay a $40 registration fee though.
$32 for the license. It's good for eight years.
I think in NY it was 35 for the learners, 20 for a safety class and the test was free. When I renewed my license I got the "enhanced" license to go between America and Canada for 70$
$700 dollar bribe
I payed around $40 for mine. Having lived in Germany and knowing how expensive and hard it is to get a license there, I felt happy until I started driving here.
Nobody fucking knows how to drive here, honestly the government should mandate classes. It's made worse by the fact that American roads are much wider and easier to navigate, there's no excuse for this.
I've met a few decent drivers, but it's far from regular.
>>14422563
I always thought eurofags getting assraped in license fees was a joke.
>>14423898
It's real alright. Lots of driving lessons involved, which is where most of the cost comes from.
I think 200 for the class I took at 15, got my license for 35 dollars almost exactly 6 months later
2250€
>>14424442
Europeans really hate themselves. All vehicles are 1.5% times more expensive, gas is more expensive, licenses and insurance is more expensive and you're importing in millions of muslims. It's like the goal of Europe is to ride the bus with sand people.
>>14424855
they're just too used to get fucked over over and over again
>>14421423
Paid Nothing.
Passed the written test and driver's test same day.
Both were easy considering that they give a license to anyone in hamburger land.
Drove a 2006 Infinity G35 Sedan for my license.
Missed one point because I didn't signal to go around a parked car in a suburban area(who actually does this)
Watched some dumb blonde attempt to parallel park for ten minutes straight while nearly bashing the guard pole behind her.
They still passed her anyhow.
>>14422579
It's about the same in Denmark
>>14424442
This, then you have like 300€ to buy and upkeep a car unless you drive your parents car, oh wait you move away to study... Realistically as a normal student you can own a car at like 25yo. Earlier is for blue collar workers who just work from teens. And it's tradition that every 18yo goes to driving school though him/her may not even drive his own car but like until 25yo and finished with school. That money could be spent better.
Driving schools are a fucking cartel.
And don't even get me started about the almost 50% car tax (every option like air conditioning, etc you buy is also taxed separately) and fuel prices...

>had 25 lessons at 40 euros an hour.
>Theoratical test was 40 euros
>practical test was 200 euros, which I failed twice for being a sperg so 3x 200 euros
so 1640 euros in total
About a 350$ Ren min bi bribe, at a Richmond, ICBC branch
Portugal, 700€, passed both written and driving tests first try.

Sayonara pay check, savings and everything else.
About 30 US dollars
Feels good man
>>14421423
1200 euros combined for car and motorbike, passed both on the first run and only took the required practice drives.
>>14423898
It's not a fee, it's payment for schooling. Because in Europe getting a license is actually connected to learning to drive, not just to turning 16.
>>14421756

about 1200€ in Germany, 10 years ago.

>smarter

you will find that the lower the iq, the more children they have.
>less overcrowded
of course, because there's no reason to stay if you want to make decent money
>lower wages
might have something to do with higher educated people moving to the west because they won't find a well-payed job in the east.
>>14428165
Enjoy your 1000€ a month single person apartment AND TURKS, faggot.
about 470$ in poland, had to retake the practical test once because apparently I drove too close to a standing car
>Passed theory test around 2 years ago
>Didn't take actual driving test
>theory test runs out in 4 months
I need to learn or just commit to being a bus wanker
like 15 to take the test or something to get my learners permit
upgrading to the lisence was free...either that or a really small amount of money
>>14428079
failed 5 times?
350 USD for mandatory lessons as a minor.
>>14428179
Thanks, I do have quite a nice apartment for less than 1000€ a month though and there are no turks around here either. I'm guessing there are no turks were you live either, which is quite a good reason to complain about them and vote for NPD.
$0.
My parents paid for it :^)
>>14421423
Like 18 dollars
>>14428241
I'm not gonna wait for the brown hordes to arrive here and ruin everything before starting to complain, you moron. Dresden has got the right idea because you can observe in the west and in Berlin what kinda crap shitskins will get your society into.
>all these Eurofags paying 3 thousand fuckin dollars for a damn drivers license
My sides are gone. I think I only paid $15 total for permit and license. Feels so damn good being American
>>14428764
I don't like the fact I had to pay an arm and a leg to get a license here in Finland.
But neither am I comfortable with the fact that Americans let 16-year olds get on the road for 15 dollaridoos.

What does it matter how much it costs? That's just the state ripping you a new bunghole. It should be based on skill level, i.e are you ready to be on the road
>>14421423
$150 because i took it as a summer class to get my license early, the license itself was free but the class was expensive as shit
>>14428801
>euro government

>>14428783
Who cares about 16 years old driving on the road in the US. Your frozen ass is never coming here.
>>14428730
Are you scared that someone without German skills or any working experience in Germany might take your job away? Then you should maybe think about whether you're the right person for that job in the first place. What crap have you gotten into because of immigrants?
Also this: >>14428800
>>14428801
Perhaps I was unclear.
At least 2000€ gives me lessons in theory and practice, and thus less idiots on the road. But it's expensive as fuck, because driving schools behave like cartels here when it comes to pricing, not to mention bullshit bureaucratic charges like paying 50€ for the actual license card.
This means there's no 16 year old kids texting behind the wheel of an automatic. Yes, skill should be the deciding factor, but I can't understand why you're proud of letting hazardous people drive. There's pros and cons to this shit. Our con is cost, yours is over easy license acquiring.
>>14428843
Don't know why you're assuming I've never been or are going to be there.
>>14421423
Original drivers license application in california is $45, at which point they give you 1 year to complete the written test and the driving test.
Both tests let you retake it 3 times, but the driving test forces you to wait a few weeks between retrys, and they're all by appointment.
You don't have to make appointments to take the written test tho.
I hear they do it on an automated kiosk now.

Well if you don't like our laws don't come here. Just stay in your european caliphate.

>3000 Euros.
what the FUCK
In New York, the fee varies by age. It's as much as $90 for a sixteen year old to get a permit (non-truck/motorcycle) but those 21 or older pay $73-$77.
Then you have to take either driver's ed (hundreds of dollars) or a five hour pre-licensing course before getting your license (about $50).
Then you apply for a drivers license. This costs $10, and includes two road tests. If you fail more than twice, you have to pay $10 for another two road tests (again, non-commercial drivers license).
If you do all that, you'll get a driver's license that is valid either until your twenty first birthday, or eight years after the date of issue. New York gives you a super shitty interim license that's a piece of barcode with typewriter style letters and a barcode on it until your real one comes in the mail with photos, holograms, yaddayadda.
tl;dr the cost for me was $90 for my learner's permit, $50 for a pre-licensing course, and $10 to apply for a driver's license = $150 USD. Insurance costs far far more (think $3K for a sedan for six months at age sixteen in new york).
>>14435255 here
Oh, and new york is just generally shitty on auto insurance rates. Not as bad as parts of canada from what I hear, but still shitty.
I pay $600/mo as a single unmarried white guy who is 25 years old, no accidents, no traffic violations, with $1,000 deductibles on a newer non-luxury non-sport sedan.
>>14435264
>$600/mo
Meant $600/6 months ($100/mo).
Apparently new york makes it super easy to claim whiplash after an accident and sue for $50k-$150K, which leads to insurers making ridiculous rates for liability. Liability is 85% of my premium.
Sage to avoid a triple bump.
>>14423641
>I think in NY it was 35 for the learners, 20 for a safety class and the test was free.
How long ago was that? It's a hundred bucks just for the learner's test now.
Fuck Jew York.
Driving ED was given free in Highschool. Passed my permit test on the first try. Couldn't have been more than $20. In my state you need to take a 7 day, 2 hours per day course where you drive on public roads. $200
>Only went one day because muh experience
Only $220, whats up with Europe?
>>14435657
>Only $220, whats up with Europe?
Price gouging people since the advent of effective taxation.
>>14421423
$42
>>14435657
Lots of driving lessons required, driving the cost up like mad.
On the other hand, this results in less morons behind the wheel.
so costs in the thousands for the license is a yurop exclusive?
>>14436899
Yes.
