New training programs at driving schools have been approved

Earlier, on September 11, it was reported that the average tuition fee at Russian driving schools for the first seven months of 2025 increased by 20.2% compared to the same period last year.

On September 2, Tatiana Shutyleva, President of the Interregional Association of Driving Schools, told Izvestia that the separation of education and retraining in the new driving school programs approved by the Ministry of Education and Science will allow educational institutions to form groups of those who are going to open an additional category of rights faster.
