LAHORE: Great news for aspiring driving license seekers in Punjab! The Motor Vehicles Rules 1969 have undergone a significant change, especially regarding the driving test process, making it easier and more convenient.
In a recent announcement via Twitter, the Lahore traffic police revealed that the e-sign test, a vital component of the driving test, will now be conducted two weeks later than usual. However, passing the on-road test remains essential. Failing this test will require a 42-day waiting period before being allowed to retake both exams.
The on-road test is a standard procedure where candidates demonstrate their driving skills on a designated course. If unsuccessful, candidates must wait for 42 days before attempting the tests again. On the other hand, the e-sign test assesses theoretical knowledge and can be taken at the candidate’s convenience within the two-week window.
Successfully passing both tests will earn candidates their much-desired driver’s license.
This adjustment in the Motor Vehicle Rules is a positive step towards simplifying the licensing process for aspiring drivers in Punjab. It demonstrates a commitment to promoting road safety by ensuring that licensed drivers are competent and responsible.

People can renew their licenses through the online system. The candidates can renew their licenses for one, three, five, and ten years. Meanwhile, an international driving license will remain valid for three years. Applications for online driving license (E-license) can be processed through official website of DLIMS.
