The final step must be taken during 2 years from the day you received the first driving license. Winter driving consists of 2 parts: theory and practice. The theory part consists of 6 lessons – each one 45 min; practice part – 8 lessons (2 lessons of driving in city conditions and 6 lessons for the practice performance on the special ground).
Practice driving on the special ground can be performed either in a school car or in your own one.
If a course of winter driving is not taken during 2 years, you will not be able to exchange your first driving license for a permanent driving license.
