In certain instances, you may need to complete additional driving lessons to prepare for the test. You can also enroll in an driving school that will teach you. The exam can be repeated as many times as you like however, it will cost EUR30 per session. + +You can also take the test as an independent candidate. However, this option is only available to candidates who have a driver's license from their home country that is issued in English. In addition, you must provide a medical certificate or a document certifying your handicap, known as a "reconnaissance de qualite de travailleur handicape". You can take the test at one of the special sessions (examen ETG spécifique) for non-French-speaking applicants. + +You must score at least 20 points to pass the practical driving test. There is no possibility of elimination mistakes. The examiner won't tell you immediately if you passed or failed, but you can examine your results online on the securite Routiere website within 48 hours of passing the test with your number for the NEPH. After you've confirmed your pass or fail you can download a digital copy of the permit. The France Titres page for ordering your French driving license will allow you to buy your physical French license online. + +In France the new driving license is valid for five years. After that, you'll have renew it by submitting an application for a new licence with the prefecture. You'll need to bring along your old driving license, a passport photograph and a French address. You can also apply for an additional licence if you are looking to add a new category of vehicle or alter the name on your current driving licence. However you must have been in France for at least six months to be eligible. You must also have a valid health insurance policy which includes third-party coverage for automobiles. + +Exchange of foreign driver's licence + +If you're moving to France and have a driver's license from your home country, there are certain conditions that you must meet. You are able to exchange a licence only in the event of an agreement to reciprocate between France and your home country, and it's still valid. In other cases, you'll need to take a French driving test and be able to pass it. The process can take a year or two, but it seems to be moving more quickly now that the application is online. + +If your license is from a country that is a member of the EU or European Free Trade Association (EFTA - Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway) or If you have an British or Northern Irish license that was issued prior to 2013, you can use it in France. However you must purchase third-party liability car insurance before you are allowed to drive. These kinds of licenses are referred to as "permis de conduire français en ([licencefrancexpress.com](https://licencefrancexpress.com/)) de driving." They're the shape and size of a credit card and they include your personal details, and the vehicles you are allowed to drive. + +Additionally, you should not have any outstanding traffic convictions or fines on your license. You must also be over the legal age for driving in your country of origin. There are other requirements you must meet. For instance your licence should be issued prior to when you arrived to France.

The maximum number of points they can receive is twelve. Every time you commit an offense, you can either get an amount of money or have points removed from your licence. Based on the number of points you've got, your license could be suspended for a specified period of time. If you're planning to stay in France for a long period of time, you should take the time to learn to drive in France. + +Learning to drive in France + +You can enroll in a driving school or learn to drive on your own if you are moving to France. Whichever option you choose it will be a long process with serious hoops to jump through. The process for getting your driving license in France can take up to three months because of a shortage of driving examiners. However the actual test is very similar to the two-part theory exam and practical test that is offered in the UK. + +One of the first things you will need to pass is the "highway code" test, also known as 'le code' for short. This is a comprehensive test that should take at least a couple of months to be completed, so don't try to rush through it, or your French driver will probably take a swipe at you (not that we know from personal experiences). This stage involves learning the rules of the road and taking numerous'mock tests'. When you feel confident, you are able to take the real test. + +The next step is to complete a few hours of accompanied driving with a skilled driver. In France, this is called conduite supervisee and you must register with the prefecture in order to be able to pass. You must complete at minimum 20 hours before you are even permitted to take the practical test. + +Another aspect of accompanied driving is that you will be required to keep a record of all the journeys you take. This is intended to ensure that you're not just commuting to school and back every day (that would count for 3000 kilometres, but isn't going to get you anywhere!) The journey must be varied, meaning that driving in your village every day throughout the year may not be enough. If you commit a big offense like drinking or speeding, you'll face a fine and lose points from your French driver's licence. + +The left lane should only be used to pass cars and not for driving slowly. If you're on dual carriageways and driving slow in the left lane, you're likely to be pulled over by a French traffic policeman, so be prepared. + +Insurance + +You'll need a French B license if you intend to drive in France. This license allows drivers to drive vehicles up to 3.5 tons. It also enables you to drive vehicles with nine seats or less. The permit is valid for 15 years from the date of the issue. You may have to take a medical exam to renew your license based on your age or vehicle category. + +You will also require an insurance policy that covers third party liability for your vehicle. This policy will protect you in the event of an accident or theft. You must also keep your driving license along with insurance documents and vehicle registration documents at all times. In some instances you'll need to have your passport on you at all times. + +The process of purchasing and insuring your vehicle in France isn't easy but it doesn't have to be. In fact, it can be easy and painless, especially if you already have a driver's license from an EU or EFTA country. Certain states have reciprocal agreements which simplify the process. + +A French driving licence (permis de driving) is a legal document that contains your personal details, the type of vehicle you're allowed to drive, and the date of the issue and expiration date. In most places it is also used as a form of official identification. It's a pink plastic card that's about the size of a credit card. + +You must notify the authorities of your French permit immediately if it is lost or stolen. This can be done by visiting the ANTS website. You'll receive a temporary permit that's valid for two months. If you've committed a crime you'll be assessed an amount of money or be stripped of points from your license. The maximum number of points is twelve points. \ No newline at end of file
