What to Do to Get a German Driving License and Turkish Workbook...

                      If it has not been 3 years since you moved to Germany and you already have a valid Turkish license, the following steps can be followed;

the following documents are first prepared;

- Translation of your Turkish driver's license from ADAC and the original driver's license
- an eye test required for a driver's license exam
- photocopy of the passaport
– Certified residence certificate from your first city of residence in Germany
- 8 hourly “first aid course” certificate.
- proof that you are enrolled in a driving course (if you do not take courses)

these documents will be delivered either to the driver's course or to the governorate (landratsamt) to which the driver's course personally belongs. According to your work intensity, the district governor sends a letter from 3-8 weeks to your driver's license, indicating that your driver's license is indeed a valid driver's license and you can enter the exams without taking courses. the driving course tells you the situation and tells you that you can take the written examination first when you are ready.

After you finish the 60 questions of 30 questions in your hand, you call the course and tell the date you want to take the exam, and if there is a place in the exam center, they register for the exam. The exams are held in the centers of TÜV - German Technical Supervisory Board. You have the chance to make a maximum of 110 error points out of 10 in the exam. The questions are in the order of importance, 2-3-4-5 points, and under each question, the number of points the question corresponds to is written. There is only one chance of making 10 error points and failing the exam, and that is to get two 5-point questions wrong. The 2-point questions are the most important questions, and generally easy questions, so don't panic. They give the right to take this exam at most 5 times, if you cannot take it in 3 times, the whole process of getting a license starts from the beginning.

If you pass the written exam, there is one last obstacle left for you. practical exam. My advice before taking this exam is, if you have driven in big cities in Turkey, especially in Istanbul, forget all your habits and do not act like a young man by saying "I will do it", take 1-2 driving lessons (about 45 minutes). Learn the area where you will take the exam, learn the difficulties, and especially learn to stop on the line in front of the "stop" sign and learn to apply the emergency brake clutch when traveling at 40 km. The practical exam is completed within a period of 1-45 minutes. If you do not stop when someone is approaching the pedestrian crossing, your exam may end in the first minute with the command "Pull aside please". Likewise, if you do not overtake a cyclist from 1 m away, you may hear the command "at an available place on the right in the future."

things you should never forget in the practical exam;

* check the flow of the traffic before signaling - signaling the passing of the traffic - seeing whether you come on foot or bike without returning and looking at the blind spot over your shoulder - giving way to our opposite pedestrian or bicycle brothers in the street

* signal to the right at the navel outlet

* Always stop in front of the stop sign 4 wheels and if the road is available again to continue

* control the traffic at the rear without stopping in the red light and staying in the green light

* do not forget to pass right to left in non-transit routes, slow down to check traffic on the right at every street exit

* signal before 300m before departing from the highway and begin to enter the right line when the dashed lines start

* do not horn

* do not fall into traffic without leaving at least 2 lane empty when leaving main road
