In the UAE, some students are frustrated with driving schools, saying they fail students on purpose to make more money. Maha, an Emirati, failed her driving test nine times at one school but passed on her first try at another school. Bilal, from Lebanon, had a similar experience. Despite these stories, UAE driving schools say they are not doing this.

Sameer Agha from Galadari Motor Driving Centre says this belief is wrong. He explains that they focus on how well students are learning and not on a set timeline. Wajahat Noor from Emirates Driving Institute agrees, saying students often fail because they need more practice or get nervous during tests.

Driving schools in the UAE try to be open and fair. They give regular progress reports and feedback to make sure students know how they are doing. This helps clear up the idea that schools are failing students on purpose.

To get a driving license in the UAE, students must complete 40 hours of driving lessons and pass several tests. These include a written test, a parking test, and an on-road driving test. The goal is to ensure everyone drives safely.
