More and more\u00a0<\/span>Asian workers\u00a0who live in Romania are trying to obtain a Romanian driving license, either for personal or professional purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n This is also because, as of this year, the authorities are allowing the examinations for the necessary taxi or\u00a0<\/span>ride-sharing\u00a0<\/span>be held in English.<\/p>\n Kulwinderjit is from India and has a company here. Because he desperately needed a car, he went to driving school in Bucharest. In his home country, driving lessons are not compulsory.<\/p>\n Kulwinderjit Singh - Indian national<\/strong>: \"The first difference compared to India is that there the system is like in the UK, for example right-hand drive. In New Delhi or Mumbai, it's a disaster. If I can drive there, in my opinion I can drive in any country, in any city. In India, still, every year almost 150-200 thousand people die in traffic accidents. Most of them don't know traffic rules.\"<\/p>\n So far, 195 Asians have taken the taxi or ride-sharing license exam. 160 have passed and are already working. Many had to get their license here.<\/span><\/p>\n Costel Ban - car instructor<\/strong>: \"I had a learner from the Philippines who, even though he mastered the car, and in general those who have a license in their country master the car, feel the gauge, have control. He stopped without justification in traffic. Even if he had the right of way, if he saw a car coming from a yielding road, he braked. A little later he told me that, in fact, their rule is that the one who hits head-on is to blame.\"<\/p>\n Vlad Lubinschy - car instructor<\/strong>: \"The vast majority are India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, those who come here to work. A few who take it personally to go on vacation. They, so they can work, get a job faster.\"<\/p>\n Samir Anwar Imran - Pakistani national<\/strong>: \"When I came here, I needed a car. I also got my license and bought a car, I've been driving since 2008. And category C? Now I have the training. If I can get a job somewhere or have better offers, that's why I thought.\"<\/p>\n However, the number of foreigners in passenger transport is still low. Although they are needed in the labor market, it's too expensive for employers to bring them into the country.<\/p>\n Yosef Gavriel Peisakh - recruitment agency manager<\/strong>: \"This whole procedure takes 5-6-7 months, at least with the driving license exchange. During that period, the foreigner stays in our country. But basically, he cannot work on the same work permit.\"<\/p>\n According to the General Inspectorate for Immigration, there are over 120 000 foreign workers in Romania. Most come from Nepal, Sri Lanka and India.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" More and more Asian workers settled in Romania are trying to get a Romanian driving license, either for personal or professional purposes.
