Nerves, lack of preparation and strict guidelines are said to be the cause for the low pass rate among driver’s licences in the Western Cape.
The Western Cape’s pass rate is 35.13% while applicants in Gauteng have been the most successful with a pass rate of 45.48%. The poorest pass rate is in the Free state which is 31.23%.
“Poor training and lack of preparation is the main reasons for the low pass rate in the province,” says spokesman for Traffic Services in the province, Searle Johannes
“The test has rigid guidelines against which the application is assessed. These guidelines are provided by the National Department of Transport and are applicable nationally,” says Johannes
Johannes added that applicants were often in the driver’s seat of their test vehicle for the first time when doing the test.
