Training quality

What do RTSD statistical data stand for, and what difference do they have? A lower percentage means more chances that the student will have to invest extra money in repeated attempts at passing the exams, e. g., B-category theoretical exam – EUR 12.63, driving exam – EUR 38.52.

Theoretical training

The mean statistical indicator of the entire sector in this period is 73%. As is obvious, indicators of Einsteins Driving School are high, yet, in case of studying there, the student will have a larger chance to spend additional EUR 12.63 for a repeated theoretical exam.

Practical training – driving

The practical training (driving) success level of the driving school "Einsteins Autoskola" for licence category B is at 33%, whereas for driving school "Presto Autoskola", the level is the same - 33%.

Client Service

By service we mean the level of service included in the price. The service significantly distinguishes one driving school from the other.

Unlike driving school "Einsteins Autoskola", "Presto Autoskola" offers the following:

  • Our customers can read the agreement online before concluding it;
  • The contract can be concluded remotely (distance contract), without the need to appear at a branch of the school;
  • All driving school services can be paid for in full on the website; 
  • Free change of driving instructors during practical training – our students are able to get a driving license faster and cheaper;
  • In the "Presto" profile, our students have the possibility to easily review the times of theory and practical classes;
  • Electronic document circulation (record keeping) – faster achievement of results;
  • Total training cost calculator on each page of the training category;
  • Articles on the website and videos on the Youtube channel to supplement the theoretical and practical training of all categories;
  • Video assistance for each nuance of the training and the service offered by the driving school;
  • Continuation of training continuity (in case of absence in attendance, changes in place of residence) throughout entire Latvia;
  • The largest network of driver medical commissions in Latvia;

Campaigns

Einsteins Driving School offers continuous campaign price for theoretical road traffic regulation training (just like driving schools "Gross" and "Mustangs"), but this discount comes with a commitment and liabilities. You can read more about the tricks of driving school promotions and coupons here.

In contrast, Presto Driving School, as a socially responsible school, does not offer promotions at the expense of costs and student safety.

Analysis of Contract

The total cost of the driving school training is a significant investment, so it is important to read the contract carefully and, if necessary, show it to a lawyer, to make sure that it does not hide various risks and additional liabilities (hidden costs).

The contract of "Presto" describes the training process in detail, leaving no room for hidden costs. Our students can get acquainted with the contract of "Presto Autoskola" here. Validity term of the agreement is 1 year.

Client feedback

A small number of authorized reviews can be viewed on the webpage of driving school "Einsteins Autoskola". Facebook reviews of the driving school can be viewed here.

In contrast, "Presto" has the largest repository of authorized reviews in Latvia; they can be sorted by instructors, lecturers and the driving school. No website of a Latvian driving school has as many authorized (true) reviews as here.

Complaints

The complaints portal sudzibas.lv is a popular, but sometimes biased source. The reader should evaluate the entire context – nature of the complaint, the driving school's response, and whether the case is resolved or unresolved. It should also be noted that there is a correlation between the size of the driving school, the number of customers served and the overall number of complaints.
