Getting a Professional Driver's License These Days?

**kotiko** · August 10th, 2015 12:29 PM

Hey Guys!

Can anyone of you guys share your recent experience in acquiring a Professional Driver's License from LTO recently?

Planning to upgrade mine from a Non-Pro to Pro just in case I consider to be an Uber partner in the near future. Is it true sa LTO East Ave lang pwede kumuha ng Pro license? I'd like to avoid dealing with a fixer, I think I won't have a problem taking the written test anyway. Do they still do the practical driving tests? How long does the whole process take? Any additional tips?

Thanks!

nope..... all LTO offices, specially the bigger ones not the satellites and the malls can issue you a PDL.
it all matters on you passing the exams.

Plano ka sana na kumuha ng pro license kaso color blind ako. posible ba na bumagsak ako sa medical at hindi maka kuha ng pro license dahil sa pagiging color blind?

Sa tingin ko mag eexam ka ulit ng writen. Kasi non pro 1 to 40 lang. Sa pro ata 1 to 60..
.
Pag dating naman sa actual. I think kung hindi ka mag add ng number ng type ng e ddrive e wala ka na actual exam. Pero kung sample 1 lang asa license mo. Then papalagyan mo ng 2. E eexam mo ang number 2 or 4wheels.
.
Handa ka ng 1200 to 2000 para sa buong proccess kung sa east ave ka. Kung 7:30am ka dadating at walang problem computer nila mga 1 to 3pm. Tapos ka na.

Just a quick update. Got my pro license today sa East Ave kahit na color blind pa yung naka lagay sa med cert ko. Written exam lang yung akin wala ng test drive ganun siguro pag change of classification ang transaction at walang additional code. May id na din pala sa east ave I was expecting na papel lang ang makukuha ko.

but why would you want to have a professional driver's license? hindi ba, mas malaki ang multa kapag pro, compared to non-pro?

Hindi ko alam ito ha.
Ilang percent ang different sir?
Iba ang rate ng non pro sa pro. Hmm.
