From April 1, the rules for passing the driver's license exam at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate will change. Anna Kannoeva, head of the traffic dispute resolution practice at the Steps Law Company, told the Prime agency about this.

The number of allowable penalty points during driving practice will increase from 5 to 7. The exercise “turning in a confined space” can now be performed in a seven-meter corridor, and not in a five-meter one. If a student fails three attempts, subsequent attempts are possible only after six months, but no later than nine months.
