motor vehicle here I come

Driver's license learner permit acquired! Total cost:

Application fee: 25€
Driving lessons: 875€
ADHD tax: 152€

I'm going through the obligatory little quizzes and informational videos about traffic safety and they've been machine translated without proofreading and then dubbed into English with an AI that speeds up or slows down its talking speed sometimes multiple times per sentence to ensure that it takes exactly the same amount of time in English as in Finnish (which means a lot of surreally slow talking that sounds like a tape got stuck in the player and might catch fire soon).

Holy crap.

Wishing you all the best.

Also I forget what happens next -- do you get the license or do you have to have a driving test in a car with an officer or some such?

[cimorene]

There's a theory test, driving lessons, then a road driving test of one hour.

tnx

The ADHD tax is absolute balls, but I'm glad you're at the point now where you can get on with the practical part.

Yeah, tbh this part feels easier, even though I still have to actually learn how to use a clutch...
