I am looking for any recent information on driving schools on Samui.

I have found some information but it is very dated

Where to find a driving school or..?

Right.

I sent my manager to this lady some years ago - not sure if it is still valid.

 

 

As driving lessons are now compulsory for Thais to obtain a license, you might also try asking at the Land Transport office at Lipa Noi

There is one just a bit down the Ring Road after Maenam Post Office, same sign, a low yellow sign outside. Google Street View link here...????

Interesting.

 

My manager had the lessons and also had to take the test. (She failed the first one on parking.)

 

At the time I was heartened with her feedback from the Land Transport office.

 

One old guy who was also taking the test asked her for the answers. She said 'No - do them yourself'. He could not read - failed!

 

Also a policeman turned up with his son and asked for a license. The tester said to sit him down and she would proceed with the test. The policeman 'insisted' on just having the license. He was kicked out and the son was told to come back the next day - alone!

 

Progress thought I.

There's one close to the police box on Chaweng ringroad. 

At entrance towards wat Sawangarrom School. 

 

DRIVING SCHOOL ! # ? * Like to learn how to drive?

This is Thailand. What are you talking about ?

Saw one last week in Na Muang. It is on the road between the PTT and Wat Samret

Hello,

 

You may go to Soi Mod Yim, in Bo Put district, if my memory serves me right. There's a K-bank somewhere near it. In case you're from Chaweng, it will be a good variant.

Or you can also check the cars and transportation in Thailand in the expat community driving schools (simply choose your location from the list).
