Once an application has been received to open a driving testing centre, the inspectorate of driving licence testing centres will evaluate the testing centre concerned and recommend an appropriate grading. The inspectorate will also conduct at least one inspection per year to monitor the standards applied at the centre and advise any driving licence testing centre on any improvement and maintenance of testing facilities and procedures that are necessary.
Currently, only Municipalities with traffic departments are permitted to operate driving licence testing centres.

FAQs :
What Are the Different Kinds of Traffic Fines?
You can get one of two kinds of fines, regardless of the traffic violation :
** A Section 56 notice is given to you by a traffic officer, usually for a moving violation. It has a court date on it.
** A Section 341 notice is sent to a motorist by post for violations caught on traffic camera or for traffic tickets issued in absence of the motorists (for example, for an expired licence disk).
It does not have a court date on it but is a first notice before summons. The Traffic Department will issue a second notice before summons before actually issuing the summons.
How Long Do I Have to To Pay A Traffic Fine?
** A Section 56 notice means you have about 30 days to pay before your case goes to court.
** A Section 341 notice is a notice before summons, not a summons itself. You usually get two notices before the summons is issued, after which you have about another 30 days to pay (or contest your fine in writing) before your case goes to court.
** In total, you have approximately three months to pay a Section 341 ticket.
** Please note that the exact length of time you have to pay a ticket varies from municipality to municipality. Check your ticket for the payment due date.
