Q & As

Q1:	What will be the evidence of attendance and completion of a driving improvement course?

A1:	The driving improvement school will issue either an attendance certificate or a course certificate to a course participant after he/she has attended and completed a driving improvement course. An attendance certificate will be issued if a course participant has fully attended the Course and completed all assignments and the course-end written assessment required thereof. A course certificate will be issued to a course participant if he/she has fully attended the Course and completed all assignments and the course-end written assessment required thereof with satisfactory performance. Please note that, a participant who is late or absent for more than 15 minutes will be considered as not having completed the Course.

Q2:	What are the course duration and course fee?

A2:	A driving improvement course is divided into two sessions with total duration of eight hours. The maximum fee to be charged by the proprietor of a driving improvement school for a driving improvement course shall be HK$1,000; and the maximum fee for the issue of an attendance certificate or a course certificate shall be HK$30. The exact fee may however vary among schools. Interest persons may contact the Schools for the details.

Q3:	Can I switch to another school for session 2 of the Course after completion of session 1 at a school?



A3:	No. You can only attend and complete the Course at a school. The Course and the course-end written assessment should be completed within 2 months from the date of the first session of the Course.




Q4:	Is there any time frame for those ordered by the court to attend and complete a driving improvement course? Can one apply for an extension?

A4:	Those receiving court orders should, at their own costs, attend and complete a driving improvement course according to the period ordered by the court (generally within 3 months after the date on which the court makes the order but may vary for cases involving disqualification of driving licence and / or imprisonment or detention). If a person is not able to comply with the order, he/she may make an application for extension in writing to the court or magistrate which made the order. If it is considered that he is not able to comply with the order with reasonable excuse, the judge or magistrate may extend the period of 3 months for such period as considered appropriate. Please note that a person is liable on conviction to a fine of $10,000 and to imprisonment for 2 months if he fails to comply with the order without reasonable excuse.

Q5:	A person has just committed a traffic offence which may render the total driving-offence points 15 points or above. Would 3 points be deducted if he/she completes a driving improvement course prior to incurring the driving-offence points from the aforesaid traffic offence?

A5:	Yes. 3 points would be deducted if, on the day of completion of the Course, the person has not yet incurred 15 points or above and has not been deducted points from the total number of points incurred within the past 2 years.

Q6:	After completing the driving improvement course as required, can I get back my driving licence immediately from the Transport Department?

A6:	After you have completed the Course, the school needs to consolidate the course-end written assessment result and submit it together with the attendance record to Transport Department for further processing. As such, if you are disqualified from holding or obtaining a driving licence and ordered to attend the Course, upon the expiry of your disqualification and completion of the Course, you may get back your driving licence at Driving-Offence Points Office at least 5 working days after the school issues the Driving Improvement Course Certificate to you. If your driving licence has already expired after the completion of your disqualification period, or if you are required to attend the Course due to accumulation of 10 or more points during a period of 2 years, you may issue, re-issue or renew your driving licence at any of the Licensing Offices of this Department at least 5 working days after the school issues the Driving Improvement Course Certificate to you.

Q7:	Do I need to bring and show the Driving Improvement Course Certificate to the Driving-Offence Points Office or Licensing Office for getting back my driving licence?

A7:	For easier verification of your records, you are suggested to bring along the Driving Improvement Course Certificate for collection of the driving licence.

Q8:	What are the differences between the new driving improvement course and the previous one?

Q8:	The new Course has made reference to the teaching techniques of similar overseas programs and was developed based on the latest trends of local traffic accidents and the needs in Hong Kong. The new Course also provides more scenario-based learning to help participants to reflect on their driving habits, and to master good driving techniques and enhance their awareness of road safety.

Q9:	Can I participate in the previous driving improvement course conducted by the designated driving improvement schools?

Q9:	Starting from 1 December 2021, the new Course has replaced the previous Course. You can only participate in the new Course conducted by the designated driving improvement schools.

Q10:	How is the new driving improvement course conducted? Can I only take the course-end written assessment without course attendance?

A10:	No. An instructor of the new Course will deliver driving knowledge and skills of the course to participants through classroom learning. Interactive learning and discussions are encouraged among participants and they will form part of the assessment criteria. 3 driving-offence points will only be deducted from the total number of points you have incurred upon the full attendance of the Course and completion of all assignments and the course-end written assessment required thereof with satisfactory performance. Hence, you cannot only take the course-end written assessment without course attendance.

Q11:	What is the content of the course-end written assessment?

A11:	The course-end written assessment will take place at the last 30 minutes of the Course. A participant has to answer 20 multiple-choice questions in the course-end written assessment. The passing mark is 12 correct answers (i.e. 60%). A participant shall attend and complete the Course in order to participate in the course-end written assessment.
