The program “Sabah Al-Yawm” on Al Jadeed TV hosted the Secretary of the Syndicate of Driving Schools in Lebanon, Mr. Nizar Ayoub, in an interview with journalist Mariette Younes. During the interview, he discussed the new driving license system in Lebanon, highlighting the key amendments, the mechanism of its implementation, and what awaits drivers in the coming phase.
The Driving License Examination Center in the Nabatieh Governorate was launched and marked an exceptional achievement, as it was established in line with the conditions set out in the Traffic Law for obtaining a driving license, including the requirement to conduct driving tests under the supervision of experts and monitors. Consequently, at a time when the Nabatieh region and the South were suffering from devastating Israeli aggression, the launch of the Nabatieh Examination Center represented a notable and significant step.
The President of the Driving Schools Syndicate in Lebanon, Mr. Hussein Haidar, accompanied by his Vice President Hassan Al-Mousawi and the Syndicate’s Secretary-General Nizar Ayoub, inspected the Driving License Examination Center in the Nabatieh Governorate, located at the southern entrance of the town of Arab Salim, where he was briefed by monitors and trainers on the progress of the examinations being conducted there.
Haidar said following the tour: “The Driving Schools Syndicate has worked to equip the driving license examination center, with all its facilities, at its own expense. The aim is to ensure proper and sound examinations, enable correct learning, and promote knowledge of the Traffic Law and road safety in both its theoretical and practical aspects. Today, examinations are being conducted here in a civilized and serious manner, as in any country in the world, under the supervision of a team delegated by the Ministry of Interior and Municipalities.”
Haidar extended his thanks to the Minister of Interior, Brigadier General Ahmad Al-Hajjar, and to the Head of the Vehicle and Mechanisms Registration Authority, Brigadier General Nazih Qobrosli, for their close follow-up and strong support reflected in the outstanding and transparent performance witnessed at vehicle registration departments, especially at the central authority (Nafaa), where priority is given to facilitating citizens’ affairs and adopting automation at all stages of transaction processing—a tremendous effort. He also thanked them for their continuous support in completing the training center in the Nabatieh Governorate.
As part of the rounds and visits carried out by the President of the Driving Schools Syndicate in Lebanon, Mr. Hussein Haidar, to a number of ministries concerned with syndicate affairs, a delegation from the syndicate headed by him—accompanied by Vice President Mr. Hassan Al-Mousawi and Secretary-General Mr. Nizar Ayoub—visited His Excellency the Minister of Labor, Dr. Mohammad Haidar.
During the meeting, the President of the Syndicate presented to the Minister the syndicate’s achievements and its organizational steps in combating corruption and putting it on the right track, emphasizing its commitment to developing its work in a way that serves the interests of trainers and members.
The delegation also discussed with the Minister ways of cooperation and the issue of the syndicate’s affiliation with the National Social Security Fund, in a manner that contributes to enhancing the social and professional security of its members.
