Okay, I know a lot of guys will tell me that I'm stupid but... heyz I couldn't help it.
I would like to get a Japanese Driving Licence... the problems are that my Japanese is not very pera pera yet, plus I do not have a driver licence at all.

So, my questions are:

What level of Japanese do I need to get a Driver licence.
How much is it going to cost me to get lessons, and how many do I need on an average?
Does anyone knows a nice driving school in Kobe?


I know that it's too early to get a licence now, but I was thinking that getting one next year would be nice.
Any advice, etc would be great!

Here's a start. You might need your wife to help with the Japanese, though...

Take a week off to go ride around with Mike Cash. By the end of that week , you could probably open a driving school for others.

You have no driving lisence at all from your home country? Yikes...All I can say is good luck! Get at least $3000, and I hope your 18. :-)

Otherwise, get an international driver's lisence using your Dutch Lisence.

cost me 300,000 yen and my Japanese was not very good at the time, I had only been in Japan for 6 months. The guys at the school explained the questions for me the best they could, but there is really no way to fail when you go to a school. All they do is tell you to be carefull in the areas that you answered inadequately. Cheers
