Description

For the issuance of the traffic pedagogy seminar permit (as a partial measure of the driving aptitude seminar), a driving instructor must, among other things, participate in an induction course that includes a four-day traffic pedagogy basic course, a four-day program-specific course, job shadowing, and independent implementation of the traffic pedagogy partial measure.

The management of these courses requires recognition by the government of the Upper Palatinate.

The driving aptitude seminar in the sense of § 4a StVG can be attended voluntarily by holders of a driving license in order to improve their traffic behavior and thus to effect a point deduction (driving aptitude evaluation system). It consists of a traffic educational and a traffic psychological submeasure.

If a driving instructor wishes to conduct the traffic pedagogical submeasure of the driving aptitude seminar, the seminar permit is required.
