Well, howdy there! You wanna get yourself a Eritrean driving license, huh? Let me tell ya, it ain’t like pickin’ apples off a tree, but it ain’t rocket science neither. It’s somethin’ you gotta work for, but don’t you worry none, I’ll tell ya what I know.
First off, you gotta understand, drivin’ ain’t just jumpin’ in a car and steppin’ on the gas. There’s rules, see? Just like everywhere else. In them cities over there, they say you can’t go zoomin’ around like a bat outta hell. They got speed limits, like 40 kilometers an hour, sometimes 50. And out on them big roads, what they call highways, maybe you can go a bit faster, like 100, but you still gotta watch yourself.
Now, about gettin’ that license… Seems like you gotta go find yourself one of them drivin’ schools. Yeah, a place where they teach you how to drive proper. They’ll show you the ropes, teach you the rules, and get you ready for the test. I reckon that’s the best way to go about it. They’re the ones who know all the ins and outs of gettin’ that license in your hand.

Some folks talk about this “International Driving Permit,” sounds fancy, huh? Well, if you already got a license from somewhere else, maybe you can use that to get one of these here permits. But if you ain’t got nothin’, then you gotta start from scratch. That means goin’ to that drivin’ school I was talkin’ about.
- Find a local driving school.
- Learn the Eritrean driving rules.
- Practice, practice, practice.
- Pass the driving test.
And speakin’ of rules, lemme tell ya some more. It ain’t just about how fast you can go. You gotta pay attention to the signs, the other cars, and them folks walkin’ on the road. They say you gotta be extra careful in them cities, what with all the people and cars buzzin’ around.
Now, I ain’t driven one of them tractors, but they got different licenses for that too, I hear. And for them little scooter things, the ones without pedals, they got rules for them too. Seems like there’s a license for everything these days! But you’re probably just wantin’ to drive a regular car, or maybe a van or a pickup, right? Well, that’s what most folks get – what they call a Class C license. It lets you drive most cars and trucks that ain’t too big. They say you can even carry up to 15 people with that license, though I can’t imagine why you’d want that many folks in your car at once!
Gettin’ that license, it ain’t just about drivin’ good, though. You gotta pay some money too. They got fees for the tests, and for the license itself. From what I hear, it’s gonna cost you some money to get a license from them Eritrean fellers, just like it does everywhere else, I reckon. And if you ain’t from around here, or if your country ain’t on their list, you might have to take a written test too. Just gotta show ‘em you know the rules, I guess.
So, to sum it all up, if you wanna get yourself a Eritrean driving license, you gotta find a drivin’ school, learn the rules, practice a whole bunch, and then pass that test. And don’t forget to bring some money, ‘cause nothin’ in this world is free, that’s for sure. It might take some time and effort, but if you stick with it, you’ll be cruisin’ down the road in no time. Just remember to be careful out there, and always follow the rules. Nobody wants to end up in a ditch, or worse.
And that’s about all I know about gettin’ a driver’s license in Eritrea. It ain’t easy, but it ain’t impossible neither. Just gotta put your mind to it, and you’ll get there. Now, you go on and get yourself that license. And drive safe!
Remember, safety first! Don’t be one of them crazy drivers who think the rules don’t apply to them. A car can be a dangerous thing if you ain’t careful. So take your time, learn the ropes, and always be aware of your surroundings. That’s the best advice I can give ya.
Good luck to ya! Hope you get that license soon!
