cooldude2010, really annoucing a illegal practice here it may not be true, may be next time he did well and got licence, some of the driving school instructors are taking money by promising to help to get licence and arranging another test, if luckly the student pass he/she will inform it is because of my recomentation and will take money if fail they will say sorry, the Police on duty changed.! I dont think any Qatari Policeman will take money?!
