In Montluçon, driving schools are waiting for the green light to resume their activity from May 11

In Montluçon, Eric Crescent, who runs the driving school of the same name, and Djian Hamid, manager of C’permis, say they are ready to welcome their students again from May 11. They remain attentive to the recommendations that the prefecture could still transmit. The latter is also expected by the two leaders on the date for the resumption of driving license exams.

“We will implement everything that flows from health rules”

“The wearing of the mask will be compulsory in the premises and vehicles,” says the owner of the Crescent driving school. According to him, it is the only solution to protect everyone. He redesigned his code rooms to leave a minimum distance of 1.20 meters between each student. And for the theoretical exam? “It will be done individually,” he says.

Impossible to install a plexiglass wall

In the car, the instructors will wear a visor in addition to the mask: “Naturally, we will implement everything that follows from health rules”, insists the manager who notes the impossibility of installing a Plexiglas wall between the student and the monitor in the vehicle: “How could we intervene with this?” There is no other choice, for car instructors, than to have your face covered all day. “

At C’permis, the driving school run by Djian Hamid, there too “sanitary arrangements have been made for the reception of all people. It is certainly a new expense for us, but life is priceless. ” We will also not be able to monitor whether everyone is respecting barrier gestures and sanitary rules. “

Continue supporting students

Thirty driver’s license passages were canceled during confinement for the Crescent driving school: “We will again have to prepare students who were ready but who did not drive for two months. We will have to manage according to the places which will be allocated to us by the prefecture ”.

He does not expect exams to take place before the beginning of June: “I think it will take a month of transition for the full resumption of activity. In addition, we will arrive around the summer and the inspectors will take vacations. There will be a traffic jam for places, “he predicts.

Contact has been maintained

In addition to the free provision of online training series for the theoretical examination of the highway code so that they progress or maintain their skills, Djian Hamid took the time to contact the students to inform them of this. that she knew: “They were very touched by these steps,” she noted.

Some of his students are in embarrassing situations: “There are, for example, students who have to go elsewhere to continue their studies but who have not yet finished their apprenticeship. We will have to find solutions for them. ”
