I am going for the EGZAMIN PRAWO JAZDY.I learn that the instructor can be difficult sometimes or always waiting for someone to make a mistake and finish the exam.

Does anyone know how to bribe the instructor on this exam?
I understand that it's against the law but it also possible most especially in this Xmas season when everybody is looking for a way to make the festive season more enjoyable.

Any idea will be appreciated.

Thx in advance.

Sure, the standard practice in Poland is to have an envelope in your hands when you shake hands with him/her at the beginning. A normal bribe is around 1000zl for a guaranteed pass irrespective of exam performance.

Your name will be called out, you approach them , shake hands and transfer the envelope into their hands as you do so. Make sure that you firmly press the envelope into his hands, and a big smile will ensure that he/she understands the intent.

I thought like 200 will do.............lol.
But what about if he/she refuses the envelope?
Hope it won't be a cause for alarm.

That's why you pass the envelope during the handshake outside the car - the camera isn't running yet ;)

How reassuring for the British public knowing that Poles can bribe their way to a pass!! Three Poles were killed on our roads in one accident this week, I wonder if they had passed a test??

You can bribe anyone anywhere, everyman has his price.

Passing your test in Poland is very difficult, I think delphiandomine: was mocking the poster.

Indeed. It used to be an issue years and years ago from what I understand, but these days, the test centres are so strictly controlled that it would be impossible to bribe an instructor on the day. I wouldn't even consider it viable - everything is recorded, and even if someone managed to bribe the examiner through someone else in the test centre, if the anti corruption people viewed the tape and saw that your drive wasn't consistent with the test standards, you'd be in a hell of a lot of trouble.

Do not bribe just to get a driver's license. Thousands of poles have done so and now look at how many car accidents they are causing. So if you would prefer to keep your life, help protect other lives, and keep a clean soul, then do not bribe. It may be bad now but it will be a lot better in the long run!

If you see the driving style of the average Warsaw driver, I would be very tempted to doubt this.

That comes from a lack of enforcement more than anything else.

For what it's worth, I found Warsaw easier to drive in than Poznan...

and what if you just simply learn the theory and pratice a bit to drive ?
I did it by myself and passed at first time without any bribe in Cracow.

If you offered 1 million, I think few people would refuse the offer. :)
