The Ministry of Internal Affairs was instructed to review the activities of all driving schools of the republic, as well as the methodology for training drivers, and develop appropriate requirements. Licenses will be issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

In addition, the MIA Academy will deal with the methodology of driving schools, the curriculum, advanced training and the quality of teaching.

The Road Safety Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will create a database of drivers with their ratings. The driver’s rating will affect the driving school that trained him.
