The arm of the Land Transportation Office (LTO) in the National Capital Region announced that it is giving free 15-hour theoretical driving course (TDC) sessions this month to those who will apply for student permits.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Has the number of slots for the free theoretical driving course sessions this month already filled?

    Yes, the slots for the free theoretical driving course sessions for January 2023 are already filled but will soon announce the next set of sessions for February.
  • How long are the free TDC sessions?

    The free TDC will be held for 15 hours in the course of two days (from 8 a.m.-5 p.m.).
  • The agency offered the free services (which is a requirement for the application of student driver’s permit) that will teach hopefuls the fundamentals on driving a vehicle such as roads signs and markings, rules, courtesy, among others.

    LTO-NCR free TDC

    The free TDC sessions will be held at LTO-NCR West Regional Office-Driver’s Education Center (DEC) at 20 G. Araneta Avenue, Barangay Sto. Domingo, Quezon City on the following dates:

    • January 10 and 11, 2023 (Tuesday and Wednesday; 8 a.m.-5 p.m.)
