“On January 9, I paid a fine for speeding: more than 50 km / h. As this is my first offense, I received half of the minimum fine, that is, 225 euros. And 1 month. Is deprived of the right to drive. I have to complete an additional course in a driving school during that month. In other words, to regain my rights, I have to listen to the theoretical and practical parts.
After paying for those courses, I learned that the driving part is not available at the moment. It turns out that until quarantine I will not be able to regain the right to drive a vehicle, ”wrote Robertas.
The man was also surprised that novice drivers had the opportunity to listen to the theoretical part during the quarantine and perform the driving part later. So after listening to part of the course, they can get behind the wheel.
“When I called Regitra, I heard that rookie drivers are covered provisional duties. This means that those who have to do the same course have the opportunity to do the practical part (driving) later. For lead drivers this option is delayed and for drivers like me nothing is provided.
I understand the laws of our Republic of Lithuania in such a way that rights are deprived for one month and due to the current situation I will have to wait maybe 2 or 3 months, if not a year.
I work as a driver and currently I have to take a month off because there are no alternatives at work and now I want to extend the quarantine until the end of February (the reader’s letter was sent before announcing the extension of the quarantine until February 28 – ed … past) and it turns out that I won’t get my rights back until March, and I’ll probably have to fire my job. I don’t see any other alternatives and I doubt that my employer will wait until everything is resolved, because nobody knows what will happen in a month, ”the man wrote.
You will have to wait for the quarantine to be relieved
As in the answer 15 minutes said the Ministry of Transport, in which case the offending drivers will have to arm themselves with patience.

We draw your attention to the fact that the right to drive vehicles is revoked due to serious violations of the TFE, which is why it cannot be returned in a way other than that provided by law ”, wrote the Ministry of Transport and Communications.
How to recover the lost driving license?
Emilija Bardauskienė, Regitra communication specialist, affirms that drivers who have lost the right to drive due to an infringement of the Traffic Rules will be able to recover it at Regitra after having fulfilled certain requirements. It depends on the type of infraction and the period of disqualification.

If a person has been deprived of the right to drive for less than a year, they must apply for a driving school and complete additional training there. It is not necessary to take exams in the Registry.
More stringent drunk driving requirements
In the event that the driver is intoxicated, an additional medical certificate must be provided in accordance with the mandatory training program on alcohol and drug-related harm to human health, as well as a driver’s medical certificate (to be issued after a KET violation).).
“After the implementation of the above requirements, the right to drive for these people is restored as usual, at the Regitra branch,” explained the specialist.
And if the right to drive is lost for more than a year, they await additional training and new tests.
If drivers are deprived of the right to drive for a year or more due to KET violations, they will have to complete not only additional training at the driving school, but also pass the theory and practice exams in the “Register”.
Practice tests are not yet available
