there are several steps you need to take before you can even think about getting behind the wheel. first you need to pass an eye test. then you must complete a 1st aid course so that you're prepared if you get into an accident, you okay, the once you've done those, it's time to enroll after driving school. german low dictates that you must attend at least 21 hours if theory classes on top of 12 practical special training drives . so you can get a friend or a family member to teach you wrong. it has to be a qualified instructor. mm hm. right. that's a lot of sense. i got my license in scotland when i was 17 and i didn't need to take an i test or do a 1st aid course. my dad gave me a lot of my lessons and i think i did maybe 10 official hours of lessons. so quite
11:04 pm
a big difference. there wasn't like in your country. here, some facts and figures about germany. it has the highest number of registered passenger cars in the u, around 49000000 on ranks 3rd in europe for traffic injuries per 1000000 inhabitants . after austria and son reno. but germany has one of the lowest road test rates at 3.3 per 100000 inhabitants. compared to 6.6, europe wide, 10.8 in the us, and 14.6 roadway. and one of the lowest rates of drink, driving dad's side to africa in the us have the highest here in germany. you're like 0.5 milligrams per millimeter of blood. and less you cause any trouble on the streets that's around 2 small beers for the average man, but maybe just one for me. although, to be honest, i wouldn't advocate drinking and driving either way. okay,
11:05 pm
now we're ready to start driving. i'm heading to a lesson, but to get there, i need to get onto the german also boss, which is famous for having no speed limits onto the altima on top of the line, but so it makes me a little bit the driving safety center. now it's time start driving lessons. i me thing a certified driving instructor to get them. 2 done on everything that these lessons entail ready. robert fleming has been teaching berliners to drive for 2 years. berlin is a notoriously difficult city to learn how to drive it. so he seems like the best person to take me on a test drive. so what does the bulk of driving lessons in germany actually look like? what's the general idea of a good?
11:06 pm
i'll do you have 12 hours of basic material followed by 2 hours of class specific material for category be the card driver's license. then comes to c retest. after that, you can start your practical less than straight away, and then the special training drives begin and all the special training drives over the highway country roads and tonight driving to sort of left thoughts. folks, when can i and how expensive is it to learn? how to drive and driving these things these days, i think you can or should expect to pay around 3500 euros on average for the variable. and the tax collections is typically run from $900.00 to $2.00 stivers in euros and total special trips, a k nighttime drive cost, an extra $400.00 to $800.00 heroes. and the practical exam itself costs up to $250.00 euros with registration fees. and theory lessons on top of that, germany is one of the costs of plays. countries in the world to learn to drive in
11:07 pm
norway in switzerland are considered the world's most expensive otherwise for sizing bureaus. while countries like india, thailand and russia are among cheapest. so do you think there's a reason why germans are known for being such disciplined road users? you think the test is quite complicated, but one does what is. first of all, i believe that the germans like regulations market and they, they like laws. they like to know how to behave the so if i have not. um, i think the other reason is that in germany in particular, people have respect for other people's property. but even more than that, respect for their own property. oh, how about i don't know if he's gonna be out for them. i don't, i can. we're on the autobahn again. so back to that know speed limit say i am very aware of the fact that on certain parts of the whole spawn, there is no speed limit. well, what's your thoughts on that? yeah, the ultimate that there's no speed limit in germany comes up your time and again,
11:08 pm
that's it. yeah, there are speed limits in germany and there's a problem, the parts of a highway where most people think there's none. there was still a recommend got to be for them and that is 130 kilometers per hour on each german highway estimate the weight of new ken dry faster. it's technically permitted and then you can drive it 400 kilometers an hour for all i care. but you're taking on a huge responsibility for yourself and that as well as for the other really to another does add us to another using font. and if you have an accident, you may no longer have any insurance coverage since you were driving faster than the law permits out to under the best possible condition. i was just there for the fun. i think that's a good idea of the best thing about that. i think the city of berlin does have a bit of a reputation for having quite a high fail rate, doesn't it? yeah, yeah. so, so in the theory exams almost have failed the 1st time. the 3rd. okay. admittedly, i did fail my theory the 1st time. okay. so somewhere between 40 and 50 percent
11:09 pm
fail on average in germany when it's such a placement. very good. we've already nodded our head is today and in the practical, it's a good 30 percent of people that pass or fail the boys that fail on the 1st attack because of china, montenegro hungry, japan and australia from the toughest task requirements. while bangladesh, belarus, egypt, india, and mexico are among the easiest with minimal theory and practical experience to shop. well, thank you so much for teaching me how to drive in germany and what the verdict do. you think i would have passed it, but as i can do has to get the past. but just bear with me that there were 2 or 3 little things you could pay more attention to in the future, or finding, waiting for those fund bundle. expect them back to me. i know how much does the
11:10 pm
rest chip job? okay, perfect. thank you so much, i really appreciate it. thank you soon. got it. okay, so you finally passed your test for, right? that means you don't need to worry anymore, right? well, not quite. for 2 years, you're on probation. that means if you commit any violations during this time, you risk losing your license, it's okay. you're not as truly qualified driver, simple kind of. so there are a lot of steps involved, but to be honest, it does make me feel safer driving on the roads here, knowing that everyone around me clearly had to be a very good driver in order to be able to pass their test. how does the process compared to your countries? let us know and the comments of the police has many boston clubs in really unusual locations. and this is one of that

even though it might look like it, i'm a volunteer with someone. and one of the most confuse or for risk of guidance on the front end, but i don't just enjoy the sunset things. you kind of also that perfect starting point to explore balance. legendary, nice. to kind of opened in 2017. it's a rooftop terrace. be a god and the club all at once. hobbin sandbag was the one who opened it. he's been puddled felons club scene since the 19. i think one of the big topics is professor natalie is ation. it's getting more and more professionalized. we started in berlin with the fall of the berlin wall and we had like empty factories. you had not to pay any rent. the electricity was still on and you just could start to raise the front of the building was once the beginning of the city is collapsing, as we know it today. empty buildings are founded in east berlin. a lot of clocks were born off to autism, and others broke into basements and started to hockey. this, for example, that is the one that club opened below the phone levels of

a department store and earned berlin. it's titled as capital off tech know, before long techno had become massively popular, the law parade which began as a political demonstration in 1989 became a huge techno party with around 1500000 ravens attending during its peak in 1999. these days burdens clubs of world famous flags back on which opened in 2004 as the name of the world's best. not many times fuss is the cities club scene test . we know it's in danger. i think so. it's in danger. you won't find a space at the subculture and like the accessibility for club culture is like more and more in danger. people like you have to pay many years to get in or 25 because everything is more and more expensive. and i think one of the core values is the accessibility in berlin for club culture. it's like way again, who's done this because it's important that you bring people together like you know
