An academic certificate does not define our life skills. A person should be allowed to have a driving license if s/he can drive properly regardless of their other skills. Driving is practical work and it cannot be considered depending upon the theoretical knowledge. It is completely fine to provide a non-class-12-graduate license because driving makes a person skilled, independent and responsible.
It’s never too early to learn a new thing in life. Driving is a basic life skill and almost 80% of the total population owns a driving license whether of cars, bikes or other automobiles. A person should be given a driving license no matter what their age or educational qualification is if s/he can pass the driving trial. There are some people eager to practice new skills and can do it with perfection at a young age.
Driving skill makes a person independent. They do not have to wait or ask other people to drive them to places they want to go. A person can be rich and fulfilled without completing class 12 and driving is the only skill they need in their life. It makes a person free to go anywhere anytime without having to depend upon others. It also saves one’s time.
Driving license grants a person certain responsibilities in their life. If any member of their family or friend is sick, they can rush him/her to the hospital in time. They could also be the one to pick or drop a child to the school. A driving license is a vital thing for a person who chooses to earn for their living by being a driver. It makes a person mature and careful.
Driving skills and educational qualifications have not connected between them at all. The policy of requiring a person to complete class 12 before receiving a driving license could hold back their life. A driving license should be given without judging educational skills because academic certificates are not given judging a driving skill. Thus it makes a person's life self-dependent, easier and better.
