Durbe is a small town in South Kurzeme municipality, surrounded on all sides by farmland, with Lake Durbe nearby — one of the most beautiful lakes in Kurzeme and an important birdwatching site. This peaceful rural location with an active local community is an example of Kurzeme rural life, where transport is not an addition but an everyday necessity — the distances to Liepāja, school or a family doctor require regular trips.
Driving conditions around Durbe include rural highways, forest roads and connecting roads between small rural villages. This environment allows valuable rural driving skills to be developed — working with varying road surfaces, driving through small crossroads without traffic light regulation, and awareness of animals on the road. Urban driving experience for the CSDD examination needs to be developed in Liepāja.
When choosing a school, it is recommended to check the CSDD statistics for the schools of interest — these help objectively assess student preparation and avoid schools with weaker results. Liepāja schools with a large number of students provide more representative statistical data, allowing more reliable conclusions about a school's work.
Before signing a training contract, clarify the full training cost — not just the theory course, but also the number of driving lessons, their cost, the price of additional lessons, and any possible additional charges for CSDD examination registration or the medical commission. Transport costs to Liepāja for both lessons and the examination should also be factored in. The CSDD examination is taken in Liepāja.
