Varakļāni is a small town in Rēzekne municipality, situated between the Madona and Rēzekne districts in eastern Latvia. This compact town with an agricultural setting and an active community is a typical Latvian rural centre, where the distances between places are large enough to make personal transport invaluable for every active resident — both for everyday mobility needs and for rural working life.
The driving environment around Varakļāni includes agricultural zone roads, regional highways and a network of small rural crossroads. This environment provides good practice for developing basic driving skills, but the conditions of the CSDD examination in Rēzekne or Madona also require additional urban driving experience — traffic light systems, public transport lanes and higher pedestrian density in the town centre.
Before choosing a school, it is recommended to consult the CSDD statistics — theory and driving examination pass rates are an objective way to compare schools. The statistics reveal the actual preparation of students regardless of how large a budget a school invests in advertising. For those who want to understand a school's work in greater depth, it is worth looking at data over several years.
Before signing a training contract, clarify the total training cost, the number of lessons included and the price per additional lesson. Transport costs to Rēzekne or Madona — both for theory lessons and the examination — should also be considered, as this factor can significantly affect the overall training budget. The examination is taken in Rēzekne or Madona.
