ROP Introduces Electronic Driving Tests

7 January 2021

Applicants can use simulation devices that utilize augmented reality technology.

The Royal Oman Police (ROP) just made life a lot simpler for many of us since they opened a traffic safety institutes system yesterday in different governorates and launched three online traffic services. The new online traffic services include an electronic system for the testing of drivers, online issuance of driver’s licence and online issuance of vehicle registration card. This was announced at an event held at the Traffic Safety Institute in Ibri as part of the ROP Annual Day celebrations. 

Testing of Drivers

The traffic safety institutes system utilises modern technology and advanced devices for the training of vehicle drivers and increasing their traffic awareness. The electronic driver’s testing allows the applicants to perform the preliminary test required for obtaining a driver’s licence electronically. The e-system enables the applicant to book an appointment and do the theoretical tests electronically following which the applicant moves to simulation devices that utilise augmented reality technology.

Online Issuance of Driver’s Licence and Vehicle Registration Card

Online issuance of driver’s licence and vehicle registration cards, which can be accessed via the ROP smartphone app, enables the user to get copies of the driver’s licence and vehicle registration cards and save them on their smartphone. The service also enables users to check the status and validity of their driver’s licence.
