CBR

The Centraal Bureau Rijvaardigheidsbewijzen (central driving test organisation) is responsible for the theoretical and practical driving tests for both the ordinary public and professional drivers. The CBR runs around 500,000 tests a year via its 200 centres. You can only learn to drive through an authorised driving school in the Netherlands and the waiting list for a test can run into months.
