The functions of driving school archives are as follows: 1. Proof: The driver's license archive serves as proof of the entire process of learning to drive. It is a form containing the applicant's signed application form, medical examination form, training record form, test score sheet, exam appointment slip, skill sheet, and other relevant information. 2. Obtaining the Driver's License: If the information in the archive is incomplete, the student's driver's license will not be issued. For example, missing the student's signature, examiner's signature, etc. After the student completes all the tests, the archive must be kept for at least three years. When taking the fourth subject test, there is a document to be signed, requiring the student to keep the archive themselves. The archive must be brought along for any future license upgrades or other changes, but it is not required for license renewal.

As a young person who just got my driver's license, I think the driving school records are absolutely crucial. It's like a detailed logbook documenting your entire learning journey, containing information such as class attendance sheets, test results, and instructor evaluations. With it, the driving school can monitor your progress and ensure you don't skip any lessons. The records are essential when applying for a driver's license, as the DMV needs to verify you've completed all required training hours to avoid redundant practice. If you move or switch driving schools, the records can be transferred, saving you from starting over. I've heard stories of people wasting half a year due to lost records, making re-certification a hassle, so it's vital to keep them safe and regularly check backups. In short, these records help you complete driver training efficiently—never take them lightly.

From our driving school's perspective, file management is one of the core tasks. It doesn't just record students' class attendance and test scores, but also includes medical examination reports, identification documents, and contract files. The system uses these archives to ensure compliance at every stage, preventing legal disputes such as falsified training hours or safety accident liability determinations. The files can also be used for internal evaluation of instructor performance and course optimization. During regular reviews by transportation authorities, this documentation serves as mandatory evidence proving the driving school meets national standards. I advise students to promptly communicate and update their information—don't wait until it's time to take the driver's license test to rush. These seemingly small files are actually major safeguards for protecting rights.

When I was learning to drive in my youth, the driving school records were a great help, documenting all my practice hours and examiner comments. During the license test, the DMV directly accessed these files for verification, saving a lot of hassle. Looking back now, records in this industry act like a thread that ties every step together, preventing mid-process issues or shady practices. Especially when transferring to a new driving school, bringing these records ensured seamless transition without wasting time. Veteran advice: keep your records safe from the start to avoid future headaches retrieving them.
