Driving schools send group text messages to deceive candidates for direct driving license examinations

On the eve of the National Day holiday, many candidates who were preparing to take the direct driving test in Shijiazhuang received group text messages one after another, telling them that they could only take the official test after passing the mock test. After taking the mock test, some candidates discovered that it was actually a driving school called "Anke Motor Vehicle Driver Training Center". The results of the mock test had nothing to do with the official test organized by the Motor Vehicle Driver Test Center.

Candidates’ complaint: We were deceived by the driving school.

"The examination center will be changed to the Fangxing Road branch examination room. Please go to the examination room at 8:30 am from October 1st to 8th for on-site simulation. Only if you pass the exam can you take the exam." On the eve of National Day , many candidates who took the direct driving test received such a text message with the test address and contact number attached.

On October 12, when Mr. Wang forwarded this news to reporters, he was still filled with indignation. He said he received the message on September 30. Due to his special status in the unit, he needs to be on duty during holidays, so it is very difficult to ask for leave. After receiving this text message, and after several discussions with my leadership, I took half a day off to take the mock exam on October 7. There were too many people taking the mock exam that day. In the business hall, like others, he bought a simulation training card for 50 yuan and was told that he would have two opportunities for simulation exams. But he didn't get a chance to take the exam until 3 a.m. This time he failed, so he had to line up again. When it was his turn, he was about to get off work.

Mr. Wang later learned that some candidates failed the two mock exams and were told that they could buy another card. Many people are worried that they will not be able to take the official exam if they fail the mock exam, so they buy another card and queue up. However, it was not until October 11, when his friend told him that he could take the official exam instead of taking the mock exam that he realized he had been "cheated".

"How did we obtain our personal information from the driving school?" Mr. Wang told the truth to several "difficult friends" he met during the mock test that day, and everyone was helpless.

Field investigation: Driving school personnel actually participated in the examination.

On the morning of October 12, reporters rushed to the Fangxing Road Branch of the Examination Center of Shijiazhuang Public Security and Traffic Management Bureau. On the other side of the gate, there's another sign: Anke Motor Vehicle Driver Training Center. At the test site, most of them were candidates taking the direct driving test, and some were "difficult friends" that Mr. Wang met in the mock test.

Mr. Jia still retains several text messages he received at that time. He said that although he is a local, he has a factory in Baotou. During the holidays, business is busy. If he hadn't received "fake news" one after another, he wouldn't have come back to take the mock exam so far away. "Wasting hundreds of yuan in travel expenses is a trivial matter. If you delay going back and forth these days, the business loss will be huge!" Mr. Jia also spent 100 yuan to buy two cards and passed the mock exam. "The text messages were like real things, let alone 100 yuan. After several attempts, he failed. At that time, he gave the money to the 'examiner' of the mock exam."

According to the National Day Holiday Several candidates who took the mock test said that some of the people who were responsible for the mock test participated in the on-site test arrangement for the direct driving test that day, but what was different from the past was that the official test was inspected by the police. The staff responsible for the direct make-up exam also sells "Anke exam simulation training cards". The official seal on the simulation training card belongs to the Anke Motor Vehicle Driver Training Center.

Test center: Unapproved driving school

Sending text messages to candidates

On the afternoon of October 12, the reporter called the candidate’s saved text message. phone number below. The staff member who answered the phone said that the phone number belonged to Anke Motor Vehicle Driver Training Center. He admitted that the text message "You can only take the exam if you pass the mock exam" was sent by them, but he argued that the real meaning of the text message was "it is recommended to take the mock exam and then take the exam after passing the mock exam." If candidates missed the practice exam, they can now take the exam directly. If the candidate's name is reported on the phone, he can immediately find the candidate's reference information and exam schedule. “We assist exam centers in informing candidates about exam status,” he said.

"For candidates, we are the Fangxing Road branch of the test center, and for the test center, we are a driving school."

Then the reporter called the Shijiazhuang Motor Vehicle Driver Test Center, which is responsible for Registration for direct examination. A staff member said that their office is located at the Fangxing Road branch, and in the future direct driver’s license examinations will be held at the Fangxing Road branch. She had heard of driving schools sending simulated test text messages to candidates, but this was definitely not authorized by the test center. She said half-jokingly: "Maybe the driving school is afraid that the candidates are not familiar with the venue and the equipment will be damaged." She believes that the person in charge of the Anke Driver Training Center should give the candidates an explanation on this matter.
