The consumer advocates from the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labor (AKOÖ) have closely examined the offerings of driving schools. While the cheapest provider charges 290 euros, the training for the most expensive costs 500 euros – and that does not include any costs for the authorities and the learning materials. A price difference of more than 70 percent.
The increase in prices is also noticeable in the cost of the “moped license”: compared to the previous year, prices rose by an average of 13 percent. The average price for training without your own moped is currently 365 euros. The cheapest offer comes from the Nefischer driving school with 290 euros including driving school moped. For the (Learning) materials are still coming 25 euros added. The experts found the most expensive offer was one Driving school in Linz for 500 euros – including driving school moped.
Online price information only at 9 driving schools
From a consumer protection perspective, driving schools are particularly worth highlighting Euroline, fairdrive, Haas, Lindauer, Mayr, Moritz, Noha, Pichler and Rauch. They make their prices available online, thereby enabling easy and up-to-date access to information.
Unfortunately, the driving schools in the Vöcklabruck and Wels-Land districts did not take part in the comparison. In the districts of Braunau, Freistadt, Gmunden, Kirchdorf, Ried, Steyr and Steyr-Land only one driving school provided price information.
Tips for choosing a driving school
- Find out whether the learning materials are included or how much they cost.
- Ask about the group size for driving training on the practice area.
- Check: Is there a separate theory course for moped drivers?
- How is the practical training divided? Are more units taking place on the street than at the training site? Can your own parkour at the practice parking lot be used for moped training?
- Look out for discounts and promotions in advance – for example with the Upper Austrian family card or registration for two!
