The Special Investigation Service (STT) of Lithuania has reported significant corruption risks within the driver's vocational training system. These risks may lead to abuse, illegal agreements, and ultimately harm the professional qualifications of drivers and the public interest. The STT's findings indicate that the exams assessing theoretical and practical competencies may not always be conducted transparently, raising concerns about the integrity of the training process.

Moreover, it was revealed that the existing oversight mechanisms are inadequate. In several instances, during the verification of the theoretical examination, the training institutions' premises were locked, and attempts to contact them through the specified phone numbers were unsuccessful. These observations indicate a lack of accountability and control in the vocational training institutions, which are supposed to ensure that the assessment process is fair and transparent.

Additionally, the report highlights that driving schools conducting the training are also responsible for evaluating the students' performance, creating a conflict of interest. As practical assessments are neither recorded nor documented, there is a significant absence of evidence regarding the authenticity of these evaluations. This situation raises serious concerns about the reliability of the driver qualification certifications being issued and signals a need for reform in monitoring and regulating the vocational training system.
