Netherlands: Immigrants discriminated in driving schools

    Dutch driving schools reject immigrant students in order to keep a high success rate. That’s according to Trouw newspaper on the basis of visits by 25 driving schools. The schools’ success rate is advertised on the internet and a lower success rate is a bad advertisement. Eighteen of the twenty five driving instructors confirmed that immigrants who didn’t know the language so well were discriminated against. Four didn’t recognize the stories and three refused to comment.
