Code 95 is a European directive that has been made mandatory for drivers who drive a vehicle that requires a C2, C, D1 or D driver's license. To show that you are and remain competent, you must take refresher courses every five years. By taking these refresher courses, you earn Code 95 points. Every five years you must obtain a minimum of 35 points, otherwise you are no longer competent to drive the vehicle. Depending on the number of practical lessons of the training course, a number of Code 95 points are awarded for completing the training course.

The aforementioned European directive was introduced to promote road safety in Europe. This directive should reduce accidents involving either buses or trucks. An additional reason why this directive was introduced at the time is to reduce overall fuel consumption in Europe. This will contribute to a better and cleaner environment which ultimately benefits both the planet and people. The fact that every driver has to take refresher courses every five years will, by all accounts, increase road safety.

Have you fulfilled the mandatory 35 hours? Then this will be passed on to the RDW. The RDW registers your hours and when you pick up your new license they will add the Code 95 points to your license. You can check the status of your hours at www.mijnccvexamenhuis.nl. When you register, make sure to indicate that you want to take the training and that you would like to do so according to the Code 95 refresher training guideline, because we will eventually pass on your hours to RDW. If we do not know that you want to qualify for Code 95 points, unfortunately we cannot pass anything on to the RDW.
