Traffic laws and their standards determine eligibility for a driver's license for the benefit of people and drivers. It is not permissible to violate them or to pay money to circumvent the law, as this is considered a forbidden bribe. The questioner must avoid that and endure the difficulty of transportation, as that is better than exposing himself and others to accidents.
