Digne-les-Bains, a small town in department 04 within the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region, has 17,979 inhabitants according to INSEE. Preparing your Supervised Driving (AAC) in this commune means dealing with local specificities: traffic density, exam infrastructure and funding schemes that are specific to the territory.

Digne-les-Bains is part of PACA and sits in 04, in an environment where Mediterranean climate and the mistral shape driving conditions. Connections combine the A8/A50/A57 motorways, pass roads (Galibier, Izoard) and Mediterranean corniches (Grande, Moyenne, Basse). The mistral, blowing down the Rhone valley, can be very strong for days and push high-sided vehicles sideways. Classified petite-ville, Digne-les-Bains allows structured progress with moderate traffic but varied situations: angled parking slots, bay parking and access to public facilities.

On the practical side of the Supervised Driving (AAC), department 04 is characterised by an estimated 63-days average wait (national average) between request and exam date. The driving school manages candidate registration on the RdvPermis platform subject to departmental availability.

In parallel, the highway code theoretical test (ETG) can be taken with several state-approved operators. La Poste, one of the most widespread, offers an official search tool allowing candidates to book a session close to home.

According to the ONISR, the 1st-presentation pass rate for the B licence in department 04 stands at 65.2%.
