The average waiting time observed in department 13 for the practical Points Recovery Course exam is around 63 days (national average). The Prefecture of Marseille coordinates session scheduling via the licence-and-road-safety inspectors.

ONISR statistics put the 1st-presentation B licence pass rate at 55.3% for department 13. This rate is lower than the national average of 58.0%, which reflects the demanding exam conditions often observed in dense urban areas. This figure gives a useful benchmark for preparing the Points Recovery Course, though the final result strongly depends on training consistency.

For administrative procedures linked to the Points Recovery Course, candidates in La Ciotat deal mainly with the Prefecture of Marseille and with the ANTS portal for digital requests.
