Any way around the drivers test??

Hi all, I am posting on behalf of my wife. We have recently arrived and I have converted my American license to a Dubai license no problem. Unfortunately the wife has a license only from Trinidad, so she is looking at a 20 lesson minimum. It is also ridiculously expensive, over AED 3000. Is there any way around this riduclous fee? If I go with her to the traffic police branch where I transferred my license, is there any chance I can help her out? Will they respond favourably to someone in an EK uniform? Anyone have any advice, or does she just have to bite the bullet and go to the driving school?

p.s., she has been driving since 1999.....
