Q: Has anyone taken the Chinese driving test in Chinese?
Is it really difficult? I can speak Chinese.
12 years 12 weeks ago in Transport & Travel - China
A friend of mine went to get his driver's license and they did not have a copy of the test in English, so he was told that he had to take it in Chinese but will be allowed a translator. And when the translator showed up, overdid the job required, since he not only translated the questions but provided the correct answers. I am talking about the written test, by the way.
In case you want to see some sample questions, try at :

Just learn it "parrot fashion" and you will be fine
A 15MB Excel (2007) file can be found at www.shekou.info/chinese_driving_test_questions_(blank).zip
This is an interactive MS 2007 XLSX spreadsheet that I made in which you answer the questions and it tells you if your answer is right or wrong. It contains 1315 questions from the 1500 question examination bank, related to cars only, in English only.

Sorry "I made" refers to the original author, I just copied the Email he sent me.

Sorry "I" here refers to original author, I only copied and pasted whatever he e-mailed me. Not trying to take credit for something I didn't do, an honest mistake due to the fact that I didn't bother double check the answer when I posted it.
Does your local traffic police station not offer the test in english? In Ningbo, they have a separate room with 4 computers dedicated to foreigners who wish to get their Chinese driver's license. I used the above excel spreadsheet posted, and scored a perfect 100 on my first try. The test itself is not hard, just rote memorization of those 1500 questions. If you try to take the test without studying first, you will more than likely fail. A minimum 90% score is required to pass, and some of the questions border on insanity and rediculousness. I spent a couple weeks studying. Good luck!
