EDITORIAL LEARNING AID

Why is this answer correct?

The theoretical driving test can be taken in numerous foreign languages, because the official question catalogue is translated into more than ten languages. Answer d is therefore correct. A minimum period of residence (a), a ban without German skills (b) or taking the test abroad (c) are not requirements.

The theory test is available in many languages – no need to fear German.
