DR Congo Driving Theory Test case studies

The DR Congo driving theory test - usually called the Examen du Code de la Route in French, the language in which the test is delivered - is the written stage of the Congolese licensing process. Candidates normally sit it before the practical test, and it is aimed at anyone seeking a first licence for a car, motorcycle or light goods vehicle, as well as drivers converting or regularising a foreign permit. The paper is multiple choice and tests seven areas: road signs, signals and markings; traffic rules, right-of-way and priority; vehicle knowledge, safety equipment and basic maintenance; safe and defensive driving and hazard perception; driver conduct, penalties and offences; first aid, emergencies and accident procedure; and documents, licensing and administrative requirements. Most of the questions are short scenarios or sign-recognition items, so the paper rewards careful reading rather than memorisation alone. The DR Congo Driving Theory Test case studies are 5 cases and about 3,015 words.
