This to find out how practical and theory exams vary around the world, and which countries have the easiest and most difficult tests.

They also stumbled upon some pretty bizarre testing elements. From driving tests without examiners to those with students and police officers in the back seats, take a look at the weird and wonderful requirements around the world.

Kenya
Driving tests in Kenya feature a toy car and table-top board which learners must navigate around to demonstrate road policy awareness.

Andorra
Driving tests in Andorra can only be taken on a Wednesday morning.

Kazakhstan
Here, practical tests are moderated by onboard computers that monitor the driver’s performance. This means there’ll be no examiner in the car with you.

Lesotho
Due to the uneven road surfaces in Lesotho, many learners will take their tests in 4×4 vehicles.

Libya
Whilst taking your practical test in Libya, it’s a tight squeeze in the car! You’ll be joined by a police officer, driving instructor, and other learner drivers taking their exam after you.

Romania
Theory test applicants in Romania will be photographed three times during the test to use as evidence that they actually took the exam.

China
You must complete a practical test on an obstacle course, however, there will be no examiner in the car, instead, you will be assessed by cameras and sensors.

Slovenia
With eco-friendly vehicles becoming increasingly popular, in Slovenia, you’ll be tested on the basic techniques of energy-saving and environmentally-friendly driving in your practical exam.
