What the test covers
The question bank has 349 questions available for this test: 19 specific to private car and 330 shared with the other categories. They come from the sample exams published by the Ministry of Interior, from the Kuwait Traffic Law and its executive regulation, and from the official road signs (with the pictures). Questions about fees and fines are left out on purpose, because those amounts change over time: check the Ministry of Interior for current amounts.
