Hi There,

Thanks for sharing your question and situation with us. We can appreciate that this is a frustrating situation. We have had other users asking similar questions regarding other languages. Unfortunately, we have not found any translations.

However, the knowledge test is available in Chinese, Greek, Punjabi, Croatian, Hindi, Russian, English, Italian, Somali, Finnish, Korean, Spanish, French, Polish, Tamil , German, Portuguese at some DriveTest Centres in Ontario.

They also mention:

Oral knowledge tests are conducted at all Driver Examination Centres by appointment only. If a translator or interpreter is required by the applicant, the translator or interpreter must meet the criteria outlined under "Qualifications of Interpreters and Translators"


The Toronto Public Library has shared some Driver Education Resources (including Arabic) but not the handbook unfortunately.

You may want to contact community groups or organizations that provide services to the Arabic-speaking community to find out if they are aware of any translations of this handbook. You can find listings in our Settlement.Org Services Near Me section.

Some of our users may also be able to share their experience with you.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
