Which statement about the aptitude test standards for a driver's license is NOT correct? (Vision includes corrected vision.)
💡 Hint
The vision standards differ between Class I and Class II licenses, and the hearing standard also applies to specified licenses (Article 45(1) of the Enforcement Decree of the Road Traffic Act). Check not only the numbers but also which license each standard applies to.
Answer: ④
Explanation
Article 45(1) of the Enforcement Decree sets Class I vision at 0.8 or better with both eyes and 0.5 or better in each eye, and Class II vision at 0.5 or better with both eyes. The 55-decibel (40 with a hearing aid) hearing standard applies only when obtaining a Class I driver's license for large or special motor vehicles, so the statement that it also applies to a Class II driver's license for ordinary motor vehicles is wrong.
