Interesting. While I trying to find one for Alaska I came across this. Might be of use to some here as well.

In California you can order a handbook in Russian. Either call DMV or go online.

My wife flunked the written test two times (you only get 3 chances before you are required to go to driving school. Expensive!). The test is given off of a computer. Fortunately, the DMV here allows a translator to accompany a foreign speaking person, so my wife found a young Russian woman to go with her and take the test. BTW, the system is such that you can't cheat using the translator as it is a paper test. Anyway, my wife scored 100% on the test! I was shocked.

Next problem...when she went for the driving test she could not understand anything the tester said. Nothing! She never got to move the car! Apparently the tester was middle eastern and my wife just could not understand her English with her strong accent. From what my wife said, I think the tester may have had an attitude as well...but I was not there, so can't verify.

Unfortunately, nobody can ride along during the driving test to translate. So...my wife continues to practice driving until she feels ready to attempt the test again. She has two more shots until next July when her learner's permit expires. We're hoping she does not get the same tester again. In fact, I think my wife will just refuse to get in the car.

I found online the state of Washington has a study guide in Russian. I know each state is a little different, but not that much as for the rules. In North Carolina Veka was able to take her test in Russian, but there was no study guides in Russian.

If you wife hasn't taken her driving test yet...get it in Palmer and not Anchorage. The entire driving test takes less than 10min. You leave DMV, take a spin around the block in Palmer...do a parallel parking in downtown Palmer, and then you back at DMV in no time flat. Way easier than Anchorage.

Thanks for the heads up, we'll probably go that route. I know on the writter portion, here in Anchorage, you can bring a translator with you. One of her friends brought her non Russian speaking husband with her who just gave her the answers. "Why can't you do that for me?" Well... you still need to know the rules! lol

better than admitting you can't remember all the rules anymore and would probably fail the test yourself if you had to retake it

After reading some of the rules, I sent Mila to a driving school so that she could pass. If I had taught her she would have failed for sure. She passed both the written and driving tests first time. The best money that I ever spent, as far as my stress level is concerned.
