Based on reports of official notices; confirm on the official site.

Overview

The Teoria is the written (theory) test for a driving licence in Israel. This page rests on the English Wikipedia article on driving licences in Israel because the Israeli government site (gov.il) could not be read when this page was checked. Confirm details with the Ministry of Transport and Road Safety before you apply.

Who can apply

According to Wikipedia, anyone aged at least 16 years and 9 months may receive a Type B (passenger car) licence. Before the theory test, an applicant has a medical check and an eye check.

Exam pattern

The Teoria is a 30-question multiple-choice test, and an applicant must answer at least 26 correctly to pass. The article does not state the time limit, languages or question pool.

Marking and results

If an applicant fails the written or the driving test, they must wait one day before retaking the written test. After the theory test, an applicant needs at least 28 lessons at a certified driving school before the road test.

After the exam

Once the driving test has been passed, the licensing authority issues a temporary licence with a payment voucher, and the official licence is mailed after the fee is paid. Wikipedia also describes restrictions for new drivers, including a "New Driver" sign for the first two years.
