Drive time in China

BEIJING - All driving tests can be hard, but the Chinese driving exam is a beast on a whole other level. Enter David Van Dyke and the team of software developers, who have devised a new way to prepare for the 13,000-question exam.

Both the app and the company ThinkNao are the brainchildren of Van Dyke, a 43 year-old Beijing resident from Windsor, Canada. Van Dyke devised the app, China Drive, as a means to help foreigners and locals like himself who have found it difficult to take the massive Chinese driving exam.

"What foreigners have to do to get their license is to get a 90 percent score," said Van Dyke. "I remember I failed it my first time because there was a bunch of questions that related to points; how many points do you lose if you drink and drive, how many points do you lose if you hit a pedestrian, they're all different points.
