Slightly more difficult. Any sign and any situation can come up, also
the ones involving military transports, horses and dustroads. In fact
you have to know almost all traffic rules :(
Typically you get a picture of a situation with a couple of cars, bikes,
and persons and a question along the line of: you want to go right here,
is that allowed? and 10 seconds or so to choose. And IIRC 50 question
like that.
