Drivers will soon have Yoruba as an additional language choice in addition to Tagalog, Amharic, Arabic, Russian, Urdu, Hindi, Farsi, Portuguese, and American Sign Language.
Speaking on Tuesday, August 26, an administrator with the Motor Vehicle Agency in Maryland, USA, Chrissy Nizer, shared reasons for the additions, noting that the languages were selected based on the US census data.
“Improving accessibility for the driver’s knowledge test and study materials is critical to serve Maryland’s linguistically diverse population,” Nizer said.
