K53 Academia is an independent study resource. The rules on this site are written from the National Road Traffic Act, 1996 (Act 93 of 1996) and its regulations, and the sign faces are the official ones published in the South African Road Traffic Signs Manual (SARTSM). K53 Academia is not produced, endorsed or approved by the Road Traffic Management Corporation. Confirm current fees, documents and booking rules with your local driving licence testing centre (DLTC).
