Starting June 1, people taking the driver’s license test in Taiwan will be required to answer questions about driving safety in snowy conditions, the Directorate General of Highways said Thursday.

The decision to ask such questions was made after a rare snowfall at lower elevations in Taiwan in January caused problems on icy roads, resulting in at least two deaths, authorities said

In January, Taiwan was hit by a record cold snap that brought snow not just to the high mountains but also to lower elevations where snow is rarely seen.
