From my experience having lived in Kenya and Zimbabwe. Driving tests are in English, both have highway codes, traffic signs similar to our own: not that it matters as driving licenses can be bought, in Kenya the police do the driving tests and they love being bought.
But, no driver in Kenya drives according to the rules, it can be hell driving in Nairobi, believe me, bl...y matatus a menace. As for Zimbabwe no one can afford the price of fuel these days so the only vehicles moving belong to government ministers, officials party apparatchiks and none of them can drive either! And bl...y Zim army drivers are the worst.
