Kansas is the first state to offer a Spanish-language Alexa domain for driving exams.
The Kansas Department of Revenue, in partnership with the Kansas Information Network, submitted the Kansas Drivers Practice Test in Spanish. It is the first driving test in the country to take english and Spanish rates.
In October 2019, the branch launched the Alexa competition in English, which supported more than 300 users.
“The expansion of this service is helping us provide a handling check to more people as we expand knowledge of road protection in Kansas,” said income secretary Mark Burghart. “In addition, this tool is helping to provide the practice program in a way that suits audiovisual students.”
According to the U.S. Community Survey. From the U.S. Census Bureau, 24.7% of Kansas families are in English.
“Our team is proud of the advancement we’ve created for more Kansas residents,” said Duncan Friend, INK’s chief executive. “We try to create world-class virtual governance experiences, and this solution paves the way for long-term multilingual solutions.”
The Kansas Spanish Drivers Training Test capability is now available on the Amazon App Store. For more information, scale https://www.ksrevenue.org/dovalexa.html.
