People seeking their driver's license in Korea will get a little help on their road tests starting Thursday as they will now be allowed to use navigation systems for the first time.

KoRoad, which is in charge of administering driving tests in the country, said this is just one of several changes to the tests.

An additional driving route has been added to the road test, increasing the total to four.

Examiners will also be able to use tablet PCs and an automatic system to grade drivers for the first time in a bid to reduce human error.
