I got my license last week, and the course is also available in Japanese. The translation is not very accurate, so there are a few questions that don't make sense.
It is definitely better to study at https://ristadrivingschool.com/practicetest/
and so on.
Practical skills are in English, but you can often find videos of the practical course on Youtube.
If you keep the instructions in mind, it is not difficult to understand English.
It is recommended to practice the practical course beforehand.

There is a Japanese exam.
The proposal to abolish other languages was ､ withdrawn a few years ago.
If you search for it, you can find a book of questions for the driving test
.
There's no need to worry about
English because the road test is not much of a conversation.

9 Really? ？ I checked the DMV website, and there is no Japanese in the list, even though there are Vietnamese and other languages
You should be careful because there are many people here who are too old to understand the current state of knowledge.

11 What a big deal, it's an American driver's license, you should take it in English. It's tacky and embarrassing.

I had a Japanese driver's license, moved here, got my SSN, went to the DMV in a certain town in Inland Empire, took the written and practical tests, and got my driving license. I asked the DMV if they had a Japanese text book on their website, but was told that there was no such book ！. So.... I read the English text book more closely and wrote the test. I was told by a Japanese acquaintance that it was better to take the test in English because the sentences on the Japanese test were too subtle and easy to get wrong...？ ？ Maybe because there are many Japanese Americans in that city, for some reason there was a Japanese written test, and the DMV told me "There is a Japanese written test for Japanese people ！ please come in. 366> Please come in... ！". I wanted to take the written test in English, but I was kindly pushed aside. I just barely passed the test. The Japanese version was really delicately worded. 。。。。 I was surprised that I just barely passed.

There is a yellow Town Pages in Mitsuwa Supermarket. At the back of the page, you will find past written questions. They are past papers in Japanese and English. I think it is a good idea to use it and study ♪
Also, if you come here on ESTA, you certainly can't switch. Even with a student visa, I think they can only give you a driver's license for the duration of your visa stay ♪ So it's good to get it as soon as possible ！ I don't think it's that difficult, so please do your best ！.

I took it in Japanese quite a while ago and failed.
The translated text had the English word "curve" wrong for the Japanese curve and curb, and there were other translation errors.
This was checked by the receptionist, who showed me the incorrect question and I checked it myself.

It is not recommended to study in English and take the test with Japanese questions.
I was able to retry the paper test, so I took it in English and passed with no problems at all.
It is better to take the test in Japanese if you studied with the Japanese question booklet in Townpages, and in English if you studied with the English question booklet.

There are texts in Japanese, you can get them for free at the DMV. They had texts in various languages -
I took the time in Japanese, but as you said, it is not a precise translation. If you are fluent in English, I would recommend taking the test in English.

Others have stated this, but I will write seriously.

1. Process of obtaining a license
There is no switching of Japanese license, so please proceed with DMV.
If you have an E visa or other VISA that allows you to obtain a Social Security Number (SSN), you will need to obtain an SSN first. For student VISAs, it is not possible to obtain one, so you just need to obtain proof of inability to obtain one. Please apply for the issuance of a document certifying that you are not eligible to obtain an SSN at the nearest Social ・ Security Office.

2. DMV Written Exam
You can take the exam in Japanese, so you can study here, which others have also linked to ？
I was able to renew my expired license 20 years ago with just the written exam, but I studied here. I studied here.

I think if you use your phone, solve the questions, check the ones you got wrong or doubt the correct answer, and review a couple of times you should be fine! I have a few questions that I'm not sure I'll be able to answer. You can take the test up to 3 times for the fee you paid, but only the first time you can get up to 6 questions wrong.
We recommend that you prepare well.
Don't forget to prepare your I-94 and proof of address ！
If you want Real ID, you will need two documents such as utility bill and insurance policy.

3. DMV Field Test
Once you pass the written test, it is time for the actual driving test. I took it in Bakersfield in 2002 and passed it in one shot, but please refer to your wife's episode who took it this week …

I am a driver with a good driving record, not a paper driver, but I was out in Torrance DMV in the first 5 seconds.
The reason was that I was going too slow when exiting the parking exit. He was so frustrated that he wanted to try again on the same day, so I checked around for same-day availability at DMVs on youtube that were relatively friendly, and was able to make an appointment at the San Clemente DMV 3 hours later, and after taking the test, he passed with -5 points instead of the 15 points minus required to pass. I passed with minus 5 points. It's hilly, but it's open and the test administrators all seem nice, so I would recommend it to anyone around Orange County, Torrance, or LA.

Just go to a driving school over here and take the test. It's usually a 2 day course. You can find any number of them on a search.

Even though the road conditions are different from Japan, drivers around me get worried if I drive just by reading the Booklet.

Since I came to America, I only drive automatic transmission.
The lady next to me drives a manual car
and she said that a manual car costs about $2000 less than an automatic.

You have to take the written test before you can take the driving test

You have to study for the written test and pass the written test to take the driving test

Or is it an abbreviation

When did you come here last year?　　When illegal aliens could easily get a green card.
That's when the Vietnam war was over and Korea was experiencing a 300% increase in immigration every year.
Chinese also moved east from downtown Chinatown to Monterey Park, Alhambra, and San Gabriel.
The area was divided between Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Beijing.
