Re: Driver's Licence conversion

Ah, I miss the wild-west driving antics of the third world. No cramming 30 people onto my bakkie, no removing the steering wheel and replacing it with a shifting spanner to make room for one more person in the front, no bull-bars for ramming Sunday drivers, no disregarding red lights, no 'the only rule on the road is that there are no rules', no road-rage.
So you know what I'm talking about... Well if that's your kind of thing you'll be happy to know that nothing has changed. I even saw a bakkie driving home one night (people on the back of course), except there was no rear tyre - simply driving on the rim like it was completely normal. It was pretty loud I can tell you! I even managed to shock the locals with that story so it must have been bad.

About the UK option - if you are still pretending to be resident this might work, however it would involve a hassle for you since you'd now have to go there and go for an interview at a post office or some other BS, but you'd have to check it out. It might be that the control drive option works out easier?
