Driving Abroad

Post by concept-e »

No idea which forum this falls under. Just wondered what the guidelines were for driving abroad, such as age limitations, whether you need to have held a licence for a certain number of years or what? Just before I plan my holiday!!!!

Also how can you change the size of an image when posting it, or do I have to resize it before it is hosted?

Steve,

Are you worried about your insurance? Or local legal limitations?

I guess a bit of both. I was concerned with European regulations but now I suppose my insurance company would have a few things to say as well!!!!

AFAIK there are no legal implications with regard to how many years you have held your license for... the only implication will be with your insurance company, but ifyou check your documents it will say how many days euro cover you have.... I think I have 90 days, it will also say which countries you can drive in. Usually all the EU member states... best bet is to dig out your insurance and read the small print ;)
