![]() it's very hard to find a carabinieri who speak another language then italian (a lot of italians speak only italian) and the law here need to have the translation.Īproposito seatbelts in the back: even if you don't see it here, but it's a law that you have to wear it even in the backseats. the same is here, if you don't have the translation you have to pay a ticket. ![]() i need the same when i visit canada or the us, and i know for sure that i will pay a nice ticket in the states if i would not have the int. it's the translation from your driving license into different languages. If you can think of any opeace of mind that will come from getting one - go ahead and do it. This makes no real logical sense, and I have never met anyone who has actually had this experience.īut the final flip side is that they cost very little (in money) and virtually nothing (in hassle or inconvenience to obtain - at your local AAA). Allegedly, if you are ever stipped for some infraction (or an accident) you might be asked to surrender your license - and you could surrender the international license and keep your existing state license. The practical answer is that car rental companies never ask for one, and it seems to be only "urban myth" that you need one. I was once told that technically, our local police (Westerville, Ohio) could issue a citation to any European driving with a foreign driver's license withOUT an international driver's license. There may be various technicalities which require you to have an international driver's license (which is really nothing more than a tranlation of the information on your existing driver's license - and the international is NOT valid without the existing driver's license on you at the same time) - under certain circumstances - like if you are involved in an accident, or commit a crime, or whatever. I think there is the technical answer (which I don't know at all) and then there is the practical answer. We haven't heard from you since the thread about the "best way to learn essential Italian" - did you ver actually see this thread (topping it right now) - things move "to the bottom" very fast here!
