Answer 5

You need to get an international drivers licence and your Vic licence needs to be up to date. Some states in America actually let you drive on just your Aussie licence but a bunch of them do NOT. California being one of them that you must have an international drivers licence.

All you do is pay I think it's $40. May have gone up since last time I got one (as I live in America for 1- 2years then move back home to Australia for 1-2years). You just go t roads and traffic authority and fill in the form, pay your money, bring in a passport sized photo and they make up this international lic. It looks dodgey as it's like a cardboard passport.

Oh bring your Aussie lic with you to America though, as if you get pulled over you need to show them both international and home lic. Also if you get pulled over for anything in America you have to go to court. But guess what? Nothing is put on your Aussie lic. Yeee Haaaa!!!!
