Driving licence
Re: Driving licence
As far as I know you do not need a medical to drive trucks in OZ. I have a HC and would only need a medical if I was to drive a bus. I still get my licence classes renewed without medicals.StroppyChops wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2017 1:05 pm All good comments.
I've let my Australian driver's license lapse (annual medicals are a problem, even after handing in my truck classes) so I wonder if I could hire a car in Australia using my Cambodian license?
I have hired cars in the US and used my Cambodia licence as ID to check into hotel there in the past.
You should be able to hire a car with your Cambodia licence. My ex, went straight to a full OZ licence based on her Cambodian licence when she passed her driving test, so it was accepted by VIC Roads.

I also need to regularly update motor reg with medicals since my 2nd (corneal) graft enabled me to get my license again.StroppyChops wrote:Unless you're diabetic.LaudJohn wrote: ↑Fri Aug 18, 2017 2:39 pmAs far as I know you do not need a medical to drive trucks in OZ.

So I renewed my one year drivers license at the Aeon mall for 31,000. I was expecting $50

Re: Driving licence
I took my car license to V-Silk to obtain a Cambodian one having just renewed my big bike license 2 months ago - I kept being told it was delayed and the agent didnt know why. I just returned from Vietnam and VS gave me my license and money back and said the Ministry are not doing car licenses at present.
So I came home and called Lucky and was told .....
Any ideas? Heard of this before?
Cheers

- You can renew a Cambodian license if you have one
A new one requires two trips to the Ministry but they are not sure that will be a success
This seems to apply for all classes of license
It only applies to Barang
Maybe wait a few weeks and see what happens
Any ideas? Heard of this before?

No decent insurance company (oxymoron?) will insure you before you submit your licence to them.

Re: Driving licence
For what?
3rd party? In which case it would have to be driven by someone with a licence. Maybe theft?
