Carol has to pass her driving test in the UK despite the fact she has had a
US driving licence since 1975.
When she first came over she could have used her US driving licence for the
first 12 months but I couldn't put her on my insurance because she didn't
have a UK licence. She couldn't apply for a UK provisional until after we
were married and she got her "Further leave to remain" but
hopefully soon
she will pass her test and be able to drive unaccompanied.
Had she been Canadian or from the EU she could simply have exchanged her
licence but not from the USA !!!

Very true,
I tried it myself before and failed. Many of my "British" friends
also tried
and failed but my friends Indonesian wife passed the test.
Her only complaint was after she got her residency she was cheesed off that
they would not allow her to get a driving license without passing a test
even though she held a licence in her own country for over 10 years. She
was
upset after we told her that y ou don't drive in Indonesia, you use the
force and hope everyone gets out of your way. They are bloody looney
drivers
over here :)
Good luck to you both for the future.
Dave.

For anyone that wants to see the type of questions they ask you can try
some
of the online tests. I can't answer all the questions, in fact, on several
of the practice tests I took I couldn't achieve the required 18/24.

Quite WHY you would need to know a lot of that stuff is beyond me. I never
learnt it at school and sure as hell haven't needed it in the 38 years
since
I left school.
All the best.
Keith and Carol
