Со своими правами разрешается водить машину в течение 1 года, затем нужно сдавать устный зкзамен для этого надо проштудировать Road Code, затем - вождение. Для вождения взяла пару уроков с инструктором, что очень оказалось полезным, поняла какие требования будут у экзаменатора. Сдала с первого захода, без проблем. Правда, в Окленде немного страшновато водить, но ничего привыкаю, да и GPS очень помогает.
спасибо за отклик. Все сказанное Вами справедливо в случае, если Ваши права не признаются "свободно конвертируемыми":
