Driver's License


Richard finally got his work permit - Because of this we were able to apply for our driver’s license. We went with our arsenal of documents – passport, international driver’s license, work permit, medical certificate, certified letter from the US Embassy and the IMB guaranteeing that we were who we said we were, our old Thai license and pictures of ourselves. At first we were told that our medical certificate was over a month old, so we quickly went out and got new ones. We had to take tests for color blindness, peripheral vision, depth perception, & reaction time. Then we got to watch safety videos in Thai for about an hour. Finally we were sent downstairs to get our 5 year licenses. All this took 3 ½ hours!
