Hola,
I'm visiting the US as a tourist on the visa waiver program. I have a British driving license which allows me to drive here. I'm in Arizona and Monday / Tuesday I'm completing a motorcycle training course.
I have spoken to the DMV here in Arizona and I believe I can take my British passport (with I-94), my UK driving license, a credit card and my motorcycle certificate and be issued with a full AZ driving license including motorcycle endorsement.
However, a friend in Arizona has just told me the license will only be valid for as long as I'm allowed to stay in the US. Can anyone confirm if this is true?
I'm pretty sure I checked with the DMV and they told me it would be a full license valid until I'm 65 (I need to update the picture & eye test every 12 years).
I want to take the bike up to Canada and then down to Argentina and probably back, so I really need a license which will be valid beyond just my time in the US. I'm not planning to stay in the US.
Any advice / feedback would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully it all works out when I get to the DMV on Wednesday.
