My USA (Illinois) drivers license expires in 2 years, but I wanted to get my license here regardless. I know I can’t trade in my listener for one here, so I’ll need to take the exams. I’m living in Xitun, Taichung, and need to ask help for the following:
Where can I go to find the drivers manual/ road rules for the written test?
Where can I go to take the written and driving test in English? (My Chinese ability is virtually 0)
Additionally:
Where can I go to get heavy motorcycle classes in English?
How can I get the heavy motorcycle designation added to my license?
I’m an American with a valid license, resident for over a year, have my USA motorcycle license (former owner of a Suzuki 650 Boulevard), and have an International Drivers Permit, as well as the certificate from the DMV that my IDL has been Registered.
English one can be worded weird. Also the study book is in Chinese. To study without knowing Chinese you must do the English practice test giving you random questions. So you may have to do the practice test 20 times to see all the questions.
Driver’s License has almost nothing to do with driving competence and all to do with control… Has anyone read the motor vehicle act ? Is it available in English ?
