Re: Getting MD drivers license - has anyone done it??

Yeah, as I said before, I only have to exchange my license for the new one. Oh and I also had to take the 3-hour drug-and-alcohol seminar that all new drivers and all out-of-country license holders...

Re: Car insurance - any recommendations?

Frambuesa, I'm in a similar position - I currently drive on my German drivers license which the insurance (GEICO in our case) isn't crazy about; it also looks like they won't accept my no claims...

Re: ADIT processing?

Ah! Ok thanks for that!!
