I've been here about five months, recently committed to the US for the next 3 years (at least), and having an absolute nightmare getting car insurance (not least as 99% of US companies don't cover NJ).

Found the other posts very helpful, but does anyone know of a UK company that will take account of no-claims / driving history etc and provide international insurance, allowing you to drive in the US?

Also, there seems some confusion over whether non-USC can get US driving licenses - can anyone categorically answer this?

Categorically yes - just present yourself at the DMV, stand in line for what will seem like and may very well actually be hours, pass whatever tests they want you to take, have conversations with several DMV employees who probably didn't graduate high school, have your photo taken, and Robert will indeed be your mother's brother.
