Driving in Spain - with an Australian licence. - 09/18/05 06:57 AM
Hi everyone,
I did a search on this but can't seem to find the answer to my question: I'm going to be driving from Malaga to England with my aunt later this month, and in the chaos of planning the rest of my holiday I totally forgot to check to see whether I'm actually allowed to drive her car (she's a resident in Malaga, has her own car with her own insurance) through Spain to get to England. I have an Australian driver's licence, not an international permit or anything. Am I going to run into problems here?
I can't believe I didn't check this out (a) before I left Australia and (b) before I agreed to help her drive. Oh well, I guess you tend to forget things when planning a year away.
Anyone have any insight?
Cheers,
