...when I moved to the UK, all those years ago, I did the right thing (or so I thought) and went to DVLA office in Lincoln to exchange my Australian drivers licence for a British one. My OZ licence entitled me to drive many different classes of vehicles...cars, motorcycles, LGVs, HGVs, Road trains (HGVs with up to three trailers and a max GVM of 300 tonnes), buses and coaches, rigid and articulated, single and double deck versions. My logbook, which I produced along with my licence, showed a verified record of just over 2 million kilometres on all of the above classes...no record of traffic offences, fines or sanctions. The best they could do was give me a licence for a car!!!
It's about to happen again...my UK licence has expired and I now need to get a Bulgarian one...maybe a licence to keep a dog???
