How does one obtain an US drivers license using a South African drivers license?

you can't just get the drivers license you need to take the driving test and the written test.foreign licenses are not transferable only licenses from other states in the u.s. you need to contact maryland's motor vehicleds department to know exactly what to do.

Hey Marky!! I guess ur RSA's driving lisense will be valid for a period of certain months with which u could drive around in the USA. just make sure u have applied for an international driving license which again is only valid for a certain time limit. Then, i think it's better u join a driving school. They'll be able to help u further. Hope i've been of some help to u. Be the change that u wish to see in your own world and once u do the world will change around you. C ya Jeyanth.k

yeah you may need to redo the whole written test... im not sure about the driving one... but you will have to do that asap... get a book and start studying.. take the computer test if they have it its so much easier...
