Can I use my Malaysian Driving licence in France?
Do you know that we, as students, we can use our Malaysian driving license to drive legally in France? You don鈥檛 need to spend hundreds of ringgit just to get an international driving license. But, you must have the translated version of your Malaysian driving license in case you have problems with the police.
And do you know that when you are driving, priority is given to drivers on the main road. But in France, it鈥檚 another story in certain area, priority is given to drivers from your right, so if you鈥檙e driving straight, you must stop to allow them to enter the main road.
