Quick question about riding in France.

[Cigaro]

Here is the situation:

If I pass my test next month, I am planning to go to France as soon as I get my bike. I know you have to have been driving for a certain amount of time to drive in Europe - however I passed my car test more than two years ago, so does it apply from the date you got your first license (as I'm fairly sure I'm eligible to drive a car in France) or from the date you got the license you're using?

Cheers!

Wife drove in Ireland 4 weeks after passing test.

Saying that she wasn't happy about it, the roads are crap.

And i'd been out to the pub till 3am and was too hungover/still drunk to drive the following morning.

You might want to check that your insurance will cover you.
