Driving licence in the Netherlands

Learner drivers in Austria will no longer be able to take their theory test in Turkish, the transport ministry said on July 21, blaming the cost of translating the exam.

As of Thursday, drivers who have had their permits or license plates confiscated by police for minor offenses can reclaim them so they can vote in the upcoming local and European elections.

This does not apply to drivers who have committed serious offenses such as driving under the influence of alcohol, breaking the speed limit or running a red light.
