To assist you with any query you may have the International Office have produced a list of frequently asked questions.
Am I allowed to drive in the UK?
 Answer >> | If you have a valid driving licence or international driving permit, you can drive in the UK for 12 months from the date you arrive. After that time, you may have to take another driving test to continue driving.
Valid licence holders from certain countries can exchange their driving licence for a British one.
Please remember that the driving laws in the UK are very strict. The regulations and speed limits apply to everyone using the roads and penalties for breaking the rules can be quite severe; driving whilst under the influence of alcohol can result in a life ban. You must also have a valid insurance policy before you drive.
If you do not drive and you wish to learn while you are in the UK, a websearch will provide details of many local driving schools; you'll also find contact details in the local telephone directory.
There is more information about driving in the UK available on the website of the UK Council for International Student Affairs (UKCISA).
