I’m doing a road trip and I had some questions in regards to international drivers license and different state laws.
Hey Marcelo! That sounds like an exciting trip. Are you wondering about the requirements for using an international driver's license in Minnesota or other states you're planning to visit?
So I have a Mexican drivers license and I’m planning on driving in Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan. Do you know if I can legally drive a car in the US and more specifically those states?
Hey Marcelo! Yes, you can legally drive in the U.S. with a Mexican driver's license. However, it's recommended to also carry an International Driving Permit (IDP) for translation purposes. Each state might have specific rules, so check with their local DMV for detailed requirements. Safe travels!
So if I get stopped I wouldn’t have any problems with the law?
