snip.... - An Int'l driver's license is easy for anyone to get from AAA or here in Canada through CAA. It has a very important hidden use. If / when you lose your license for a bad speeding offense, you simply switch over to the Int'l license and if you get stopped you mention that you are in the process of moving. It was a great help to me in the past....

Yup. WAy-off-topic but when we lived in the Chicago area, a Korean co-worker got out of innumerable tickets that way. When stopped by the infamous Chicago cops, all he would say in english is. "I want to go to the Embassy!" Then he would recite a poem or a lunch recipe in Korean. The cop would look at the (expired) Korean license, listen to god-knows-what in Korean, swear at him and yell 'GIDDOUDA MY AREA!" with no ticket, assuming he had diplomatic immunity. 'Course, many Europeans still think all Americans are rich so this may not work as smoothly as it did for Kim.
