I just passed the written test for my driver's license here in TX :dance:

I didn't study at all and just walked in b/c I saw the parking lot was empty. When I heard that you get 3 shots to pass, I just took the chance. Now the driving test on Friday ... hope I don't get the Autobahn feeling :whistle:

Gratz!

I'm surprised you even had to take the test. All Patrick had to do was show his German license, his passport with K1 and then I showed my ID and signed a form verifying that he lives with me...and tada! He got his Washington license. This was 2 days after he got here, before we even got married!

Thus far, it's been the easiest part of this process for us :)

Still waiting on EAD. We went ahead and made an infopass appointment because our NOA is dated 8/11....

We tried that too, but in Texas you have to meet certain ID requirements. The K1 didn't work b/c you need an I-94 that is valid for at least one year, the next best thing is the EAD.

For the test - Germany does not recognize driver's licences from Texas and vice versa, that's why you have to go through both the written and the driving test again. But the good news about that is, they can't confiscate my German DL which cost me thousands of DM (before the EUR came).

Ironically i can't find the Garden State Plaza anywhere on the NJTransit bus or train routes... hmmmm.

Garden State Mall is the other name..I can probably get you something at GAP, I can talk to the manager.

Don't let the choices chose you, chose the choices that you want.

I found out that some states like Utah have agreements with Germany and other EU countries. I remember my German friend and I walking in for written test. We both passed it but as he is German, he got his DL right away vs. me who had to do a road test. I am glad I got it there and then because now in Missouri I would only have to exchange my Utah DL which I might do after I receive my GC.

Montana used to have. Speed limit: "Save and prudent".

Feds killed that not long ago :(

Nowadays one still can drive as one pleases.

Overspeeding fine is: $5 (they call it environmental fee) payable to the officer on spot.
