国际驾驶执照-假期

For more than 50years,travelers have been using the international driver's license to travel in foreign countries.The idea is that a driver with a driver with a valid driver's license in her own country can drive freely in another country without going through another driving test.Of course,this is true only for countries that participate in this program.

50多年来，旅游者可以持国际驾照在外国旅行时使用。它的用意是：一个在自己的国家持有效驾照的驾驶者，可以在另一个国家自由(合法)地开车而不用再经过(该国的)驾驶考试。当然，这只适用于有参加这个计划的国家。

The United Nations has a deatailed guideline for how the license should be presented;including what information and what languages should be displayed.Getting one is fairly easy.Since you already have a valid driver's license,getting the international license is a matter of filling out the application and paying for the processing fee.

联合国有个关于如何制作该证(国际驾照)的详细规定：包括应该列出哪些资料及包括哪几种语言的翻译。申辩一个国际驾照是很简单的。既然你已经有驾照了，辩国际驾照就只是填表申请和交付手续费的问题而已。

Once you have the license,you can rent cars and drive in foreign highways.If you happen to be stopped by law enforcement officers such as police,you have to present both licenses.The international license can never be valid alone.Some countries may recognize your own driver's license,but having the international license will save you from potential hassles and resolve language barriers.

一旦你有了些驾照，你就可以租车在国外的公路上开车了。如果你被执法的官员如警察拦下来，你的两种驾照都必须拿出来。光是持国际驾照而没有本国的驾照是无效的。有的国家可能会承认你本国的驾照，但持有国际驾照可以让你免去可能发生的争论和解决语言上的障碍。
