Driving & Driving Test Tips: Driving License, getting your passport, colombia south america

Question
Hi!
I'm from Colombia South America and am planning a vacation time in Miami city. I was wondering if I can use my Colombian driving license there or if I'm gonna need a new one and if so, how can I get it?

Thanx a lot

All you should need is a International Driving Permit.  It is not a license at all, but a translation of your Colombian driver's license.  Your embassy, where you are getting your passport or a AAA office are excellent places to get one.  Beware, there is alot of fraud with the IDP. The cost should be minimal ($10 US dollar).

Enjoy your stay in Miami
