My future father in law says, traffic cop is a free enterprise endeavor in Ukraine. So i wouldn't try it myself. Title: Re: can i drive on my u.s. license in Ukraine?

Firms like AAA and other various travel support agencies will try to tell you otherwise, but ALL they are selling is a translation of your drivers license with a couple of stamps on it in an attempt to try and make it appear official. I have been stopped by the police in both Russia and Ukraine while driving. It was always interesting to see the look on their faces when I handed them my Wyoming License.

I have been stopped 4 times three were at check points and once was for speeding. I figured I was going to have to pay for sure when I got stopped for speeding, but the policeman just started laughing shook his head, said something about an "Americanyitz" and waved me off.

Jeez,what luck! I have been stopped twice, once took all the cash I had, less than $20. The other time we were taken to the local office for "suspicious behavior", but released shortly. Title: finally a positive experience! N/T Post by: cherokee on April 16, 2004, 04:00:00 AM |
