If you are going to visit another country, you need to familiarize yourself with some of the important laws of that country. And if you are traveling by private car, it is best to have an idea of the rules of the given country.
Do they have the right to pick up a driver's license in another country
The very first question that will arise when traveling to another state, can they take away the rights for violation in a foreign country. To answer it, you first need to familiarize yourself with some of the necessary articles of international law.
According to article No. 42 "On stopping the validity of a driver's license", authorities have the right to deprive a driver of the right to use an international or national driver's license in their territory, if the driver violated the traffic rules established on their territory, for which, in agreement with legislation provides for the withdrawal of rights. In this case, the authorities that have deprived the driver of the driver's license to use the driver's license have the right to withdraw the driver's license and detain it until the end of the period for which his license is withdrawn, or until the moment the driver leaves this territory.
The choice of sanction depends on what comes sooner: the deadline for the seizure of the document or the offender's departure from the country.
In addition, the person who withdraws the driver's license is obliged to convey information to the authority that issued this license about the deprivation of the driver of his rights to use this driver's document.
If the driver's license is international, the authority that seized this document will certainly make a note in the place specially provided for this, that the driver's license indicated by it has temporarily ceased to be valid in this territory.
What actions should the driver take
From the foregoing, it is clear that in another country they have the right to revoke a driver's license. A person who crossed the border of another country must comply with the laws of the state in which he is located.
The driver may, at the first proceeding, which is connected with the deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle, file a petition for this case to be considered at the place of residence.
He can also further petition the judge so that the traffic police department located at his place of residence should take up the execution of this decision.
If the driver who violated the traffic rules, nevertheless, decided to deprive the driver's license, this document is sent to the country from which the offender arrived, and subsequently the driver receives his license at the traffic police at his place of residence.
