The legal basis for allowing licensed drivers to drive in other countries states or provinces as tourists or as temporary residents is based on reciprocity agreements that are often difficult to find and interpret.
Here at drivers.com we are attempting to find, organize and interpret these agreements and help drivers with issues about driving as tourists, exchanging their license for a license in another jurisdiction, requirements for international driving permits.
There are a number of articles around our web site related to these issues and we link to them here. There are also many comments and queries about licensing that travelers will find useful.
In addition, we have provided a comments section below for anyone who wants to contribute stories about their experiences or questions they would like answered.

Clara, I'm sure you can apply for a driving test, along with everyone else, but I doubt you can get an Irish license unless you are resident there. However, check our link on converting to an Irish License on our Driving in Ireland travel section

What is the status of people like myself who are retired, fulltime, R.V.ers and are retired from commercial transport jobs, hold a current CDL, but have no permanent residence but have a legal mailing address in a state? I've been refused part time driving jobs because I don't have a "Florida CDL' or an "Arizona CDL" or "California CDL".. I or others in my situation can't afford to change OLs, vehicle reg., vehicle insurance everytime I relocate which is sometimes three or four times a year..
