USA State of the Union Address?

[Frankj]

One question is how much truth there is to the assertion that "no license is required"

When I arrived in the US my foreign license was valid for a year. It made for some interesting potential situations when I went to take my local driving test because among the documents I needed to provide was the driving license of the person accompanying me. Since I already had a valid foreign license I techically didn't need that.

The driving test in the UK is far more difficult than the local test here. It's possible (even likely?) that a Mexican had a Mexican driving license. Is a Mexican driving license valid in the US? Does Mexico require drivers to carry their license with them (the UK does not)?

Mexican DL's at least used to be valid in the US for tourists but they still had to be carried while driving and presented on request if asked for it by LE's.

Don't know if the laws have changed or not.

Thoughts on last night's State of the Union Address?

I didn't stay up to watch it, so I'll try to watch a video later.

Feb 24, 2026

WATCH President Trump's full State of the Union speech in 2026, which broke the record for the longest speech given at the State of the Union in Congress, surpassing the Bill Clinton 2000 record at the joint session of congress.
