Getting a Driver's License in Bermuda
Summary: Here's a primer on how to get your driver's license in Bermuda.
Sometimes when you're new to a country a task like getting your driver's license can make you feel like you're 16 years old again trying to pass your driver's test. Here's an overview of the process of getting your driver's license in Bermuda.
In Bermuda, foreigners are not allowed to rent or drive cars, regardless of their place of residence. This is a country-wide law and does not vary by city, state, or region. However, visitors can rent scooters or electric mini cars, provided they have a valid driver's license from their home country. They must also be at least 18 years old to rent a scooter and 25 years old to rent a mini car. Additionally, they are required to take a short driving test before they can rent these vehicles. It's also important to note that driving is on the left-hand side of the road in Bermuda.
