Hi All, I was recently stopped for faulty tailights in Portsmouth, I am here in the U.S. for 6 months on a B2 visa and I am due to leave in February, I was driving my girlfriends car and I am namedon the insurance policy, the officer asked for my I.D. and I showed her my full UK Driving License and the registration documents for the vehicle, she then informed me that I am not legal to drive here and to callmy girlfriend and get her to come and drive us both home. Is this correct? As I am only visiting the U.S and I am not a resident of Virginia I thought I would be legally able to drive with my UK license, also I am named driver on the insurance policy. The taillights have now been repaired.
P.S. My girlfriend is French and serving here with the military on an A2 visa, she holds a Virginia drivers license.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
