Sorry! I didn’t know that Poland became an EU country!

Poland is not part of the European Union. So why does it have the European Union flag on it?

I came across these web sites and would like to add it to these comments. I have seen some of the items in this article during my stay in Poland over the past two months.: http://www.masterpage.com.pl/polish-driving-habits/

I’m living now in Zielona Góra and I also had that problem, I didn’t know how to drive here in polnad, or how to get Polish drive license since I’m from Bolivia.
So i went to the drive department here in ZG and they told me as my country doesn’t take part of Vienna traffic treatmen (US do) I can drive only 6 months with my Bolivian drive license and then I have to take a written exam in Polish or English to exchange my current license for a new Polish one.

But one friend of mine also told me that you I can drive with my Bolivian license and when a police will ask me for it, as I don’t speak Polish probably he won’t want to have too much problems so he won’t say anything else and let me go normally. Of course you have to follow the rules no?

Pozdrawiam!

I have an American friend retired and living in Poznan. He uses an International Drivers License obtained from the Florida AAA as previously discussed. He said he has no problem and even found it to be to his advantage when stopped by the police. “Nie rozumiem!” The police don’t want the hassle giving fines so use the USA license and get an international one. Why make it easy on them when they are making it hard on you!?
