There must be, whats to stop me flying to the US, taking a test, getting a licence and driving like a nutter over here and only having to pay fines.

This doesn't work so well if they think you're local.

It does work if your're obviously Johnny Foreigner.

It also works for Johnny Foreigner with a maiden name or convoluted foreign name that is different on their UK and own nationality licences.

It becomes complex if the result involves insurance and you've declared yourself as having a UK licence.

If was in charge of our porous borders I'd have instigated a database years ago that meant that in order to drive in the UK you had to have registered your licence details against your passport on entry. And as a foreign national in the UK when obtaining a UK licence your passport would be used to cross reference with any foreign licences you held. When hiring a car as a foreigner the rental company would be responible for recording the passport details. If you commit a traffic offence as a foreigner points would be assigned to your passport via the database.

But this is the UK and we run a third world border comtrol system and an open doors free health system. So clearly I'm *not* in charge.

Well, as a EU member you will have to honour EU documents.
How do you want to do that then?
