Which statement about driving in Korea with an international driver's license issued abroad is correct?
💡 Hint
An international driver's license issued abroad has separate limits on period, vehicle type, and use (Article 96 of the Road Traffic Act). Check from which date the period is counted, and think about whether the license still works for someone in a disqualification period.
Answer: ①
Explanation
Under Article 96(1) of the Road Traffic Act, an international driver's license allows driving for 1 year from entry into Korea, limited to the vehicle types stated on it. Paragraph 2 bans driving commercial vehicles, except renting and driving a rental car. Under paragraph 3, a person whose disqualification period has not ended cannot drive even with an international driver's license.
