@TAfrianski Well, I don't know what the answer to this is. I can only assume there's some interesting loophole that allows them to. More than half of the teachers at school own cars with the blue license plates of foreigners and it's hard to imagine that they are all driving illegally. There are all sorts of great stories about being pulled over by the police and money that changes hands but no one to my knowledge has ever been fined for not having a valid license.
