Im just wondering if its possibe for a british citizen to take an american driving test whislt in america under the visa waiver. I should be over there for 8 weeks shortly so I could maybe take it if its possible. I dont hold any driving liscense of any sort at the moment.

Once you have either of those, you can easily get a license regardless of your driving status in the UK.

Honestly curious here, as that blows my mind.

As soon as I got my EAD I took my Virginia test. Compared to what I faced in Britain it was truly a joke - sight test, road knowledge test, ability to change lanes, turn a corner and there you go. britain requires sight, knowledge, three point turn, emergency stop, hill start and reversing round a corner (like parallel parking only harder, honestly). The rules on proof of residency have tightened up since 9/11 too, so no chance he'll be able to take a test.

You *must* have a valid qualifying immigration status to get an EAD, and that's the *only* qualification (aside from paying the fee and waiting). Why would a state put more credence in an EAD than a visa? That's freaky.
