What is it?
A driver’s license is an official document that allows you to legally drive a car in the United States. It also serves as a common form of identification (ID) that Americans use for many everyday activities.
Who needs it?
No InterExchange programs require a driver’s license, but it may be helpful or necessary depending on your duties or personal travel plans. Almost all Au Pair USA placements require driving abilities.
