Explanatory Note
These regulations narrow the existing entitlement
of holders of overseas driving licences to direct issue of
Hong Kong driving licences and temporary licences.
The amendment in regulation 2 provides that direct
issue of temporary driving licences shall not be made in respect
of goods vehicles of a weight unladen exceeding 45 cwt.,
omnibuses and public cars.
Regulation 3 amends regulation 10 of the principal
regulations to prohibit the direct issue of Hong Kong driving
licences in respect of the classes of vehicles referred to
above.
Regulation 10 is further amended to provide that a
person who is the holder of an overseas driving licence may
obtain the direct issue of a Hong Kong driving licence only
if the overseas licence was issued after successful completion
of a driving test.
