The Afgani can make us of his license for three month as a result of this 1926 treaty. Otherwise international tourism and business would become very difficult.

However: RESIDENTS are are not visitors. And as TFM correctly said: He could not get a CA license based on his German license and understands this as pretty normal. Î got my first license at the age of 17 from the wonderful State of Texas and I was able to drive a pick up with automatic gear in a rural area without parking problems, traffic lights and German traffic. This little card was not worth a lot when coming back to Germany and I understand pretty well the reason why.
