The license is no big deal.
But after you've been abroad for a while, living, like me, without keeping up a car insurance policy at home, you're in for an expensive reentry into the U.S. economy as far as getting insured again... |

Yeah...crap! I excited about blowing money on pointless insurance  I'm actually more scared/worried about the act of driving a car itself. I haven't touched a car in almost three years and I frankly don't miss it one bit. I'll be back home in California in a couple of months. Frankly I'm more scared about driving among my fellow Southern Californian drivers and tackling the congested freeways. How do you drive a car...I forgot!!! |

| It's like riding a bicycle but if you make a mistake, you or somebody else may end up dead. |

| Alberta is just as bad if not worse. I was living on campus so I didn't need to frive. Even though my driver's License was still valid Imy insurance went through the roof. All that crap they spewed about rates lowering when you hit 25 is BS too. They kept on goin up and up. |

Okay googled for it:
| Quote: |
Drivers In Ontario (Classes A, B, C, D, E, F, G and M)
If a driver's licence has been expired for more than one, but fewer than three years, you must visit a DriveTest centre to complete a vision test. If your licence has been expired for over three years but not more than 10 years, you have to reapply under Graduated Licensing at a DriveTest centre—the mandatory waiting periods are waived. If your licence has expired for over ten years, you have to reapply under graduated licensing at a DriveTest centre and serve all the mandatory waiting periods. |
So if your license is expired for under 3 years, it seems to say you just have to get a vision test and you can get your new license. If it's expired 3+-10 years, you have to do the road test but you're not required to abide by this new graduated system (which just bites). |
