I'd like to be able to hire a scooter/moped out in Vietnam, Laos, Thailand or Cambodia but I'd like to ensure I'm ensured and doing so legally. I'll be headed out there in a few months and currently hold a full UK driving licence. Whilst that seems to permit me to drive a moped up to 50cc, I doubt that will be enough... or convince any authorities who ask to look at my driving licence.
If I purchase an IDP (International Driving Permit) and take a CBT course (Compulsory Basic Training) course, would that allow me to legally rent and ride scooters out in the countries I will be travelling to? If not, what will?
