It might seem a long time off yet but we are steadily moving towards a Community Driving License which will be valid in all member countries of the EEC.(The target date is January 1, 1986.) Mr David Howell will soon be laying draft regulation before Parliament outlining the Government’s thinking.
From the beginning of next year, anyone from an EEC country who comes here to live will be able to exchange his or her driving license for a British one-provided that apply within their first year of residence. The same provisions would apply to British people moving to other EEC countries. The regulations will not affect the present arrangement which enable visitors and new residents from other countries to drive here as ordinary license holders for up to a year on a foreign license.
Mr Howell plans minimum standards for health and driving tests which, lie says, provide a satisfactory basis for the exchange of license. Applicants for British licenses will have to meet the same medical standards as British drivers.
"We have taken special measures to safeguard standards as far as Heavy Good and Public Service Vehicles are concerned," said Mr Howell. "In addition to an appropriate license, applicants will have to supply proof of recent driving experience on suitable vehicles."
Mr Howell is seeking the comments of motoring and transport organizations on his proposals. But he has turned his back on one of the EEC Directive’s plans for a photograph to be included in a common format of license. "We regard the inclusion of a photograph as incompatible with our concept of lifetime licensing and will not be using photographs in the UK license."
Other changes affecting driving licenses are to start on October 1. From that date, anyone who takes out a provisional license or a first full license will pay a fee of £ 10 which will cover the conversion of the provisional to a full license after passing the driving test. A fee of £3 will be payable for a duplicate license and for an exchange license (when an additional group of licences was added). And they will run until the holder’s seventeenth birthday.
According to the Department of Transport, the average new driver takes out a provisional license twice before qualifying for a full license, at a total cost of Cc 9 under the current scales.
From October 1 also, provisional licenses to rise motor-bicycles (other than mopeds) will be limited to two years: anyone who has not passed both parts of the test within that period will have to wait one year before be can legally fide again. [br] Under the new scheme an EEC driver wanting to live and drive a bus/lorry in Britain would have to prove he/she ______.
选项
A、had driven a bus/lorry until recently
B、had driven a bus/lorry in their country
C、had recently driven a bus/lorry
D、had previously owned a bus/lorry
答案
C
解析
bus/lorry属于Public Service Vehicles之列,对此,文中第四段有说明,根据新规定,appropriate license 和 recent driving experience是任何想在英国生活和驾车的欧共体成员国居民所要具备的两个条件,故选C项。
