What
you need to know about Hawaii Law and how it can affect
you !
DRIVER
LICENSES - The Misconceptions and the truth
!
The State of Hawaii is the ONLY STATE that does not have a mandatory license
changeover law.
This means that your MAINLAND DRIVER LICENSE IS VALID IN HAWAII and
may even be renewed from here.
If you are told that you must have a Hawaii driver's license, feel
free to let the person know that you know the truth about Hawaii
license law as it pertains to drivers
licenses. Never let anyone discriminate against you or intimidate
you into surrendering your mainland driver's license.
What else can happen when you change
your drivers licence…
When you change your driver's license, a lot more happens than just
changing the color of the plastic. Many governmental agencies are
made aware of the change you have made in your driver's license. For
instance, the State of Hawaii operates exclusively on the Social Security
system. If you obtain a Hawaii driver's license, the Social Security
Administration is made aware that you now have a Hawaii license and
it is possible that it could adversely affect you in the future. You
may even be called for jury duty even when you are not in Hawaii.
When you return to the mainland you may find that you have only fifteen
(15) days to obtain your home state's driver's license. Under new
national license laws, it is now impossible to hold more than
one driver's license. It is also true that your legal domicile may
be affected by the change in your driver's license and in the process,
your tax obligations may also be affected.
The bottom line is this....unless you
live in Hawaii on a full time basis, don't obtain a Hawaii driver's license specifically for lower golf course rates.
