Do you have to apply for a scooter licence? or can you use a uk driving licence?

The way most scooters are driven in TRNC you certainly don't need a certificate of sanity!

you have to take a scooter test and have your licence changed. You can do this near the Wednesday market where there are test places.

Welshie,you must take a test to legally ride a scooter,i took mine last week,you have to perform the following 1 1.Answer a mobile phone and speak while moving

2.Undercut every car you see

3.Go through every red light at traffic lights

Maddog, didn't you have to do the one where you overtake flat out at 40mph and then immediately turn left ?
