>>They had no drivers license. How did they get a rental car?
There’s an international driver’s license. You can get them at AAA. I would assume that they had that on them and that their Japanese driver’s license was at home.
I took some Japanese friends to Las Vegas for a vacation while I was still living in Japan. You have to watch them because they get in trouble.
...The driver did not present a driver’s license to the officers. While an incident of this nature normally would give rise to felony evading charges, Horne said the unique circumstances will likely result in misdemeanor charges of reckless driving and failure to yield, at the discretion of the Washington County Attorney.
County Attorney Brock Belnap had not yet received the case of consideration Monday when St. George News inquired. He could not speculate on any action he might take, he said.
