That's the thing: I didn't take the test because I had no time for it before coming to Cambodia. I had a 125cc bike and did drive 500cc and 600cc bikes a little but only under school supervision - my intention is to take a test with a 600cc bike the next time I go back. (In summer, when driving at 60mph or 70 mph isn't QUITE as cold as in winter; I'm too cold bloodied for that.) The bike school told I was ready to take the test but I didn't feel too sure about passing the hazard perception: I think the hazards were more difficult to spot than in real life, for example I don't think I would think that the black spot in the distance is a speck on the video, nor I think it is fair to expect to see a cyclist through a truck, again in a distance though it hardly matters in that scenario, to get full points.)
Anyway, I know the traffic here (was driving for 3 years in PP and a outskirts) and that I can handle a 150cc bike but does that mean I have to take a test for even a 125cc bike here to be able to drive one because all I have is the UK car driving licence? That's the bit I am confused about.
I had a long gap without Internet so I don't remember what I said, but I wouldn't mind taking a bike test and getting a 10-year driving licence, but I'm in a hurry for getting a bike for commuting.
