Driving in South Korea

Here is a copy of the USFK Regulation 190-1 Motor Traffic Safety.

This link will route you to the Humphrey's web page for information on POV's. Here is some of the information. Also, on the Humphrey's link at the bottom are PDF links for directions. I hoe this helps.

Active Duty Military members with the rank of Sergeant First Class (SFC) or above will be authorized to register a POV in USFK.
The following personnel (and their US State licensed dependents age 18 or older) are authorized to obtain a POV License after passing the local written exam:
Personnel in Command Sponsored status accompanied with family.
Personnel in a joint domicile status authorized a POV on their orders.
Member of the U.S. Armed Forces in the rank of Sergeant First Class (E-7) or above.
Department of the Army civilians in the grade of GS-5 or above and USFK technical representatives.
Invited contractors* who have SOFA privileges.
Personnel who have a letter of approval by the USAG-Humphreys Commander for exception to policy.

* - Invited contractors, their employees (including Koreans) and dependents of contractors who operate a POV in the Republic of Korea must first obtain a valid ROK Driver's License. These personnel must object a valid USFK Form 134 EK (POV License) to operate their POV on a U.S. military installation and in Korea. To obtain a ROK driver's license, you should have a valid U.S. State driver's licenses and a letter of employment from CPO for civilian employees only.
