Getting a civilian driver's license for military members and their dependents is fairly easy as long as you have studied the information beforehand: USFK Pam 385-2, Guide to Safe Driving in Korea. The procedures are the same for dependents on Command Sponsorship as they are for the military member.
1. Go into the TMP (transportation motor pool) at CRC. Civilian/POV tests are administered Monday - Friday, at 1330. If you are E7 and above you only need to show up with your ID card and your regular state issued license. Soldiers junior to this need to be on Command Sponsored orders.
2. You will be given 2 written tests. The first is a 5 question test regarding Korean insurance laws and responsibilities. Then, you will take a 45 question written exam covering traffic laws and signs.
3. After the written test, you will be given a vision test, peripheral vision test, color blindness test, and reaction speed test to ensure you meet the minimum standards.
4. After successfully completing all of the above you'll be issued a certificate authorizing you to operate a POV in Korea.
Congratulations! You can now drive in Korea.
