I have had a full clean licence for around 35 years, and did teach my first wife to drive 30 years ago.
If she can have a provisional licence, how have other Husbands found teaching their filipina wife to drive has gone?
She has never driven in the Philippines.
Thanks for any thoughts,

Same here, like your wife, i also want to try driving here. Although i know how to drive coz i drive back home, i wanna know how to drive the other side. I have to get used to the gear the other side, not to mention the roads I;ve been here a month and i still get confused with the road. I always look at the wrong side when i cross the street and many times get to the driver's side of the car by mistake
I got an international driver's license with me from the philippines, and its good for a year. I'm not sure if this will be enough though or will i still need provisional driver's license to get to drive here or should i get one only after my international license expires within a year. I guess if your wife still have a few time left in the philipppines, maybe she can enrol in a driving school there for the basics, so when she gets here, you only have to do just hands on and let her practice driving.
