A license is a must these days if you drive or ride in Nepal,especially in city areas.There are frequent checkpoints in almost all busy roads and sometimes the traffic folks can be seen on the very next bend of your house!...so it's better to be geared up with valid license so the issue of legitimacy of rider and driver ceases completely.helping the traffic to perform his duty smoothly while being a responsible janta....It certainly is a giant task to get a license from the Yatayat Bivag as many get lost inside the office,not knowing what to do and many get hopeless just by watching the toil and ruckus that ensue while making one..but it's good to have one so you can enjoy the travel without thinking about traffic cops and all....I was very keen on making one no matter what it takes, a new one than what I have with me from my SLC years..and I went there, discuss and chit chat with office folks of Yatayat on how everyone should be carrying their license and how it helps the cops and country as a whole and then I think I got my brand new valid license in less than 3 minutes( guiness world record!!..lol)..well I need it bad and I got it good.
