Driver licence in Chile
I was stopped last month while riding my KLR in southern Chile, but no problems. Chile is a little less fascist about motorcycle driving permits than the EU is. But I strongly recommend that you get at least one and preferably two international driving permits and never show your real license unless pressed for it. The reason is this -- if you are charged with a traffic offence, the carabineros will take your license and give you a receipt, and if it is a weekend you may have to hang around a couple of days before you can pay the fine and recover your licence.
