to ride scooter otherwise insurance won't cover you in an accident, god forbid.
You can only ride a scooter if you already have a bike license in your state.
You get your international license from RAC offices. cost $30Aus and your drivers license shows if you carry a bike license R or K on it.
My husband never leaves home without his international license and let me tell you he is always being pulled over to check his license and then if he has it, then they start picking on something else to get their money out of you. There a mob of corrupt b*stards.
Always carry your international license with you when riding a scooter.
However in saying this, its still the best form of transport especially now in Bali being so busy.
Don't risk riding one if you haven't got a license.
Cheers
