Driver's license regulations change in San Carlos and Salta

In San Carlos, Costa Rica, the Road Safety Council (COSEVI) is expanding service hours for driver's license procedures. The local Road Education office will now offer both theoretical and practical driving exams until 7:00 p.m. on weekdays to accommodate workers and students. Additionally, theoretical exams will be available on Saturdays, though practical driving tests remain restricted to weekdays.

In Salta, Argentina, the municipality has extended the validity periods for private driver's licenses to reduce bureaucracy. For individuals up to age 65, the validity period has increased from five to eight years. For those aged 65 to 70, the period is now five years, and for those over 70, it is three years. Professional licenses are not affected by these changes, which also include the implementation of a digital national driver's license.
