What Year Is It?

Yes - we still have 1949 style goverment driving documents in the UK. Can you believe it? This is an International Driver Permit. The UK equivalent of a Berlitz translation dictionary or a chinese instruction manual for our driving license. It hasn't been changed for well over half a century and must be issued by a goverment authorised service; I'm so not kidding - check the dates on the picture.

I don't know if other countries have such gems, but I felt the need to share. Without a picture you'd never have believed me.
