I'm looking at finally getting my Brazilian drivers license, and read on another thread that they take away your foreign one. (And a friend of ours had them do this to him). There is no way they are getting mine... it is not theirs to take away, since they did not issue it in the first place! Just wondering if that means I need to apply for a Brazilian driver's license as though I have not got another one, that is, in the normal process that a non-foreigner undergoes. Anyone done this?
