I spend about ten months each year in the Omo Valley area around Turmi and Jinka. There are many times that I wish I could drive myself either on a motorbike or a car. Does anyone know if Ethiopia has an age limit, on the older end, for driving in Ethiopia. Someone told me that you can not drive after age of 70 and I will turn 70 later this year. I hold a current drivers license from the state of Utah in the US and have had an international license in the past but not at this time. Any information would be helpful. I would really like to rent a motorbike and take a week or so just driving around the lower Omo Valley photographing all of the trees when they are in bloom. It is quite a hassle to keep asking another driver to stop every time I see a beautiful shot. It would be so much easier to just drive myself and pull off the road any time I saw anything worth photographing.
