The Queen doesn't need to have a Driving Licence

Vasquez · 4 Jul 2008 at 15:12

She has one not sure if she has to have it though as it is the queens highway.

Azza · 4 Jul 2008 at 15:14

Why would she want one any way if she needed one to drive?

She rolls in a freaking golden carriage!!

She merely says 'One is who one says one is, isn't one?'

PM needs one, but a passport is essentially the Queen giving her permission for you to leave the country. She can tell you herself that she's allowed so she doesn't need a passport.

Why do countries that don't have a monarchy use passports? Why don't they just use ID cards instead?

Von Smallhausen · 4 Jul 2008 at 15:38

I once caught the Queen spraying graffiti on a bridge over a canal that said ' Al Fayed smells ' and I couldn't do nothing about it.

I then asked if she was attending the cup final later that year and she said she wasn't. I then said ' Can I have your ticket then ? '

Pretty sure she doesnt need one, as thats a parliament law, and so, below her. Also can't be accused in court.

Nobody is above the law.

Because they make their own rules that could have any number of reasons behind them and aren't necessarily related to ours.

You can actually travel across much of Europe without a passport and just use an ID card instead.

I don't think Clarkson would invite her, he'd probably tell her off for jumping on the global warming bandwagon and driving a low emissions vehicle!

Err.. no, the point of a passport isn't so you can LEAVE your own country, it's so other countries will let you IN!

Well I guess it depends on the definition of "above the law", I was using it in the sense that the sovereign is immune to prosecution; so while she could be arrested, she could never to taken to court. It would likely end in an abdication I guess.
