Apparently you need an Alabama driver's license (or one from Japan) to drive in Alabama

Alabama arrests another foreign car executive under new immigration law | The Raw Story

The Guardian reports that Honda manager Ichiro Yada was arrested earlier this week at a checkpoint in Leeds, Alabama, despite being able to show police his passport, US work permit, and international driver’s license. He was not taken into custody, however, but was ticketed and released on a signature bond.

Yada’s international license was apparently not sufficient to satisfy the letter of the law, which required him to carry either an Alabama license or one issued by Japan.

Or you have to be nuts. Take your pick.
